Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article shows how autobiographies of famous, socially well-established men (re)produce hegemonic masculinity through narratives of offending; how masculine performance is age graded; and that masculinity constructions are accomplished both via what is said and what is not said. The autobiographies of the footballer Zlatan Ibrahimović, the former high jumper Patrik Sjöberg and Sweden’s most famous criminologist, Professor Leif G.W. Persson, are analysed. Common to all three is that they openly describe a variety of crimes they have committed. These three men are highly respected in Sweden and none of them is considered as “a criminal” in general opinion. This article shows that crime can be a resource for doing masculinity even for famous, successful and highly respected men. The crime narratives in these autobiographies tell us something about the culturally accepted representations of masculinity that may not just pass as possible, but even as desirable.

Sustainable enterprise theory : a good life for all

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter develops a theory of sustainable enterprises, sustainable enterprise theory (SET), which can only be a valid theory if knowledge about life and nature is complete. Knowledge limitations should not stop enterprises from doing business with a goal of better long-term life on earth. Life demands stewardship of the resources used during one’s lifetime. This chapter develops a model influenced by enterprise theory and resource theory that includes more than money in the business activities of an enterprise. The SET model is used in analyses of accountability, management and in discussions about sustainable business organizations activities.

Den svenska tryggheten : En studie av en kriminalpolitisk symbol

- Public safety in Sweden. A study of a crime policy symbolPublic safety has become an increasingly important part of crime policy debates in the Western countries. In Sweden, the concepts of trygghet (safety) and its negative counterpart otrygghet (insecurity) are often used in discussions about public safety and fear of crime. In this article, I argue that in order to understand Swedish crime policy, the symbolic meaning of these concepts cannot be overlooked. The political debates on public safety preceding the general elections in 2006, 2010 and 2014 are analysed with reference to three political parties: the Social Democratic party, the Conservative Party (Moderaterna) and the Sweden Democrats. By analysing the concept of safety (trygghet) as a condensation symbol, with its imaginative potential stemming from the historically strong relation between safety and the welfare state, this article illustrates how political solutions within the crime policy field are depicted as benign and universal. The article further explores how the political usage of the concept of safety generates feelings of ”national pride” to the general public.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Dagens redovisningsreglering i såväl Europa som USA kan bäst beskrivas som en ”ramreglering”. Inom dessa ramar finns det möjligheter för företagsledningar att utifrån egna bedömningar påverka räkenskaperna via olika sorters redovisningsval. Anläggningstillgångar, tex byggnader och maskiner, ska (enligt rådande redovisningsreglering) skrivas av, men det är i praktiken ledningen som avgör avskrivningstakten. Tanken är att ledningen känner verksamheten bäst och att det därför att rimligt att ledningen avgör exempelvis i vilken takt tillgångar ska skrivas av. Om ledningen gör sitt yttersta för att ge en rättvisande bild av företagets resultat och ställning kan ledningens inflytande över redovisningen - via de ovan nämnda redovisningsvalen - potentiellt höja redovisningens kvalitet. Men om ledningen å andra sidan utnyttjar möjligheten att via redovisningsval påverka räkenskaperna i en viss riktning i enlighet med en given (på förhand bestämd) agenda kan ledningens handledningsutrymme påverka redovisningens kvalitet negativt; företagets resultat och ställning riskerar då att - pga manipulering - bli mindre rättvisande (och i värsta fall missvisande). Tidigare forskning visar på förekomsten av redovisningsmanipulering. I det här kapitlet redogörs för tänkbara orsaker till att redovisningen manipuleras. Därefter fokuseras på vilken betydelse kopplingen mellan redovisning och beskattning har för redovisningsmanipuleringen. Eller annorlunda uttryckt; leder en starkare koppling mellan redovisning och beskattning till mer eller mindre manipulation av redovisningen? Kan det tex vara så att en starkare koppling mellan redovisning och beskattning disciplinerar företagen/ledningen så att manipuleringen blir mindre omfattande?

A systematic review of the research on telework and organizational economic performance indicators
- 2022
-
Ingår i: Frontiers in Psychology. - : Frontiers. - 1664-1078. ; 13

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Introduction: A systematic review is conducted in the study to investigate the relationship between telework and organizational economic performance indicators such as self-reported employee performance, organizational performance, actual employee turnover rates, or intentions.Methods: The databases Scopus, Business Source Premier, and Web of Science were used to conduct a literature search. Original articles published from 2000 and up to May 2021 were selected. Studies were screened for inclusion independently by review pairs and data were extracted. The Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT) was used to evaluate the quality of the studies included.Results: Forty-three studies were included with some addressing multiple outcomes. Self-reported performance was higher for teleworking employees compared to those working in the ordinary workplace. The extent of the change in performance was dependent on individual characteristics and the extent of the teleworking practice in the organization. Telework was also associated with increased organizational performance, particularly in homogenous samples with unique work tasks. When telework is voluntary, it appears that both actual employee turnover rates and intentions to leave the organization are lower.Discussion: Further research with high-quality prospective designs is necessary to properly understand the contribution of telework to organizational economic performance indicators.

Street-gang violence in Sweden is a growing concern

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Over the past 30 years, Sweden has witnessed a growth in criminal gangs. Gun violence among young males is also on the rise and have only recently gained wide political attention. Street gangs and gun violence are two prevalent, partially overlapping phenomena that constitute social challenges. Empirically supported legal, policy and practical frameworks are needed in order to reduce the prevalence of gangs and gang violence in Sweden. The first step is to recognize that gangs and gang violence are an emerging societal problem and to identify its root causes, organizational dimensions, and operational patterns. In this note, Swedish street gangs and gang violence are briefly discussed.

- Preventing violence at work. A study of descriptions of safety measures in Swedish trade union journals 1978-2004 The purpose of this study is to examine if perceptions of interventions aimed at violence in the workplace have changed since the 1970s. In the beginning of the study period, structural factors are seen as the dominating explanation for workplace violence. The crime perspective rises in the 1990’s and methods of intervention becomes the control- and justice functions of larger society. The result shows search for accountability to be a salient factor for understanding the development towards an increasing use of penal sanctions.
