“I look forward to continuing the good work of my predecessor Michael Baggesen Klitgaard, AAU. I’ve participated in board meetings for the last year. This was a positive experience, and I’m sure the fruitful collaboration will continue,” says Professor of Political Science Svend-Erik Skaaning about the new position as president of the Danish Political Science Association.

  • Department of Political Science at University of Southern Denmark
