Biography
" My research lies within the field of 20th century élite studies, business history, and the development of relations between business and politics. Applying aspects of Social Networks Analysis, I am particularly interested in Danish industry and business elite’s reactions to the authoritarian trends of the inter-war years, the economic crisis of the 1930es, and the increasing political significance of the engineer. I like to see my research as an ongoing attempt at reinterpreting 20th century Danish history that includes the German occupation in a longer time perspective and attempts to supply Danish national history writing with a transnational perspective" c
