Mikko Joronen

Mikko Joronen (filosofian tohtori; poliittisen maantieteen dosentti) työskentelee yliopistotutkijana Tampereen yliopiston tutkijakollegiumissa . Hänen tutkimuksensa painottuu kolmeen pääteemaan: haavoittuvaisuuden politiikkaan, jokapäiväisen väkivallan rytmeihin ja temporaalisuuksiin, sekä maantieteen teoriaan, etenkin ontologian, politiikan ja tilallisuuden kysymyksiin. Hänen julkaisunsa käsittelevät useita näihin teemoihin linkittyviä näkökulmia, muun muassa hidasta väkivaltaa, odottamista ja nopeuden politiikkaa, tulevaisuuden ja kodin kolonisaatiota, sekä haavoittuvaisuuden ontologista yhteyttä erilaisiin vallan, hallinnan ja arjen vastarinnan muotoihin. Tällä hetkellä hän keskittyy tutkimuksessaan erilaisiin atmosfäärisiin hallintatekniikoihin sekä kodin purkupäätösten materialistiseen ja affektuaaliseen politiikkaan, etenkin miehitetyillä palestiinalaisalueilla. Hän toimii Palestiina-tutkimusryhmän ja Suomen akatemian rahoittaman 'Palestiinan nyky-tulevaisuudet' projektin vetäjänä, sekä Transactions of the Institute for British Geographers -journaalin editorina.
