Oscar Pripp serves as Associate Professor and Senior Lecturer at Uppsala University's Department of Cultural Anthropology and Ethnology, where he also holds the position of director of studies for undergraduate education. His academic work bridges ethnology and practical diversity initiatives across Swedish cultural institutions.
His research centers on diversity and migration, with recent emphasis on cultural sector institutions and ethnic/national association-based music practices. Key thematic threads include intercultural relations, diaspora communities, and cultural production as social inclusion, particularly examining Kurdish and West African diasporic musical expressions. His methodological approach combines ethnographic fieldwork with critical analysis of diversity policies.
Analysis of his 15 most recent publications reveals consistent focus on cultural production in migrant associations (2016-2024), polarization dynamics (2022), and musical practices as identity markers (2018-2020). The work demonstrates interdisciplinary engagement across anthropology, sociology, and ethnomusicology, with growing attention to ethical dimensions of artistic citizenship (2024).
Pripp actively collaborates with cultural institutions and schools on diversity initiatives, translating academic research into practical organizational development. His leadership as director of undergraduate studies indicates significant institutional responsibilities beyond research.
