Bio/Research

Fahy's PhD involved long-term field work with North Korean refugee communities in Japan and South Korea gathering oral histories on the subjective experience of surviving the 1990s famine.

Prior to carrying out her PhD fieldwork, She received training on oral testimonies and survivor narrative elicitation. Her second book Dying for Rights: Putting North Korea’s Rights Abuses on the Record accounts for abuses committed by the North Korean state, domestically and internationally.

Her research demonstrates a social science expertise on East Asia on topics that are global and of critical security concern: refugees, migration, famine, food security, disease, incarceration, oral history, online media, populism, misinformation and state crimes. Her teaching covers topics in geographies including East Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.

Currently, she is writing a book about how state governments cover up rights abuses through video technology. The book complements global research on discriminative algorithms, computational propaganda, surveillance and privacy, and networked prejudice.
