Description of work:

I have conducted research on the process of institutional reform in Sri
Lankan telecommunications, published in Asian Journal of Communication,
1993. This work can be extended to institutional reform in other parts of
government, particularly agencies providing infrastructure, on one hand and
to media industries on the other. In collaboration with Gamini Keerawella,
I have written on contemporary Sri Lankan political developments, including
the role of the media. I was one of the founders of the Institute for
International Research, a Peradeniya-based collective of university
researchers.
