Research summary


My primary research focus is on 20th century Scandinavian and Baltic political history, with a particular interest in inter-Nordic and inter-regional contacts and cooperation in the Baltic Sea area. I am also interested in contemporary European, Scandinavian and Baltic politics (especially foreign and security policy).

I also have an academic side-interest in Medieval Old Norse-Icelandic literature and culture.

In past, I have also taught modules relating to Medieval Studies, including overview courses in Old Norse literature, and various other subejcts in the field of Scandinavian culture, history, literature and languages.
