What We Don't Speak of
Sweden Finns are one of the five officially recognized national minority groups in Sweden. Approximately 3.6 percent of the total Swedish population are either born in Finland or have at least one Finnish-born parent; however, since Swedish national minority legislation explicitly applies a self-identification principle rather than objective criteria in determining who belongs to a national minority group, this figure might not correspond to the …
Mental Health Among Sweden Finns
Sweden Finns are one of five officially recognized national minority groups in Sweden. As a group, Sweden Finns have been socioeconomically underprivileged in comparison with the Swedish majority population, and tend to be worse off in terms of somatic health. However, the literature on mental health among Sweden Finns has not previously been systematically appraised. The aim of this scoping review was to synthesize the available evidence on ment…
Bones of the Earth
From excavation results of a pre-Roman Iron Age and Viking Age burialgroundin Västergötland, an example is presented ofhow religious meaning became projected into Viking Age burial ritual through imitation of an already then ancient custom. The burial-ground was abandoned for a period of at least 600 hundred years in between the two periods. In the Pre-Roman Iron Age and Viking Age graves the custom of depositing flakes of firecracked natural sto…
Lean production, nyliberalism och ny kapitalism
This article focuses on late modern discursive clashes and contradictions in everyday situations at Flextronics, mainly from the workplace in Karlskrona in southern Sweden. Flextronics is supplier of electronic components to companies like Ericsson and Siemens. This is a market crisscrossed by discourses anchored in two different types of capitalist production systems, which Richard Sennett has described as social capitalism and flexible capitali…
Everyday resistance in psychiatry through harbouring strategies
The purpose of this article is to study emotion management by focusing on emotion labour in relation to organisational resistance in psychiatry. Drawing on focus group interviews and individual interviews with 11 therapists in psychiatry, and on theories of emotion management and harbouring work (i.e. managing emotion work and renewing energy in a team), we argue that individual workers in psychiatry have to create strategies on their own. The ma…
Northern European space making in the era of neoliberal Europeanization and the emerging solidarity among Baltic Sea workers
This article will explore the prospects of and obstacles to the development of a transnational workers' solidarity movement in the Baltic Sea region in order to meet the challenges posed by transnational capital. The question is examined through a situational analysis of events taking place during a few hours at the Hotel Hafen in Hamburg on 10 November 2010. The subject of the analysis, which is based on personal observation and sound recordings…
Klasskamrater revisited
My thesis Classmates was published 1987 and was a late contribution to a theory/political debate that was about to lose its place in the academy. When the Wall fell in 1989, and the neoliberal transformation of Eastern Europe gained momentum, the terms “class” and “class struggle” became obsolete in a world that celebrated the victory of the market economy. However, as many researchers have pointed out, class remains very much a reality. Class sh…
Colonizing Latvia? A Piece of Swedishness in the Forests of Talsi
This article investigates the ways in which Latvian sawmill workers understand the effects of global capitalism in postsocialist Latvia, here represented by the establishment of a Swedish industry in the forest-rich region of Talsi. Technology, organization, language, culture, as well as “masters”, are imported specially from Sweden, and all are deemed necessary in order to make the plant competitive. The article is concluded with a discussion of…
Kulturbegreppet och diskursanalysen
About three decades ago it was commonplace within cultural research to define culture in terms of order. In the wake of theoretical and ideological influences of post structuralism and neo-liberalism, this definition became increasingly contested, and became regarded as problematic, as it was argued not to meet the needs of contemporary dominant debates concerning individual differences, mobility and instability. Attempts to adapt the theorizatio…
I går var vi slösare — i dag är vi sparare
This article is part of an ongoing research programme on The Culture of Late Capitalism in Sweden. A major aim is to study the shift from modernity to postmodernity by cultural analysis of the discourse practices of the market economy. My study shows that a new kind of narrative and how and where economic values are created seems to be shaped under the influence of financial capitalistic dominance. Modern industrial capitalism involved in the pro…
