Andrew D. Devenney is a
recent graduate of the CMU History Department's Joint
Ph.D. program in Transnational and Comparative History.
As part of the program, he has spent a year at the
University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland, and in
2004-2005 was at Dublin City University in Dublin,
Ireland, as a Fulbright Fellow. He is spending the
2007-2008 academic year in residence in the Department's
Center for Transnational and Comparative History as a
postdoctoral research fellow.
Research and Teaching Interests
Dr. Devenney's wider research interests center on
studying the political, economic, and social processes
of European integration in a transnational and
comparative perspective, with a current focus on
domestic responses to European integration in the British Isles. He is
currently working on a book manuscript, entitled
European Integration and the British Isles: Becoming
European in England, Scotland, and Ireland, 1961-1975,
that is a revision of his doctoral dissertation.
Additionally, Dr. Devenney is currently in the
preliminary stages of a new project on the spatial
history of the European Union (EU), which is
investigating how European political and economic
integration has altered the use, function, organization,
and meaning of physical and social spaces in Europe
since 1945.
In Spring 2008, Dr.
Devenney will be offering a course on modern British
history (HST 351: Britain since 1689).
