Dr Karayiannides specializes in the history of ideas about development, examining how anthropological, sociological, and economic perspectives on sub-Saharan African societies shaped French and British New Left thinkers. His research reveals how these thinkers integrated migrant labor and racial discrimination into Marxist frameworks while pioneering early decolonial thought. Current projects investigate Africa's marginalization in Leftist comparative theory since the 1980s and its impact on globalization discourse, alongside the influence of 20th-century development paradigms on contemporary climate emergency approaches. His work spans political theory, decolonial studies, and the historical evolution of corruption discourses.
