We will invesitgate the socio-economic and demographic outcomes of migration for Finnish migrants and their offspring since 1970s combining Swedish and Finnish register data.

My research focus will be inquiry on religious affiliation using Finnish register data.

I defended my PhD in Sociology from Department of Sociology, Stockholm University. My dissertation focuses on the impact of religion on political attitudes and political behaviors through political cleavages, political institutions and political articulation, in secularizing European societies.
