Ulla Peters is sociologist and works since 2004 as an assistant Professor for Sociology in the Department of Social and Educational Sciences at the University of Luxembourg, where she teaches in the Bachelor Social and Educational Sciences and in the Master Management and Coaching. Main fields of interest and teaching are sociology, interculturality as well as violence and neglect in society. Recent research projects and interests focus questions of intersectionality and precarious situations both in individual life and for processes of social inclusion.
Currently she is also involved in a study on the demands and qualifications in the social sector in Luxembourg. In the last decade (since 1993) Peters researched mainly in the field of sustainable development, first at the University of Trier (1993-1997), later at the Stiftung Bauhaus in Dessau (1999-2001), where she participated in a national research collaboration on the social dimensions of sustainability. Peters studied sociology and economy at the University of Trier and holds a PhD from the University of Wuppertal (1991).
The doctoral dissertation, “Ökonomie als Gewaltverhältnis”, centers on the violence of the economic system which remained ever since a topic of interest. Internationally she locates herself in the fields of intersectional and youth in care studies. She is board member of the Institute for Regional and Migration Research (www.irm-trier.de) and coordinator of the Research Domain “Processes and Systems of Social Regulation” and of the Research Subdomain “Social Inclusion” within the Research Unit INSIDE.
