Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Vad som händer i USA antas påverka hela omvärlden. Stjärnspäckat är vårt bidrag till att snabbt analysera valresultatet och dess påverkan på svenskt samhällsliv. Titeln associerar både till stjärnbaneret och till kalibern på de medverkande experterna som generöst bidragit med sina respektive analyser av det amerikanska valet och dess konsekvenser.Den vetenskapliga analysen av val och valrörelser har långa traditioner. Inte minst svenska forskare var tidigt ute med omfattande studier av svenska val. Vi själva har också nära följt många val. Såväl här på hemmaplan som till Europaparlamentet och i USA. Vi menar att det finns goda skäl att återigen ge utrymme för akademiska analyser nära efter valets genomförande. I vanlig ordning ges perspektiv från medie- och statsvetenskap. Men då amerikanska val tilldrar sig ett enormt intresse och har stor påverkan på många aspekter av samhället menar vi att det finns anledning att bredda analysen till att inkludera expertis från även andra akademiska discipliner. I denna rapport tar vi således ett mångvetenskapligt perspektiv på det amerikanska valet. Med bidrag från såväl naturvetenskap som humaniora och samhällsvetenskap är vår övertygelse att vi kan nå en bredare förståelse för det amerikanska valet och dess påverkan på Sverige än vad en traditionell valanalys skulle bidra med. Rapporten är den tredje i sitt slag där vi samlar ledande forskare för att analysera val och valrörelser. I Snabbtänkt analyserades det svenska valet 2018 medan vi tog oss an Europaparlamentsvalet 2019 i Euroflections. Upplägget är enkelt. Varje medverkande forskare ges en sida för att med utgångspunkt i sin expertis analysera det amerikanska valet och i vad mån det har betydelse för Sverige. Stilistiskt är anslaget populärvetenskapligt och vårt mål är att texterna ska läsas av en bredare läsekrets än de som vanligtvis tar sig an veten-skapliga publikationer. Man kan läsa rapporten från pärm till pärm eller välja ut godbitarna.Även om framtiden står skriven i stjärnorna är vår förhoppning att denna volym ger läsaren insikter som kan underlätta tydningen av den.

Varken terrorister eller terrorns experter är ensamvargar
- 2019

Ingår i: Feministiskt Perspektiv, 2019-03-26.

Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Att betrakta Tarrant, Breivik och Lundin Pettersson som ensamvargar är även att bortse från rasismens påverkan på den kognitiva och materiella processen inom västerländska samhällen, skriver Adrián Groglopo och menar att även experterna på terror är en del av den processen.

Prohibiting Sex Purchasing and Ending Trafficking : The Swedish Prostitution Law
- 2011
-
Ingår i: Michigan Journal of International Law. - 1052-2867. ; 33:1, s. 133-157
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Swedish prostitution law from 1999, now followed by Norway and Iceland, criminalized the purchaser and decriminalized the prostituted person. This is analyzed as a cogent state response under international trafficking law, particularly to the obligations set forth in the United Nation’s Trafficking Protocol from 2000. The Protocol states that a person is regarded a trafficking victim when, e.g., someone abuses her “position of vulnerability” in order to exploit her. International jurisprudence and social evidence strongly suggest that prostitution, as practiced in the world, usually satisfies this definition. Further, the Protocol urges states to reduce the demand for prostitution and to protect and assist victims, for instance by adopting laws deterring purchasers of sex, and by supporting those exploited in prostitution. Policy makers, such as the U.S. Department of State, are criticized for taking an inadequate position in face of the growing evidence from the Swedish law's impact.The article shows that Sweden has significantly reduced the occurrence of trafficking in Sweden compared to neighboring countries. It also scrutinizes some misinformation of the law's impact, showing for instance that claims alleging a more dangerous situation for those still in prostitution after 1999 were unfounded. In addition, the article addresses remaining obstacles to the law's effective implementation, arguing that in order to realize the law's full potential to support escape from trafficking, the civil rights of prostituted persons under current law should be strengthened to enable them to claim damages directly from the purchasers for the harm to which they have contributed, and for the violation of the prostituted persons' equality and dignity - a position now recognized by the government to some extent by clarifying amendments made in 2011.

Residents' collective strategies of resistance in Global South cities' informal settlements: Space, scale and knowledge
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Cities. - : Elsevier BV. - 0264-2751. ; 125
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper examines the strategies of resistance articulated by residents of informal settlements response to urban exclusion. Building upon resistance and urban social movements literature the paper is informed by the case of the Villa Rodrigo Bueno in Buenos Aires, a self-constructed villa miseria, and its residents' stories of resistance to attempts of evictions and upgrading programs. In the paper we show how resistance is mobilized, first through its simultaneous disconnection, due to its remoteness and isolation; and reconnection to local and global supportive networks. While disconnection facilitated self-construction, densification and the blooming of informal entrepreneurship; reconnection through relational and multiscalar sites enabled unexpected encounters with distant actors that contributed to resist evictions. Second, the long-term learning and development of self-knowledge (i.e. construction, or housing law), embedded in the remoteness of the informal settlement, contributed to shift expertise from city officers to residents; redefining the role of informal residents into active citizens and experts in policy making, and turning informal settlements into settings of wider social change.

A means to an end : Using political satire to go viral

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- With the rise of video sharing giants like Youtube and Google Video, coupled with increased broadband connectivity and improved sharing functionality across social networking sites, the role of the viral video has been cemented in many IMC strategies. While most agree about the importance of better understanding viral marketing, there is less agreement about what makes content become viral. While some content gets viewed by millions of people, others struggle to gain viral traction. Content specific, intrapersonal and interpersonal reasons have been proposed for viral marketing success. This paper' focuses on the intrapersonal reasons for content going viral in the context of political satire. More specifically, the role of emotion in the spread of content online, is investigated. Political satire focuses on gaining entertainment from politics. Satire, and specifically political satire, forms part of using humour in advertising and has been influential in shifting public opinion since ancient Greece. This study compares success and unsuccessful viral campaigns that used political satire, by first analysing the online comments that viewers made about the video. Following these findings, an experiment is conducted and the influence of intensity, creativity, humour and utility on virality is modelled, controlling for valence and previous exposure. The findings suggest that, when using political satire in viral campaigns, creativity and the intensity of the emotions felt are key influencing factors in whether videos get "shared" or "liked". Therefore, while many authors contend that particular emotions or positive content has a greater likelihood to become viral, this paper shows that it is not the particular emotion, but the intensity with which that emotion was felt that drives viral success.

Coloniality and decolonisation in the Nordic region: An introduction
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Groglopo, Adrián & Julia Suárez-Krabbe (2023).Coloniality and Decolonisation in the Nordic Region. Routledge: New York.. - New York : Routledge - Taylor & Francis Group. - 9781032274867 ; , s. 1-21
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This chapter aims to further fruitful conversations about the meaning and implications of coloniality, decoloniality and decolonization in the Nordic region. Such a collective endeavour cannot bypass the perspectives and historical experience of people in the Nordic region who are produced as non-belonging, absent, criminal and/or barbaric in general, including ‘non-Western’ migrants and refugees, Afro-Nordics and Muslim communities, as well as the Romani and the indigenous communities of the region such as the Sami and Inuit. However, much of the decolonial scholarship in the Nordic region approaches coloniality through a poststructuralist and postcolonial lens and reproduces the coloniality of knowledge by ignoring and depoliticizing the radical political concepts and projects emanating the abovementioned peoples in the Nordic region and the colonized regions of the world, resulting in undertheoretization. On this basis, the chapter argues for the need of reclaiming the political, which involves theorizing the materiality of colonial politics in contemporary Nordic societies, including its imperial investments and political economy.
