Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Completed military service as a condition for suffrage – a matter of course that was reversed?As a condition for male suffrage in Sweden between 1909 and 1922 citizens were required to have completed military service. This article investigates how this restriction on voting rights, introduced more orless unanimously, was abolished equally unanimously and with little debate only 13 years later. Two main reasons are pointed out. Firstly, since women were given suffrage in 1921, this restriction affected men only and was therefore suddenly perceived to be an unjust discrimination against the latter. Secondly, this restriction was closely linked to the particular political situation in Sweden around the turn of the twentieth century. For decades the twin issues of military and suffrage reform had been interlinked and thus blocked each other until they were resolved in 1901 and 1909 respectively. Once they had been resolved, the political connection between them rapidly became redundant, as did the symbolic and practical expression of this connection, namely completed military service as a condition for suffrage.

Digitala skrivtavlor - till vad, hur och varför? : En studie om den digitala skrivtavlans betydelse för grundskolans digitalisering utifrån ett lärarperspektiv
- 2018
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The purpose of this thesis is to examine in what aspects the interactive whiteboard (IWB) has contributed to the digitalization of our schools, and how it may have changed the actual teaching in the classroom. This research explores this question from a didactic perspective, as well as from the perspective of the teachers’ reflections. The main research questions are: What do teachers use the IWB for? How do teachers use the IWB? Why do teachers use the IWB? These questions have been analyzed within a didactic framework, which is based on the expanded didactic triangle (Hudson & Meyer 2011) and the logic of events (von Wright 1983). Data was collected by interviews and surveys. The analysis was done abductively, based on a mixed methods approach. The results show that the IWB has the function of a digital hub in whole-class teaching, being mainly used as a computer projector, film projector and digital whiteboard. The main value of the IWB according to the study is that it provides the teacher access to digital information during a class. In their response, teachers express a wish to vary and adapt the teaching to include the IWB, in order to increase student motivation and participation. The study shows major differences with regards to the extent and the ways that the IWB is used in relation to teacher and school, leading to differences in pupils’ learning. Moreover, the complexity of teaching increases with the introduction of the IWB, as it requires the development of the teacher’s knowledge and skills. The study indicates that the use of the IWB implies a shift of the norm in school’s whole-class teaching to become more digital. The results are further discussed through four aspects of education: classroom practice, teachers, the school as an organization and society as a whole. The results imply that in order to develop teachers’ didactic repertoire, teachers need to be given clear assignments as well as opportunities for investigating the possibilities and limitations of digital tools, including developing and describing different methods and their advantages and disadvantages. This is proposed to be an area for further research in general and subject didactics, through action and participatory research.

The SDG Impact Assessment Tool – a free online tool for self-assessments of impacts on Agenda 2030
- 2019
-
Ingår i: Proceedings from International Conference on Sustaianable Development.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper presents the SDG Impact Assessment Tool, an online resource for self- assessments of impacts on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In addition, it presents a brief example of an SDG Impact Assessment and some existing and potential applications of the tool. The United Nations (UN) 2030 Agenda and the SDGs are a resolution for attaining sustainable development throughout the world, but also represent a framework towards which the sustainability of almost any activity can be evaluated. Although quantitative methods are indeed pivotal for achieving sustainable development, they are often limited to specific scientific fields and cannot encompass all aspects of all SDGs, including normative societal values. A qualitative and reflective approach, however, is not reserved for scientists in specific fields but can be used by anyone. Using such an approach in the tool presented here represent a good starting point for companies or other organizations that want to learn about the SDGs and minimize their negative impacts. The tool employs a self-assessment of impacts on each of the 17 SDGs, in terms of Direct positive, Indirect positive, No impact, Indirect negative, Direct negative or More knowledge needed, and outputs a graphical visualization of the results. The tool also encourages users to formulate a strategy on how to mitigate negative impacts, increase positive impacts and fill potential knowledge gaps, which can be a starting point for a more comprehensive sustainability strategy for companies or other organizations.

Värnpliktsreformer i Norden : Genusperspektiv på medborgaren i vapen
- 2017
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- En av de mer genomgripande reformerna inom ramen för framväxten av det moderna samhället i stora delar av västvärlden var etableringen av ett folkförankrat försvar genom införandet av värnpliktstjänstgöring. Så skedde också i de nordiska länderna, om än vid olika tidpunkter. Värnplikten som personalförsörjningssystem har på inget sätt varit fri från målkonflikter. Exempelvis kom folkförankring och försvarsvilja att ställas mot militär professionalism samtidigt som plikten på sina håll kopplades till politiskt inflytande. I vissa sammanhang sågs värnplikten också som ett sätt för det civila samhället att behålla kontrollen över de väpnade styrkorna.Ett länge förbisett faktum i forskningen om värnplikten har varit dess genusteoretiska implikationer. Under lång tid sågs värnplikt för ett lands manliga befolkning som synonym med en allmän värnplikt. På senare år har detta synsätt emellertid förändrats. Frågan om värnplikt för såväl kvinnor som män har aktualiserats i den politiska debatten, men också spörsmål om hur ”allmän” denna plikt bör vara.Denna session syftar till att problematisera den beskrivna utvecklingen genom ett rundabordssamtal rörande olika aspekter av värnpliktstjänstgöring ur ett genusperspektiv. Inläggen spänner från värnpliktens roll i det tidiga 1900-talets rösträttsdebatt till mer samtidshistoriska studier av kvinnlig värnplikt. Särskild vikt kommer att läggas vid komparation mellan olika nordiska länder, spänningen mellan militär och civil kultur, förändringar i samhällets syn på manligt och kvinnligt samt förändringar i medborgarens förhållande till staten. Sessionen leds av Esbjörn Larsson (Uppsala universitet) och har presentatörer från Norge genom Ulla-Britt Lilleaas (Universitetet i Oslo) och Dag Ellingsen (Høgskolen i Oslo og Akershus), Sverige genom Fia Sundevall (Stockholms universitet och Arbetarrörelsens arkiv och bibliotek) och Fredrik Thisner (Försvarshögskolan) samt Finland genom Anders Ahlbäck (Åbo Akademi).
