Thomas Chevalier

About

Thomas Chevalier is a doctoral researcher at the Brussels School of International Studies (BSIS) – University of Kent, where he began his Ph.D. studies in September 2019. He is the recipient of a Kent Vice Chancellor’s Research Scholarship.

In his research, Thomas focuses on the role of imaginaries in France and US space politics. He explores how imaginaries inform state knowledge and militarism, and how they shape states’ technopolitical identities and expectations about world politics’ possible futures. Overall, he aims to capture the interplay between politics, science and technology (S&T), and imagination—and their relationship with state power and war.

Thomas holds a master’s degree in Political Science from the Université Libre de Bruxelles (Free University of Brussels, Belgium), a master’s degree in Geopolitics and International Relations from Science Po Toulouse (France), and a master’s degree in Management and Business Administration from NEOMA Business School France. He has prior professional experience as a Sales Executive, Consultant, and Key Account Manager in the Information Technology industry, and has worked with clients in the Public sector.
