I am professor in history and working as a researcher at the Department of History. In my research, I have especially devoted myself to Nordic Catholic cultural history in the 19th and 20th century, and I have participated in several major research project as ´for example ’Religious transitions - individual, community, society’ and ’Churches and European Integration’. I have led the research projects "The female monastic movement in Scandinavia. A female counter-culture in modern society", which was completed in 2004, and ’Christian manliness - a paradox of modernity: Men and religion in a North European context 1840-1940’, which has resulted in several publications, and reserach networks on ’Anti-Catholicism and anticlericalism in modern society in a transnational perspective. In connection with my research, I have developed several thematic courses on the interplay between politics, religion, gender and society.
