Marina Veličković is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow. Her project 'Law as Violence: Transitions Towards Inequality' explores the role of international organisations and financial institutions in the process of post-socialist transition in Bosnia and Herzegovina. She is particularly interested in the role of discourse in legitimating and (re)producing structures of violence and disenfranchisement.
Marina earned her PhD from the University of Cambridge in 2021, where she was a recipient of the Gates Cambridge Scholarship. Her thesis explored how the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia constructed historical narratives about the causes and contours of the conflict in Bosnia. Before embarking on her PhD Marina worked as a researcher and consultant for a number of human rights NGOs both in Bosnia and in the UK. She holds an LLM in Public International Law from the London School of Economics and Political Science and an LLB from the University of Bristol.
