Datum: 21 oktober 2026
Tid: 10:00-11:45
Venue: Institute for Futures Studies, Holländargatan 13 in Stockholm or online
Research seminar with Göran Duus-Otterström, Professor of political science at the University of Gothenburg, as well as a researcher at the Institute for Futures Studies. Göran's research is in normative political theory. The bulk of his work can be divided into two categories: on the one hand, the justification of legal punishment, on the other hand, climate ethics and climate justice. Göran's work on punishment explores retributivism, particularly the concept of desert. Recently, he has also focused on the relationship between political legitimacy and the right to coerce. Göran's research on climate ethics is primarily on fair burden sharing, that is, how the costs of climate policy ought to be allocated between actors. He is the author (with Bengt Brülde) of the popular science book Klimatetik: Rättvisa, Politik och Individens Ansvar (Thales, 2015). Göran won the 2023 Brian Barry Prize in political science.
