Alexandr Burilkov completed his PhD on maritime security in the Western Pacific and the Persian Gulf at the University of Hamburg in 2017. He was previously a junior research fellow at the GIGA Hamburg. His research focuses on innovation in military strategy, the role of non-state proxy groups in foreign policy, and the security environment in the Western Pacific and the post-Soviet space; recently he has completed “Russian Maritime Strategy since the Ukrainian Crisis”, a chapter in an upcoming two-part volume on maritime security to be published by Routledge. He also participates in research focused on the quantitative analysis of the processes of influence and diffusion in regional organizations, especially using spatial and temporal methods; his most recent work in this theme, coathored with Tobias Lenz, is “Institutional pioneers in world politics: Regional institution building and the influence of the European Union” (EJIR 2016).
