Abdullahi Omar

I am a theory-building scholar working at the intersection of digital systems, learning, and institutional power. My core contribution is the Generative Social Structure (GSS) framework, a theory of how social logics persist and reorganize through rupture.

My academic and professional journey spans cultural studies, communication theory, and digital learning systems, forming the interdisciplinary foundation from which the GSS framework is built. The theory emerged from comparative work on Somalia, with probes into Kenya, Egypt, Yemen, South Sudan, and the Arabian Peninsula.

Alongside academic work, I have worked in primary education, community development, cross-cultural engagement, and institutional coordination across Sweden and internationally.
