    Moral Decison making, Narratives and Geneteic Diagnosis.2011In: Ethical Dilemmas in Prenatal Diagnosis / [ed] Fischmann, T, Hildt, D, Dordrecht: Springer , 2011, p. 167-176Chapter in book (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Technological developments in the life sciences confront us with new facets of a Faustian seduction. Are we „playing God“ more and more, as claimed by critical authors of modernity? Achievements in genetic research produce ethical dilemmas which need to be the subject of reflection and debate in modern societies. Denial of ambivalences that ethical dilemmas arouse constitutes a threat to societies as well as to individuals. The book presents a compilation of some of the results of the interdisciplinary European study “Ethical Dilemmas Due to Prenatal and Genetic Diagnostics” (EDIG), which investigated some of these dilemmas in detail in a field which is particularly challenging: prenatal diagnosis. When results from prenatal diagnosis show fetal abnormalities, women and their partners are confronted with ethical dilemmas regarding: the right to know and the right not to know; decision-making about the remainder of the pregnancy and the desire for a healthy child; responsibility for the unborn child, for its well-being and possible suffering; life and death. This book provides answers from an ethical, psychoanalytical and medical viewpoint.

    Perspectives on Applied Ethics2007Collection (editor) (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Applied ethics is a growing, interdisciplinary field dealing with ethical problems in different areas of society. It includes for instance social and political ethics, computer ethics, medical ethics, bioethics, envi-ronmental ethics, business ethics, and it also relates to different forms of professional ethics.

    From the perspective of ethics, applied ethics is a specialisation in one area of ethics. From the perspective of social practice applying eth-ics is to focus on ethical aspects and implications of that particular practice.

    The Erasmus Mundus Masters Course in Applied Ethics is supported by the European Union. The programme is a collaboration between three European universities; Linköping University, The Centre for Ap-plied Ethics, (Sweden), Utrecht University, the Ethics Institute, (The Netherlands), and the Norwegian University of Science and Technol-ogy, Department of Philosophy, Programme for Applied Ethics (Nor-way).

    Each year, the programme starts with a common introduction for all students. During this introduction, the teachers present different per-spectives on applied ethics. In this volume the introductions are pub-lished. They give a broad view of different aspects on applied ethics.

    Principles and approaches in ethics assessment: Research integrity2015Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Scientific research is a conscious and systematic approach to acquire knowledge, based on theories, methods and standards that have been developed through the history of scientific disciplines. The terms “research integrity” and “good research practice” refer to ideals for how research ought to be performed.

    In the 1940s the American sociologist Robert Merton proposed norms for scientific research that have influenced the discussion on research integrity since then. According to Merton good research should not be secret or anyone’s property but requires instead openness and publicity. Merton uses the term communism/communalism for this norm. The second norm, according to Merton, is universalism, which means that the only relevant criteria for assessing research are the scientific criteria. The position or characteristic of the researcher has no relevance. Thirdly, disinterestedness means that the main motive driving the researcher should be the quest for knowledge, not for example economic gain or fame. Finally, the researcher should always be open for questioning the result. Merton calls this “organized scepticism”. This norm coheres with Karl Popper’s famous demarcation line between research and other activities; falsification, i.e. the constant efforts to falsify one’s result in order to get closer to the truth. Merton’s norms for research are summarized in the acronym CUDOS. Although the exact meaning and implication of Merton’s criteria can be discussed, they imply an ideal for scientific work and deviations from this ideal can be seen as misconduct in research.

    Merton’s CUDOS norms are well - known examples of ideals and norms for science. These norms could be seen as the basis for professional ethics of researchers. Scientific misconduct and fraud are deviation from the ideals of science and good research practice. In the following we first conceptualise the area of scientific misconduct. Then we present some norms, guidelines and codes of scientific integrity. In the next section we

    argue that scientific misconduct is a real problem that must be taken seriously by the research community and finally we discuss how scientific misconduct is investigated, how common it is and how it can be explained.

    Proceedings from The 49th Societas Ethica Annual Conference 2012, Theme: Ethics and Migration, August 23–26, 2012, Lucian Blaga University Sibiu, Romania2012Conference proceedings (editor) (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    August 23-26 2012 Societas Ethica, the European Society for Research in Ethics held its 49th annual conference. The conference theme was “Ethics and Migration” and the setting the Romanian city Sibiu in Transylvania. The site for the conference mirrored the theme. Transylvania has during the centuries been a place for waves of migration, for example, already in the 12th Century it received many German immigrants. It is also today a home for hundreds of thousands of Roma people.

    Migration is so far a neglected issue within applied ethics. This is surprising due to both the seriousness of the issue and the ethical dilemmas it poses. With this conference the Societas Ethica, wished to bolster the ethical discussion on migration. The conference channels illustrated the range of ethical issues that migration raises:

    Many people migrate from poverty and oppression but are stopped at the borders of the rich nations in Europe and America; what are their obligations towards the migrants? How is migration related to global justice?

    Migrants and refugees are vulnerable. They have lost their communities and citizenships. What are the rights of migrants and refugees? Who is obliged to protect their rights?

    Fortress Europe has unfortunately become a reality. With surveillance, fences and barbwire Europe tries to keep the migrants at a distance. But, what are the moral obligations of the individual European nations and of the European Union? What do we owe them?

    Immigrants who have successfully entered Europe are often met with hostility and end up in segregated communities. What are the ethical challenges of segregation and conflicts based on religion and ethnicity?

    The unknown person, the different, the Other, is often despised and persecuted. European history shows ample of evidence of this fact. How should minorities, like for example the Roma people, be respected and included by the majority populations and by the states?

    The first key note speech was held by Dr Gernot Haupt, Alpen-Adria University Klagenfurt over the theme “Antigypsism and migration”. Haupt showed with plenty of examples how the Roma people in Europe have been victims of constant policies of exclusion; from repression to extermination culminating in the Holocaust in the 1930s and 1940s. Haupt expressed critique of the present attitude of the majority in societies with Roma minorities. Their message is; it is always they, the Roma, who must change, not we!

    Dr Matthew Gibney from Oxford University addressed the topic “Refugees and justice between states”. He noticed that presently the majority of the world’s refugees go to neighboring poor countries and hence that the refugee situation exacerbate the global inequalities. How can this change? Are not for example nations responsible for creating massive streams of refugees, like the United States after the attack on Iraq in 2003, obliged to host the resulting refugees?

    Dr Michelle Becka from University of Frankfurt am Main talked about “Ethics on the border. Towards a theological horizon in the discourse of migration”. She emphasized that being a stranger is an important theme in the biblical tradition; migrants are in focus for theological ethics. When the humanity of migrants is reduced due to oppression and segregation it is crucial for theological ethics to emphasize the need for solidarity.

    In the last keynote speech Dr Oliver Bakewell from Oxford University talked over the theme “The relationships between migration and human development”. His lecture focused on the potential positive effects of migration for development through Diasporas communities with links to their homelands, remittances, i.e. the financial support that immigrants send back to their home countries, etc.

    More than 40 participants, among them many young scholars from all over Europe but also from India, the United States, Hong Kong and Australia, presented high quality paper. As the only European society open for scholars in moral philosophy, theological ethics and applied ethics, Societas Ethica has a great potential to influence and stimulate the ethical discussions in Europe.

    "...punishing the children for the sin of the fathers to the third and fourth generation..." An Argument for Global Rectificatory Justice2007In: Political Practices and International Order / [ed] Stefanans Heuser, Hans Günter Ulrich, Zürich: LiT Verlag , 2007, p. 208-218Chapter in book (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    International order is one of the most challenging issues in political ethics today, and its place within the multifaceted fleld of politics is frequently debated. The diverse phenomena resulting from 'globalisation' - particularly in the wake of the end of the so-called Cold War - urge us to think about our 'world' in terms of a single political entity. Besides the existing international institutions, however, it is still open to question what this entity should be and what concrete political practices should correspond to it. In the essays collected in this book, political scientists, sociologists, philosophers, theologians and policy advisors explore how political practices can be institutionally localised without necessarily becoming incorporated into structures of governance. Political ethics, as presented in this book, seeks to address the particular practices of power, justice, and peace of citizens themselves, and to assess their relevance for the shaping of international institutions

    Rectification for Atrocities under Colonialism2016In: Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies, ISSN 1369-801X, E-ISSN 1469-929X, Vol. 18, no 6, p. 852-864Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Wars and injustices can have wide-ranging reverberations. Colonialism ended – with a few exceptions – over fifty years ago, but there are still many traces left. In this essay I focus on two cases of atrocities under colonialism that have left scars in the present and my question is: how can a nation rectify for the long-term effects of an aggression? What is the appropriate ethical response? The two examples are the German genocide of the Herero tribe in 1904–1905 and the British war against the Mau Mau movement in Kenya in the 1950s. The examples are chosen because they both illustrate enduring claims for rectification after aggressions. After the presentation of these cases and of how Germany and Great Britain have responded, I discuss the meaning of rectificatory justice and criteria for reasonable claims for rectification.

    “…restoring the dignity of the victims”. Is global rectificatory justice feasible?2010In: Ethics and global politics, ISSN 1654-4951, Vol. 3, no 2, p. 85-99Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The discussion of global justice has mainly focused on global distributive justice. This article argues for global rectificatory justice, mainly by former colonial states in favor of former colonized peoples. The argument depends on the following premises: (1) there is a moral obligation to rectify the consequences of wrongful acts; (2) colonialism was on the whole harmful for the colonies; (3) the present unjust global structure was constituted by colonialism; and (4) the obligation of rectificatory justice is trans-generational so long as there are at present identifiable beneficiaries and victims of past injustice. Although it is too demanding to ask for full compensation for 450 years of colonialism, the former colonial powers can in different ways and to the best of their efforts contribute to change the present inequalities that are the legacy of history. A theory of global rectificatory justice is complementary to a theory of global distributive justice and enables us to develop a fuller understanding of the meaning of global justice.

    SOCIAL JUSTICE, HEALTH AND POVERTY IN UGANDA

    John Barugahare

    Injustice in Uganda manifests in many ways. One most serious, yet least discussed social injustice, is inequity in Health. Although there are two equally important aims of health systems – efficiency and equity, in Uganda too much focus has been on ensuring efficiency and as a consequence concerns of equity have been relegated. Ultimately, health policy in Uganda has disproportionately negatively affected the poor’s livelihoods in general and the trend seems to be worsening by day. Even though it is possible to borrow a leaf from the Western literature on how to design a good health policy, low income countries like Uganda have special features that render the extrapolation of the Western input good but not enough. In particular, these special features are the level of resource constraints, poverty and the financing mechanism of health care services. These three have very serious implications for equity in health. In general, there is a lot of injustice in the Uganda health care and this has been mainly due to poverty levels and the financing mechanism which the system relies on. Hence, there is an urgent need to concentrate on a discussion of injustice in health because health enhances people’s functionings and is a mandatory condition for people’s enjoyment of other life opportunities to the extent that if a section of a society is made to suffer injustice in health, this will translate into injustice in all the dimensions of their lives. This is something that fair‐minded people cannot afford to live with for long. Therefore, it is important in this work to illustrate how the above three special features play to cause and sustain inequity in Uganda health care system and to  suggest the starting point to overcoming this injustice, not only in Uganda but as a general trend in health policy analysis.

    THE POLITICS OF RESTORING ETHICS AND THE CHALLENGE OF PATRIOTISM IN SERVICE DELIVERY IN UGANDA’S PUBLIC SERVICE

    Dickson Kanakulya

    Reports indicate that there is an erosion of professionalism and ethics across most of the East African public service systems and this is limiting the efficient service delivery and negatively impacts on social justice. Because of this challenge many approaches are being applied to mitigate it, such as the institutional, legal, cultural and the political. This paper discusses the political approach and particularly problematizes the political push for patriotism in Uganda. Most of the critique and analysis was done while carrying out research and consultancy with Makerere Centre for Applied Ethics (MACAE) in selected districts in Uganda under the project “Pro‐poor Integrity” (PPI) funded by Tiri and DFID. The paper argues that the government’s policy of patriotism is more of politicking than real improvement of service delivery to the people. Political interference in public service has engendered a culture of impunity and increased unethical conduct among ‘politically‐connected’ civil servants right from the grass root service to the top administration, The paper argues that if ethics in Uganda’s public administration is to improve politicians ought  to be divorce party‐biased ideology from the patriotism discourse such that it can appeal to a wider spectrum of Ugandans.

    PERSISTENT COLONIAL COERCION IN CONTEMPORARY UGANDA: FOUNDATION OF SOCIAL INJUSTICES IN THE COUNTRY

    Gervase Tusabe

    Since 1962, all Uganda’s major centres of power i.e., political, economic and military have always been dominated by a chosen few, and the attendant wealth that goes with such powers has always been disproportionately enjoyed in favour of these chosen few when a considerable large number of people in the country are living under the weight of abject poverty.

    The major argument advanced in this paper is that the fundamental cause of this experience of injustice in Uganda is the persistent domestic colonial mode of political administration that is managed by a particular closed group of individuals who more or less conspired to work together to promote their self‐centred interests at the cost of deliberately ignoring the legitimate interests of the Ugandans who are outside their group.

    STRUCTURAL INJUSTICES AND THE ETHICS OF ENGENDERING POVERTY ERADICATION POLICIES IN UGANDA

    Michael George Kizito

    Since time immemorial, poverty reduction interventions in Sub‐Saharan Africa like everywhere in the South, have focused on the individual as the basic ingredient of a moral society (ethical individualism). According to this perspective, in order to lift human persons out of poverty, it is imperative to integrate poor persons into poverty eradication interventions irrespective of sex, social status and gender. Scholars and institutions that subscribed to this conception of poverty thought that individuals were poor because of personal weaknesses (case poverty).This perspective has been greatly challenged due to the upsurge of gender and human rights scholarship in the 20th century. Gender scholars have painstakingly argued that in order to understand poverty, we need to look at society (ethical collectivism). They have rejected the Women in Development(WID) discourse that aims at integrating women into the development process in favour of the Gender and Development(GAD) approach to development and poverty reduction that aims at confronting power relations between men and women (empowerment).This GAD perspective looks at poverty in terms of the powerlessness speared head by prevailing structures in society (structural poverty) and hence the need to empower vulnerable persons such as women to challenge structures and strictures of oppression. The International Monetary fund (IMF) and World Bank as vehement promoters of economism in Sub‐Saharan Africa for decades have urged governments to include the perspectives of the poor in poverty polices through what they call participatory poverty assessments (PPAs). Despite its deceptive appearance, this PPAs stance of the IMF and World Bank tacitly looks at poverty as a case and not structural issue and that is why Uganda’s ambitious poverty reduction policy though greatly informed by Participatory Poverty Assessments greatly ignores structures and strictures that render women vulnerable to poverty. This paper critically assesses the obliviousness of Uganda’s Agricultural poverty policy to structures and how this has militated on the gender poverty production in Uganda. The paper contends that in order to realise engendered poverty eradication in Uganda, it is pertinent for the agricultural policy to ultimately make paradigm shift from focusing on the individual as the basic ingredient of a moral society (ethical individualism) to confronting structures and strictures that disempower and vulnerablelise individual moral agents (ethical collectivism).

    Abstract [en]

    The proceedings from the Societas Ethica’s annual conference 2015 looks different than previous years. We do not publish the full papers this year. The reason for this change is that less and less papers have been submitted the last years due to the fact that most academic journals are hesitant to publish articles that already have been published in conference proceedings. So, in order to be able to mirror the conferences, the board of Societas Ethica decided that it is better that the conference proceedings contain the paper abstracts.

    The proceedings contain three parts; first, the thematic introduction by the President, then the key note speeches and the responses to the key notes and finally, the conference paper abstracts.

    Specifying Rights: the Case of TRIPS2011In: Public Health Ethics, ISSN 1754-9981, Vol. 4, no 1, p. 63-69Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The TRIPS-agreement has been widely discussed. Critics have critisised it for favouring property rights at the cost of public health in AIDS-stricken development countries. In this article the conflict between on the one hand Intellectual Property Rights and on the other a right to subsistence is analysed with the help of a method for specification. The rationalization of TRIPS and its amendments raises two questions for ethics, one normative and one meta-ethical. Firstly, which right has priority: the right to property or the right to subsistence? Secondly, how can conflicting rights be reconciled in a coherent ethical system. The aim of the article is to answer these two questions and in order to do that the method of specification developed by the philosopher Henry Richardson is applied. The result is a specified norm applicable for this and similar kind of rights conflicts.

    Abstract [sv]

    Etik är ett brett och angeläget ämne som engagerar forskare inom teologin, filosofin och samhällsdisciplinerna. Inte minst under Professor Carl-Henric Grenholms tid som ämnesföreträdare har etikforskningen i Uppsala haft en sådan bredd. Som en replik på Carl-Henric Grenholms bestående insatser har ett flertal forskare från Europa och USA bidragit med artiklar till denna hyllningsskrift.

    Tre områden har fått illustrera hans mångåriga engagemang som forskare och lärare: etisk teori, socialetik samt teologi och etik. Här analyseras frågor om religion och moral, människovärde, praktiskt förnuft, tolerans, sexualitet och lagring av kärnavfall. Antologin rymmer ett brett spektrum av artiklar skrivna med varje forskareseget temperament och stil. De bildar tillsammans ett smakprov på de områden som under några decennier präglat Carl-Henric Grenholms forskning.

    I måndags rapporterade Dagens Eko att de karibiska staterna kräver gottgörelse från en rad europeiska länder, däribland Sverige, för det lidande deras befolkningar utsatts för genom slaveriet och slavhandeln.

    Bakgrunden är att 15 karibiska stater tillsatt en gemensam undersökningskommission ledd av historikern Hilary Beckles med syfte att undersöka slavhandelns effekter i Karibien. Beckles har i samband med denna undersökning också publicerat boken ”Britain’s Black Debt” (2013).

    Abstract [en]

    Emergent technologies are pushing the boundaries of how both qualitative and quantitative researchers practice their craft, and it has become clear these changes are dramatically altering research design, from the questions researchers ask and the ways they collect data, to what they even consider data.  Gathering a broad range of new developments in one place, The Handbook of Emergent Technologies in Social Research offers comprehensive, up-to-date thinking on technological innovations. In addition to addressing how to effectively apply new technologies-such as the internet, mobile technologies, geospatial technologies (GPS), and the incorporation of computer-assisted software programs (CAQDAS) to qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods approaches to research projects-many chapters provide in-depth examples of practices within both disciplinary and interdisciplinary environments and outside the academic world in multi-media laboratories and research institutes. Not only an authoritative view of cutting-edge technologies and their applications, the Handbook examines the costs and benefits of utilizing new technologies on the research process, the potential misuse of these techniques for methods practices, and the ethical and moral dimensions of emergent technologies, especially with regard to issues of surveillance and privacy. The Handbook of Emergent Technologies in Social Research is an essential resource for research methods courses in various fields, including the social sciences, education, communications, computer science, and health services, and an indispensable guide for social researchers looking to incorporate emerging technologies into their methods and practice.

    A World of Fiction. Bengt Lidner and Global Compassion in Eighteenth-Century Sweden2013In: Sweden in the eighteenth-century world: provincial cosmopolitans / [ed] Göran Rydén, Farnham: Ashgate, 2013, p. 299-324Chapter in book (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Eighteenth-century Sweden was deeply involved in the process of globalisation: ships leaving Sweden’s central ports exported bar iron that would drive the Industrial Revolution, whilst arriving ships would bring not only exotic goods and commodities to Swedish consumers, but also new ideas and cultural practices with them. At the same time, Sweden was an agricultural country to a large extent governed by self-subsistence, and - for most - wealth was created within this structure. This volume brings together a group of scholars from a range of disciplinary backgrounds who seek to present a more nuanced and elaborated picture of the Swedish cosmopolitan eighteenth century. Together they paint a picture of Sweden that is more like the one eighteenth-century intellectuals imagined, and help to situate Sweden in histories of cosmopolitanism of the wider world.

    "I känslofulla sköna!" Bengt Lidner, Göttingen och den kvinnliga läsaren [The emotional beauty!]2014In: European Journal of Scandinavian Studies, ISSN 2191-9399, E-ISSN 2191-9402, Vol. 44, no 2, p. 299-316Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    The Swedish poet Bengt Lidner (1757‒1793) studied in Göttingen in 1780‒1781. A spatial analysis of the poet’s global biography and his poetical geography points to Enlightenment universalism as well as to the poetical ideals expressed in Göttingen – the Göttinger Hain, Göttinger Musenalmanach, and the teachings of Professor Christian Gottlob Heyne. Even Lidner’s opera libretto Medea displays connections to Göttingen, through Heyne’s focus on Greek tragedy and Lidner’s expressed source of inspiration, Friedrich Wilhelm Gotter. However, Lidner’s transcultural poetry failed in the Swedish context, lacking a proper literary market. In an attempt to create an audience in Stockholm, Lidner turned to female readers in his forewords and other paratexts. In fact, Lidner transformed the Medea character into a representation of his female Swedish reader, the ideal mother and spouse. The spatial analysis, including space both literally and in an imaginary sense, leads to the conclusion that Lidner’s sentimental mode of writing displayed transcultural traits interacting with – and even colliding with – local conditions

    ”Hinduismen – en förvirrande mångfald”? En granskning av svenska religionsläromedels framställningar av hinduism2014Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (One Year)), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Undervisningen i skolan kan vara utformad på många olika sätt. I vissa fall fungerar läromedel som grunden i undervisningen, i andra fall används läromedel som endast en utgångspunkt vars kärna fördjupas med andra användbara medel. Var man än placerar läromedlets position inom klassrummets ramar är dess användning närvarande på ett eller annat sätt.

    Det finns därmed ett stort antal elever i den svenska skolan som kommer i kontakt med lärobokstexter. Kunskapsinhämtningen som eleverna gör ger dem perspektiv på vår omvärld. Vilka dessa perspektiv blir beror på hur läroboksförfattarna väljer att utforma sina texter. De svenska läroplanerna förespråkar en tolerant och allsidig undervisning. Den kunskap som finns att hämta i läromedel bör därmed också följa samma linje. I denna studie undersöks läromedlens innehåll inom religionsämnet, riktade till gymnasiet, med en avgränsning till hinduism. Fokus riktas mot huruvida beskrivningarna är värderande eller allsidiga. Detta innehåll ställs också i jämförelse med läroplaners riktlinjer för skolans verksamhet.

    Med hjälp av en diskursanalytisk utgångspunkt har resultatet visat att de undersökta läromedlen över tid har förändrats till innehållet. Beskrivningar med fokus på jämförelser mellan hinduism och ”vi i västerlandet” har övergått till att fler paralleller istället dras globalt där läromedelsförfattarna försöker hitta likheter. Dessa förändringar har också visat på att läroplanerna tagits i beaktande av läromedelsförfattarna vilket har resulterat i att innehållet i läromedlen över tid hamnat alltmer i linje med läroplanerna.

    Utifrån dessa resultat dras slutsatsen att lärare behöver vara medvetna om att läromedel inte alltid visar en allsidig version av de kunskaper som finns. Med denna insikt kan läraren utveckla sin undervisning genom att visa på fler perspektiv och på så vis också utveckla sina elevers kunskaper och vyer.

    Kommunikativt samspel inom social interaktion elev och lärare emellan2009Independent thesis Advanced level (professional degree), 15 credits / 22,5 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    I denna uppsats berörs ämnet kommunikativt samspel mellan lärare och elev under dramalektioner, där intresset ligger i att se hur dessa personer uppfattar varandra utifrån det som den andre personen har sagt. Kommunikation är något som sker oavbrutet hela tiden både genom ord och kroppsspråk mellan olika individer. Alla har vi våra olika förutsättningar för att ge uttryck av oss själva, och därför kan det ibland vara svårt att veta att det som jag har sagt verkligen når ut som jag vill att det skall nås ut. Detta är en kvalitativ intervjustudie där fokus på det kommunikativa samspelet ligger och vad det sen kan få för konsekvenser när man inte når ut med sitt budskap till mottagaren.

    Distributed Remembering Through Active Structuring of Activities and Environments2013In: Review of Philosophy and Psychology, ISSN 1878-5158, E-ISSN 1878-5166, Vol. 4, no 1, p. 153-165Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper, we consider a few actual cases of mnemonic strategies among older subjects (older than 65). The cases are taken from an ethnographic study, examining how elderly adults cope with cognitive decline. We believe that these cases illustrate that the process of remembering in many cases involve a complex distributed web of processes involving both internal or intracranial and external sources. Our cases illustrate that the nature of distributed remembering is shaped by and subordinated to the dynamic characteristics of the on-going activity and to our minds suggest that research on memory and distributed cognition should focus on the process of remembering through detailed descriptions and analysis of naturally occurring situations.

    Two ways of grounding the discussion on extended cognition2011In: Expanding the Space of Cognitive Science: Proceedings of the 33rd Annual Meeting of theCognitive Science Society / [ed] Laura Carlson, Christoph Hoelscher, Thomas F. Shipley, Cognitive Science Society, Inc., 2011, p. 2347-2352Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    We question two of the basic foundations of the Extended Mind hypothesis originally formulated by Clark and Chalmers, i.e. that all cognition is organism centered and that the important theoretical issues that the debate surrounding the Extended Mind hypothesis can fruitfully be resolved by to a large extent rely on invented examples of cognitive activities as the empirical foundation. We suggest that one way to proceed is to frame the hypothesis within the larger theoretical framework of activity theory, and another is to conduct extensive field studies of extended cognitive processes. We illustrate our position with examples of how these can be used to reformulate some of the aspects of the Extended Mind hypothesis.

    Utomhuspedagogikens kunskapskälla. Närmiljö blir lärmiljö.2007Collection (editor) (Other academic)
    Abstract [sv]

    Boken presenterar och beskriver de rika möjligheter till lärande som finns i den ömsesidiga relationen mellan oss människor och de miljöer och landskap vi lever i. Författarna är samtliga besjälade av tron på att ett rikt och harmoniskt förhållande till landskapet starkt bidrar till vårt fysiska och psykiska välbefinnande. Bokens centrala teman, som bygger på estetik och känsla, är kopplingen mellan bl.a.- rumslig tillhörighet och ekologisk medvetenhet- sinnlig erfarenhet och boklig bildning- barns lekytor och motorisk utveckling- språk och landskap. I boken pläderar författarna för att det finns betydande vinster för lärande, både inom och utanför utbildningssystemet, om barn och unga tillbringar mer tid ute i landskapet. Slutsatsen är att den samhörighet med landskapet som utgör grunden för ett medvetet ekologiskt handlande, skapas genom en djup förtrogenhet med vår omgivning.

    Är NO ute?: En undersökning bland elever i grundskolans år sju om Utomhuspedagogik kan vara en bro mellan NO ämnet och elevens NO-intresse?2007Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Magister), 10 points / 15 hpStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    What part does outdoor education play in the compulsory school in Sweden, more specifically in school year 7? Can outdoor education be a tool/a process to get the pupils more interested in the natural sciences the way it is taught in school, as national and international studies show that this interest decrease with increasing grade in school, and this also applies to the knowledge. I investigate in more detail what part activities of problem solving, the availability of free choice for the pupils and the kind of the environment plays in determining the pupils- interest in the natural sciences. The study is based on literature study, observations and interviews, where hermeneutics - interpretation - fenomenografics - comparison of the different perspectives and views of the persons in the study - and empirical techniques - experiences made in the observations and during the interviews - are important parts in the study. The study shows that the pupils seems to have a craving for outdoor education while they see advantages with it, for example the possibility to get fresh air, the ability to move around more than the space in the classroom allow but utmost that it means a way to concretise, to tie school stuff to a reality that the pupils know about outside school. During outdoor education the pupils want tasks to do, assignments, which give them a chance to investigate, explore and to discover, not foremost that the teacher lectures. The study also shows that the pupils prefer to take an active part during the lesson, at least during part of it, and in decisions that applies to them. Three issues make the pupils interested: when they get to experience something new and a bit unexpected, when questions pop up in their head they want answers to and when they are put into action with some practical work. A great, massive obstacle to outdoor education, the pupils say is bad weather. The study also shows that there is a need among the pupils for socializing. The critiques that exist against outdoor education, primarily comes from active educationalists, and I try to meet this critique in a constructive way.

    Grounds for Group-Differentiated Citizenship Rights: The Case of Ethiopian Ethnic Federalism2009Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (One Year)), 20 credits / 30 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

     

    The universal citizenship rights can not protect the interests of national minorities by systematically excluding them from social, economic and political life. It does this by denying national minorities access to their own societal cultures-a choice enabling background conditions. In order to enable meaningful choice, such cultures needs to be developing. The societal cultures of national minorities will, instead of being a living and developing ones, be condemned to an ever-increasing marginalization if the state follows a hands off approach to ethnicity. Thus the state must give a positive support to national minorities to help them develop their cultures in their own homeland. This can be done by drawing the boundary of the state in such a way that the ethnic minority can constitute a local majority to form a nation, and thus can be entitled to group-differentiated citizenship rights. This inevitably creates mutual-indifference among various nations, and seems to threaten the territorial integrity of the state. But as far as the multinational federation is the result of voluntary union of nations, though the social tie among these nations is weaker than the one found in a nation-state, it can nonetheless be enduring.

    Capabilities and Civil Disobedience: A comparative analysis of The Capability Approach2015Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (One Year)), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    This essay investigates whether Amartya Sen’s or Martha Nussbaum’s version of the capability approach is better suited to justify civil disobedience. The theoretical framework of my study is critical discourse analysis. This aims to establish the most significant conditions for the justification of civil disobedience. An interpretation of the conception of civil disobedience is presented. The investigation assumes that civil disobedience is justified when people advocate for a change in a policy or a law that limits the securing of basic capabilities. A major part of the essay is devoted to clarifying how the idea of basic capabilities relates to civil disobedience. I also emphasize the importance of human dignity as a universal value. I argue that this value is crucial to realizing why some capabilities are more basic than others. I show that Nussbaum is in a better position than Sen to explain when civil disobedience can be justified. This is because Sen lacks a framework of basic capabilities leaving it up to each nation to assess which capabilities ought to be secured.

    Presentationen av dopet i konfirmandarbetet: Konfirmandböckers samstämmighet med Svenska kyrkans bekännelseskrifter2015Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    I uppsatsen undersöks Svenska kyrkans bekännelseskrifter samt tio konfirmandböcker som är utgivna mellan åren 1942 och 2007. Syftet med uppsatsen är att, med utgångspunkt i Svenska kyrkans bekännelseskrifter, undersöka hur material som under modern tid varit och är vanligt förekommande i Svenska kyrkans konfirmandarbete presenterar dopet, dvs. vad som sägs och hur det sägs, samt om och i så fall hur detta material återspeglar bekännelseskrifternas presentation av dopet.

    Uppsatsen behandlar frågorna om hur dopet presenteras i bekännelseskrifterna respektive konfirmandböckerna, om det finns samstämmighet mellan dessa samt om det går att se någon förändring i samstämmigheten över tid. Konfirmandböcker jämförs dels gentemot bekännelseskrifterna och dels gentemot varandra.

    Undersökningen visar att det finns en spännvidd i de konfirmandmaterial som undersökts och den kan ses som ett uttryck för varje tids försök att svara på frågan hur kyrkan gör sitt budskap relevant för tidens konfirmander. Undersökningen visar även att bekännelseskrifternas funktion som något som varje tids teologiska reflektion kan ta avstamp i är tydlig. Detta kan ses i att alla konfirmandböcker har samstämmighet med bekännelseskrifterna, även om det är mindre samstämmighet i de senare konfirmandböckerna. Det finns även pedagogiska riktningar som har betydelse för hur dopet presenteras i de olika böckerna.

    Samstämmigheten med bekännelseskrifterna återfinns i alla konfirmandböcker, men har minskat under undersökningsperioden. De tidiga böckerna i undersökningen har en mer utförlig och tydlig presentation av dopet och större samstämmighet med bekännelseskrifterna. De senare böckerna har en mer otydlig presentation och mindre samstämmighet med bekännelseskrifterna, exempelvis gällande liknelser och dopets gåvor. Innehållsmässigt kan sägas att dopet har gått från att vara något som den döpte ska leva i och som påverkar hennes vardagsliv till en välkomsthälsning in till Guds familj och denna utveckling stämmer inte samman med bekännelseskrifternas presentation av dopet. Tilltalet har gått från att vara sakligt och undervisande till mer inkluderande och uppmuntrande.

    När skor blev till hantverk: En studie om skobranschen ur de verksammas ögon2014Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 180 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Syftet med studien har varit att studera hur personer verksamma inom olika områden i skobranschen upplever verksamhetsområdet samt på vilket sätt de ser på handgjorda och fabrikstillverkade skor.

    Utifrån syftet valdes tre frågeställningar ut: Vad anser de verksamma att det krävs för att ett par skor ska klassas som handgjorda respektive fabrikstillverkade? Hur upplever de hantverket i sig? Vad är de verksammas uppfattningar om den svenska skobranschens förändring?

    Metoden som användes var en kvalitativ studie med en semi-strukturerad intervju som metod. Metoden gjorde det möjligt att samla in material i informanternas naturliga miljö för att sedan tolka och bearbeta dem. På grund av arbetets omfång så gjordes det ett urval som resulterade i totalt sex informanter, tre som arbetade med handgjorda skor och tre som arbetade med fabrikstillverkade. Till hjälp användes en intervjuguide med nio huvudfrågor men utifrån dem fick informanterna tala fritt med öppna svarsalternativ.

    I analysen presenteras informanternas svar i tre olika teman, handgjorda respektive fabrikstillverkade skor, hantverket och importen samt skobranschens förändring och framtid. Svaren presenteras i form av blockcitat följt av mina tolkningar och i slutet på varje tema en sammanfattning. Analysen visar att informanterna anser att begreppet handgjorda skor enbart får användas när en maskin brukats och vid användning av flera bör skorna klassas som fabrikstillverkade. När det kommer till hantverket ser samtliga informanter sig själva som hantverkare även om den ena yrkesgruppen anses vara det lite mer än den andra. I det sista temat framkommer skilda åsikter om huruvida skoindustrins förändring är positiv eller negativ.

    I diskussionen resonerar jag kring mitt val av syfte och frågeställningar, mitt metodval samt tolkar och jämför informanternas svar med bakgrund- och teori avsnitten.

    Avslutningsvis presenteras vidare forskning följt av ett par avslutande ord gällande hela studien.

    Defence of a Principle of International Corrective Justice2019Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (Two Years)), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    This thesis argues that Rawlsian Law of Peoples would benefit from the addition of a principle of corrective justice aimed at repairing past wrongdoings such as colonialism and violations of human rights. The argumentation is conducted exclusively within the Rawlsian theoretical framework. The proposed principle establishes the remedial responsibility of perpetrators of violations of human rights towards their victims. Perpetrators owe their victims apologies and economic redistribution. The principle is defended with, first, the tool of the second original position and the test of the strains of commitment, then by pointing at the value Rawls attributes to the notion of equality of peoples. The second original position is modified for what concerns the awareness of the parties of the historical moment the society of peoples take place. This modification of the veil of ignorance is aimed at securing that probabilities do not affect the deliberation on principles of justice. Indeed, complete uncertainty is maintained to be a crucial condition for the validity of the maximin criterion. In further research, this principle could be proven capable of enabling Rawlsian theory to meet some of the cosmopolitan demands.

    Collaborating with Gertrude Stein: Media ecologies, reception, poetics2018Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    The reception of the American avant-garde poet, playwright, art collector and salon hostess Gertrude Stein (1874-1946) has to a wide extent taken place in an aesthetic context prior to her work’s academic and hermeneutic canonization. This thesis is in part a mapping of this transmedia reception as it is played out in a North American context in the period from her death and until today, and in part an account of Stein’s particular collaborative poetics, through which her work invites such a reception. Furthermore, the thesis maintains that we in a contemporary context are experien­cing a still increasing receptivity towards Stein’s oeuvre, that seems more relevant today than ever before.  

    These circumstances, the thesis illuminates and discusses via a media theoretical framework, where Stein’s own work, as well as its aesthetic reception is considered as embedded in a complex media ecology. Media ecology is here conceived as a de­centralized, networked approach to aesthetic phenomena, which is able to contain many types of agents and materialities. The media ecology of an artwork is thus po­tentially made up by the entire network of processes, agents and materials that are relevant to its production, distribution and consumption and influences the subject positions available to the individual agents.

    Through Stein’s aesthetic reception it is possible to catch sight of important compo­nents that are active in the media ecology but often neglected or considered subor­dinated to text-internal features. These include the material interface of the medium in question, the aestheticized persona of the artist and infrastructures such as the salon, which affect how and to whom the work and its meanings are distributed. The thesis also traces a number of parallels between the media situation of Stein in the beginning of the 20th century and the digital media situation at the verge of the 21st that suggest both explanations for and implications of her increasing contemporary relevance.
