Hello stranger, I'm Fabian, nice to meet you,
I'm a sociologist and media scholar with area specializations in cultural and political life, cities, and climate change. My current research focuses on challenges to community and collective action. The main thematic areas are
* media, family life, and cultural traditions
* digital individualism and social isolation
* social movements and electoral politics
* climate change, democracy, and communication
I did my PhD (2001) in a music department and worked on the sociology of music festivals throughout the 2010s, culminating with a Habilitation in 2019. My interests and responsibilities have evolved toward more general societal issues, but I still do some things related to music, culture, and leisure.
I have taught at Roskilde since 2006 and held temporary positions at the University of Chicago and Humboldt University of Berlin.
Key publications:
"The Geo-Ecological Turn in Sociology and its Implications for the Sociology of the Arts" (Cultural Sociology 2022)

I'm the founding editor of the book series 33 1/3 Europe, published by Bloomsbury
