I am an associate professor at the Department of Politics and Society at the University of Aalborg, Denmark.

I have conducted studies on the right-wing populism in Denmark, Italy and Austria, recently also considering the mainstream parties’ counter-strategies at national and EU level, the role of Islam in the West and more broadly the civil society responses to growing anti-immigration, and populist ethno-nationalism.
