Presentation
Min forskningsprofil är inriktad mot det skogspolitiska området med särskilt fokus på kunskap/makt. Jag är särskilt intresserad av hur olika diskurser formar och formas av människors syn på skogen och dess användning, politiska agendor, samt vilka som deltar/inte deltar i skogsförvaltning och beslutsfattande på olika nivåer i samhället. I min avhandling undersökte jag hur klimatpolitiska diskurser formar synen på tropisk respektive boreal skog.
