Hans Skott-Myhre
Adjunct Professor
hans.skott-myhre@brocku.ca
Available to co-supervise
Available for Graduate Committee
Dr. Skott-Myhre is an interdisciplinary cultural theorist whose primary research area is the development of models of child and youth work that promote new political possibilities for youth-adult collaboration that challenge global capitalist empire. His research includes the investigation of new forms of community, identity, body practices, and creative expression that hold potential for resistance or flight for youth and adults working towards common political purposes. As a cultural theorist he uses popular culture such as films, “zines”, posters, fashion, novels, and music in combination with academic texts to explore his research interests. He has a strong interest in qualitative research and holds a Ph.D. in Work Community and Family Education from the University of Minnesota with a dissertation that focused on globalization, punks and skinheads and is completing a second doctorate in Cultural Studies with a focus on revolutionary subjectivity. He has taught in the areas of Psychology, Social Work, Youth Studies, Philosophy and Cultural Studies.
