I joined Liverpool John Moores University as a Senior Lecturer in US History and International Relations in April 2014. I currently run the International Relations and Politics discipline in the School of Humanities and Social Science.
Prior to Liverpool John Moores, I was a Senior Lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University working as the Course Convenor for the MA in International Relations. Prior to that, I worked as a Lecturer in US Politics at the School of Advanced Study, University of London where I taught on the MA in Understanding and Securing Human Rights at the Institute of Commonwealth Studies. I was also the principal investigator for two US-based research projects on UK-US Relations In An Age Of Global War 1939-1945, which examined official UK perspectives towards the US, and examined Women and US Foreign Policy, where I interviewed predominantly women involved, and affected by US foreign policy. I am active member of the British International Studies Association’s (BISA) US Foreign Policy working group.
I am currently working on two research projects: 1) examining contemporary US democracy efforts during the Arab Spring, and 2) examining sovereignty disputes between the US and the US over certain Pacific Islands during and after WWII. I am also an active member of the British International Studies Association US Foreign Policy working group https://usfpgroup.org/).
If you want to have a conversation about global issues, how we understand them at the personal level, and what we can do about changing the world towards making it safer for all, then contact me.

Books by Matthew Alan Hill
The world of American politics can be bewildering to anyone not born and bred in the U.S.A. This plain-English guide is perfect whether you are a student or simply fascinated by the world's most powerful democracy. From the electoral process to 'special relationships', you discover all you need to know with American Politics For Dummies.
The author critically examines US foreign policy in a theoretical and historical context, focusing on the United States Agency for International Development’s (USAID) democracy assistance. It demonstrates that if liberal democracy is the end-goal of USAID’s strategy then the theoretical and practical limitations of transition-inspired assistance will impede the attainment of this goal.
In examining US democracy promotion in Bosnia, Afghanistan and Iraq during the Clinton and Bush administrations, the book concludes by considering its future during the Obama administration.
