Engelsk beskrivning om dig själv
Marcel Mangold joined the Swedish Defence University in March 2020 as Associate Senior Lecturer in War Studies. Marcel obtained his Ph.D. in political science at Södertörn University College in 2018. During 2019 he held a position as a lecturer in political science at the Department of Political Science at Örebro University. He has also taught political science at Stockholm University. During his Ph.D., he spent two years at the Johns Hopkins University as visiting graduate student with a Fulbright grant.

Marcel’s research at the Swedish Defence University examines the role of affects and emotions in war, with a particular interest in the role of affirmation in war or in preparations for war. Other research interests are human dimensions in warfare more broadly, military training, ergonomics (human-machine integration), air power, as well as how armed forces relate to the environment and environmental regulations.

Before becoming a war studies scholar, Marcel has published several political scientific publications that explore the role of affirmation in democratic politics. In his dissertation, he conducted a genealogical study on the Swedish state's efforts to shape and standardize democratic citizen habits in Sweden.
