Adélie Chevée

A graduate in European Affairs from Sciences Po Paris, and in International Relations form Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, Adélie Chevée achieved an MPhil thesis on the political activism of Syrian refugees in Lebanon, at Oxford University. Drawing on the work of French philosopher Jacques Rancière, she explored how a politically qualified subject is articulated in light of experiences of exile, throughout a study of the discourse of Syrian refugee communities in Lebanon between 2011 and 2014. Since 2015, Adélie is a PhD candidate in politics and international studies at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS). Her doctoral research focuses on the evolution of the Syrian intellectual field since 2011, with a particular focus on Beirut and Istanbul. During her field research (2016-2017), she was a doctoral fellow at the Orient Institut Beirut and the Institut Francais d'Etudes Anatoliennes in Istanbul.
