Person

I am a retired associate professor of history, but still active as a scholar. In my PhD thesis I investigated power relations at the rental market in late 19th and early 20th century Malmö. Since then I have been linked to the Dept. of History in various shapes and to different extent - as a teacher, an assistant professor, a researcher and a director at the Center for Labor History in Landskrona. As a teacher I have taught in different fields, such as social-, labor-, urban- and environmental history. In 2009-2013 I was also employed in a research project financed by the Swedish Research Council on xenophobia and labor movement. In 2014 I was a visiting lecturer at the Dept. of Scandinavian Studies, University of Washington. In recent years I have also been involved in a research project about truck drivers´professional culture. My current research deals with Swedish immigrants in the early 1900s, who were deported back to Sweden by the US authorities
