Kim
Strandberg
Ph.D. in political
science since late 2006 at the department of social sciences at the Åbo Akademi University Vasa.
Postdoctoral researcher
(Academy of Finland) until end of 2013.
My research mainly
focuses on politics on the internet. My dissertation titled “Parties, Candidates and Citizens On-Line: Studies
of Politics on the Internet” focused on how both political actors and
citizens use the internet for political purposes and what consequences this
activity might have for politics in general in modern representative
democracies.
