Valuing nature's contributions to people : the IPBES approach
- 2017

Ingår i: Current Opinion in Environmental Sustainability. - : Elsevier BV. - 1877-3435. ; 26-27, s. 7-16

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Nature is perceived and valued in starkly different and often conflicting ways. This paper presents the rationale for the inclusive valuation of nature's contributions to people (NCP) in decision making, as well as broad methodological steps for doing so. While developed within the context of the Intergovernmental Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES), this approach is more widely applicable to initiatives at the knowledge–policy interface, which require a pluralistic approach to recognizing the diversity of values. We argue that transformative practices aiming at sustainable futures would benefit from embracing such diversity, which require recognizing and addressing power relationships across stakeholder groups that hold different values on human nature-relations and NCP.

The relevance of environmental conflict research for coastal management. A review of concepts, approaches and methods with a focus on Europe
- 2013
-
Ingår i: Ocean and Coastal Management. - : Elsevier BV. - 0964-5691. ; 75, s. 20-32
-
Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Analysis and resolution of coastal resource use conflicts have largely been neglected in coastal research, environmental policies and resource management strategies such as Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM). We review theoretical approaches and empirical studies from European countries about environmental and natural resource use conflicts with the aim to clarify the requirements for developing interdisciplinary coastal conflict research as a component of sustainable coastal management. Issues of terminology, conceptual and methodological differences and requirements for analysing and solving resource use and management conflicts are addressed. Thereafter, possibilities of consolidation of the research field and the perspectives of future coastal conflict research are discussed – along with comparative studies of conflicts, conflict management, and integration of the knowledge of resource users. We conclude that the reviewed conflict concepts, typologies and approaches can be integrated and thus help to improve context-specific analysis of multi-scale coastal conflicts. Such conflicts are part of sustainable resource management that needs to deal with consequences of global environmental change, especially the rise in sea levels in coastal areas.

Agency, directionality, location and the geographic situatedness of knowledge making: The politics of framing in innovation research on energy
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Environmental Innovation and Societal Transitions. - 2210-4224 .- 2210-4232. ; 49
-
Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this conceptual review, we use the concept of “framing” to explore how scholars work with innovation. Using a thematically and geographically diverse sample of 88 articles, we focus on sustainability transitions as research domain, energy as sector and literature review as method. Framings of innovation differ by themes such as agency, directionality and location, as well as onto-epistemological categories such as envisioned academic contribution and geographic situatedness of knowledge making. The implications of some framings are concerning, such as that econometric analysis of firm-level innovation in higher income countries can proxy for innovation globally, or that donors are the principal stimuli of innovation in lower income countries. This research shows how groups, places or outcomes are included or excluded in different domains of innovation research. We propose a heuristic tool which seeks to render explicit the boundaries for innovation drawn in any article, to aid reflexivity and epistemic humility.

Lucia möter Pajazzo : Kvinnorollen och mansrollen i opera då och nu- redovisning av ett Konstnärligt utvecklingsprojekt
- 2010
-
Ingår i: Föreställningar Högskolan för scen och musik 2010 12-14. ; Artisten oktober 2010
-
Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- För att ligga i framkant vid operautbildningen på Högskolan för scen och musik (HSM) behöver vi kontinuerligt komplettera synen på vår musikdramatiska interpretationsmetod och lösa upp genrehierarkier, inte minst för att kunna möta och vinna den nya generationens publik, ”de icke redan frälsta”. Ovanstående KU-projekt Lucia möter Pajazzo är en fristående fortsättning på de två konstnärliga KU-projekten En kvinnas många röster, 2008 samt En kvinnas möten, 2009. Dessa tre KU-projekt har med progression och fördjupning behandlat specifika frågeställningar i utvalda operascener med syfte att: -utveckla en genreöverskridande/genrelös sångteknik för att främja ett fungerande musikdramatiskt skådespeleri med texten i fokus -belysa könsmaktsordningen samt kvinnorollens och mansrollens försvar av det egna perspektivet samt problematisera offer- och förövarrollen

Physical work load and pregnancy outcome
- 1995
-
Ingår i: Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. - 1076-2752. ; 37:8, s. 941-4
-
Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Pronounced physical exertion may influence intraabdominal pressure and uterine blood flow, hormonal balance, and nutritional status, all of which are important determinants of embryonic and fetal development and survival. Most of the epidemiologic evidence of reproductive effects from occupational physical activity concerns gestational age/premature birth, birth weight/intrauterine growth retardation, and spontaneous abortion. Strenuous work, especially when involving long hours of standing and walking, seems to increase the risk of preterm delivery. The effect on intrauterine growth and spontaneous abortion risk is less clear. As a single factor, heavy lifting has in most circumstances not been associated with a significantly increased risk of these outcomes. In general, heavy work duties should be avoided, and enough rest periods assured, especially in late pregnancy.

Reproductive effects of chemical exposures in health professions
- 1995
-
Ingår i: Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. - 1076-2752. ; 37:8, s. 957-61
-
Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Numerous chemical substances are handled by persons working in the health care sector. At exposure levels that may occur in the occupational setting, some of these substances are potentially harmful to the reproductive processes. Among the potentially harmful substances are anesthetic gases, antineoplastic agents, and sterilants. The epidemiological evidence of increased risks for adverse reproductive effects (eg, subfertility, spontaneous abortions, congenital defects) from such exposure is not unequivocal. However, due to the toxic potential, exposures should be kept at a minimum, and this may be especially important for workers who are pregnant or are planning to achieve pregnancy.
