Dr. ANDERS LinDE-LAURSEN
Linde-Laursen's research matter ranges from intimate details of everyday life such as dishwashing to discursive understandings of what "belonging" means. Studying cultural continuity and change, he demonstrates how peoples' feelings and experiences both shape and are shaped by the modern contexts in which they live. Currently he studies such processes in two sites (the Øresund Region in Scandinavia and a small town, Solvang, in California) where he is concerned with how people understand themselves in relation to different and changing groups of others as well as with how such understandings of national and ethnic differences are practiced and carry political implications. Linde-Laursen has authored three books, edited five published volumes, and written many book chapters and articles.
