A Cry for Care But not Justice : Embodied Vulnerabilities and the Moral Economy of Child Welfare

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study explores the pivotal role of the body for political recognition and rights claims in child welfare "moral" interventions. I examine how the bodily figures in child welfare assessments, linking these manifestations to the concept of the moral economy of care. A sample of assessment reports from a Swedish municipality, all addressing violations of children's bodies or integrity, are used as empirical material. I show how the psychosomatically suffering child is being best "heard" as vulnerable. I also argue that such a moral economy of care silences children's accounts of gendered and racial injustices. Furthermore, racialized moral divides are indicated when assessments of different child bodies are considered. A concluding remark points to need for a child welfare moral economy of social justice that responds to structural intersecting injustices in childhoods, including to those of a racialized child welfare and its individualized and symptom-oriented services.

Bortom biovälfärden : Intersektionella orättvisor i barndomar och den sociala barnavården
- 2022
-
Konferensbidrag (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Presentationen utgår från den delen av min doktorsavhandling och senare vidareutvecklingar som kretsar kring den sociala barnavårdens praktik; mer specifikt barnavårdsutredningar (barn upp till 12 år) och eventuella rekommenderade åtgärder som respons på intersektionella orättvisor i barndomar. Jag belyser förändringsbehov och möjligheter till ett socialt arbete där rättighets- och rättviseperspektiv hamnar i förgrunden - bortom biovälfärdens dilemman.Ett av biovälfärdens dilemman är att säkerställa att barndomar är fria från våld samtidigt som våldets och orättvisornas symptom är i blickpunkten, inte problemet och orättvisorna i sig. Fokus på långtgående risker och psykosomatiska konsekvenser synliggör inte bara vissa våldssituationer och våldsformer framför andra. Det förstärker även professionellas och forskningens betydelse i utredningar. Dock medför detta också en objektifiering av barnkroppar varför barns delaktighet som rättighetsbärande subjekt med röst blir svårt att leva upp till. Vidare diskuteras avsaknaden av respons på orättvisor i form av rasism och våld utanför hemmet samt åtgärdernas begränsningar i relation till skydd. En slutsats som dras är att skydd på inget enkelt sätt kan likställas med insatser annat än när det rör sig om tvångsåtgärder. Möjligheterna är många till en bättre hantering av problem genom förändrade lösningar. Jag diskuterar behovet av att utforma nya insatser som är frivilliga och skyddande samt vikten av att stärka unga människors delaktighet såväl i insatsutformningen som vid rekommendation av insatser. Det räcker dock inte att enbart identifiera nya insatsbehov så länge insatser förutsätter vuxnas samtycke. Förändringsbehov avseende dessa villkor behöver därför ses över.

Young and Vaccinated? : Children and Young People’s Perspectives on Covid-19 Vaccinations
- 2022
-
Konferensbidrag (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- The research project is inspired by an ongoing study showing that although children and young people are central subjects to the debates on vaccine-preventable diseases, and constitute the main target of vaccines, young people are largely absent in public debates and research about vaccination-related attitudes and decision-making processes. In the pre-pandemic time, vaccination attitudes were commonly discussed in relation to parents’ views and decision-making processes concerning preventable “child diseases”. Despite the fact that the focus has been on parents, children have been central to arguments and practices, as both positive and negative attitudes toward immunizations may be expressed as care for children. The perspectives of children and young people themselves, particularly in relation to covid-19 vaccinations, are largely unexplored. In this research project, interviews will be conducted with children and young people, from the age of 12, about their views, decision-making processes and resistances in the context of covid-19 vaccinations. Focusing particularly on children and young people in Sweden whose views differ from the views of parents, health professionals or other adults, this project aims to foreground resistances in childhoods and youth in general and expand the notion of resistance in vaccination contexts in particular. Experiences from different Swedish Regional Councils and diverse procedures concerning assessments of age and maturity will be included in order to explore how young people navigate in terrains that requires adult consent and how these procedures enable but also constrain children and young people’s vaccination-related decision-making.

Understanding hallmark event failure : A case study of a Swedish music festival
- 2017

Ingår i: International Journal of Event and Festival Management. - 1758-2954 .- 1758-2962. ; 8:2, s. 172-185

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- PurposeHallmark events can be very beneficial for host communities, not least due to their potential in attracting tourists. The Peace & Love music festival was the hallmark event of the Swedish city Borlänge. In 2013, the event organization declared bankruptcy and canceled the forthcoming festival. The purpose of this paper is to identify and discuss the factors that caused the failure of the 2013 Peace & Love festival.Design/methodology/approachThe case of the Peace & Love festival is analyzed using three data sources: interviews with the former members of the event organization; secondary data describing the Swedish festival industry; and festival visitors’ perspectives represented by comments on social media. An organizational ecology perspective frames the analysis.FindingsThe results of the study reveal that the failure of the event can be understood by a combination of three components: an organization in a vulnerable position, a strong new competitor entering the Swedish festival market, and uncertain visitors searching for the new place to be.Originality/valueVery few studies have researched event failure, although the subject is a recommended priority within the field of festival studies. This study presents a thorough examination of a hallmark event failure, which contributes to this area of knowledge and provides relevant information for organizations and host cities.

Exploring the nexus between sustainable tourism governance, resilience and complexity research
- 2023

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Governance and complexity have increasingly become subjects of interest within research on sustainable tourism. Governance has been marked by a turn to more corporatist and networked policymaking structures. At the same time, the use of the concept of complexity in research on tourism destinations and governance is gaining momentum in an effort to address the links in increasingly networked systems as well as the interrelatedness of the multiple features of a tourist destination. Meanwhile, resilience has emerged as a new buzzword in research on sustainable development and governance which denotes the ability of a destination to cope with and adapt to change. This article reviews the literature on destination governance to identify critical issues and trends and discusses the relevance of complexity approaches. Evolutionary studies and research on resilience in a sustainability context are becoming part of this discussion. The review sheds light on the limitations and merits of each of these concepts, as well as on their nexus. The article concludes with some key areas for future research on destination governance. The aim of the review is to contribute to conceptual clarity and to advance the application of complexity approaches in research on destination governance.

One foot wet and one foot dry : transition into motherhood among married adolescent women in rural Vietnam
- 2008
-
Ingår i: Journal of Transcultural Nursing. - : Sage Publications. - 1043-6596 .- 1552-7832. ; 19:4, s. 338-346

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study explores married Vietnamese adolescents' perceptions and experiences related to transition into motherhood and their encounter with health care service. In-depth interviews were conducted with 22 women younger than 20 who were either pregnant or had newly delivered. It emerged from the narratives that young women experienced ambivalence in the transition to motherhood in that they felt too young but also happy to be able to please their husband and the extended family. Patterns were shown indicating that the participants experienced lacking power with regard to decisions in relation to pregnancy, delivery, and contraceptive usage. Feelings of being patronized and ignored in the encounter with health care providers were seen in the narratives. Findings might be used for reproductive health care providers, social workers, and educators in their contact with young mothers to empower them to make their own decisions with regard to marriage, childbearing, and contraception.

Speaking Bodies – Silenced Voices : Child Protection and the Knowledge Culture of ‘Evidencing’
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Global Studies of Childhood. - : Sage Publications. - 2043-6106. ; 11:3, s. 252-264
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Using the metaphors body and voice and drawing on critical contributions on biopolitics, this article interrogates children’s participation rights in a knowledge culture of ‘evidencing’. With child welfare and protection practice as an empirical example, I analyse written assessment reports from a Swedish child welfare agency, all exemplifying how social workers evidence needs for protection and reasons for removing children from the home. I discuss how ‘evidencing’ equals a knowledge culture of seeing-believing and predicting-believing and the search for visibly damaged bodies and underdeveloped minds. I furthermore problematise how such conceptualisation of evidencing foregrounds children’s ‘speaking’ bodies while silencing their voices. By showing these manifestations of evidencing, this critical contribution discusses some wider epistemic concerns for fields influenced by the knowledge cultures of ‘the evidence-based’.
