Oma esittely

I am a docent in political science, and a researcher and research project leader on a multidisciplinary research project.

My research focuses on explorative multidisciplinary communication, information, media, identity, narratives, human rights, and power relations research. 

Some specific areas of interest are information operations, selective realities, political credibility and legitimacy, framing and agenda setting/vetting of various media and actors, human rights cases, user-based design of digital interactive technologies, and power relations in political and social decision-making.
