Primary fields of research
Lene Hansen primary research interests are International Relations Theory and Security Studies with a particular emphasis on poststructuralism, feminism and constructivism. Her book Security as Practice: Discourse Analysis and the Bosnian War (Routledge, 2006) lays out a poststructuralist theory about the relationship between identity and foreign policy. Security as Practice also provides explicit methodological guidelines for how to apply discourse analysis to international relations. Lene's interest in the concept of security and the history and sociology of Security Studies led to The Evolution of International Security Studies(Cambridge University Press, 2009) co-authored with Professor Barry Buzan. Lene has also worked on gender and security, cyber security, the Danish debate on the European Union, and the Muhammad Cartoon Crisis.
