- Title: Where “the wild things” are: An author of children’s books on a visit to the suburbs Abstract:Few studies have been carried out on children’s literature from a post-colonial perspective. In this article, we look closer at four picture books recently published in Sweden with the purpose of giving children from urban areas patterns of identification. The aim of our study is to see how the ‘suburb’ is articulated as a multi-accented sign. Three themes are elaborated in our analysis, i.e. loneliness and alienation, drug abuse and misery as well as small business occurrence. We also discuss the consequences for children in early years of an encounter with a distorted or alienated view of suburban culture.

- The aim of this article is to describe how experince-based knowledge can be made visible by giving some examples of how this has been done in Swedish social welfare services, in collaborations between social services agencies and research and development (R&D) units. These examples will be linked to theories and discussed in relation to different research utilisation models. By using one of these models, it is argued that R&D activities can broaden the concept of evidence-based practice and help brigde the gap between research and practice.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Our aim in this paper is to analyse the impact of the standardised test on classroom practices in grade 5 in a compulsory school in western Sweden. In our analysis, the use of the concept of pedagogic device provides a framework for understanding hos high-stakes, standardised testing regulates classroom discourse and teachers' and students' classroom behaviours. The study was conducted during 2006-2007 as part of a larger ethnographic inquiry. The results reveal how the demands of the test impact upon the daily work in the classroom. In the neo-liberal apporach to governance, stnadardised tests have become an important measure of quality. School practices run the risk of being viewed as valuable, only relative to the performance of teachers and students at the individueal level. This view shifts the focus from a discussion about a societal responsibility to ensure that all children have equitable access to education, to a debate centred on the individualäs responsibility to perform. The analysis reveals that the test was not carried out as intended. However, both teacher and the students respond to the test situation and the results as if it had been and as if the test really mattered.

Internationalisation in teacher education : student teachers’ reflections on experiences from a field study in South Africa

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Internationalisation of higher education and teacher education has been a key issue since the 1990s and many universities still attempt to increase student mobility ever since. Much research has been done on the topic of internationalisation and higher education, including teacher education trying to show how a certain programme impacts on students’ learning, especially intercultural learning when it comes to programmes in teacher education. These studies are often directed towards programmes that last several months or a whole year. The focus of this study is rather to explore if and in what way experiences in a two-week field study can contribute to a student teacher’s intercultural learning and professional development. The findings of the research show that even a short field study has an important impact on the individual student teacher’s understanding of themselves and on awareness of teachers’ living and working conditions in a different culture like South Africa.

Chefers strategier för att implementera samverkan
- 2016
-
Rapport (refereegranskat)abstract
- Den här studien handlar om interorganisatorisk samverkan inom vård och omsorg. Här studeras vilka strategier som första och andra linjens kommunala chefer använder för att få till stånd en fungerande samverkan. Hur ser hindren ut och vilka strategier och överväganden gör cheferna för att övervinna dem. Den fråga som därför behandlas i denna rapport är; vilka strategier an-vänder kommunala chefer inom vård och omsorg för att implementera samverkan? I studien har data samlats in genom att 21 chefer inom vård och omsorg intervjuats. De chefer som medverkat i studien har alla varit verksamma i kommuner som deltagit i det Nationella kommunforskningsprogrammet, vilka är Borås, Göteborg, Lund, Norrköping, Piteå, Sjöbo och Stockholm. I studien har tre centrala iakttagelser gjorts. Dessa handlar om; 1) att cheferna väljer en form av situationsanpassad strategi beroende på vad sam-verkan har för syfte och med vilka aktörer som samverkan ska genomföras, 2) att cheferna behöver hantera den upplevda intressekonflikten som finns mellan att ta ansvar för den "egna verksamheten" samtidigt som de förväntas ta ansvar för samverkan med andra organisationer och 3) att cheferna har svårt att hantera sitt chefsansvar vid samverkan. Samverkan där linjestyrningen utmanas eller kompletteras med horisontell styrning är lösare reglerad vilket kan leda till oklar ansvarsfördelning och diffus arbetsdelning. Här kan chefer behöva tillägna sig andra uttryck för att utöva sitt ledarskap då den traditionella chefsrollen inte är lika väl anpassad till styrning vid samverkans-situationer.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The decentralisation of Swedish healthcare closer to citizens has been slow. Drawing from empirical material of the reform prior and amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, this paper argues that the pandemic has disrupted the healthcare ecosystem. Consequently, citizen-centred collaborations have accelerated integration of resources (such as knowledge and skills) across organisational, hierarchical and professional borders. However, collaborations have been delimited to traditional healthcare providers, neglecting the resources of citizens and other actors to be used to improve service delivery. The pandemic has revealed strengths and weaknesses with the prevailing healthcare ecosystem that post-COVID-19 public management must address, both theoretically and practically. Theoretically, the paper contributes to the development of a public service logic, addressing both strengths and difficulties with the logic in turbulent times. Practically, the empirical descriptions contribute to improved understanding of public service delivery reform and how it is impacted during the pandemic. © 2021 The Authors.
