About Publications Teaching Media

About

I am a professor of sociology. Currently I work mostly with topics that concern organizations and work. I have a background as a civil engineer in geosciences and a PhD in social anthropology.

Research interests:
-Safety, social safety, risk
-Technology and work in high-tech contexts
-Digitalisation (of society and organisations) and big data
-Epistemology and representation, particularly I am interested in measurement, counting and standardization as organizational and cultural processes
-Public governance, cross-sectoral cooperation, regulation and deregulation
-Health, care and social work (child welfare)

I have research experience from a large number of private and public organizations and sectors in Norwegian working life. My research is interdisciplinary, and has been published in journals within a wide range of disciplines. A common thread is the interest in representation, standardization and work as it unfolds in concrete contexts and a qualitative, often practice-oriented approach.
