Interests
Read more about my interests in research.
The dissertation "The Swedish Sports Hero" analyses the media stories of five of Sweden's greatest and most celebrated sports stars of all time: Harry Persson, Ingemar Johansson, Björn Borg, Ingemar Stenmark and Carolina Klüft. They were stars in different sports in different eras and what they have in common is that they were national heroes.
I am also a participant in the research group Research in Education & Movement Culture, which is an interdisciplinary research group that conducts research in the humanities and social sciences on movement, culture and society.
