PhD Candidate

Sociology

 

Main research areas:

  • Ethnic and religious identity formation in Migration Contexts
  • Welfare and social policy
  • Development in the Global South
  • Qualitative Methods


Current research: 

I am currently researching identity formations and everyday lives of Muslims in Sweden. I am interested in understanding how the ‘Muslim’ identity is articulated when intergenerational co-histories interact with the Swedish secular societal context and how this (Muslim) identity is negotiated and navigated between and across various levels of interactions i.e. Individual (micro), family, education and labour market (meso) and state (macro).
