Dr. Smith’s research explores the conceptualization of civil conflict through a multidisciplinary lens, integrating insights from History, Political Science, Psychology, and Social Sciences. His work addresses intersections with race, class, gender, political parties, and civil violence. His current book project reinterprets Machiavelli’s theories to analyze modern political conflicts where consensus is elusive.
Recent publications reflect his engagement with Machiavelli’s contributions to civil conflict theory and historical analyses of moral-political tensions in figures like Abraham Lincoln and John Brown. His interdisciplinary approach bridges theoretical and empirical studies.
