My present research is focused on climate policy and market shaping. The focus is on institutional work as efforts to make production and consumption fossil-free.

Based on systems thinking my research over more than five decades has covered issues related to integration and dynamics in distribution systems, internationalization of firms and markets in a markets-as-networks perspective, service innovation and interaction between public policy and market behavior.
