Triadafilopoulos, Phil
Phil Triadafilopoulos is Professor of Political Science at the University of Toronto and teaches at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy, where he is Acting Director of the Harney Program in Ethnic, Immigration and Pluralism Studies. He conducts research in the areas of immigration and citizenship policy in Europe and North America. He is especially interested in political debates over the accommodation of new religious minorities in industrialized liberal democracies (especially as regards Muslim religious communities in Germany and Canada), the response of political parties to electorates transformed by immigration, and industrialized democracies’ simultaneous opening to selected economic migrants and closure to asylum seekers and other ‘irregular’ migrants. He also has an interest in politics in Greece, especially as regards immigration and citizenship.
He enjoys speaking to journalists and others interested in these issues.
