Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Since the turn of the millennium, Sweden has, like many other countries, become more neoliberal in many areas, including that of sport. The government has increased its expectations on the sports movement and become more result-oriented, which, for example, its revised motives for supporting the sports movement and the establishment of an audit organization can illustrate. However, in contrast to other countries, the Swedish government has not introduced any financial cutbacks in its support for sports. Rather, the opposite is true. The financial support has increased significantly over the last two decades. In the paper, we argue that this contradictory development of Swedish sport policy can be understood as expressions of neoliberalism and social entrepreneurship. As a theoretical concept, social entrepreneurship offers a way of understanding the increased Swedish government support for sport. There are in particular two underlying reasons for this claim. Firstly, sport is considered as a solution to various societal problems, such as social exclusion and refugee crises. Secondly, much of the increased support has been in form of various large-scale, earmarked, and time-limited political initiatives/reforms and project grants, which all have aimed to achieve social change through sport, such as social inclusion. In the paper, we consider these initiatives as expressions of social entrepreneurship. This paper contributes to the ongoing scholarly debate on how neoliberalism and neoliberal policies in the public sector have affected sport organizations. Also, by using social entrepreneurship theory, we provide new theoretical insights into how sport policy can be understood and analyzed.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Voluntarily organized sport is the cornerstone of Swedish sports and has an important societal role. In this chapter, the Regional Sports Confederation and Sports Education Skåne, which is the gathering body of the non-profit sport clubs in the region, represents the voluntary, non-profit sector. The Leisure Department, City of Malmö, represents the public sector. The football club Malmö FF represents the for-profit sector, despite not being a completely commercial club. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and analysis of documents.The three sectors have overlapping interests and a lot to gain from extended cooperation and knowledge transfer to bring about change. All our informants state a clear awareness of the importance of sustainability and highlight sustainable development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) at the leading level of their organizations. However, their capacity and incentives to act differ, partly due to each sectors’ specific logics. Malmö FF, strongly affected by commercial logics, stands out as the organization most active in realizing the SDGs. The Leisure Department, limited by political requirements, works hard to handle basic political requirements with an ambition to do good and even be a role model among municipalities. For the sports movement, the possibility of collective actions is challenged by voluntarism and the strong autonomy of sports clubs. Perhaps it would be logical to argue for a stricter control of the sports clubs’ operations to ensure proper handling of sustainability issues, but according to the Swedish sport ideology, the incentives should rather be created from the bottom-up.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- School grades are among the most common measurements used to analyze equality of outcome in education. Large or increasing ‘gaps’ in school grades between boys and girls and between students with different migration background are considered strong indicators of inequality. Based on students’ school grades, several studies have shown that equality in Swedish schools has decreased during the last two decades. Although equality has been described as one of the most important goals in physical education (PE), studies that focus on equality of outcome are lacking. Moreover, there have been no studies that focus on equality of outcome since the 2011 implementation of a new school grading system in Sweden. Therefore, the aim of this study is to contribute with new knowledge on equality in PE in Sweden – in regard to gender and migration background. The study is based on register data for all students enrolled in Swedish schools during the years 2012–2016 from Grades 6 and 9 and Year 1 in upper secondary school N = 1,294,990). Based on a cross-sectional approach, analyses were conducted to explore general trends in students’ school grades in PE in the study period 2012–2016, and to calculate the percentage difference in PE grades between students with a Swedish background and both students with a foreign background and foreign-born students. After controlling for grade inflation, regression analyses with Wald tests were used to analyze how gender has moderated the relationship between migration background and school grades in PE in Sweden between 2012 and 2016. The results from this study suggest that (a) the intersection of gender and migration background is related to unequal school grades in PE, (b) there are gender equality issues in relation to students’ school grades in PE and, (c) the most prominent equality issues concern the group foreign-born girls.

Gender Differences and Inequality? A 20-Year Retrospective Analysis Based on 39,980 Students' Perceptions of Physical Education in Sweden

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Purpose: The aim of this study was to critically examine previous studies' claims about the magnitude of gender differences and gender inequality in physical education (PE) in Sweden. Method: The data were based on students' (N = 39,980) perceptions of PE and were gathered from four large research projects in Sweden. Three effect size measures (Cramer's V, r squared, and Cohen's d) were calculated for gender differences. Results: In general, there are small gender differences; and after controlling for students' grade, "sports capital," and parents' "educational capital," the differences are practically irrelevant. Conclusion: This study provides compelling evidence that there are small, or even irrelevant, gender differences in students' perceptions of PE in Sweden. Moreover, given that previous research asserts that large gender differences can be used as an indicator of inequality, this study suggests that gender inequality issues related to students' perceptions of PE are relatively small.

Växa tryggt : Slutrapport från Malmö universitets forskargrupp
- 2023
-
Rapport (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Under åren 2019–2022 genomfördes en satsning på ett utökat hembesöks-program för förstagångsföräldrar inom barnhälsovården i Skåne. Satsningen hade namnet Växa tryggt och baserades på erfarenheter av ett liknande program i Rinkeby. I Växa tryggt erbjöds förstagångsföräldrar sammanlagt sex hembesök under barnets första 15 månader. Besöken genomfördes i ett sam-arbete mellan barnmorskor, barnhälsovårdssjuksköterskor, föräldrastödjare och tandsköterskor/tandhygienister.En tvärvetenskaplig forskargrupp från Malmö universitet har på uppdrag av Region Skåne forskat om Växa tryggts genomförande och effekter. Forsk-ningen har inkluderat intervjuer och enkäter riktade till deltagande familjer, de professioner som genomförde hembesöken, verksamhetschefer och politiska beslutsfattare.I denna rapport redovisas forskargruppens övergripande resultat. Resultaten visar genomgående att både professioner och deltagande familjer var mycket nöjda med de utökade hembesöken. För professionerna, främst familjestöd-jaren och tandsköterskan/tandhygienisten, har Växa tryggt inneburit möj-ligheter att tidigt komma i kontakt med barnfamiljer i upptagningsområdet. Utöver stöd och support i enskilda frågor har professionerna även kunnat informera om ytterligare stöd som barnhälsovården, socialtjänsten och tand-vården kan erbjuda. För familjerna har de utökade hembesöken varit ett stöd i den intiala osäkerhet som ofta präglar ett nyblivet föräldraskap. Samtidigt har Växa tryggt främjat möjligheten att bygga tillitsfulla relationer med välfärds-professioner som utifrån sina skilda kompetenser är experter på barn- och familjeliv. Hemmet har i det föreliggande projektet visat sig vara en bra arena för att kunna individanpassa råd och stöd. Ytterligare en positiv effekt av Växa tryggt har varit att fera professioner samverkat i hembesöken och därmed kunnat komplettera och stärka varandra i dialoger med familjerna.
