Laust Lund Elbek is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Aalborg University, affiliated with the Department of Politics and Society under the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities. His work bridges political science, social policy, and anthropology, focusing on security dynamics, welfare state intersections, and political affect in Scandinavian contexts.
Research Interests: Elbek explores the emotional and social dimensions of security policies, particularly in the Scandinavian welfare state. His projects, such as PROTEMO: Emotional Dynamics of Protective Policies in an Age of Insecurity, examine how political debates and state projects shape perceptions of safety and inequality. His fingerprint highlights keywords like Nostalgia, Political Affect, and International Relations, reflecting a multidisciplinary approach to contemporary governance challenges.
Recent Publications analyze topics including linguistic context in policy ordering, emotional registers in political discourse, and refugee center dynamics in Denmark. His 2024 anthology Unequal Security: Welfare, Crime and Social Inequality synthesizes these themes, offering a comparative lens on the interplay between welfare systems and security paradigms.
