Turkar i Stockholm : En studie av invandrare, politik och samhälle
- 1980
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The present study which is a product of the research project "Political Resocialization of Immigrants (PRI)" carried out at the Political Science Department of the Stockholm University is based primarily on interviews in 1976 with Turkish immigrants in the 18—67 age group domiciled in the Stockholm municipality. The questions this study addresses itself are: — Which pre-migration and migration characteristics of Turkish immigrants in Stockholm are of special importance with respect to their political resocialization? — What are the living conditions of Turks in Stockholm and what are their perceptions and subjective evaluations of these conditions? — In what ways and to what extent do Turks participate in politics in Sweden? — What are the consequences of Turkish immigrants' background characteristics, living conditions and subjective evaluations of these conditions for their political resocialization? The study consists of nine chapters. The first three provide an introduction to this field of research, a discussion of theoretical points of departure, and an account of methods of data-collection. Next two chapters give background information on emigration from Turkey and immigration to Sweden and Stockholm. Chapter six presents data on the Turks' living conditions. They appear to be highly concentrated in the unskilled manual occupations and certain residential areas. Their social contacts are largely limited to relations with fellow countrymen, and they display very poor knowledge of the Swedish language. Chapter seven gives data on the Turks' perceptions and subjective evaluations of their living conditions. Results reveal a relatively high degree of satisfaction primarily with the material welfare they have attained in Sweden, and a rather strong attachment to Turkish culture and identity. Chapter eight discusses the political-cultural background of Turks and provides data on their political participation in Sweden. Findings indicate lower levels of political information, exposure, interest and activity among the Turks as compared to other immigrant groups under study in the PRI-project. The final chapter summarizes the results of the study which show that the political resocialization of Turkish immigrants has so far made little progress. Their political-cultural background characteristics and their living conditions in Stockholm are closely related with their political relearning.

Foreign policy change : United States' foreign policy toward the Soviet Union and the People's Republic of China 1961-1980
- 1984
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study analyzes the circumstances under which nation states change their foreign policies. Beside the main purpose of studying the changes in American policy toward the USSR and the People’s Republic of China (PRC), the study has three additional purposes. One of these is to evaluate to what extent two separate perspectives may contribute to the explanation of the changes found in American policies toward the two states. Another purpose is to contribute to the further development of a general framework for the analysis of foreign policy change. The final purpose is to further develop a method for content analysis of verbalized policy and of the ideas on which this policy is based.It is found that there are rather large differences in the stability of the American policies toward the two nations. With the exception of the fundamental change in American China policy that occurred in the period 1970-1972, this policy has been remarkably stable in the period studied. The policies toward the Soviet Union have varied to a greater extent.The first perspective which is applied to explain these changes is that of the strategic triangle in which the relationships between the three nations are assumed to be interrelated. It is found that this provides a partial explanation for the policy changes. In particular, this perspective appears to partly explain the changes from an American Cold War-policy toward both nations to the relaxation of tensions that occurred in the early 1970s. The second explanatory perspective is that of the impact of the domestic politics context on American foreign policymaking. Here, it is found that the increased politicization of the American relationship with the Soviet Union after roughly 1973 provides a partial explanation for the instability of U.S. Soviet policy in this period.The application of a framework for the study of foreign policy change shows that it is fruitful to analyze these processes by way of a more general approach. The application of some parts of the framework in the dissertation indicates the importance of cognitive and domestic politics factors for change and stability in foreign policy.Finally, despite the continued existence of certain methodological problems, it is found that the applied content analytic method does serve its purpose to analyze change and stability in policies and in the ideas on which these policies are based.

Departement och verk : Om synen på den centrala statsförvaltningen och dess uppdelning i en förändrad offentlig sektor
- 1982
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The present study is devoted to one of the aspects, the division of "ministries" into departments and independent agencies, which is internationally seen as one of the pecularities of the Swedish public administration. (The other aspects being the access to public acts, the important role of the municipalities and, possibly, the existence of the "ombudsman".)The first chapter sketches the developmental trends of the public administration and its changing roles. The question of steering is also treated in this context. Finally, the chapter discusses the demands placed on the public administration which are based on legal, political and economic/ technical considerations.The second chapter presents three perspectives on the division between departments and agencies: firstly, a historical recounting of its origin and development; secondly, a constitutional background; and thirdly, an international comparative outlook.The third chapter takes the three different types of demands presented in the first chapter as a starting point for the classification of administrative views based on these demands. A selection of articles written in professional and political magazines supplies the material for the classification of these views according to how the dividing line between the administrative levels is seen and also according to which "actors" (the department, the agency or the individual administrator) are perceived as having to be controlled in order to obtain the intended result through the steering.The fourth chapter makes use of the data from a multinational research project to explore the views of the top-level administrators on the differences between departments and agencies.The fifth chapter presents the corresponding data for politicians, i. e. Members of Parliament. It also gives a more widened account of their general opinions of the public administration in Sweden.Finally, the sixth chapter offers a comparison between the views of the bureaucrats and of the politicians on this subject. This is followed by a discussion of the importance of different themes that have been dealt with in the previous chapters. The chapter is concluded by recalling the trends within the public administration since the data were gathered.
