Kort om
Jeg er statsviter og er interessert i forholdet mellom demokrati og byråkrati, ekspertise, kunnskap, og markeder. Jeg forsker på demokratisk legitimitet og delegering, markedsstyring, grensekontroll og asyl, og tilnærmer meg disse temaene gjennom både normativ politisk teori og empiriske metoder.
