RESEARCH INTERESTS

My main research interests are within the fields of global environmental politics, transnational environmental governance, climate and energy politics, and nature protection, land-use and forest governance. Current research areas include EU and Norwegian climate and energy politics, wind power, solar power and other renewables, and land-use, forest, and aquaculture politics in Norway. Much of my earlier work has examined the emergence, evolution and effects of nonstate governance and public-private governance interactions across economic sectors.
