Andreas Mørkved Hellenes

Andreas Mørkved Hellenes is a postdoc at the Division of Science, Technology and Society, at the Department of Technology Management and Economics, and an affiliated postdoctoral researcher at Clare Hall College, Cambridge. He is a graduate of Sciences Po Paris (2010) and holds a PhD in History from the same establishment (2019).

Dr Mørkved’s main research interests lie in the study of political, cultural, and economic entanglements between the Nordic region and Europe during the 20^th-21^st centuries. His current research project “A history of non-sustainable integration. High-speed trains, Europeanisation and the failure of the Nordic triangle, 1985-2005” is funded by the Swedish Research Council (2023-2026). The project analyses the ambitions and failures of a sustainable border-crossing transport system, planned to economically integrate Scandinavia into the European Union during the 1980s and 1990s, with comparative outlooks to contemporary projects elsewhere in Europe.
