Author & lecturer | MA in Cultural Studies

Fields of interest:
• Japanese and Asian history
• Culture and ways of life
• Sustainability & resilience
• Historical perspectives on contemporary challenges

My work explores history, culture, and ways of life, and how the past can help us understand the contemporary world. I am particularly interested in questions of sustainability and in the changing ways people live, think, and shape society.

My book Edo ja kestävyyden taito (Edo and the Art of Resilience) explores Japanese society and ways of life during the Edo period (1603–1868), and what they can teach us about resilience and sustainable ways of living in the face of today’s ecological crises.
