Exit riksdagen
- 2007
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Varför lämnar riksdagspolitiker sina uppdrag? Har avhoppen blivit vanligare? Hur påverkar detta riksdagens arbete och politikens utformning?I den här boken argumenterar författarna för att avhoppen indikerar en genomgripande förändring av svensk demokrati. Från att under lång tid ha kännetecknats av att vara en utpräglad partidemokrati, håller Sverige på att omvandlas till en ublikdemokrati. Utmärkande för publikdemokratin är att den befolkas av den politiske entrprenören som politikertyp. Den politiska entreprenören ser som sin uppgift att bryta ny mark - och har, till skillnad från den trogna partiarbetaren, en egen agenda.

Does female representation reduce all forms of corruption?
- 2016

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Are women less corrupt than men? While recent research suggests that women are less likely to be involved in corruption than men and that a higher share of women elected tends to be inversely related to the level of corruption, most dominant approaches focus on the scale of the corruption problem, i.e. how much corruption there is, rather than its vastly different forms. This paper suggests that gender differences can be better explained if we distinguish between different forms of corruption. Building on a distinction developed by Bauhr (2012; 2016) between need corruption (corruption to gain access to “fair” treatment) and greed corruption (corruption to gain access to special illicit advantages), we suggest that women are more likely than men to perceive greed corruption as prevalent in society and to mobilize against greed corruption once they attain public office. Women condemn greed corruption in part because women are typically excluded from participation in this particular form of corruption, since opaque and collusive networks, rather than open transactions and extortion drive greed corruption. Women are therefore more likely to be excluded from the short-term individual benefits of greed corruption, and more likely to experience its long-term detrimental effects on public service delivery. Our argument is supported by a preliminary analysis using new regional level data across European countries.

Exclusion or interests? Why females in elected office reduce petty and grand corruption

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Disappointed by the numerous failures of anticorruption reforms, international organisations, scholars and policy makers increasingly place their hopes on measures aimed at enhancing gender equality and in particular increasing the inclusion of female representatives in elected assemblies. Yet most studies to date focus on aggregate measures of corruption and fail to explain why the correlation between women's representation and levels of corruption occurs. Using newly collected regional-level, non-perception-based measures of corruption, this study distinguishes between different forms of corruption and shows that the inclusion of women in local councils is strongly negatively associated with the prevalence of both petty and grand forms of corruption. However, the reduction in corruption is primarily experienced among women. This suggests that female representatives seek to further two separate political agendas once they attain public office: the improvement of public service delivery in sectors that tend to primarily benefit women; and the breakup of male-dominated collusive networks.

Will Women’s Representation Reduce Bribery? Trends in Corruption and Public Service Delivery Across European Regions
- 2024
-
Ingår i: Political Behavior. - 0190-9320. ; , s. 1-24
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- While a growing body of work suggests that women representatives are less likely to be involved in corruption scandals, we know less about if changes in representation patterns also have implications for citizens’ first-hand experiences with corruption in public service delivery. This study suggests that women elected representatives reduce street level bribery, in particular when the share of women increases in contexts where relatively few women are elected or when the absolute increase in women’s representation is relatively large. Using newly collected data on the share of women in 128 regional level parliaments in 10 European countries and four rounds of the European Quality of Government Index (EQI) survey (2010–2021), our twoway fixed effects models show that on average, the proportion of women in regional parliaments is strongly associated with citizens’ self-reported experiences of bribery across all countries and years. Furthermore, our difference-in-difference design shows that the level of bribery in public service provision dropped more sharply in regions that experienced a greater absolute or greater marginal increase in women’s representation. Our results may be understood in light of women candidates placing priority on well-functioning and low corrupt public service provision and the important signals of inclusiveness, non-discrimination and decreased tolerance towards corruption that women’s representation conveys to civil servants.

Association of stigmatizing attitudes with people's opinion of depression as a valid reason for sickness absence: A Swedish vignette study
- 2022

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: Depression is a common cause of sickness absence (SA) and also highly associated with stigma. Few studies have addressed the role of stigma in relation to SA. OBJECTIVE: To investigate if attitudes to depression were associated with the public's opinion of depression as a valid reason of SA. METHODS: The study population (n = 2413) originated from a web-based panel of citizens. The survey included a short vignette describing a person with symptoms of depression and the person's work tasks, followed by a question on recommendation of SA. Negative attitudes were measured by the Depression Stigma Scale. Logistic regressions were used to estimate the odds ratios (OR) for the likelihood of not recommending SA, controlling for individual and work-related co-variates. RESULTS: The crude association between negative attitudes and not recommending SA was OR 2.15 (95% CI, 1.76-2.62). In the fully adjusted model the OR was 1.76 (95% CI, 1.40 - 2.21) for not recommending SA. CONCLUSIONS: Participants with negative attitudes to depression were more likely to not consider depression as a valid reason of sickness absence. The study supports theories on layered stigma; attitudes from one arena are related to other arenas. Future studies are needed to confirm our findings.
