Jon Wittrock is Doctor of Political and Social Sciences and Associate Professor (Docent) in political science. He completed his PhD at the European University Institute and has been active as a researcher and teacher at several universities, in Sweden and abroad. Wittrock's research has explored the ambiguous borderland between the religous and the secular, but also focused on the connections between dignity and freedom. He is currently developing a theory of multidimensional autonomy and has traced potential implications of this framework for questions concerning justice and human rights, pertaining to controversial issues such as involuntary loneliness, sexual deprivation, and assisted dying.
