Biography
Prof Dibyesh Anand joined University of Westminster in 2007 as a Reader (Associate Professor for those used to the non-British system) in International Relations. He moved from University of Bath where he was a lecturer. He did my PhD (1998-2002) from the Department of Politics at University of Bristol and the topic was related to Western representations of Tibet and its political and cultural significance. He have never been comfortable within a discipline. While my MA was in International Law and Politics at the University of Hull (1997-1998), the Bachelors was in History from St Stephen's College, University of Delhi. He could not have pursued my Masters and PhD without scholarships. While the MA was sponsored by British Chevening scholarship, the PhD was made possible due to University of Bristol and Overseas Research Scholarships.
