Current Research
Jana Wrange's current project aims at producing new knowledge and better understanding of the international preconditions to develop, strengthen and direct Sweden’s civil defence. The study focuses on how these preconditions have been affected by societal processes of change on the international level, directing attention to how the government’s bi- and multilateral interaction with other countries and in international forums affects the decision-making capacity, scope of action and organization of the state.
