Author Information

Morten Nissen, Dr.Psych, PhD, is professor at the Graduate School of Education, Aarhus University, in Copenhagen, Denmark. He studies theories and practices involving subjectivity, collectivity, knowledges, standards, aesthetics, and motives, mostly as relevant to youth work, counselling, education and social work. Coming from critical psychology and science studies, he calls his approach a ‘post-psychology of care’, a contributory research aiming for sustainable ways to understand and re-/present ourselves. Among many other texts in English and Scandinavian, he published The Subjectivity of Participation at Palgrave in 2012.
