The unruly young men: Exploring some key constructions of masculinity within Swedish social services
- 2016
-
In: Indian Journal of Social Work. - 0019-5634. ; 77:1, s. 21-37
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The article draws on two research projects conducted at the University of Gothenburg and highlights how social workers construct and reconstruct young masculinities. In the light of recent debates in India, induced by the gang rapes in New Delhi, the intersection between masculinity and class is of great relevance to social work. Research from both countries highlights a problematic situation within social work as boys from lower social classes often are predicted to become low achievers or drug addicts. Instead our focal point should be turned towards how we in interaction with our surroundings are shaped as males and females.

- 2015
-
In: Indian journal of social work. - 0019-5634. ; 76:4, s. 521-536
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The research attempts to demonstrate the effectiveness of cognitive interview (CI) techniques used while finalising the survey instrument for establishing the conceptual equivalence of ethical values practiced by the managers of the selected organisations from Sweden and India. The results provided substantive insight into the cultural differences that influence ethical values in the organisations. The paper highlights the types and applications of CI in the study of the different fields of human behaviour.
