Personal profile
Description of research and teaching
I am a postdoctoral researcher at the Centre for Nordic Studies, University of Helsinki. Trained as a political historian I have studied political and economic thought in Finland and Sweden, especially the ideas of applying democracy to the economy and working life. Beginning from spring 2020, I am working in the project Neoliberalism in the Nordics led by Professor Jenny Andersson in Uppsala University and financed by Riksbankens Jublieumsfond.
My research interests include:
- intellectual and conceptual history
- history of political ideologies
- history and theory of democracy
- history of economics and economic policy
- history of working life and labour market relations
- theory and methodology of historiography
- history of the Nordic countries
I have taught undergraduate courses and given lectures on democracy and labour market relations in the Nordic countries.
