I have been interested in the Swedish participation in the Baltic wars of independence and on the Petrograd front of the Russian Civil War (1918-1920) for a number of years now, and I am presently working on a book on the subject. While presenting a case study, I am also going to engage with the broader issue of 'neutral interventionism' and how the perceptions of regional closeness between Baltic provinces/Baltic states and Scandinavia informed these initiatives in various ways. The outputs this far include several journal articles and a translation of the memoirs of a Swedish volunteer.
