Linda Hasselbusch

Intern

Linda is currently finishing her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, with a specialisation in Social Psychology. She is curious about societal processes that facilitate or inhibit norm-diverging behaviour in people and groups. Further, she is pursuining a minor in Law and Justice in the European Union, where she hopes to learn about the possibilities and limitations of the law when it comes to ensuring a tolerant and resilient society.

As an intern with the Extreme Beliefs project, she is investigating how representatives of left- and right-wing parties in Germany make use of conspiracy theories. Especially the topic of preventing and countering right-wing extremism is something she wishes to delve deeper into with her prospective Master’s degree.
