Career

Lindsey Kingston’s career has centered on human rights scholarship, teaching, and institutional leadership. At Webster University, she serves as associate professor in the Department of History, Politics, and International Relations, and also directs the Institute for Human Rights and Humanitarian Studies. Her work emphasizes the idea of “functioning citizenship” — the notion that legal membership (citizenship) should connect to real relationships, protections, and responsibilities between individuals and the state.

She has edited and co-edited volumes like Human Rights in Higher Education: Institutional, Classroom, and Community Approaches to Teaching Social Justice (2018) and Statelessness, Governance, and the Problem of Citizenship (2021). Her monograph Fully Human: Personhood, Citizenship, and Rights (2019) investigates how marginalized groups—including stateless people, migrants, and those experiencing forms of exclusion—navigate systems that deny them full legal and social membership.

Kingston publishes in journals such as International Journal of Refugee Law, Journal of Human Rights Practice, Forced Migration Review, and others. Her expertise is frequently sought in forums relating to refugees, statelessness, migration policies, and human rights education. Her institutional leadership also involves mentoring, curriculum development, and organizing human rights scholarship and public engagement.
