Short presentation
My current research is focused on four substantive areas in the housing and urban development field: Residential segregation, Intra-urban migration, urban policy, and economic and social integration of immigrants.
Some of my ongoing projects are conducted in cooperation with geographers, sociologists and political scientists and have a European dimension. The Swedish studies deal primarily with processes taking place in the larger metropolitan regions of Sweden: Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö.
