Biography

Frida Buhre is an Associate Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University, specializing in Rhetoric. Her research interests include contemporary rhetoric, climate change, and the use of imaginaries in political discourse. In her current book project, she emphasizes the significance of anachronisms in political rhetoric. Frida's dissertation focuses on the interplay of politics, memory, and the philosophical perspectives of Hannah Arendt. She co-founded the International Rhetoric Workshop and has actively participated in media discussions around rhetoric. Frida's recent research projects examine youth climate mobilization in Sweden, particularly the roles of young activists in environmental governance.
