About Arne Frederik Wackenhut

I am a Ph.D. Candidate in Peace and Development Research.
Currently, I am in the process of finishing my doctoral thesis, which aspires to better understand the role of the Cairo-based political opposition in the diffusion of protest during the Egyptian Uprising of 2011.
My research interests include, but are not limited to, Civil Resistance, Social Movement Theory and Contentious Politics. I am particularly interested in questions relating to grassroots mobilization for socio-political change in less-democratic settings. In my work I am trying to explore ways in which a combination of process tracing techniques and qualitative interview data can help us map the complex causal pathways that produce, for instance, the large-scale diffusion of collective contentious behaviour.

My teaching philosophy builds on student-centered learning, and places an emphasis on teaching and learning activities that encourage deep learning.
