Randi Gressgård is professor at Centre for Women's and Gender Research (SKOK) and affiliated with the research unit International Migration and Ethnic Relations (IMER), University of Bergen. Her research interests span the fields of migration and minorities; gender and sexuality; and urban security and governance.

Thematically, much of the research revolves around minority issues, including multiculturalism, postcolonialism, democracy, nationalism, racism and East-West geopolitics. The publications within the field of gender and sexuality can roughly be grouped into two sub-categories: feminist theory and problems of difference; and gender and sexuality formation and politics. Within the field of urban security and governance, the most recent publications concern the turn towards resilience thinking in crime and radicalisation prevention in Sweden.

The book Multicultural Dialogue: Dilemmas, Paradoxes, Conflicts (2010/2012) was selected for debate in Dialogues in Human Geography’s book forum in 2012: https://journals.sagepub.com/toc/dhg/2/2. A decade later, it is the starting point for the essay "Dialogue in a polarized world - Is there a way out?" in the edited volume Hans-Herbert Kögler's Critical Hermeneutics (2022), with response from H-H. Kögler: https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/hansherbert-k%C3%B6glers-critical-hermeneutics-9781350228634/

Securing the future: Resilient cities in the context of migration

The project is in collaboration with Anders Rubing, Centre for Women's and Gender Research, and Bjørn Enge Bertelsen, Department of Social Anthropology, UiB. It is funded by University of Bergen’s strategic initiative on global challenges: https://www.uib.no/en/globalchallenges

In what is declared an increasingly complex and insecure world, there is a growing demand for resilience strategies in various fields. For instance, the UN Secretary-General’s High-Level Panel of Global Sustainability’s 2012 report, Resilient People, Resilient Planet, describes resilience as a governance response to complex problems in a complex world, based on the assumption that the future is truly uncertain and unpredictable.

To arrive at a more specific understanding of how resilience-informed security assemblages shape global challenges, the project sets out to examine the production of urban security problematics in the context of migration. Empirically, it focuses on transnational networks where security challenges are shaped and circulated. The project is particularly concerned with reconfigurations of gendered and racialized challenges, as well as new forms of ignorance.

Egalitarian Futures Research Group (FUTURES)

Our point of departure is the idea that the future - the orientation towards a time yet to come - is fundamental for understanding contemporary global society. The group of researchers empirically map and investigate various groups of people who are particularly and intensively preoccupied with futures.
