Biography

Frida Boräng is Professor at the University of Gothenburg with a research focus on immigration policy through a comparative historical perspective. Her work delves into migrant integration, the role of interest groups in advocacy, and environmental governance. Currently, she leads several research projects that address critical societal concerns such as the political integration of immigrants, the impact of anti-immigrant sentiments in ethnic neighborhoods, and the financing of climate adaptation in response to changing environmental conditions. With funding from both the Swedish Research Council and the European Union's Horizon Europe programme, her projects aim to provide insights into how societal dynamics influence successful integration and to understand the implications of political corruption in digital societies. Alongside her research, she is also actively involved in teaching various courses including Introduction to Political Science Analysis and supervising Master's theses, offering students a robust academic grounding in political science.
