Current Research
My main research interest is the excluding and integrating effects of legal orders. I am interested in the exclusion of groups of the populations as it relates to criminal law, social control and social justice, and the responses and resistance to exclusion.
I am currently working on the NordForsk project Transformative Environmental Justice (EnJustice) with a focus on the consequences of and resistance to the green transition, from a decolonial perspective.
