Alistair commenced the Macquarie University Research Fellowship (MQRF) in January 2023. His early career research focuses on housing, planning, and urban development. Alistair is interested in the political economic dynamics of housing in cities. His doctoral research examined the politics of public housing policy in Australia, particularly the redevelopment of the Waterloo estate. Subsequent research has spanned the private rental sector, urban regeneration, and emerging trends in urban governance and planning. Alistair’s current MQRF project is titled ‘The Politics of Housing Data’, which involves critical analysis of the ways contemporary housing problems are quantified and how that data is used to frame the housing crisis. Alistair is also involved in teaching various courses, including Theory and Methods in Geography and Planning, Thinking Space, and Urban Dynamics.
