Professor Haglund's scholarly interests include human rights (in particular, economic and social rights and the human right to water), globalization and international political economy, the sociology of development, macro- and comparative sociology, law and society, and institutions and social change. Her most recent research analyzes the legal, social, and political dimensions of sustainability and natural resources management, particularly the human right to water and sanitation.
Her work has received support from the U.S. National Science Foundation, the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board and the Brazilian Fulbright Commission. She is co-editor (with Robin Stryker) of "Closing the Rights Gap: From Human Rights to Social Transformation" (UC Press) and author of "Limiting Resources: Market-Led Reform and the Transformation of Public Goods" (Penn State Press), as well as articles in Latin American Perspectives, Journal of Human Rights, Water Policy, and European Journal of Sociology. Her affiliations include the American Sociological Association (where she is past chair of the Human Rights section), the Latin American Studies Association, the International Research Group on Law and Urban Space-IRGLUS, and the Law and Society Association (for which she coordinates the International Research Collaborative on Human Rights and Sustainability - IRC 58).
