Nationella forskarskolan i socialt arbete : dess målgrupp och deltagare
- 2011
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The Swedish Research School in Social Work (RSSW) was initiated in 2008, as collaboration between all Swedish universities with post-graduate education in Social Work. The intention was to assemble a broader basis for subject specific postgraduate courses, to strengthen the identity of Social Work as a postgraduate subject and to work for an international collaboration.This report describes the PhD students in social work and their experience of attending RSSW-courses. The report addresses how support, such as tutoring, affect participation in RSSW-courses and also highlights various aspects of the future, as the doctoral students’ future career paths.Results of the study reveal that tutoring situation, gender, and age, among other things, affect the participation in and experience of RSSW. The study also shows that the subject orientations and course needs of doctoral students in Social Work are broad and varying. It is further a large part of the doctoral student group who would consider a future career outside the academy, which raises the question of where the scientific knowledge in the long run end up and what that means for the development of Social Work as a subject.

Goda år på ålderns höst? : En ESO-rapport om konkurrens i äldreomsorgen
- 2014
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- nder de senaste decennierna har det blivit möjligt att driva äldreomsorg i privat regi. Förespråkarna för denna utveckling pekar på valfrihet och ökad effektivitet. Kritikerna talar om vanvård och menar att äldreomsorg inte lämpar sig för marknadslösningar. I rapporten analyserar forskarna förutsättningarna för att nå god kvalitet och effektivt resursutnyttjande vid marknadsliknande lösningar i äldreomsorgen. De frågor som diskuteras i rapporten är bl.a.:Hur fungerar den svenska äldreomsorgsmarknaden?Under vilka förutsättningar kan valfrihet och konkurrens förbättra omsorgen?Vilka krav kan och bör ställas på äldreomsorgens utförare?Vilken betydelse har brukarval för omsorgens kvalitet?

Välfärdsstaten och de nyanlända : en flyktingplaceringspolitisk probleminventering
- 2010
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The aim of this paper is to make an inventory overview of challenges and problems in the area of refugee settlement policies. An analysis is made of the political development, from the mid 1980s and onwards, of this hotly debated issue in Swedish politics. Then we identify a number of principal themes and problems which arise in relation to questions of dispersal programmes and refugee reception. The paper is based on an ongoing research project at Uppsala University, where refugee settlement policies are studied from a comparative Scandinavian perspective, focusing both on the national level and on the local level.

IKEA and the Responsible Governance of Supply Chains : IKEA’s work on chemicals in textiles
- 2013
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This report focuses on IKEA’s management and communication surrounding sustainability in general and chemical risks specifically. IKEA’s work is analysed in relation to theoretical concepts around responsibility, supply chain, and governance . The report focuses on IKEA’s visions and organizational structures, its policy instruments to deal with chemical risks, supplier-relations and communication and learning. The study is based on previous scholarly literature, analyses of relevant documents, a field visit at a few of IKEA’s suppliers in southern India, as well as interviews with staff working at IKEA in Sweden. The report focuses on IKEA’s systems and processes for dealing with chemical risks, and not on the implementation of such measures in quantitative terms.

Towards responsible procurement in relation to chemical risks in textiles? Findings from an interview study
- 2011
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In the present study, we ask whether and how different organizations work with sustainable procurement and how this work relates to the complexity of the product chain. We have chosen to focus on chemical risks in relation to textiles – an issue that increasingly is becoming part of the public discourse and a target for journalists. In the case of textiles, the product chain from raw material to consumption often involves a great number of production steps, sub-contractors and users, often on a global scale. Sustainable management of the supply chain would improve health, quality of life, and labour conditions, for instance in the areas and factories in developing countries where production and processing often take place. However, such management faces great difficulties and challenges in terms of capabilities, knowledge, communication, and policy instruments. These difficulties are related to high uncertainties and other problems that in turn are related to the high complexity of global product chains. The objective of the present report is to gain insights into the opportunities and challenges that private and public organizations face regarding the development of responsible procurement in relation to a complex and uncertain issue. The report focuses on chemicals in textiles and uses a qualitative methodology with semi-structured interviews. Key elements of a pro-active, responsible procurement strategy are defined in the report and include criteria such as using a preventive, systematic, responsive, integrative, and reflective approach. The analysis includes the following topics: (i) priorities and knowledge, (ii) communicative strategies, (iii) policy instruments, (iv) monitoring and trust in relation to suppliers. The results show a fairly modest level of organizational responsibility, although it is possible to observe an initial positive development among the cases investigated. The report ends by suggesting a number of topics that require further investigation.

Dialog som styrning i samhällsutvecklarrollen : en förstudie hos Trafikverket
- 2020
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Att använda dialoger har visat sig vara ett viktigt inslag i verksamhetsstyrning då de kan överbrygga komplexitet och brister i formella styrsystem. Denna rapport handlar om Trafikverket, en av Sveriges myndigheter som tillsammans med andra aktörer styr med samhällsvärde i fokus. Trafikverket har formulerat en verksamhetslogik som bygger på ett värdeskapande utifrån-och-in-perspektiv vilket ska fånga många olika samhällsrelevanta behov, samtidigt som alla tillgängliga resurser ska användas på ett så kostnadseffektivt sätt som möjligt, inifrån-och-ut. Den övergripande styrningen i offentlig sektor är vertikal, uppifrån-och-ner, samtidigt som kraven ofta är horisontella. Detta är exempel på några perspektiv i verksamhetsstyrningen som behöver samordnas på ett öppet och tydligt sätt med trovärdighet, legitimitet och engagemang. Detta forskningsprojekt utgör en förstudie om dialogens roll i myndigheters styrning. Resultaten pekar på dialogens betydelse och vikten av att förstå och arbeta med dialogens villkor såväl i intern som i extern samverkan.
