Christoph Schuck (*1976) is a Professor of Political Science in the Department of Philosophy and Political Science and currently Dean of the Faculty of Humanities and Theology at TU Dortmund University. His research concentrates on both International Relations (such as security studies, transnational terrorism, military interventions, crisis prevention and peace consolidation) and Political Theory (such as theories of Islamism, theories of democracy).
Christoph Schuck has been a Visiting Researcher at Yale University, New Haven, CT (USA), Parahyangan Catholic University Bandung (Indonesia), the University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) and the University of Lucerne (Switzerland). He is the author of several books and many articles, including “A Conceptual Framework of Sunni Islamism” (Politics, Religion & Ideology), “Peacebuilding through Militant Islamist Disengagement: conclusions drawn from the case of Al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya in Egypt” (Peacebuilding), The Concept of Human Security Revisited: Theoretical and Empirical Problems of a Post-Cold War Security Approach (Nomos), and, together with Steve Schlegel, “For Still by Policy the World is Ruled? On the Decreasing Significance of Critical Security Studies/the Welsh School in IR” (Zeitschrift für Internationale Beziehungen, zib, published in German).
From 1996 to 2001, Christoph Schuck studied Social Sciences (focus: developing countries) and Geography at Gießen University (Germany) and the University of Tampere (Finland), completing his Ph.D. as a DAAD-scholarship-holder at Gießen University with a thesis on Indonesia’s democratic transition in 2003. In the following years, he became a DFG Postdoctoral Research Fellow and directed several projects for Germany’s Federal Foreign Office to support Indonesia’s road to democracy. In 2008, he completed his habilitation on transnational Islamism, followed by an interim professorship in International Relations at the University of Jena. In 2009, Christoph Schuck became an Associate Professor and in 2013, a Full Professor of Political Science at TU Dortmund University. In the same year, he was admitted to the Global Young Faculty (GYF) of the Mercator Foundation.
