Understanding Temporal Governance in Activation
Swedish municipalities have assumed an increasingly vital role in labor market inclusion, particularly for individuals distant from employment. This article examines how municipal labor market units (MLMUs) enact activation policies through a temporal lens. From a mediated discourse analysis perspective, the study explores how frontline staff manage, negotiate, and resist temporal aspects embedded in national active labor market policies. Based …
Young adults’ perceptions of information on social distancing measures and everyday life during the Covid-19 pandemic in Denmark and Sweden
With the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Denmark and Sweden's governments and health authorities implemented social distancing measures as the main strategy to limit the spread of the coronavirus. In Denmark, these were mostly mandatory, whereas in Sweden they were primarily voluntarily based. The aim of this study was to explore how young adults in Denmark and Sweden retrieved and perceived information during the COVID-19 pandemic and what th…
Acceptability of restrictions in the Covid-19 pandemic
Introduction: Denmark and Sweden initially adopted different responses to the COVID-19 pandemic although the two countries share many characteristics. Denmark responded swiftly with many mandatory restrictions. In contrast, Sweden relied on voluntary restrictions and a more "relaxed" response during the first wave of the pandemic. However, increased rates of COVID-19 cases led to a new approach that involved many more mandatory restrictions, thus…

Practising empty talk
This article draws on theories of normative control and critical management studies to investigate caseworkers’ strategies in correspondence to a new leadership philosophy in the Swedish Public Employment Service called self-leadership. Based on 43 interviews and observations at two local offices, we find that managerial models are arbitrary and cause uncertainty at the local level as caseworkers both comply and resist managerial talk of self-lea…
Social Distancing Policies in the Coronavirus Battle
Social distancing measures have been a key component in government strategies to mitigate COVID-19 globally. Based on official documents, this study aimed to identify, compare and analyse public social distancing policy measures adopted in Denmark and Sweden regarding the coronavirus from 1 March 2020 until 1 October 2020. A key difference was the greater emphasis on laws and executive orders (sticks) in Denmark, which allowed the country to adop…
Organizational governance of activation policy
The Swedish Social Insurance Agency ( Försäkringskassan – SSIA) and its frontline staff have a key role in the implementation of activation policy. Drawing on ethnographic research conducted at local offices, this article investigates how the transparency ideal, as an integral part of the organizational governance of the activation policy, is negotiated and enacted in the everyday life of a welfare bureaucracy. The analysis shows the central role…
