Fathers and children in child health care: an ethnographic study of institutional practices (https://www.su.se/english/research/research-projects/fathers-and-children-in-child-health-care-an-ethnographic-study-of-institutional-practices); PI: Camilla Rindstedt.

Children and influencers, see: www.mediemyndigheten.se

Happiness, consumption and childhood; see, for example: Family theme parks, happiness and children’s consumption: From roller-coasters to Pippi Longstocking. 

With an interdisciplinary background (cultural studies and sociology), I am inspired by work in STS, critical theory, and the sociology of childhood.
