معرفی
Hans Agné is a Professor in the Department of Political Science at Stockholm University. His academic career spans over two decades with positions including Research Fellow and Lecturer at Stockholm University since July 2005, Associate Research Fellow at the Swedish Institute of International Affairs, and various teaching and research roles dating back to 1999.
His educational background includes a Doctorate in Philosophy in Political Science from Stockholm University (2004), an M.A. in Political Science from Uppsala University (1998), and studies in French Literature and Writing at Sorbonne College of French Civilisation in Paris (1995-96). He has been affiliated with numerous prestigious institutions including Lund University, Uppsala University, Sorbonne University, Leeds University, London School of Economics, Catania University, Stellenbosch University, WZB Berlin Social Science Center, and Oxford University.
Agne's research centers on democracy in multiple dimensions - its meaning, value, boundaries, institutions, and causes and effects, particularly beyond the state and in contexts where state power is changing. His work spans political theory, comparative politics, international relations, and international political economy, with extensions into European politics, civil society actors in global governance, democracy promotion, theories of international recognition, emotions in international politics, and problem-solving capacities of international institutions.
His recent publications reveal a consistent focus on legitimacy in global governance, democratism as an explanatory approach to international politics, and the transformation of democracy in a globalized world. His scholarly output demonstrates methodological diversity across theoretical, comparative, and empirical approaches to understanding political phenomena at multiple levels of analysis.
Agne currently leads several major research projects including 'The transformation of democracy: new facts and explanations,' 'Legitimacy in Global Governance,' 'The Founding of Legitimate States,' 'Democracy Beyond the Nation State,' and 'The Design of International Institutions,' funded by organizations such as the European Research Council, Swedish Research Council, and Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation.
