Sex på rätt sätt : Unga, sexualitet och svensk samtida sexualsyn
- 2023
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Swedish sexuality education, mandatory since 1955, is part of general social politics, aiming among others to prevent socio-sexual problems through educating and disciplining young, future citizens. The overall aim is to examine contemporary societal view on sexuality through studies of representatives of schools, authorities and NGO’s negotiating young people's sexuality regulations related to current ideas of socio-sexual problems, and to outline constructions of young people's sexuality through the organisation of sex education. Two studies with ten years in between highlight the contemporary view on youth and sexuality through an analysis of 1) professional views on sexuality education and 2) analysis of documents regarding the new Swedish curriculum, in force since autumn semester 2022. The first study contains of focus group interviews with staff working with young people with intellectual disabilities, previously published 2014, using Theory of Social Representations. The second, newer study, using Critical Discourse Analysis as method and Rubin´s radical theories on sexuality politics as theory, analyses views on sexuality in open access published preparatory works regarding the new curriculum. Young people's sexuality is related to risks, while the idea of pleasure is absent. Young women, young LGBTQ people, and young with intellectual disabilities are made vulnerable and norm breaking, while young men´s sexuality, heterosexuality and able-bodiedness are a not scrutinised norm. Sex education is defined by professionals and experts on elite level, not necessarily linked to scientific knowledge. Equality, pornography, and consent appear as questions that engage. Equality is related to a binary understanding of gender, or a freer view on gender as a prerequisite for equality work to succeed. Pornography is understood as a problem in young men, affecting young women and promoting violence and negative attitudes. Consent is welcomed, but with lacking analyses of how to communicate it.

Child poverty in rich contexts : The example of Sweden
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Global Studies of Childhood. - : Symposium Journals. - 2043-6106. ; 10:2, s. 95-105
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In international comparisons, Sweden is one of the countries with the lowest number of children growing up in poverty; its material standard is high, and welfare services are extensive and heavily subsidised. How child poverty can be understood in that context is interrogated in the article. The point of departure for the discussion is Swedish Save the Children’s 2013 anti-poverty campaign Fattigskolan [Poverty School]. The campaign presents child poverty from the vantage point of a welfare state and is informative for understanding normative discourses on childhood. Childhood is investigated as a social imagination that both structures children’s and parents’ everyday lives and organises society. It is argued that the dominant social imagination is based on a middle-class fantasy permeating the organisation of the welfare state. The elements of this fantasy are critical to understanding child poverty.

Men for Gender Equality : promising projects for preventing men’s violence against women
- 2016
-
Ingår i: Preventie van intergenerationeel geweld in Nederland en EU. - : Atria & Verwey-Jonker Instituut. ; , s. 51-63
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Män för jämställdhet (eng: Men for Gender Equality - MfGE) is a non-government Swedish organisation with a vision for “a gender equal society without violence”. Critical gender theory serves as the platform for the organisation and its projects. Two of MfGE’s projects: Jämt föräldraskap (eng: Equal Parenthood - EP) and Frihet från våld (eng: Freedom From Violence - FFV) are particularly good examples of how MfGE is working to prevent men’s violence against women. EP promotes equal parenting by developing and offering activities directed at new and expectant parents, with special focus on fathers. Half of their activities are directed at local parental and father groups across the country. FFV offers early violence prevention aimed at children and young people in order to limit the incidence and consequences of violence in young people’s intimate relationships by adopting methods that highlight the importance of bystanders. This programme is an adaptation of the American Mentors in Violence Prevention (MVP). Although the programmes in their Swedish versions need further evaluation to establish their evidence base, their firm correspondence to what the literature identifies as important aspects for succeeding in preventing men’s violence qualifies them as promising projects.

Utvärdering av Mentorer i våldsprevention : Slutrapport
- 2018
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Rapporten presenterar resultaten från en utvärdering av det våldsförebyggande programmet Mentorer i våldsprevention (MVP). Programmet Mentors in Violence Prevention kommer från USA och är ett utbildningsprogram som syftar till att förebygga killars och mäns våld. Organisationen Män för Jämställdhet har översatt programmet från engelska, anpassat det till svenska förhållanden och under perioden 2015-2017 spridit MVP i ett antal skolor i Sverige inom ramen för projektet ”En kommun fri från våld”. Det är den version av MVP som Män för Jämställdhet utvecklat och sprider som den här utvärderingen berör. Utvärderingen har genomförts på uppdrag av Skolverket.

Etiska reflektioner i forskning med barn
- 2017
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Forskning om och med barn kräver noggranna etiska överväganden. Den här boken handlar om några av dessa överväganden och här fördjupas diskussionen om barn och unga som forskningsdeltagare. Boken omfattar både forskningsetik i bemärkelsen reflektion över hur forskning tar hänsyn till och skyddar deltagarna, och forskaretik i bemärkelsen forskarens reflektion över sin relation till själva forskningsuppgiften.Med hjälp av konkreta exempel, från både författarnas och andras forskning, identifieras och förklaras etiska frågor som är av särskild betydelse när barn deltar i forskning. Boken tar sin utgångspunkt i den nya barnforskningen, även kallad barndomssociologi, och handlar mer om att forska med barn än att forska om barn. Därtill riktas ett särskilt fokus mot barn i utsatta situationer.Etiska reflektioner i forskning med barn är tänkt att utgöra ett underlag för reflektion och diskussion om etiska frågor i forskning där barn deltar. Författarna belyser frågor som uppstår då etiska aspekter måste vägas mot aspekter som påverkar studiens kvalitet. Därmed är den en praktisk hjälp vid förberedelsen av forskningsprojekt där barn eller unga planeras delta. Tyngdpunkten ligger på kvalitativa intervjuer, men exempel från enkätstudier ges också och i många avseenden är resonemangen i boken tillämpliga för många typer av datainsamlingsmetoder.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- During recent decades, evidence-based treatment programs havebecome a given part of the youth justice system. Typically, such programs areevaluated through quantitative effect studies, in which a variety of outcomemeasures play a significant role. This case study offers an alternative, interactionalevaluation of a treatment program. More specifically, the analysis focuses on anAggression Replacement Training (ART) session that was held at a youth detentionhome in Sweden. In this session, two trainers and three detained adolescent boysperform an exercise that serves to teach the latter various apology practices. Adetailed, conversation analytic examination of the interaction in the session showsthat the trainers repeatedly problematize the boys’ contributions in a kind ofdeviant-making enterprise. Thus, rather than recognizing competencies that dobecome visible through closer inspection, the trainers one-sidedly highlight lackand deficiency. It is argued that the interpretative frame of ART, with its focus onpathologization, individualization, and responsibilization, amplifies the incarceratedboys’ deviancy, hence symbolically locking them up in a second, nonmaterialor discursive, sense.

Victimization, Positioning, and Support : Young Victims' Experiences of Crime
- 2020
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Victimization early in life can result in a number of different short and long-term consequences, for which young people might need help and support. However, from previous research it is unclear what kind of support young people perceive as supportive. The present dissertation therefore aims to theoretically and empirically investigate young people’s experiences of victimization and support. The aim is operationalized in three questions: (1) To what extent do young people with experiences of various types of victimization seek and receive support, both from professionals and from family and friends? (2) How do young people understand and construct themselves as victims? (3) How is support constructed, and which needs for support do young people perceive themselves as having after their victimization? The dissertation uses a mixed methods approach building on a quantitative dataset consisting of a survey with 2500 participants, and a qualitative dataset consisting of 19 narrative interviews with young victims of crime. The results show that few young victims seek and receive professional psychosocial support, while a greater percentage of them receive support from family and friends. Theoretically, this can be understood through how young victims construct their own victimhood, which affects what kind of support they received and perceived as supportive. Each individual describes what he or she perceived as supportive with regard to the victimization, which included firstly information and practical help, and secondly talking about the victimizing event. Information enabled the young victims to participate in the judicial and support process more on their own conditions, as they understood what was going to happen. Because of this, support as a concept needs to include various types of support adapted to the individual’s specific needs and circumstances. This means that specific types of support need to be constructed by the support provider together with the individual victim. This calls for a collaborative practice when supporting young victims of crime and for the support to be as individualized as possible.

Young victims’ positioning : Narrations of victimhood and support
- 2020
-
Ingår i: International Review of Victimology. - : Sage Publications. - 0269-7580 .- 2047-9433. ; 26:2, s. 196-211
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The present study aims to analyze how young people narratively negotiate their position as victims, how their social surroundings react to their victim positioning and what types of support they are offered. It is argued that those who position themselves as innocent victims receive support, while those who do not position themselves as such are left to fend for themselves. It is concluded that receiving support functions as a way for young victims to keep intact their narratives of who they are; while young people who did not receive support and acceptance for their positioning needed to re-negotiate their narrative to make sense of who they are after the victimization. Thereby, the victimizing event was incorporated into their narrative identity.
