Teaching

I’ve been teaching at university level since 1992. Subjects include:

  • Swedish politics
  • Danish politics
  • Comparative politics
  • Policy analysis and social policy
  • Political theory
  • Methods, especially qualitative methods
  • Supervision of BA and MA theses

Personal Research Grants

  • 1994: Carlsbergfondet – 3-year scholarship plus overhead for a project about the politician K.K. Steincke and his impact on Danish social policy during the inter-war era

Besides maintaining this blog in WordPress, I’ve made websites and learning environments using Mediawiki, PingPong, Rapid Weaver and even hand-coded html with a bit of css. When I’m in the mood, I can get Microsoft Frontpage to produce standards-compliant pages.

On occasions, I’ve reviewed manuscripts submitted to Scandinavian Political Studies, Local Government Studies and European Journal of Political Research. I have also reviewed manuscript proposals for Routledge.
