96.6 million SEK to research in social sciences and humanities (in Swedish)
Swedish Research Council grant to expert in public international law
In his research application he states that the project will be pursued within the framework of the Stockholm Center on Global Governance, SCGG "since it directly investigates a method of 'contestation' and also maps the discussion on some important global issues", adding that he "will also take advantage of the local research environment at the law department, in particular the Stockholm Centre for International Law and Justice, the Swedish Law and Informatics Research Institute."
He plans to write a book of approximately 200-250 pages and some chapters may also be published in journal article form.
