About Jayeon Lee

formerly Lindellee

I defended my doctoral dissertation in Social Work at Lund University 2018. In my doctoral thesis I studied changes in the Swedish unemployment insurance program in recent decades, by analyzing institutional changes and their distributive consequences.

My research interests include labor market policy and social policy, social security systems, civil society organizations and sustainable welfare. More specifically I am currently interested in the following areas:

I am part of the following research networks:

  • Sustainable Welfare & Eco-social Policy Network (Country representative for Sweden)
  • Postgrowth Nordics
  • ENOUGH - International Network for Sufficiency Research & Policy
  • European Network for Social Policy Analysis
  • Sustainability Transitions Research Network

As a senior lecturer I teach in the BA and MA level social work programs. Topics I teach include social policy, social security system, inequality, climate justice, eco-social policy, etc.
