Administration i offentlig sektor. Om expansion, elevering och mittokrati.
- 2024
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Administrationen växer i våra offentliga verksamheter. Alltmer resurser samlas ovanför kärnverksamheten, men också nedanför ledningen. Det som växer fram är en ny organisationsform, mittokratin, en organisation som domineras av sin mellersta del, administrationen. Varför sker denna utveckling och vad får det för konsekvenser? För att förstå varför måste vi förstå vilka drivkrafter som ligger bakom. Den här boken identifierar och synliggör en konkret och viktig utmaning för organisatörer av offentlig sektor.

First teachers – stratification in Swedish schools
- 2017
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This article is about professions in transformation and the empirical case is the teaching profession. More specifically, it is about an attempt to strengthen the profession by introducing a new career step, first teachers (FTs). The aim of the study is to scrutinize what first teachers do and how they establish the position in the school system. Four main categories emerged that most actions could be sorted into: coordinating, policy formulating, knowledge generating and instructing. Most of the activities might be related to the collegial level. We use the term appropriation to capture the fact that the FTs both took over existing and novel tasks. The introduction of first teachers has led to a restratification process which in turn has helped strengthen the professional autonomy at a collegial level. The empirical investigation was carried out in a qualitative longitudinal study.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study examines a recent reform in the Swedish teaching profession—the so-called first teacher reform, aimed at increasing teacher professionalism and the status of teachers. The reform created a situation by which a new role had to be created and inhabited by first teachers, appointed on what were considered arbitrary criteria. There were few existing norms, rules, and routines to draw upon for the newly appointed first teachers. The empirical focus of this study, based upon interviews and observations from seven schools in four Swedish municipalities, is how the newly appointed first teachers shape their role in relation to other teachers and to school management. We contribute to inhabited institutions theory by showing how processes of institutional change rely on externalization by relational work, through which the new role gains legitimacy and mutual recognition, and on objectification by jurisdictional work, through which the new role becomes taken for granted in a new division of labour. We thus argue that changes in the material basis of work processes are key to understanding processes of institutional inhabitation. Moreover, we show how changes in intra-professional jurisdictions can lead to upgrading, rather than degradation, of professional work.

Organizing Professionalism – New Elites, Stratification and Division of Labor

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The case in this study is the introduction of a new more prominent position for teachers. The aim is to contribute to the literature on stratification and organizing of professions. This is done by addressing the question how division of labor is affected by enhanced organization of a profession? The paper illustrates how stratification took place and a new division of labor emerged. Not much conflict was observed regarding the new division of labor and it is proposed that this is because the new division of labor did not challenge the dominance over the core domain of teachers or of principals. The increase in organization did not lead to an increase in control of the profession but an increase in control by the profession. In addition, stratification in fact led to a de-hybridization of the roles of teachers and principals.

To strengthen or to shatter? On the effects of stratification on professions as systems

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of this article is to contribute to the literature on how stratification affects professions. Our case is the first teacher reform in Sweden, which introduced a more prominent position for some teachers. In this article, we elaborate six different first teacher types and analyze how these affect the profession. While elites are generally described as hybrids, we conclude that several of our types rather led to a de‐hybridization of roles, where managers became more administratively focused, and elites more anchored to professional tasks. We conclude that elite roles expose various potentials in being strengthening/weakening or shattering/integrating to the profession, but, in contrast to other studies on professional elites, the majority of roles studied here are both strengthening and integrating to the profession. The study is qualitative and based on 111 interviews, 12weeks of shadowing and 53 observed meetings.

Styrning av hälso- och sjukvård
- 2021. - Andra upplagan
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Hälso- och sjukvården står i dag inför en rad ekonomiska, demografiska och medicinska utmaningar. Hur den ska styras och organiseras blir därför en angelägen fråga. Den här boken, som nu kommer i sin andra upplaga, beskriver några av de styrmodeller som har tillämpats inom vården under de senaste decennierna. Hit hör exempelvis beställarstyrning, kundvalsmodellen, balanserad styrning, teamarbete, prestationsfinansering och processorientering. Författarna lyfter fram fördelar och nackdelar med de olika modellerna och visar vad de tenderar att leda till på kort respektive lång sikt.
