Emeli LönnqvistPhD
About me
I am a PhD student at the Department of Criminology since 2021.
Research
My PhD project targets the Swedish remand prison institution and regime from a sociological, historical and comparative perspective. The project looks into how the Swedish remand practices have developed over time, as well as how the management of individuals held on remand and their rights have been negotiated and legitimized in the Swedish political context.
Teaching
I am, together with Christoffer Carlsson, in charge of the Department's introductory course in criminology on the undergraduate level. The topics I teach include critical criminology, conflict theory and theoretical perspectives on reactions against crime.
Cooperation
I work part-time for the Nordic Research Council in Criminology (NSfK) as the contact secretary for Sweden.
