Short presentation
My research has above all ought to shed fresh light, from various angles, on the cultural history of the 20th century Swedish export economy. I am particularly focused on interactions between state and organised business in export promotion, development aid and foreign policy. From this vantage point I engage with business history, marketing history, international history. I have also dabbled in the history of consumption.
Research
This text is not available in English, therefore the Swedish version is shown.
- I am presently involved in a project dealing with consumer culture in Sweden during World War II (funded by the Swedish Research Council), together with Klara Arnberg and Fia Sundevall (Stockholm University)
- I am also a member of the research progamme Neoliberalism in the Nordics (funded by Riksbankens jubileumsfond), led by Jenny Andersson (Uppsala University)
