Rasbiologiskt språkbruk i statens rättsprocess mot sameby : DN Debatt 2015-06-11
- 2015
-
Annan publikation (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Statens hantering av forskningsresultat i rättsprocessen med Girjas sameby utgör ett hot mot Sverige som rättsstat och kunskapsnation. Åratal av svensk och internationell forskning underkänns och man använder ett språkbruk som skulle kunna vara hämtat från rasbiologins tid. Nu måste staten ta sitt ansvar och börja agera som en demokratisk rättsstat, skriver 59 forskare.

Att göra det materiella virtuellt : Subjektifiering, moral och motstånd i konstruktionen av den riskfyllda mathållningen
- 2020
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Den här avhandlingen syftar till att bidra till förståelsen av hur risk konstrueras och förändras i diskussioner om mathållning på nätforum och vilka subjektspositioner som görs möjliga då risk uttrycks i relation till klass och kön. Mat har kommit att få stor uppmärksamhet i samhällsdiskussionen, men i det moderna samhället är det inte bristen på mat som står i fokus, utan snarare de val människor måste göra relaterade till mat. Vad vi äter har kommit att bli en signal om vem vi är och vem vi vill vara, men diskussioner kring mat handlar också om vad som betraktas som riskfyllt eller inte. Därtill har mat länge använts för att göra distinktioner mellan människor baserat på maktstrukturer som klass och kön. Avhandlingen är inspirerad av en feministisk poststrukturalistisk ansats vilken används för att undersöka hur maktrelationer och subjektifieringsprocesser uttrycks i konversationer på nätbaserade diskussionsforum.Genom att ta avstamp i den kritiska riskforskningen samt i genusvetenskaplig forskning visar avhandlingen hur risk konstrueras genom riskperformativ. Riskperformativ, uttryckta i det virtuella rummet, medför att olika ”sanningar” konstrueras runt mathållningar vilket får konsekvenser får vilka subjektspositioner som möjliggörs. Genom riskperformativen konstruerats olika förväntningar om vad som kan och bör sägas för att konstituera sig som ett ansvarsfullt och moraliskt subjekt. Därigenom görs olika riskpositioner, det vill säga klass- och könskodade subjektspositioner som konstitueras i relation till riskkonstruktioner, tillgängliga. Analysen visar också hur utrymme för betydelseförskjutningar och motstånd mot riskkonstruktioner skapas i diskussionerna, vilket sker genom dels bekännelsen som teknik och dels genom en teknik som här kallas en responsibiliserad paternalism varigenom det individualiserade ansvaret för upprätthållandet av självreglering inför risk uttrycks i samverkan med kollektivt upprätthållna klass- och könsnormer. I avhandlingen analyseras därigenom hur kön och klass görs i samverkan med riskkonstruktioner på sätt där dessa förstärker varandra.

Digital society generates new challenges on Child Welfare Services
- 2017

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Digital society has created a new situation that challenges the present discourse on public services. Since it is only a recent phenomenon, digital society has not yet been in-cluded in the broader filed of social work education and practice. In the present text, we focus on casework with children. The examples described in the text are taken from Scandinavian experiences and reflect our background and practice in social work with children. However, we dare to say that the situation is more or less the same in the rest of Europe, as illustrated by the presented social work examples and references from wider European context.

Perspectives on the COVID-19 Vaccination Rollout in 17 Countries : Reflexive Thematic and Frequency Analysis Based on the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats (SWOT) Framework
- 2024
-
Ingår i: JMIR Human Factors. - : JMIR Publications. - 2292-9495. ; 11
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: As the SARS-CoV-2 virus created a global pandemic and rapidly became an imminent threat to the health and lives of people worldwide, the need for a vaccine and its quick distribution among the population was evident. Due to the urgency, and on the back of international collaboration, vaccines were developed rapidly. However, vaccination rollouts showed different success rates in different countries and some also led to increased vaccine hesitancy. Objective: The aim of this study was to identify the role of information sharing and context sensitivity in various vaccination programs throughout the initial COVID-19 vaccination rollout in different countries. Moreover, we aimed to identify factors in national vaccination programs related to COVID-19 vaccine hesitancy, safety, and effectiveness. Toward this end, multidisciplinary and multinational opinions from members of the Navigating Knowledge Landscape (NKL) network were analyzed. Methods: From May to July 2021, 25 completed questionnaires from 27 NKL network members were collected. These contributors were from 17 different countries. The responses reflected the contributors' subjective viewpoints on the status and details of the COVID-19 vaccination rollout in their countries. Contributors were asked to identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (ie, SWOT) of the respective vaccination programs. The responses were analyzed using reflexive thematic analysis, followed by frequency analysis of identified themes according to the represented countries. Results: The perspectives of NKL network members showed a link between organizational elements of the vaccination rollout and the accompanying societal response, both of which were related to strengths and weaknesses of the process. External sociocultural variables, improved public communication around vaccination -related issues, ethical controversies, and the spread of disinformation were the dominant themes related to opportunities and challenges. In the SWOT 2x2 matrix, Availability and Barriers emerged as internal categories, whereas Transparent communication and promotion and Societal divide emerged as key external categories. Conclusions: Inventory of themes and categories inspired by elements of the SWOT framework provides an informative multidisciplinary perspective for effective implementation of public health strategies in the battle against COVID-19 or any future pandemics of a similar nature.

The collection of narratives on strategies, ethics and public response of COVID-19 national vaccination process written by members of scholarly association Navigating Knowledge Landscapes Network
- 2022
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The data collected in this dataset are narratives exploring public policies, attitudes, individual behaviors, and the collective experiences of the involved communities regarding vaccination during the COVID-19 pandemic. The narratives were written by the members of the interdisciplinary research network Navigating Knowledge Landscapes (NKL; http://knowledge-landscapes.hiim.hr/). The members of the network are scholars belonging to different research disciplines and the aim of the network is to explore and discuss the individual aspects of citizens’ navigation of (new) knowledge in the digital society. An invitation to participate in this study was sent to members of the network on May 5, 2021. First responses were received on May 13, 2021, while the last response (including updated versions) was received on July 21, 2021. In total, 25 contributions were received from 27 scholars representing 17 countries (some scholars co-authored their contributions). Each of them described strategies, ethics, and public response of COVID-19 national vaccination process in their country.

Att analysera och teoretisera kön och religion : Förslag till nytt religionsbegrepp
- 2009
-
Ingår i: Marburg Journal of Religion. - 1612-2941. ; 14:1, s. 1-17
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- While specialists in gender studies often refer to religion they seldom have recourse to carefullyconceived definitions of it. The problem of definition is explored here in terms of its plurality ofexpressions and interpretation, internal tensions and change, and similarities and relations whichcross traditions which are often perceived as being separate and distinct. Myth and ritual are takento be of central importance, both being understood as gendered and bodily constituted. Theoreticalinspiration is drawn from Wittgenstein's understanding of meaning as being constituted contextuallyand bodily and thus inseparable from social life. In this persepctive, religious language is a more orless precise act whose meaning will differ depending on the context, agents and agendas involved.Specific arguments relating to meaning and action are also drawn from the work of M. Douglas andL. Bäckman, both of whom have deconstructed and discussed (post-)colonial conceptualizations ofculture. Their elaboration of potentiality and change has been of special interest. In sum, religion isregarded as (1)a dynamic and ambiguous field of meanings that is continuously created andconstituted through human interaction (2) always gendered (3)bodily expressed and constituted (4)composed of myth, ritual and time concepts (5) a cource of continuity as well as of change inpresent social interaction (6) transmitted and renewed through mytho-poets, and (7)subject toanalysis in terms of power, with reference to social interaction, socioeconomic conditions and thewider context.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this paper we analyse how the risks associated with research on transgenic plants are regulated in Sweden. The paper outlines the way in which pilot projects in the plant sciences are overseen in Sweden, and discusses the international and national background to the current regulatory system. The historical, and hitherto unexplored, reasons for the evolution of current administrative and legislative procedures in plant science are of particular interest. Specifically, we discuss similarities and differences in the regulation of medicine and plant science, and we examine the tendency towards dichotomizing risk — focusing on social/ethical risks in medicine and biological risks in plant science. The context of this article is the Synpraxia research project, an inter-disciplinary program combining expertise in sciences and the humanities.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The molecular account of the environmental that epigenetics offers bestow it with paramount importance for biomedical perspective of health and disease and for social sciences perspective on human interactions and well-being. It offers new prospects for interventions to shape the health of both individuals and populations, and invokes its own ethical, legal, and social implications. We here propose treatment of the relation between epigenetics and society through the framework of bio-objectification. After discussing how epigenetic information becomes part of particular bio-identification and bio-objectification processes, we then propose the bio-objectification framework as a fruitful conceptual framework for the analysis of dynamic research and responsive regulatory landscape of this biotechnology.

Gene myths in public perception
- 2012
-
Ingår i: Public Understanding of Science. - : SAGE Publications. - 0963-6625 .- 1361-6609. ; 21:4, s. 478-494
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In this article I examine myths in the gene science debate, and their use as a tool in analysis of popular perceptions and public opinion of genetic science and gene technology. In daily language myth means something untrue, though theories of myth present them as carriers of knowledge and truth. I understand myth as a narrative, a cultural construct that aims to describe the world, its origin, and its constituent elements. I compare scholars’ usage of myths, considering their implications. I conclude that i) As an analytical tool the concept of myth is too loosely defined, or understood through theories which leave out context, social relations and interaction. This provides limited insight about myths and myth-making in present day society. ii) An updated understanding of myths, including location/context and interaction/process would enrich analysis.

Knowledge versus Education in the Margins : An Indigenous and Feminist Critique of Education
- 2021
-
Ingår i: Education Sciences. - : MDPI. - 2227-7102. ; 11:10
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article highlights the perceptions and expectations of knowledge that many people, including educators and policy makers, take for granted. Our focus of understanding is Indigenous studies and gender studies. Our aim is to show how modern education undermines these fields of studies. We use an autoethnographic method, reflecting more than 75 years as pupils/students and more than 90 years as educators. We have carefully chosen narratives of exposure to knowledge outside the educational system, as well as narratives of limitations posed upon us by the educational system. This narrative approach makes it possible for us to investigate and discuss our grief about areas of knowledge that society cries for, but the educational system continuously finds ways to resist. Our conclusion is that crucial knowledge is located outside the educational system, where individuals, groups, and communities cherish, protect, and guard knowledge that the educational system marginalises or excludes. As this knowledge is fundamental for life, our message is that the educational system needs to re-evaluate its strategies to stay relevant.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Despite more than 50 years of genetic research on Sámi people in Sweden, there has been very little engagement with the ethical issues related to this research. My aim is to investigate the ethical challenges in biobank research on Sámi people, to identify ethical challenges that have been overlooked and to find ethical solutions. In my historical research inquiry of published material and interviews with people that have participated in this research, my research questions have been: How are blood samples from Sámi people collected, codified, governed and analyzed? What ethical strategies have been utilized? My main findings are: Sweden acquired biobank collections from Sámi people that are not registered or cannot be traced through the biobank register at the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare. These collections entail ethical challenges concerning how the donors are identified, how the material is categorized, the regional ethical committees, governance and Sámi representation. My suggestions focus on transparency and traceability, competence and native peoples' rights and representation in biobank-related activities.

On Teachers’ Education in Sweden, School Curriculums, and the Sámi People
- 2014
-
Ingår i: Re: Mindings. - Uppsala : The Hugo Valentin Centre, Uppsala University. - 9789186531102 ; , s. 153-171
-
Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article discusses the intersection of Teachers’ Education and the Swedish society with regards to Sámi religion, history and culture. It aims at a renewed understanding of present premises for construction of curriculums in courses on Sámi history, culture and religion. An important back drop is the Swedish State’s regulation of Teachers Education, their inclusion of indigenous peoples’ inte- rests, and the general demand for research based and reflexive academic teaching. I argue that Teachers’ Education and Swedish bookstores present research based knowledge on the Sámi People’s religion, history and culture in a weak and accidental manner. For a better understanding, I discuss Anthony Giddens’ description of society as regionalized into “back stage” and “front stage” regions structured by different rules – back stage rules being loosely structured and characterized by feelings, subjectivity and bodily activities, while front stage rules are strictly disciplined, and not characterized by personal feelings or bodily excursion. Universities and Colleges fit front stage characteristics, though Teachers’ Education, as well as Swedish bookstores, seems to be structured by back stage rules when it comes to the Sámi People. Giddens emphasizes how social encounters between people contribute to the construction of social institutions and their organization. As such, the loose link between research based teaching and Teachers Education regarding the Sámi people, generates societal consequences. If reflexivity is a major feature of present academic life, we should expect universities to change present premises for research based new curriculums regarding Sámi history, culture and religion. The argument forwarded in this article is thus that, first of all, this situation needs to be made visible. The blind spot has to be identified and targeted. Qualified and reflexive knowledge and competence in Sámi religion, history and culture need to be integrated within all disciplines of academic education. Secondly, I argue that there is an urgent need for the (re-)establishment of the discipline of Native Studies – Indigenous Studies headed and fronted by Sámi scholars – which would have the responsibility of developing and renewing research-based curriculums on Sámi culture, history and religion. To be able to reach the full extent and depth of Sámi religion, culture and history, this discipline needs to be directed by Sámi scholars.

Representing life as opposed to being : the bio-objectification process of the HeLa cells and its relation to personalized medicine
- 2013
-

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The immortal HeLa cells case is an intriguing example of bio-objectification processes with great scientific, social, and symbolic impacts. These cells generate questions about representation, significance, and value of the exceptional, variety, individuality, and property. Of frightening (a lethal cancer) and emarginated (a black, poor woman) origins, with their ability to "contaminate" cultures and to "spread" into spaces for becoming of extraordinary value for human knowledge, well-being, and economy advancements, HeLa cells have represented humanity, and emphasized the importance of individual as a core concept of the personalized medicine. Starting from the process leading from HeLa "cells" to HeLa "bio-objects," we focus on their importance as high quality bio-specimen. We discuss the tension between phenomenological characteristic of fundamental biological research and the variety of material and methodologies in epidemiology and personalized medicine. The emerging methodologies and societal changes reflect present EU policies and lead toward a new paradigm of science.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Our claim in this paper is that not being identified as the data source might cause harm to a person or group. Therefore, in some cases the default of anonymisation should be replaced by a careful deliberation, together with research subjects, of how to handle the issues of identification and confidentiality. Our prime example in this article is community participatory research and similar endeavours on indigenous groups. The theme, content and aim of the research, and the question of how to handle property rights and ownership of research results, as well as who should be in charge of the research process, including the process of creating anonymity, should all be answered, before anonymity is accepted.

Tourism as a resouce-based industry : based on the work of Sondre Svalastog
- 2022
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Tourism as a Resource-based Industry presents the conceptual framework of the Norwegian economic geographer Sondre Svalastog and functions as a practical tool for analyzing and identifying resources when working towards a more sustainable tourism industry.Tourism resources and their sustainability are analysed through the lens of a multidisciplinary approach which includes social, economic, cultural and natural dimensions. Contextual awareness is achieved by combining research-based knowledge with local know-how and information on local conditions. The book facilitates a way forward that examines both productivity and sustainability. The usefulness and value of Svalastog's conceptual work is demonstrated by a selection of new case studies by experts in the field, from different countries including Sweden, Norway, Slovenia, and the UK.This book:- Identifies local conditions and resources, climate change concerns, different types of tourists and a variety of challenges in high-cost and low-cost countries.- Considers how best to maximise potential and production, ensuring that both the host community and tourist benefits.- Provides a wide-ranging selection of case studies covering topics such as urban heritage, national parks, niche tourism and location-specific tourism products.- Presents ideas on how to secure sound planning within the industry, using conceptual and methodological tools.Tourism researchers and students will find this book helpful for understanding the development of tourism and how it can contribute to the UN Agenda 2030 which reflects the urgency for change, to secure cultural and natural resources, health and social resilience, and the stability of a socially constructed economy. Thus, tourism research needs to include a constant review and if required, renewal of processes that manage how society, culture and natural resources are used to achieve a balanced sustainable tourism process.
