Autobiografias Testimoniales
- 2010
-
In: GéneRos. - Colima, Mexico : Universidad de Colima. - 1405-3098. ; 2:7, s. 121-135
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article aims a critical reading of autobiographies, particularly from a feminist point of view. But also, on how interpret narrations as witness in society. The text follows a biography Behind my mother’s street by Alexandra Pascalidou, A literal piece, in which the author tells about her feelings and experiences into being immigrant. In other words, about racism in Sweden. A possible conclusion is that immigrant’ s and women’s integration in the Swedish labour market is coloured by racial discrimination. However the emancipation’ struggle is not yet accepted in juridical’s level.

Doing autobiographies : a critical approach
- 2009
-
Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- My point of departure is that feminist research has to have an emancipatory ambition. This paper aims to reflect around self biography as method. Biographies are testimonies from different angels of experiences, including testemonies. Postcolonial feminist theories criticism about west biographical texts focus on a critique in that often use biographical works, which are excluded from the History. On the other way highlight this standpoint on differential self biographies, as a form into positioning on marginalization, and in different contexts. The ambition with this paper is to analyse a couple self biographies written by immigrants. But when I develop the analysis of it’s I will involve my voice in the middle of their. It because, my ambition is to highlight contextualize these works in a critical understanding about “situated knowledge”.

Feminism som pedagogiskt projekt
- 2008
-
Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Den här texten syftar till att reflektera över rollen feminism(er) har på universitetsundervisningen. Målsättningen är att erbjuda en kritisk översikt över hur feministisk teori och praktik samspelar i relation till undervisning – kunskapsproduktion. Mina egna erfarenheter om att undervisa på universitet ligger som fokus på det empiriskt materialet. Ambitionen att förmedla mina egna erfarenheter kan tyckas vara en självupptagen resa, men min önskan ligger i att öppna nya diskussionskanaler kring ämnen som fortfarande kan uppfattas som känsliga, nämligen i anknytning till sexistiska och rasistiska upplevelser i lärosalar eller i undervisningssituationer.

”Feministisk konst och motstånd” : En studie om (genus)nätverken inom konstaktivism
- 2009
-
Conference paper (other academic/artistic)abstract
- I denna artikel kommer att reflekteras om konstaktivister kopplade till migrationsprocesser med fokus på fallstudie som metod; dels genom att bearbeta olika konstnärers livsberättelser, dels genom att analysera deras konstverk samt dokumentera deras diasporanätverk. Texten koncentreras kring följande frågeställning: Hur förhåller sig konstfeminister till konstvärlden generellt och till kvinnor i konstvärlden specifikt? Vilka strategier utvecklar gruppen i gränslandet mellan å ena sidan deras feministiska visioner och å andra sidan deras erfarenheter av diaspora? Under vilka villkor tolkas och förmedlas deras konstproduktion?

Innovative Pedagogical Methods in Higher Education
- 2013
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The objective of this paper is to critically reflect about the results from a pilot study, in which Facebook was used as a co-learning community. A communicative tool or arena for discussing educational matters in order to facilitate for students with diverse backgrounds to reach better understanding on academic culture and knowledge production. In the pilot study we worked with a “consciousness-raising” pedagogy for encouraging and supporting students to cooperate with each other, and by the use of Facebook as a platform. The development of these pedagogical view and method can be seen as providing equal opportunities, by generating better results in higher education studies. The project is supposed to contribute to knowledge concerning more profound issues associated to ideas of democracy and empowerment connected to change and development in academic cultures. The central questions to be answered are: What means by “co-learning community” by Facebook? How does this tool stimulate students to be more confident and as a consequence, reach a better understanding about the ways into “break down” obstacles, in terms of academic cultural codes? How does it is expressed by the students in terms of benefit?

Interconnections : Narrating Nordic feminisms
- 2018
-
In: Labrys. - Brasília : T. Navarro Swain. - 1676-9651. ; 31, s. 1-21
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This article examines different narratives of feminism in the Nordic region, drawing on a variegated material collected during ethnographic fieldwork with feminist actors. At first, we examine how women and lgbt feminists of color navigate and negotiate everyday space in a struggle against racism, transphobia, misogyny and islamophobia, and suggest that these enactments shape a narrative of feminism around a logic of interconnections. Then, we explore the logic of a current influential developmental narrative of Nordic feminism as a forerunner on a global arena. Here, we offer a set of autoethnographical vignettes to highlight and explore the key logics such a narrative relies upon. We propose that a feminist narrative of interconnections illuminate another narrative logic than the developmental logic currently influential in narrations of Nordic feminisms. Creating linkages to historical memory and to the present multiplicity of relations of power, we suggest that a feminist narrative of interconnections opens up new political questions and new feminist agendas in this context. We use these discussions to illuminate a shift in the relationship between civil society and the state in this context and suggest that a methodology of histories as connected fruitfully can capture these changes, due to its possibility to bridge, and attend to, the ambivalence inherent in history as multiple.

Intersectional Perspective in Elderly Care
- 2016
-
In: International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-being. - Järfälla : Co-Action Publishing. - 1748-2623 .- 1748-2631. ; 11
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Earlier research has shown that power relationships at workplaces are constructed by power structures. Processes related to power always influence the working conditions for (in this study in elderly care) the working groups involved. Power structures are central for intersectional analysis, in the sense that the intersectional perspective highlights aspects such as gender and ethnicity (subjective dimensions) and interrelates them to processes of power (objective dimension). This qualitative study aims to explore in what way an intersectional perspective could contribute to increased knowledge of power structures in a nursing home where the employees were mostly immigrants from different countries. By using reflexive dialogues related to an intersectional perspective, new knowledge which contributes to the employeés well-being could develop. Narrative analysis was the method used to conduct this study. Through a multi-stage focus group on six occasions over six months, the staff was engaged in intersectional and critical reflections about power relationship with the researchers, by identifying patterns in their professional activities that could be connected to their subjectivities (gender, ethnicity, etc.). The result of this study presents three themes that express the staffs experiences and connect these experiences to structural discrimination. 1. Intersectionality, knowledge and experiences of professionalism, 2. Intersectionality, knowledge and experiences of collaboration, 3. Intersectionality, knowledge and experiences of discrimination. The result demonstrates that an intersectional perspective reinforces the involved abilities, during the conversations, into being clear about, for example, their experiences of discrimination, and consequently developing a better understanding of their professionalism and collaboration. Such deeper reflections became possible through a process of consciousness-raising, strengthening the employee’s self-confidence, in a positive way. © 2016 M. Cuesta.

Pedagogía de Género. Conocimientos críticos : Refleccione sobre la enseñanza en la universidad de Suecia
- 2011
-
In: GénEros. - Colima, Mexico : Universidad de Colima. - 1405-3098. ; 3:10, s. 1-12
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Este artículo trata sobre la articulación entre “teoría y práctica” (pedagogía de género) en relación a la tarea de aulas. El material usado se basa en mis experiencias personales como profesora en las Universidades de Lund y Halmstad, Suecia. Una conclusión encontrada es que “hacer género” en aulas implica distintas interpelaciones, todas basadas en un diálogo consciente y en un intercambio de experiencias. Situaciones que revitalizan cuestionamientos y hacen necesario romper barreras de silencios y evidenciarlas. Además de que sus testimonios, representan vivencias sobre visiones y opiniones acerca de la igualdad de género.

Solidaridad transnacional : Narrativa feminista
- 2016
-
In: Interpretextos. - Colima : Universidad de Colima, Facultad de Letras y Comunicación. ; :15, s. 49-66
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- El objetivo de este artículo es reflexionar sobre la narrativa feminista decolonial como testimonio de prácticas feministas transnacionales. Poniendo particularmente foco en que tipo de preguntas se priorizan y que tipo de alianzas se establecen en marcos de solidaridad transnacional. El texto parte de una mirada dialéctica basada en el discurso de análisis crítico como metodológica, a través del cual se interrelacionan referencias teóricas y relatos de prácticas feministas concretas (textos y contextos), en forma interdependiente. De esta manera se puede afirmar que el feminismo decolonial revitaliza la narrativa feminista desde un planteo transgresor y pluralista.

Tejiendo lazos. Paros feministas : Ni Una Menos y La Marea Verde
- 2020
-
In: Interpretextos : revista semestral de creación y divulgación de las humanidades. - Colima : Universidad de Colima, Facultad de Letras y Comunicación. ; 13:23, s. 67-92
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- El objetivo de este artículo es performativo, es decir, desde una mirada académica, se construye una narrativa presencial y revisa como el activismo feminista se articula con el colectivo público, al interpelar el orden patriarcal. Particularmente desde las convocatorias de Ni Una Menos y manifestaciones como La Marea verde. El enfoque metodológico toma como punto de partida la fenomenología feminista, al involucrar las distintas narrativas combinadas, teoría y práctica desde una mirada decolonial; al ser estas narrativas expresiones de una solidaridad intersubjetiva y pluralista. O sea, que el feminismo/los feminismos y el colectivo público confrontan al poder desde actos transgresores y conscientes, tejiendo lazos para generar cambios en los valores normativos. El carácter de estas propuestas revitaliza la noción de ciudadanía, así como también confrontan la agenda neoliberal, integrada a la política estatal.

Using Facebook as a Co-learning Community in Higher Education
- 2016
-
In: Learning, Media & Technology. - Abingdon : Routledge. - 1743-9884 .- 1743-9892. ; 41:1, s. 55-72
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Students’ cultural capital plays a major role in their success in higher education. In Sweden today, many students come from diverse cultural, social and educational backgrounds. Knowledge of requirements in academic systems differs widely. Some students feel insecure about how to interpret academic codes, thus weakening these students’ opportunities for academic success. The major goal of this project was to lay the groundwork for a more equal educational system. Using social media, in this case conversations (e.g., chats) in a closed forum on Facebook monitored by a tutor, we aimed to improve student integration into academic culture. We differentiated two central themes related to student conversations on Facebook: (1) Access to academic habitus – cracking codes and (2) Emancipation by co-learning – extended academic codes. It was found that students participating in study groups created on Facebook learnt to better crack and extend the codes extant in university studies. © 2015 Taylor & Francis

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Este artículo discute acerca del rol de la “resistencia de género” como forma de protesta testimonial, sobre la discriminación y marginalización (género y etnicidad) en la sociedad sueca. Como ejemplo ha analizar voy a usar canciones y textos de protesta escritos por Nabila Abdul Fatta, asi como tambien entrevistas con la misma. Textos los cuales podrian inscribirse dentro del debate sobre “género y diferencia” desde una perspectiva feminista y antirasista. El artículo dessarrolla y discute temas centrales acerca de la discriminación (género y etnicicdad) en la sociedad sueca, asi como tambien del rol que el rap feminista y antirasista ocupan en la misma. Esto a partir de demostrar como la voz de Nabila describe, interpreta y representa a un colectivo (género, etnicidad) y de como el rap femenino (poniendo a Nabila como ejemplo) se apropia de espacios públicos transformandolos apartir de sus protestas.

Welfare technology, ethics and well-being a qualitative study about the implementation of welfare technology within areas of social services in a Swedish municipality
- 2020
-
In: International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-being. - Abingdon : Taylor & Francis. - 1748-2623 .- 1748-2631. ; 15:sup1
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Purpose: Digitalization and e-health have potential to generate good quality, equal health, well-being and to develop and strengthen individuals' resources with the goal of increased independence and participation in society. The implementation of welfare technology requires knowledge of digitalization, as well as an awareness of its meaning in terms of ethical principles and ethical analysis. The purpose of this study was to describe ethical analysis concerning the implementation of welfare technology, in terms of both strategies and tools, within areas of social services in a Swedish municipality.Method: We followed a working model that focused on increased knowledge and experience in the implementation of welfare technology from an ethical perspective. In the data collection were observations, a questionnaire with open-ended questions and focus group discussions used.Results: The analysis showed that when welfare technology was introduced and implemented within the area of social services in a municipality, ethical awareness resulting from the conflicts between various interests and values had to be addressed.Conclusions: The ethical analysis improved implementation of strategies and tools in terms of facts and values, and invisible underlying values to the concept of well-being.

Gränsdragningar och överskridanden : Feministisk aktivism som hoppets politik
- 2016
-
In: Gränser, mobilitet och mobilisering : Boundaries, mobility and mobilisation.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Med utgångspunkt i ett två-årigt etnografiskt fältarbete med feministiska aktivistiska grupper i Sverige har vi undersökt vilken förändring feministiska aktivister syftar till att åstadkomma, vilka frågor de driver och hur de utövar och stärker sin kamp. Genom sina heterogena protester riktade grupperna vårt intresse mot två dominanta narrativ i Sverige idag: nyliberalismen och nationen. Feministiska aktivisters mångfacetterade kritik av dessa narrativ går att förstå som ett tänkande och handlande från gränsen, där geografiska, kunskapsmässiga, politiska och sociala gränser synliggörs, förhandlas och omförhandlas i en feministisk dekolonial kamp mot modernitetens och kapitalismens kontinuerliga expansion. I sin kamp utmanar och förändrar feministiska aktivister samhället, men de förändrar även våra förståelser av makt och våra relationer till varandra. Som ett resultat av fältarbetet publicerade vi under våren 2016 boken Hoppets politik (Makadam förlag). I boken ifrågasätter vi det rådande antagandet om feminism som en fragmenterad och/eller försvagad rörelse och visar istället hur feministiska aktivisters sammansatta protester mot kopplingarna mellan sexism, cis/heteronormativitet, rasism och kapitalism gör det möjligt att bygga allianser inom feminism, samtidigt som gränsdragningar, liksom viljan att överskrida gränser, fortfarande har en central funktion inom feministisk kamp. Mot bakgrund av analyserna i boken vill vi i den här presentationen ge några exempel på hur detta tänkande och handlande från (den andra sidan) gränsen kommer till uttryck inom feministisk aktivism idag.

Subjective emotions, political implications : Thinking through tensions and contradictions in feminist knowledge production
- 2014
-
In: Ex aequo - Portuguese Journal of Women's Studies. - Oeiras : Associação Portuguesa de Estudos sobre as Mulheres - APEM. - 0874-5560. ; :29, s. 23-38
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The aim of this article is to problematize the social and emotional dimensions of the research process, guided by the following questions: How can we understand our own implication in the research process, in situations of personal interaction, as well as in terms of wider relationships of power? How do we balance the relationship with the research participants so that we as researchers and as feminists establish trust in our interactions, and act in an accountable way in relation to our research participants? And, what is the role of emotions in this context: can we reach a deeper understanding of these complex processes by paying attention to contradictions when subjective desires and collective goals are not in agreement, for example?
