  • Advertising old(er) men : Swedish old(er) men reflect on "seeing themselves”

    • Adverts tell a story and comprise images that old men encounter in their everyday 5 lives, and which provide popular scripts on ageing masculinity. This chapter focuses 6 on old men’s own understandings of advertising and their depictions of old men. 7 Focus group interviews with Swedish old men, aged between 65 and 92, were 8 conducted, with commercial adverts featuring old men used as visual prompts to 9 invite discussions on masculinity and ageing. The advertising shown reflects both 10 negative and overtly ageist images, and images of the so-called successfully ageing 11 old man; adverts appealing to identification and aspiration, adverts inciting laughter 12 and appreciation, and adverts creating a sense of resistance or rejection. Different 13 readings of the shown adverts emerged, which point to the polysemic nature of media 14 texts. The chapter discusses prominent themes from the transcribed and coded focus 15 group interviews, on embodied ageing, ageing in different stages of life, masculinity 16 and societal changes in terms of gender equality and the role and status of old men.

  • Affirmative Old Age : the Ageing body and Feminist theories on Difference
  • 2013
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Ageing and Later Life. - : Linköping University Electronic Press. - 1652-8670. ; 8:1, s. 11-40
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Discourses on old age and ageing are framed in narrow and binary ways, either as a decline narrative or through discourses of positive and successful ageing. The decline narrative, on the one hand, is highly centred on the decline of the ageing body as frail, leaky and unbounded, and on how old age is characterized by non-productivity, increasing passivity and dependency. Discourses on successful ageing, on the other hand, rely heavily on neo-liberal imperatives of activity, autonomy and responsibility. In successful ageing the specificities of ageing bodies are largely overlooked while the capacity of the old person to retain a youthful body, e.g. with the aid of sexuopharmaceuticals, is celebrated.  This article argues for the need of a theorizing of old age that goes beyond the binaries of decline and success. Drawing on the work of feminist corpomaterialists Rosi Braidotti and Elisabeth Grosz, the article proposes affirmative old age as an alternative conceptualization of old age. As a theoretical project, affirmative old age aims to acknowledge the material specificities of the ageing body and is an attempt to theorize the ageing body in terms of difference but without understanding it as a body marked by decline, lack or negation.

  • Ancient monuments, mature men and those popping amphetamine : researching the lives of older men
  • 2007
  • Ingår i: NORMA : Nordic journal of masculinity studies. - 1890-2138. ; 2:2, s. 86-108
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Research attention on older men and masculinities has been relatively scant. What has been written on older men has, however, often lacked a feminist and critical perspective. This article outlines some of the previous research and suggests a turn to feminist and queer theory to grasp the complexity of older men-s lives more fully. A crucial issue is how old age both may be a source of power for men and may marginalise men. Drawing on interviews with two men aged 73 and 75, and theoretical insights from gender studies, the article discusses the themes of bodies, sexuality, maturity and older men-s construction of the self as autonomous and individual. Clearly, the lives of older men must be understood intersectionally whereby ability and disability play key roles. In conclusion, the article suggests a turn a way from an assimilationist approach to ageing and older people, and towards seeing the possibilities of norm-breaking by older men.

  • Backward, Dumb and Violent Hillbillies? : Rural Geographies and Intersectional Studies on Intimate Partner Violence
  • 2013
  • Ingår i: Affilia. - : Sage Publications. - 0886-1099 .- 1552-3020. ; 28:4, s. 350-365
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Urban and rural geographies should be further included in feminist intersectional research on intimate partner violence. The article reviews existing research on the challenges facing rural victims of IPV. This research makes visible the specific problems rurality imposes on victims of IPV. However, research on rural IPV risks being misused and subsequently reinforcing othering and stereotypes of rurality and rural inhabitants. The article suggests that researchers alternate between intra- and anti-categorical approaches. On the one hand rural victims of IPV should be analysed as a neglected point of intersection, and on the other the diversity of ruralities should be acknowledged.

  • Being there for my grandchild : grandparents’ responses to their grandchildren’s exposure to domestic violence
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Child & Family Social Work. - : Wiley-Blackwell. - 1356-7500 .- 1365-2206. ; 21:2, s. 136-145
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Grandparents whose grandchildren are exposed to domestic violence are faced with some unique challenges in their grandparenting, which have thus far been little discussed in research. This paper discusses the narratives of 10 Swedish grandparents whose grandchildren have been exposed to violence towards their mother. The aim was to explore grandparents’ narrations of their responses in the face of violence, and their understanding of the role they play in their gran- dchildren’s social networks. Two significant responses are discussed: ‘being there’ and ‘acknowledging the independence and self- determination of the adult children’. Grandparents experienced these responses as contradictory and felt powerless when it came to their possibilities to protect their grandchildren. The paper suggests that grandparents could be a resource for domestic violence services, and social work practice needs to assess the roles of grandparents of children exposed to domestic violence. Social workers should con- sider the challenges these grandparents are facing and what support they may need in order to support their grandchildren.

  • Bouncing off Ove : Old men's readings of the novel A Man Called Ove as a cultural representation of ageing masculinity
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Journal of Aging Studies. - : Elsevier. - 0890-4065 .- 1879-193X. ; 63
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • In recent years, there has been a rise in portrayals of greying protagonists in popular fiction, often featuring older people in humorous and heart-warming stories. An emerging genre within this literature is the “geezer and grump lit”, a genre where older people are active protagonists, and while often portrayed as grumpy “’usually turn out to have a heart of gold’” (Swinnen, 2019). A notable example of a book in this genre is the internationally bestselling novel A Man Called Ove (2012) by the Swedish author Fredrik Backman. Telling the story of the 59-year-old Ove who sets out to take his own life, the novel can be understood not only as a cultural representation of ageing, but more specifically a cultural representation of ageing masculinity. But how is this popular novel read and responded to by old men themselves? This article builds on a focus group study with Swedish men aged 65–92 who read and discussed A Man Called Ove. The aim of this article is thus to explore how men read the novel and how these readings function as ways of constructing, negotiating and challenging ageing masculinity and the old man as a gendered and aged position. Findings of the study show how discussion of the novel generated a variety of “imaginary positions” through which the participants made sense of what it means to be an old man in contemporary Sweden, including positions such as the active aspiring ageing man, the passive lonely old man, the embodied and vulnerable old man, and the dutiful old man. Future research should explore how other literary genres may provide ways of understanding how old men's gendered and aged subjectivities are constructed.

  • Caught In Between : Grandparents Responding to Violence and Negotiating Family Roles and Responsibilities
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Response Based Approaches to the Study of Interpersonal Violence. - London : Palgrave Macmillan. - 9781137409539 ; , s. 98-114
  • Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Interpersonal violence has been the focus of research within the social sciences for some considerable time. Yet inquiries about the causes of interpersonal violence and the effects on the victims have dominated the field of research and clinical practice. Central to the contributions in this volume is the idea that interpersonal violence is a social action embedded in responses from various actors. These include actions, words and behaviour from friends and family, ordinary citizens, social workers and criminal justice professionals. These responses, as the contributors to this volume all show, make a difference in terms of how violence is understood, resisted and come to terms with in its immediate aftermath and over the longer term. Bringing together an international network of scholars and practitioners from a range of disciplines and fields of practice, this book maps and expands research on interpersonal violence. In doing so, it opens an important new terrain on which social responses to violence can be fully interrogated in terms of their intentions, meanings and outcomes.
