My research interests are in the intersection between intellectual history, philosophy and science studies. I have been visiting professor longer periods at Berkeley University, and invited guest professor in Norway, Denmark, France, United Kingdom, Germany,US, Japan, Portugal and Spain. In addition, I have been initiating and running Lund University Seminar in Science and Technology Studies with focus on knowledge production in the 21th century Europe.
Recently I have commenced a new project “Rethinking the Standards Accounts of Science and Democracy,” Focus is on the tension between expert knowledge and political citizen influence which have been present since the Enlightenment when the sciences became building blocks in the Western modernity. In the project’s initial phase the European political discussion before 1980 about the autonomy of the sciences is examined as a way to understand current ideas of post democracy and post science.
