Kristin Bergtora Sandvik

Faglige interesser
Kristin Bergtora Sandvik har de siste femten årene studert retts- og rettighetsbevissthet, rettsliggjøring, rettslig mobilisering og soft law med fokus på nasjonale og internasjonale humanitære organisasjoner og humanitær respons. Hun er særlig interessert i legalitets-, legitimitets- og etterrettelighetsspørsmål. Hennes feltarbeidsbaserte forskning har undersøkt hvordan jussen opererer i voldelige kontekster med særlig fokus på flyktningeproblematikk og kjønnsbasert vold i Uganda og Colombia. Sandvik er også interessert i bruken av droner, robotteknologi og cybersikkerhet i humanitære og militære kontekster.
Sandvik forsker fra 2017 på rettsoppgjøret etter 22 juli. Prosjektet LAW@22July kartlegger rettsoppgjøret etter 22 juli 2011 med vekt på læring (Learning), etterrettelighet (Accountability) og å bære vitne for juridisk læring (witnessing). Sandvik leder også for tiden et prosjekt finansiert av Norges Forskningsråd: “Aid in Crisis? Rights-based Approaches and Humanitarian Outcomes” (AIDEFFFECT). Hun har også de siste årene samarbeidet tett med det juridisk fakultet ved Los Andes Universitetet i Colombia.
Sandvik har publisert i tidsskrifter som Law and Society Review, Feminist Legal Studies, PoLAR: Political and Legal Anthropology Review, Journal of Human Rights Practice, International Journal of Refugee Law, Third World Quarterly, Journal of Military Ethics, International Review of the Red Cross, Disasters, Millennium-Journal of International Studies, Refugee Survey Quarterly, Nordic Journal of Human Rights, Retfærd, Kritisk Juss, Norsk Antropologisk Tidsskrift, og Internasjonal Politikk.
