Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Denna rapport är slutprodukten av ett projektarbete inom ledarskapsprogrammet AKKA III år 2009 och undersöker den paradoxala situation som uppstår då forskargrupper fungerar som verksamhetsbärande enheter samtidigt som deras formella roll i organisationen är oklar. Detta väcker frågeställningar som är relevanta ur ett ledarskapsperspektiv: Vad är egentligen en forskargrupp? Vilka olika typer av forskargrupper finns det? Vad sker under olika forskargruppers livscykel? Hur ser könssammansättningen ut i de undersökta forskargrupperna? Vilka perspektiv på ledarskapet finns inom och ovanför forskargrupperna? Hur är ledarskap i en forskargruppskontext kopplat till genus och mångfald? Vilka kulturella föreställningar om maskulinitet och femininitet råder i detta ledarskap? Hur beskrivs och synliggörs forskargrupper av universitetet? Hur kan universitet utveckla det omgivande stödet till forskargrupperna så att deras verksamhet kan utvecklas, utan att skapa en alltför tung och kostsam byråkrati? Vi gör inte anspråk på att ge uttömmande svar på alla dessa frågor, men vi har påbörjat en faktabaserad undersökning av ovan nämnda frågeställningar som ligger till grund för den vision som detta arbete mynnar ut i. Visionen kan sammanfattas i följande tre huvudpunkter, som vidare beskrivs och diskuteras i denna rapport: (1) Synliggjorda och erkända forskargrupper (2) Omgivningens goda stöd för en fruktbar livscykel (3) Ledarskap för ett gott forskargruppsklimat

The Forest and the Trees: Industrialization, Demographic Change, and the Ongoing Gender Revolution in Sweden and the United States, 1870-2010

Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper examines the major trends unravelling the long-term gender division of family support and care structure that reached its peak in the middle of the twentieth century, often called the “worker-carer” or the “separate spheres” model. The unraveling of the “separate spheres” began with the increase in the labor force participation of married women and continues with the increase in men’s involvement with their homes and children, but its foundations were laid in the nineteenth century, with industrialization. We examine these two trends for two quite dissimilar countries, Sweden and the United States, advancing our understanding of the growth of female labor force participation and of men’s roles in the family. We show that despite shortterm stalls, slowdowns, and even reverses, as well as huge differences in policy contexts, the overall picture of increasing gender sharing in family support and care is strongly taking shape in both countries. It is clear that role specialization within the household, though theoretically important, applied only for a limited period.

Unpaid care for parents, coresidence, and psychological well-being among older working-age men and women across Europe
- 2022
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Given population aging and the emphasis on in-home care, more working-age adults face demands of providing unpaid care to the elderly with potential implications for their wellbeing. Such effects likely vary across Europe because care is differently organized with more or less public support, dependence on family, and orientation toward gender equality. We studied the relationship between unpaid caregiving to elderly parents and psychological wellbeing of older working-age (50-64) men and women in a pan-European context analysing data from the Survey of Health, Retirement, and Ageing in Europe (SHARE), covering 18 countries between 2004 and 2020 (N=24,338) and estimating ordinary least squares and fixed effects models. We examined depression and quality of life by caregiving intensity and tested whether coresidence mediated outcomes. Women and men who provide care to parents experience important psychological well-being losses across Europe, especially when caregiving is intensive. A heavier caregiving burden associated with coresidence explains a regime gradient in depression, not least for women in Southern Europe. Outcomes depend on context rather than objective burden of care because even women in the Nordic countries experience increased risk of depression associated with caregiving. Results highlight spillover costs of unpaid caregiving across Europe and the need to address caregiver psychological well-being, especially in contexts where state support for elderly care is low and coresidence is common.

Caregiving time costs and trade-offs: Gender differences in Sweden, the UK, and Canada
- 2019

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Population ageing is putting pressure on pension systems and health care services, creating an imperative to extend working lives. At the same time, policy makers throughout Europe and North America emphasize home care. Thus, the number of people combining caregiving responsibilities with paid work is growing. We investigate the conflicts that arise from this by exploring the time costs of unpaid care and how caregiving time is traded off against time in paid work and leisure in three distinct policy contexts. We analyze how these tradeoffs differ for men and women (age 50–74), using time diary data from Sweden, the UK and Canada from 2000 to 2015. Results show that women provide more unpaid care in each country, but the impact of unpaid care on labor supply is similar for male and female caregivers. Caregivers in the UK and Canada, particularly those involved in intensive caregiving, reduce paid work in order to provide unpaid care. Caregivers in Sweden do not trade off time in paid work with time in caregiving, but have less leisure time. Our findings support the idea that the more extensive social infrastructure for caring in Sweden may diminish the labor market effects of unpaid care, but highlight that throughout contexts, intensive caregivers make important labor and leisure tradeoffs. Respite care, and financial support policies are important for caregivers who are decreasing labor and leisure time to provide unpaid care.

Risk Preferences and Gender Differences in Union Membership in Late Nineteenth-Century Swedish Manufacturing

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Women are generally seen as less inclined to join trade unions. This study matches firm–worker data from the Swedish cigar and printing industries around 1900 and examines information on men and women holding the same jobs; such data are rare but important for understanding gender gaps. The results explain the gender gap in union membership among compositors, but not among cigar workers. Differences in union membership varied considerably across firms, with the largest differences found in low-union-density cigar firms where indirect costs (that is, uncertainty and risk) accrued in particular to women workers. The lack of gender differences in mutual aid membership indicates that women were not hard to organize but avoided organizations associated with greater risk for employer retaliation and uncertain returns according to a cost–benefit analysis.
