I work together with Olle Torpman, Göran Duus-Otterström and Kirsti Jylhä on the research project Conservative Climate Justice for a Sustainable Transformation in which we will examine the compatibility between conservative political ideology and principles of climate justice. I also work as a senior lecturer in human rights at Lund University and am the research leader for the project A Just Transition to a Sustainable Municipality.
My research primarily focuses on justice aspects of climate policy, as well as more general philosophical issues within political philosophy such as intergenerational justice, human rights, and empirically grounded methods in normative political theory.
