Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Children’s rights to asylum have emerged as an urgent political challenge. This article uses a number of cases discussed in Sweden’s largest morning paper to analyse claims of asylum-seeking children and how these claims challenge the normative limits of contemporary asylum, concerning what and who ought to be recognized by law. Even though the universality of the child constitutes a running theme, the arguments and the conception of children underpinning the claims are diverse. The article suggests that the claiming of rights as a socio-political practice could be a vital analytical approach to studying children’s rights and offers a much needed alternative to the dominant mainstreaming paradigm.

Ingår i: Peer-to-Peer Accommodation and Community Resilience: Implications for Sustainable Development. - : CABI. ; , s. 55-67

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study explores the perceived impacts of short-term rentals (STRs) in the United Kingdom through a quantitative analysis. A 57-item questionnaire covering socio-cultural, economic, political, environmental, and technological impacts of STRs was distributed online among guests, hosts, and aware non-users. Apart from descriptive statistics, the data analysis encompassed a principal component analysis to explore the dimensionality of the perceived impacts and an ANOVA to assess differences in the community-related dimensions among the included groups. The results reveal that: a) STRs are perceived relatively ambivalently but slightly more positively than negatively; b) Environmental Care, Urban Transformation, Social Capital and Lifestyle, Housing, Infrastructure and Events, and Antisocial Behaviour and Crime are the key dimensions of perceived impact; and c) more involved stakeholder groups perceived the impacts of STRs positively. We discuss the findings in light of community resilience literature.

Travel information services and travel planning practice : Changing the horizon of assistance
-
Ingår i: International Journal of Sustainable Transportation. - 1556-8318 .- 1556-8334.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Recent decades have seen rapid growth in ICT services relating to transportation. Different types of travel information services have been proposed as a means to decrease the environmental impacts of transportation through behavioural change. However, empirical evidence shows that travel planning is a fragmented, distributed and fluid process that is not as enclosed in time and space or delimited in content, as existing ICT services for travel planning would imply, despite smart and mobile solutions. This paper examines the role of planning and coordination in the travel choices of everyday life and the time horizons and decisions that are part of current travel planning services. It also considers how travel information services of tomorrow, linked with other ICT services, could be designed to stretch the horizon of assistance, in order to better support travel planning processes in everyday life. Finally, it critically discusses the role of travel information services and ICT in the work of achieving more sustainable mobility.

Participatory Design in Emerging Civic Engagement Initiatives in the New Public Sector : Applying PD Concepts in Resource-Scarce Organizations
- 2018
-
Ingår i: ACM Transactions on Computer-Human Interaction. - : ACM Digital Library. - 1073-0516 .- 1557-7325. ; 25:1, s. 5:1-5:26
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this study, we address the role of Participatory Design (PD) in emerging public sector governance forms and, more specifically, civic engagement and we-government initiatives. We achieve this by first providing a research overview of the development of PD approaches since they originated in the 1970s, identifying different PD generations and associated concepts, contexts, and challenges, and then relating them to current public sector trends. Next, we link the overview to a practical example by presenting a case of applying PD to a civic engagement project that takes place in the Swedish emergency response system. Our example findings sustain previously identified needs to return to broad change processes and balance this with ICT re-configuration and structuration of the collaborative processes, the related stakeholders, and their needs, this time in a context where work tasks and responsibilities are not yet defined, known or experienced among stakeholders. We then suggest methodological ways to handle this by (1) applying an interdisciplinary PD approach, (2) replacing the traditional design group with a combination of various qualitative methods and PD techniques, e.g., focus groups, modified scenario-based future workshops, exercises, and after-action-reviews, and (3) support PD activities with context-specific frameworks. We argue that applying PD concepts to the governance forms that are emerging in resource-constrained public sector organizations poses a number of challenges, many of them relating directly to the unknown character of the work setting and the practical difficulties of involving civil citizens as end-users. However, if they are addressed and handled adequately, making civic engagement initiatives work processes and ICT support to work smoothly, this can contribute to a re-politicization of PD in terms of space, action, and the empowerment of citizens both by enhancing their skills and by having them represented in design activities.

‘Environmental governance’ and ‘ecosystem management’ : avenues for synergies between two approaches
- 2016

Ingår i: Interdisciplinary Environmental Review. - Bucks : InderScience Publishers. - 1521-0227 .- 2042-6992. ; 17:1, s. 1-19

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Based on a literature review of over 160 journal articles and books, this article examines the ecosystem management and environmental governance approaches, and looks for common topics and integrated research agendas. While scientific articles on environmental governance stem primarily from social science research, the ecosystem management approach is more natural science-oriented. A review of journal articles from the ISI Web of Knowledge (Web of Science) reveals that the two research communities hardly interact. The paper discusses two thematic linkages between the two approaches: the debates dealing with the scale and level of environmental policy; and the discussions surrounding multi-stakeholder participation. Moreover, the article identifies areas with a high potential for the establishment of common ground, such as the current discussion on science-policy interfaces. We argue for more interaction, claim that the two research approaches can learn from each other, and discuss the potential for the development of interdisciplinary research agendas.

Introducing the panspectric challenge : A reconfiguration of regulatory values in a multiplatform media landscape

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Taking Sweden as a case study, the role of public service broadcasting (PSB) is explored, with a focus on issues of data retention and innovation that accompany web distribution. The issue of predicting audience preferences by means of data retention is investigated, and the related problem of organizational autonomy when interacting with commercial actors in the digital sphere. We hypothesize that previous tendencies towards paternalism might be equally supplemented by tendencies towards so-called “panspectric” surveillance and tracking, given a technological environment where such practices are increasingly common. We argue that the absence of advertising partially helps keep these broadcasters from panspectric temptation. Still, practices such as Facebook integration entail a panspectric element. We ask whether the potential increase in the efficacy of targeting audiences promised by panspectric practices might be offset by its negative impact on civic accountability. Is there a possibility for a “benign,” democratically accountable panspectrocism?

Digitala prenumerationer ökar – men vägen dit har varit lång

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Det som förr om åren var ett givet inslag i de flesta hushåll, den prenumererade morgontidningen, har under det senaste årtiondet blivit mer allt ovanligt i många hem. Stora delar av publiken har valt att istället rikta blicken mot olika nyhetssajter. Viljan att betala för den digitala nyhetsprodukten har dock inte varit särskilt stor. Under de senaste åren har dock kunnat skönjas en successiv ökning av antalet digi-tala morgontidningsprenumeranter. Det syns i morgontidningarnas egen statistik såväl som i resultaten från den nationella SOM-undersökningen. Ökningen gäller såväl bland yngre och äldre som bland boende på landsbygd och boende i storstad. Samtidigt visar analysen att det fortfarande är långt kvar innan digitala prenumera-tioner kommer att överstiga prenumerationen på papperstidningar. I det här kapitlet granskas förändringar i svenska folkets prenumerationsbenägenhet under perioden 2000–2019, med särskilt fokus på den digitala prenumerationsviljan. Därtill granskas också vilka huvudsakliga skäl som ligger bakom valet att avstå en digital morgontid-ningsprenumeration. Priset och tillgången till kostnadsfria nyheter i andra medier visar sig, inte helt förvånande, tillhöra de vanligaste svaren.
