Forskningsområden

Mitt forskningsintresse ligger i den politiska kommunikationens utveckling i den moderna demokratin. Inom ramen för detta ligger mitt främsta fokus på strategisk politisk kommunikation tex i politiska kampanjer.
I min forskning har jag även studerat mediernas rapportering om politik samt mediernas effekter och inflytande i opinionsbildning.
