Dette brenner jeg for! Festskrift til Hege Brækhus 70 år
- 2019
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- I dette festskriftet til Hege Brækhus bidrar et stort antall kolleger og kontakter til å anerkjenne Hege og hennes engasjement på ulike områder innenfor rettsvitenskapen i samfunnsmessig viktige spørsmål. Interessen for og betoningen av økonomien som sentral for et menneskes selvstendighet, i kombinasjon med det rent konkrete rommet, er så karakteristisk for Hege. Hun er en uvanlig person innenfor akademia, en person som har evne til å kombinere en akademisk karriere med et sterkt innslag av pragmatisme og nærhet til hverdagens praktiske aspekter, som arbeidsvilkår, lønn og karriereutvikling. Forfatterne representerer både samfunnsvitenskap og et bredt spekter av rettsvitenskap. Alle har skrevet om noe de selv brenner for - samfunnsmessige spørsmål av ulik art, behov for regelendringer, praksis man er kritisk til, osv. Boka har et stort spenn, både tematisk og ved inkludering av ulike fag, tradisjoner og metoder. Som helhet utgjør dette et festskrift som avspeiler «state of the art» når det gjelder engasjement blant forskere anno 2019.

Introduction : nordic gender equality and anti-discrimination laws in the throes of change
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Nordic equality and anti-discrimination laws in the throes of change. - : Routledge. - 9781003172840 - 9781032001258 ; , s. 1-18
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book provides insights into the drive to achieve substantive gender equality in four Nordic countries: Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. It draws a diverse and complex picture of the long, uneven, and unfinished process towards that goal. These countries’ systematic use of a combination of political and legal instruments has been described as the Nordic gender equality model. The Nordic states are known for the wide range of policies and programmes that, since the middle of the 20th century, have been adopted to ensure the provision of health services, education and economic safety for all, regardless of socioeconomic background and gender. In the 1970s and 1980s, the Nordic countries were among the first in the world to enact general gender equality and anti-discrimination laws with low-threshold enforcement mechanisms as an alternative to the ordinary courts.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This book provides insights into the drive to achieve substantive gender equality in four Nordic countries: Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. It draws a diverse and complex picture of the long, uneven, and unfinished process towards that goal. These countries’ systematic use of a combination of political and legal instruments has been described as the Nordic gender equality model. The overall aim of such an approach is to achieve substantive equality through a variety of measures that go beyond formal equality. Laws and policies on gender equality vary with the political, social and legal context in each of the Nordic countries, but the Nordic gender equality model may be understood as consisting of three key components. The first is an overarching gender equality policy. The second is welfare legislation that has an explicit or implicit impact on gender relations. The third component is what we refer to as ‘gender equality and anti-discrimination law regimes’: laws that prohibit gender discrimination and promote gender equality through proactive measures, in combination with low-threshold enforcement systems.

Nordic Equality and Anti-Discrimination Laws in the Throes of Change Legal developments in Sweden, Finland, Norway, and Iceland

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The Nordic states were among the first in the world to enact general gender equality and anti-discrimination laws with low threshold enforcement mechanisms. Today, the Nordic countries top the World Economic Forum’s Gender Gap Index – but have still not succeeded in closing the gender gap. This book draws a diverse and complex picture of the long, uneven and unfinished process towards substantive equality in four Nordic countries: Sweden, Finland, Norway and Iceland. It presents the Nordic gender equality model’s systematic use of three measures: overarching gender policies, legislation that has an explicit or implicit impact on gender relations and gender equality and anti-discrimination laws with low threshold enforcement systems. What potentials and limitations does the Nordic gender equality and anti-discrimination law regimes have to combat individual discrimination and structural inequality? Can these regimes function as a driver of political, legal, economic, cultural and social change, and as a corrective to laws, policies and practices that uphold existing inequalities, and, if so, to what extent? Can weaknesses in the equality and anti-discrimination laws and the way they are enforced hamper efforts to close remaining gender gaps? Rather than looking at the Nordic gender equality laws and policies in isolation, the book situates their development and transformative potential within a changing European and international political and legal landscape.

Om erotik, makt och sexualbrottens sexualitet

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this chapter I examine the concept of sexual offenses in Swedish criminal law: How is the sexuality of sexual offenses constructed? The material analyzed consists of preparatory works and case law on sexual offenses. Inspired by law professor Katherine M. Franke, the analysis is theoretically grounded in two diverse understandings of sexuality: Sexuality as erotic and sexuality as a dense transfer point for relations of power. In the article I argue that the sexuality of sexual offenses – such as it is constructed in Swedish criminal law on sexual offences – reflects an image of sexuality as pleasurable and mutual. Hence, it is a sexuality created as erotic. Further, a consequence of this construction of sexuality is discussed in the article, namely that sexuality as erotic renders invisible the many different ways in which sexuality is used as a tool in relations of power. Finally, different theoretical understandings of the relation between gender and sexual violations in criminal law are shortly discussed.
