Joshua Garland

I am currently a postdoctoral researcher with Lund University’s Centre for Sustainability Studies (LUCSUS) as a member of the ‘ICARUS’ project team that focuses on power, networks and intersectionality in climate adaptation.

My research interests centre on:

• Environmental sociology, especially cross-scale governance dynamics
• Climate change and society
• Social movements and social networks
• Methodology, inclusive of mixed and visual approaches

I have experience developing and successfully implementing mixed method research designs including survey instruments, interviews, content analyses and statistical approaches using Stata, alongside photo-elicitation techniques.

Before joining LUCSUS, I completed my PhD in Sociology and Methodology of Social Research at the universities of Milan and Turin, Italy, and completed a research Master’s analysing the UK anti-fracking movement while at the University of Exeter.

I have published in journals such as Social Movement Studies, The British Journal of Sociology and WIREs Climate Change. I was the 2023 recipient of the International Visual Sociology Association’s Rieger Award.

I can also be found on ResearchGate, Google Scholar and LinkedIn.
