Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Swedish coastal fisheries are not sustainable in terms of the status of their main fish stocks, their economic profitability, and as source of regular employment. Social sustainability commitments in fisheries governance advocated by the Voluntary Guidelines for Securing Sustainable Small-Scale Fisheries (SSF Guidelines) have been so far mostly neglected. In this chapter, we bring attention to two institutional settings at different governance levels relevant for the implementation of the SSF Guidelines in the Swedish context. First, we look at the introduction of social goals under the perspective of the EU’s Common Fisheries Policy (CFP). Second, we consider national tensions between forces advocating or opposing a further application of market-based economic instruments, often portrayed as an effective cure for all ills, in fisheries governance. Taking into account the logic on which the SSF Guidelines rest, we evaluate in both cases current processes for stakeholder participation in the formulation of fishing policies and strategies in Sweden. We conclude that the inclusion of a social dimension and stakeholder involvement at the EU level face procedural and institutional limitations that prevent the small-scale fisheries sector from exploiting opportunities for change. Further challenges to the implementation of the SSF Guidelines arise when central national authorities’ interpretation of societal benefits opposes other interpretations, and consequently economic calculations take precedence over a participatory process-based, knowledge-accumulating approach to resource management. The SSF Guidelines, therefore, provide important material and intellectual resources to make the most of new chances that can lead to an increased likelihood of change in the direction of sustainable coastal fisheries in Sweden.

Cultural policy as a governmental proxy tool for improved health : The Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare’s collaborations with cultural workers 1970–1975
- 2021
-
Ingår i: The International Journal of Cultural Policy. - : Taylor & Francis Group. - 1028-6632 .- 1477-2833. ; 27:5, s. 667-682

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article highlights cultural policy as a governmental proxy to address political matters beyond the cultural domain – here civil health – and the need to problematize and historicize ‘arts in health’ policies. The article centres on the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare’s collaborations with cultural workers 1970–1975, framed by three contextual developments: politicization of the cultural sector, call for innovative governmental information, and changing character of health information. Theoretically, the article draws from the field of cultural policy research, with an emphasis on historiographical perspectives. The result shows that despite interdependence, the collaborations were an arena where interests clashed. The main conflict lay in what art should seek to change for the better: society or its citizens? However, the conflicts were also due to a mixture of roles: the agency suddenly found itself a patron of the arts, and the cultural workers producers of governmental information.

Dilemman med transgena djur : forskningspraktik och etik
- 2010
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Under senare år har vi i Sverige sett en minskning av djurförsök. Denna trend gäller dock inte transgena djur, det vill säga djur som på olika sätt förändrats i arvsmassan, något som tvärtom ökar. verksamheten skapar en rad frågeställningar. Det handlar om moraliska och andra dilemman som är en del av all djurförsökshantering. Vi människor tar oss trots allt rätten att använda andra djur för att förbättra oss själva. Men verksamheten skapar också vissa specifika och ibland svårhanterliga frågeställningar som hänger ihop med att djuren är genmodifierade, som oförutsägbara eller för djuret svåra konsekvenser av modifieringen. Transgens djur - framför allt är det möss som används - utmanar också en rad etablerade kulturella gränser; mellan olika arter, mellan vetenskap och teknologi samt mellan organism och uppfinning. I denna publikation, ett resultat från projektet Dilemman med transgena djur, undersöks hur forskare, djurförsökstekniker och ledamöter i djurförsöksetiska nämnder, hanterar dessa dilemman.

Perceptions of participation and the role of gender for the engagement in solar energy communities in Sweden
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Energy, Sustainability and Society. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 2192-0567. ; 11:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Energy communities are emphasized by the EU as important for developing sustainable energy systems that include and engage many people. While many renewables are highly compatible with a more decentralized energy system, research indicates that participation in 'desirable' energy activities and energy decision-making is influenced by social and economic factors, including gender, economic status and home ownership. The overall aim of this article is to contribute to this line of inquiry by exploring how and under which conditions energy communities allow for broader participation in the energy system. This article examines how gender, as a more specific condition, influences the extent to which parties can or cannot engage with collective solar ownership models by means of a qualitative study of 11 solar energy communities and one housing association in Sweden.Results: The study revealed that despite the relative potential for inclusion that they hold, energy communities can raise justice concerns in terms of inequities concerning access, capacity, and opportunity to engage in decision-making.Conclusions: While solely focusing on gender offers a limited view of the dynamics of inclusion and exclusion in renewable energy projects, it is our position that integrating it into the analysis will provide insights into possible measures to remedy limitations and accelerate the renewable energy transition.

Writing resistance together
- 2020

Ingår i: Gender, Work and Organization. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 0968-6673 .- 1468-0432. ; 27:4, s. 447-470
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This piece of writing is a joint initiative by the participants in the Gender, Work and Organization writing workshop organized in Helsinki, Finland, in June 2019. This is a particular form of writing differently. We engage in collective writing and embody what it means to write resistance to established academic practices and conventions together. This is a form of emancipatory initiative where we care for each other as writers and as human beings. There are many author voices and we aim to keep the text open and dialogical. As such, this piece of writing is about suppressed thoughts and feelings that our collective picket line allows us to express. In order to maintain the open-ended nature of the text, and perhaps also to retain some 'dirtiness' that is essential to writing, the article has not been language checked throughout by a native speaker of English.

Breaking the silence : Voicing teachers’ exposure to identity-based exclusionary processes at workplace
- 2023
-
Ingår i: The 1st work science meeting. - : Malmö universitet. - 9789178774302 ; , s. 4-5

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The study explores thirty compulsory schoolteachers’ experiences of exposure to exclusionary behaviour and comments by fellow colleagues, students, or their legal guardians at the workplace. Using analytic terms exclusionary processes and intersectionality, and by interviewing teachers who have experienced exclusion due to norms concerning gender, sexuality, ethnicity, race, and religion, I will answer following research questions: How do teachers experience exclusion and how does it affect them? What makes exclusion at workplace possible and how can one act on it? Of particular interest is subtle exclusion, as it is hard to detect and has been neglected be professionals and Swedish researchers, despite the evidence of high rate of occurrence and negative psychological, social, and professional consequences. Theoretical inspiration comes from research on intersectionality and microaggressions in the workplace. The study is based on interviews with teachers, who have volunteered to talk about their own experiences of exclusionary processes. The interviewees, working in different educational settings, define, describe, and are asked to problematize and contextualize exclusionary processes that affect them. The study shows that the interviewees are subjected to exclusionary processes because they do not occupy normative position in the local context. Gender-based exclusionary processes are often interdependent of several identity-based power differentials that may or may not operate simultaneously (for example age, gender, ethnicity and educational background or whiteness norms, religion, and gender may intersect each other, reinforcing or weakening different power axes). Additionally, the interviewed teachers express that there is a lack of institutional support for change, highlighting the importance of developing analytical tools to understand and eventually tackle subtle exercises of exclusionary power. Nowhere in the analyzed empirical material has there been talk of attempts at collective action where the teachers join or themselves organize social movements and act collectively, even though, according to Bonilla-Silva (2018), these forms of resistance make the largest impact in terms of changing social structures of exclusion. The lack of collective action and institutional support highlights the need for a paradigm shift.

Att dansa i otakt med väljarna : Socialdemokraternas och Moderaternas strategiska bemötande av Sverigedemokraterna
- 2010
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Etablerade partiers strategiska bemötande av radikala högerpopulistiska partier (RHP-partier) står i fokus för avhandlingen. Syftet med avhandlingen är rekonstruktion och analys av innehållet i de etablerade partiernas strategiska bemötande av partier som anses utmana centrala principer inom den liberala demokratin, såsom pluralism och tolerans, och vars närvaro också anses skapa ett demokratiskt dilemma. Syftet har operationaliserats inom ramen för en svensk kontext med fokus på Socialdemokraternas och Moderaternas strategiska bemötande av ett svenskt RHP-parti i form av Sverigedemokraterna. Det metodologiska ramverket utgår från ett kvalitativt perspektiv med fokus på intervjuer med representanter för de två etablerade partierna och Sverigedemokraterna. Det empiriska materialet har analyserats med hjälp av PSO-teorin (Position, Salience and Owner-ship theory). Teorin visar hur de etablerade partiernas strategiska bemötande av RHP-partier kan relateras till l) den specifika sakfråga RHP-partiet politiserar och 2) till vilken grad RHP-partiet hotar de etablerade partierna i fråga om väljarstöd. Avhandlingens resultat visar att innehållet i de etablerade partiernas strategiska bemötande av Sverigedemokraterna har fOrändrats sedan valet 2006 och att den sakfråga som Sverigedemokraterna politiserat, flykting- och invandringsfrågan, är central för utformningen av de etablerade partiernas bemötande av partiet.

Australia's Post-war Immigration: Institutional and Social Science Research
- 2003
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper, which is work-in-progress, provides an initial review of the theoretical traditions adopted by immigration researchers in Australia over the past fifty years or so. Many researchers have played a vital role in the development of both entrance and settlement policies while others have carried out social science research that has remained quite distinct from policy needs. The social sciences have not only contributed ideas and systematic knowledge to the development of policy, they have also provided systematic data and critical analysis which has countered misleading populist beliefs about such issues as economic growth, unemployment and institutional racism. In Australia, social scientists have been influenced by the theoretical paradigms that are dominant in their disciplines at the time of their research. In some cases, a theoretical tradition such as that of assimilation (following the Chicago School) coincided with the common sense ideologies held by the society at large. At other times, as with the introduction of multiculturalism, social scientists provided the theoretical foundations for what was considered a necessary basis for a culturally plural society.

"När han är arg är han turkisk". Identitetsskapande i Lin Hallbergs kompisbokstrilogi

Ingår i: EDUCARE. - : Malmö högskola, Lärarutbildningen. - 1653-1868 .- 2004-5190. ; 4:1, s. 7-25
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- With a background in current theories of identification and identifying processes, our aim is to study how ideologies of identity interpellate children in narrative texts such as Lin Hallberg’s trilogy of Kompisboken, Bästisboken and Svikarboken. We study how the texts offer, mirror and perform various identities in their characterization of children and adults in a multicultural context. The issue is how the different characters are created through chains of articulation, of equivalence and difference, of properties, actions and performances. The four main child characters are construed around two dyads – male and female, native and foreign – and as well as the minor characters – parents and teachers – they display subject positions which are restricted and basically locked in a normative matrix. Thus, these texts do not afford children alternative identity constructions or resistance to stereotypical identities of gender or ethnicity.
