Book chapter (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Extended working life in Sweden is discussed using the old age pension reform of 2001 and debates and policies following this reform as a starting point. Extended working life is also discussed in relation to flexible work, unpaid caregiving, employers’ attitudes toward older workers and working environment. The implications of different outcomes of an extended working life for men and women and possible health effects are considered. Several issues with gender as well as health implications have to be further analyzed and evaluated to ensure not only financial sustainability of the pension system but also equal opportunities for men as well as for women both in an extended working life and in life after retirement.

Dancing my age : Emotions, interactions, and bodily sensations
- 2022
-
In: Frontiers in Sports and Active Living. - : Frontiers Media S.A.. - 2624-9367. ; 4
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- While there is a growing body of research on the social aspects of older people's dance, studies focusing on emotions are rare. In this study, we use an interactionist sociological perspective to examine the role of emotions in older social dancers' experiences in Sweden. Through qualitative interviews with 29 active or previously active dancers, we found that their experiences of emotional energy and experiences of flow override concerns of age and aging. Age, however, did become significant as the age differences at dance events could bring forth feelings of alienation associated with feeling old. In addition, cultural and gendered norms of appropriate age differences between dancing partners produced shame and pride as well as feelings of being either old or young. Moreover, certain bodily experiences were interpreted in terms of age. Overall, the study contributes to the discussions of the complexity of subjective experiences of age by highlighting its emotional aspects through social partner dancing.

Dancing through life in a changing world : Life course, historical time and serious leisure
- 2021

In: Leisure/ Loisir. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1492-7713 .- 2151-2221. ; 45:2, s. 301-330
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- There is a lack of studies taking a life course perspective in the growing field of research on the social aspects of older people’s dance. This study aims to redress this negligence by exploring older people’s experiences of social dance through life by using a life course perspective. In the process of analysis, the theoretical framework was informed by the serious leisure perspective. Twenty-six qualitative interviews were conducted with older people active in dances originating from the Swedish folk park tradition. The results demonstrate how life events, historical events, social change, and individuals’ involvement affect experiences of social dance through life. The study also highlights experiences of discontinuity caused by social change, i.e. changes in the social world of folk park dance. By combining the life course perspective with assumptions from the serious leisure perspective the study contributes to research discussions about the need to contextualize the serious leisure perspective.

Happiness and Perseverance : The Interplay of Emotional Energies in Gray Dancing
- 2020
-
In: Positive Sociology of Leisure. - Cham, Switzerland : Palgrave Macmillan. - 9783030418113 - 9783030418120 ; , s. 29-48
-
Book chapter (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Perseverance has been deemed as a precondition of flow and serious leisure. Less is known about what generates perseverance in leisure activities. This chapter is aimed at exploring perseverance by focusing on social dancing among older people. The theoretical framework is primarily based on Hochschild’s and Collins’ emotion theories. Qualitative interviews with older dancers were analysed. The results suggest that both positive and negative emotions play an important role in shaping perseverance and the overall emotion of happiness in dancing. Successful interaction rituals create positive emotions and positive emotional energy. However, challenges are of importance as the negative emotions created can contribute to negative emotional energy which makes the interviewees endure hardships. The chapter contributes to research discussions about the role of emotions in leisure.

Hur kan vi förstå rörelse? : Labans rörelseramverk, sociologi och didaktik
- 2022
-
Editorial collection (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Vad är rörelse? Hur kan vi arbeta med rörelse i dagens skola? Hur kan vi förstå kroppsliga rörelsers sociala betydelse? Boken berör dessa frågor med utgångspunkt i Rudolf Labans rörelseramverk och lyfter fram de kroppsliga rörelsernas sociala och didaktiska aspekter.Boken passar som läromedel inom idrottslärarutbildning och ämnet idrott och hälsa i skolan och i andra sammanhang där rörelse och rörelsedidaktik är i fokus. Antologin är ett bidrag till sociologins forskningstradition av att studera gester, interaktioner och samspel. Detta gör också boken användbar både för begreppsdiskussioner och praktiska övningar i undervisning inom sociologi och närliggande ämnen.I de olika kapitlen uppstår unika möten mellan Labans rörelseramverk, didaktik i ämnet dans och rörelse och sociologisk analys. De rörelseaspekter som tas upp och fördjupas är: kropp, rum, dynamiska uttryck och relation. [Text från förlaget]

Organizing for Social Change : Worker Cooperatives as Resistance to Capitalism
- 2021
-
Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- When people around the globe are increasingly confronted with the challenges of rising economic inequalities and declining democratization, often associated with the spread of globalized capitalism, it becomes difficult to defend a position of business as usual. Worker co-ops are economic associations equally owned and democratically governed by workers with the potential to contribute to economic democracy and social change. This dissertation explores how worker cooperatives, primarily in Sweden, are constructed and organized by co-operators in ways that can resist capitalism, while at the same time having to relate to capitalism as the context in which they operate. The analyzed empirical material includes an international marketing campaign promoting co-ops; qualitative material, mainly interviews, from five Swedish worker co-ops; and second-hand material on timebanks, network-based exchange services. Overall, the results show that co-operators construct worker co-ops as better for individuals and societies than capitalist-oriented organizing, which is associated with economic ideals for profit and growth and hierarchical control. In contrast, the worker co-ops organize themselves as a form of constructive resistance to capitalism by enacting social ideals such as freedom to self-govern, equal work relations through friendship and the valuing of work time, perceived to benefit society without generating profit. The co-ops’ very existence demonstrates and spreads awareness that this alternative form of organizing is viable in the here and now. However, the analysis also shows that co-ops’ resistance within capitalist market economic contexts involves risks of the reproduction of power and the compromise of ideals in order to survive. Thereby, this dissertation contributes to knowledge on the possibilities and pitfalls of organizing for social change within contexts dominated by the very power resistance is directed against.
