Biography

Ann-Carita Evaldsson is a distinguished professor at Uppsala University specializing in Communication Studies. Her research focuses on children's social life, peer language socialization, and emotional and moral engagements in diverse cultural and multilingual educational settings. Evaldsson utilizes video ethnographies and multimodal interactional analysis to explore complex social interactions among children. Her academic work delves into identity construction related to gender, ethnicity, and social class, and examines how these identities manifest in social contexts. She leads the CLIP project, which investigates childhood, learning, and identity through interactional practices. The study of peer language socialization is central to her work, particularly how children navigate identity through interactions with their peers in multiethnic environments. Evaldsson's methodological interests include everyday language practices and the interplay between talk and bodily actions in social settings, providing insight into the linguistic and emotional dimensions of childhood interaction.
