Biography

Per Jansson is an Associate Professor at Linköping University specializing in the development of international norms and institutions, as well as European foreign and security policy. His research emphasizes the analysis of international power dynamics and the role of institutions in shaping meaningful political phenomena. He coordinates the master’s programme in International and European Relations and has a significant interest in the legitimacy of international institutions, which is explored through his project 'Conceptions of State Development and International Norms: Arbitration in the Modern State System,' funded by the Swedish Foundation for Humanities and Social Sciences.
