- European Union policies emphasise the importance of entrepreneurship and self-employment to maintain economic growth, a solution influenced by the USA and research from schools of business. There are expectations of higher education graduates that they are innovative, will start businesses and will employ others. However, transferring a solution from one country to another may not be as simple as that. This study questions the recommendations made in EU policies which mainly focus on how to support individuals to become self-employed. Extensive data from the Swedish population registry of approximately 90,000 tertiary-educated people, all born in the mid-1970s, is used to analyse the extent to which this group became self-employed. Results show that societal and cultural differences need to be considered when creating such policies.

- Entrepreneurship education is seen as a way to get more women into their own businesses. This paper reports on pedagogical interventions designed to accomplish this. Policies on entrepreneurship education produced by the European Union from 2004 to 2018 were categorized according to the research questions: How are women to be educated? What subjects should be taught? And by whom? Policy analysis combined with a neoliberal feminist perspective was applied to understand why entrepreneurship education has not been as successful as expected. Findings show that the ideal teacher is a female entrepreneur whose knowledge just needs to be copied by the students. What is seen as useful knowledge is ideologically selected, including ways of thinking and behaving. According to policy analysis with emphasis on neoliberal feminism, the focus of the policies are not primarily about getting more women into self-employment, but an ideological education about how to think and behave “right.”

Kvantitativ metod - en uppsatshandbok för utbildningsvetenskap
- 2022
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Med utgångspunkt i IMRAD-strukturen (inledning, metod, resultat, diskussion) visar boken hur du kan planera en kvantitativ undersökning, hur olika datainsamlingsmetoder kan användas, hur du kan bearbeta dina insamlade data för att kunna presentera resultatet på ett tydligt sätt och hur du kan finputsa ditt arbete inför examinationen. I boken lyfts också betydelsen av teoretisk utgångspunkt, kontext och etik fram. Detta är något som inte alltid ges plats och betydelse i kvantitativa studier, men som på ett fundamentalt sätt bidrar till arbetets vetenskapliga kvalitet. Kvantitativ metod riktar sig till dig som vill få en tydlig och pedagogisk vägledning om hur man genomför en kvantitativ undersökning och redovisar den i ett examensarbete. Den kan användas av dig som skriver din första akademiska uppsats, av dig som tidigare skrivit en kvalitativ uppsats och som nu vill analysera siffermaterial eller av dig som undviker en kvantitativ ansats i tron att det krävs omfattande kunskaper i matematik för att analysera statistiskt material.
