Ulrika is an Assistant Professor in criminal law, working as a researcher and teacher in criminal law, criminal procedural law and law and gender.  Her main research focuses broadly on questions concerning law and power.  She is particularly interested in issues of sexuality and gender, in addition to power relations in regard to class and ethnicity. She has done research on sexual offenses, highlighting the gendered structure of legal definitions, as well as the proof process.

Her most recent project was on human trafficking.  She argues for a “contextual legal subject” approach, which she argues will make visible the societal structures under which people are living, hopefully thus making legal scholars and practitioners take them into account. She has published widely, including monographs, chapters in anthologies, and articles in Nordic Journals.
