Current research
My dissertation focus on political participation, especially in the form of social movements mobilising against mineral extraction in Sweden. The aim of the thesis is to better understand how social movements interpret their opportunities to create societal change and participate in the political system. In my work I apply various theories about the socio-political contexts of movements, as well as frame analysis.
