Kunskap, motstånd, möjlighet : Humanistisk forskning idag
- 2017. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Humanioras roll är delvis omstridd i dag. Vad har humanistisk forskning för relevans i samhället? Denna antologi rymmer ett brett spektrum av texter som visar att humaniora kan ha flera olika uppgifter i samhället och se ut på varierande sätt. Den traditionella bilden av humaniora håller långsamt på att ersättas av något nytt där en ökad mångfald av perspektiv och en vändning mot det praktiska är två framträdande karakteristika. Inom det humanistiska forskningsfältet, vilket speglas i texterna, påträffas allt från traditionellt kunskapssökande till samhällskritiska studier, vilka uttrycker ett motstånd mot rådande ordningar. I antologin återfinns också, såsom en del av den nyorientering som kan anas, bidrag som berör frågan hur det framtida samhället kan gestaltas.

On the Disciplinary Affordances of Semiotic Resources

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the late 70’s Gibson (1979) introduced the concept of affordance. Initially framed around the needs of an organism in its environment, over the years the term has been appropriated and debated at length by a number of researchers in various fields. Most famous, perhaps is the disagreement between Gibson and Norman (1988) about whether affordances are inherent properties of objects or are only present when they are perceived by an organism. More recently, affordance has been drawn on in the educational arena, particularly with respect to multimodality (see Linder (2013) for a recent example). Here, Kress et al. (2001) have claimed that different modes have different specialized affordances. Then, building on this idea, Airey and Linder (2009) suggested that there is a critical constellation of modes that students need to achieve fluency in before they can experience a concept in an appropriate disciplinary manner. Later, Airey (2009) nuanced this claim, shifting the focus from the modes themselves to a critical constellation of semiotic resources, thus acknowledging that different semiotic resources within a mode often have different affordances (e.g. two or more diagrams may form the critical constellation).In this theoretical paper the concept of disciplinary affordance (Fredlund et al., 2012) is suggested as a useful analytical tool for use in education. The concept makes a radical break with the views of both Gibson and Norman in that rather than focusing on the discernment of one individual, it refers to the disciplinary community as a whole. Put simply, the disciplinary affordances of a given semiotic resource are determined by those functions that the resource is expected to fulfil by the disciplinary community. Disciplinary affordances have thus been negotiated and developed within the discipline over time. As such, the question of whether these affordances are inherent or discerned becomes moot. Rather, from an educational perspective the issue is whether the meaning that a semiotic resource affords to an individual matches the disciplinary affordance assigned by the community. The power of the term for educational work is that learning can now be framed as coming to discern the disciplinary affordances of semiotic resources.In this paper we will briefly discuss the history of the term affordance, define the term disciplinary affordance and illustrate its usefulness in a number of educational settings.

The (educational) meaning of religion as a quality of liberal democratic citizenship
- 2016

Ingår i: Journal of Curriculum Studies. - : Routledge. - 0022-0272 .- 1366-5839. ; 48:2, s. 151-166

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Religion has become a prominent issue in times of pluralism and in relation to citizenship in school and in society. As religious education (RE) is assigned to be one of the main school subject where issues of what religion is are to be raised, RE teachers’ conceptualizations of religion are of vital concern to investigate. In this article, RE teachers’ descriptions of ‘religion’ are scrutinized and analysed in terms of implications for citizenship with special regard to the role of RE. Three vital conceptions of religion emerge in teachers’ descriptions. First, religion is mainly individual or private, secondly, it denotes ethical guidance, and thirdly, it relates to sociocultural systems for thinking. Taken together, these conceptualizations share two characteristics about religion: religion as being individual-centred and private, and religion as being mind oriented. Out of this analysis, we discuss the role of religion and RE in contemporary liberal democratic life in society. The discussion is concluded by addressing two key things; the importance of the RE teacher as a curriculum maker, and the importance of religion and RE as active interventions in today’s contemporary discussion about pluralism in liberal democratic societies.

The performance of tradition : An ethnography of Hira Gasy popular theatre in Madagascar
- 1997
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study deals with the popular theatre performance of Hira Gasy, and its actors andaudiences in the central highland regions of Imerina and northern Betsileo in Madagascar. The Hira Gasy has developed from a court to a rural performance during the last two centuries, a period influenced by first the British and then by the French presence in the country. Today, the performances are given in diverse contexts, the most common being in connection with reburial ceremonies. The Hira Gasy troupes all have a common form of their performance, with speeches, songs, acrobatics, dance and music, while the content is unique for each troupe, although given in a culturally recognized form. The study is based on 19 months of fieldwork divided into five periods between1991 and 1996. The main argument is that the Hira Gasy performances provide a forumin which the problems of identification and belonging are discussed. The `foreigner' isused as a `mirror image' for the rural and the poor in their aims to assert and shape theirsense of belonging in a changing society. The symbols of identification - the ancestralland, the common tomb, and the family solidarity - are felt to be threatened by increasingindividualization and the decrease in the fulfillment of the ancestral duties. For the ruralpoor their feelings of marginality and powerlessness in relation to the economically andpolitically powerful urban elite are expressed in Hira Gasy. Through the practice ofcustom they sustain their moral dignity, which is one of the most important means inorder to remain malagasy. The Hira Gasy performances are indigenious arenas for existential and moral discussions, and for providing a sense of belonging in a problematic reality shaped by both the `way of the ancestors' and the `way of the foreign'.

Normal forms in total correctness for while programs and action systems
- 2011

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A classical while-program normal-form theorem is derived in demonic refinement algebra. In contrast to Kozen's partial-correctness proof of the theorem in Kleene algebra with tests, the derivation in demonic refinement algebra provides a proof that the theorem holds in total correctness. A normal form for action systems is also discussed.

Vad gäller saken? : statusläran som verktyg för retorisk argumentationsanalys
- 2005

Ingår i: Rhetorica Scandinavica. - 1397-0534 .- 2002-7974. ; :33, s. 33-45

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Den klassiska statusläran erbjuder ett förbisett redskap för retorisk argumentationsanalys – ett redskap som kan användas för att beskriva och analysera offentlig oenighet av många olika slag. Inte minst kan den användas för att analysera kampen om vem som ska få tillskrivas värdeladdade begrepp som ”manlighet”, ”frihet” och ”demokrati”, men i förlängningen också kampen om hur dessa begrepp ska definieras. Artikeln syftar till att tydliggöra denna användbarhet i ett antal tänkta analysexempel, men avslutas också med en kort analys av ett verkligt fall: debatten om den svenska vänsterpartiledaren Lars Ohlys förhållande till demokratin i TV-programmet Uppdrag granskning.
