PhD project

For my PhD, in a collaborative project with Jagiellonian University in Cracow, I investigate what drives some people to withdraw and others to engage in various forms of political engagement (e.g., normative, non-normative, extreme engagement) for the climate and for gender equality in Norway and Poland through a mixed-methods approach.

Furthermore, I investigate the drivers behind the anti-corona-measures and the counter-protest movements in Germany through a cultural-historical lens.
