Private Lives on sociality and digitalization

The research project Private Lives: Embedding Sociality at Digital ‘Kitchen Tables’ studies sociality as everyday lives are increasingly digitalized through social media and digital platforms.

With anthropologist Marianne Gullestad’s classic Kitchen Table Society as a reference for Nordic sociality, and digitalized everyday lives as the ethnographic focus, we seek to renew digital ethnographic skills, and revitalize Nordic ethnography as a site of theoretical innovation.

Master students are welcome to create their own project within our umbrella, and to be part of our project team. For more information about sub-projects and team members, see our website.
