Charlotte Nilsson, since the beginning of January PhD-student in Lund, is the newest member of our EMHIS-network.
Inspired by the wide notion of media, she studies trade and consumption from a media (systems) perspective. More specifically, she explores mail-order retailing in the early 20th century as a meaning-making medium. Her intent is to focus on the systems for distribution and marketing, as well as the materiality of the medium and the practices surrounding it.
Charlotte has a Bachelor degree in Ethnology and a Master’s degree in Strategic Communication, and aims to integrate the two within the discipline of Media History. Before starting her PhD studies, she has worked several years with internationalization of education, as well as with research communication. She also has experience from the museum sector.
Welcome Charlotte!
