Biography

Anne Kirstine Rønn is a Visiting Fellow at the LSE Middle East Centre, researching opposition movements in ethno-religiously divided societies, with a particular focus on Lebanon and Iraq. Her PhD in Political Science from Aarhus University investigated the challenges faced by protesters during Lebanon’s 2019 October Uprising as they sought to build solidarity among citizens across sects, class, and geographical divides. Currently, her postdoctoral research explores Lebanese and Iraqi labor movements and examines potential oppositional forces against the ruling elites in these countries. Specifically, she investigates the dynamics of trade unions and alternative forms of labor mobilization in the aftermath of the 2019 uprisings.
