Research

Rose's research uses Northern Ireland as a case study to demonstrate how women are used in media for political motives. Her work centres around gender, conflict and the press with a particular focus on the Northern Ireland Troubles. Rose is interested in representations of women and her thesis assesses the role of misogynistic and sexualised press and rhetoric in exacerbating conflict.
