Research
Alexander Paulsson (PhD) teaches and writes about organizations, the politics of ecology, and the making and consequences of science and technology. Being trained in the fields of history, politics and business, he combines the study of the urban environment, administrative devices and ecological processes with the history of economic and political concepts.
He is currently engaged in two larger research projects: one is looking at how complementary currencies are designed to achieve socioecological transitions (www.specialpurposemoney.com) while the other is exploring world-making post-growth welfare societies.
Besides these two projects, he is also involved in research projects on mobility, technology, and infrastructure maintenance. For four years, he worked at The Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI) and its unit Mobility, Actors, and Planning Processes.
He is one of the co-founders of the Institute for Degrowth Studies, affiliated with K2, The Swedish Knolwedge Center for Public Transport and collaborating with the explorative architecture firm Scapeous.
