معرفی
Tea Fredriksson serves as an Associate Professor and Director of undergraduate studies at the Department of Criminology, Stockholm University. Her academic work focuses on the intersections of victimology, gender studies, and narrative analysis within criminal justice contexts.
Dr. Fredriksson's research centers on perceptions and constructions of belonging and otherness in relation to spaces and processes of punishment. Her work examines how victimhood is performed and assessed in legal settings, particularly through intersectional lenses. She investigates how men navigate the tension between traditional masculinity and credible victimhood, how women experience desistance as an 'uncanny process,' and how prison institutions function as both abject and uncanny spaces that haunt individuals and society.
Her publications reveal a consistent theoretical engagement with concepts of the uncanny, abjection, and haunting as analytical frameworks for understanding criminal justice phenomena. Fredriksson's work bridges criminological theory with cultural analysis, examining how narratives shape our understanding of crime, punishment, and victimization across various contexts including courtroom proceedings, prison literature, and popular media representations.
She is an active member of the Victimological Research Group established in 2021 at Stockholm University's Department of Criminology, which examines victims of crime from multiple perspectives through diverse empirical materials.
As Director of undergraduate studies, Dr. Fredriksson plays a significant administrative role in shaping the academic experience for criminology students at Stockholm University while maintaining an active research agenda that contributes to theoretical developments in critical victimology and narrative criminology.
