Primary fields of research

Kristian Cedervall Lauta is Prorector for Education and Professor of disaster and climate law. His research regards disasters, cliamte and risk, and both how these phenomena are regulated, and how they, in turn, affect law.

In his latest book (in Danish only), Katastrofer - og hvad de kan lære os om os selv, Kristian provides unique insight into disasters, and how we as individuals and societies react.
