Vlad Glaveanu is a social and cultural psychologist with an interest in creativity and especially the relationship between creativity and culture. His doctoral research at the Institute of Social Psychology, LSE, develops a cultural psychological approach to folk art and explores creativity evaluations, practices and the development of creative craftwork in both urban and rural communities. The thesis offers a critique of individualistic and cognitive accounts of the phenomenon, specific for mainstream creativity research, and aims to unpack the intrinsically cultural dynamic of creative activity and its relation to tradition and a social and material environment. In doing so several methodological innovations are introduced, among them the use of subjective cameras for capturing microgenetic aspects of novelty emergence in craft.

Other related research interests include: group and collaborative creativity, children's creative expression, and cultural differences in the representation and expression of creativity. General interests include as well pragmatism, the theory of social representations, qualitative methodologies, and the relation between psychology and history.

Vlad Glaveanu is also Editor of Europe's Journal of Psychology (EJOP), a peer-reviewed open-access journal, published quarterly, featuring original studies in all fields of psychology and open to scholars, practitioners and graduate students.
