About

I am Associate Professor (Docent) and work on issues spanning development studies, comparative politics and peace research. I currently lead two large research projects exploring Why Evictions Turn Violent and The Continuation of Conflict-related Violence in Postwar Cities. Other current research investigates police-civil society interactions (Kenya and Sweden); land rights and climate resilience strategies (Kenya); and the social networks of urban mediators (Liberia).
