Daniel's research focuses on the intersection between international law and media law.  His current scholarship examines three interrelated topics: infrastructure and international law, information and international law, and social media governance.  He is especially interested in the connections between media and human rights, with a focus on media freedom and the role of digital media.  He is involved in a longer term project on international law and materiality with Associate Professor Jessie Hohmann of UTS Faculty of Law.
