Professor Hague is a cultural and urban geographer with interests in Confederate commemoration, white racial identities, gentrification and urban activism, and the cultural relationships between Scotland and America. His work has examined neo-Confederate nationalism and political appropriation of Celtic identities, in particular focusing on the separatist organization, the League of the South, founded in Alabama in 1994. Dr. Hague regularly engages in community-based research and collaboration with local organizations and he explores how Chicago's cultural and urban landscapes have developed historically and are continuing to change. Director of the Student Urban Research Corps which partners students with community organizations on projects, Dr. Hague worked closely with the Pilsen Alliance between 2004-2019 and continues to partner with organizations including the Chicago Furniture Bank and KEEN Chicago. He was received the Barbara A. Holland Scholar-Administrator Award from the Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities (CUMU) in 2019.
