Backman, Erik; Svensson, Daniel – Sport, Education and Society, 2023
Environmental sustainability in sport is an increasingly important issue. In this paper, we want to highlight a specific phenomenon, namely artificially constructed landscapes and the outdoor sport activities that take place therein.

Ali Osman; Anna Lund; Stefan Lund – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2025
The present paper delves into how symbolic boundaries in a school that is undergoing a desegregation process come to shape social boundaries of 'we-ness' and 'otherness'. The theoretical framework of the study starts from an interest in analysing whether symbolic and social boundaries emerge in new encounters during a desegregation process and…

Jensen, I.; Bjorklund, C.; Hagberg, J.; Aboagye, E.; Bodin, L. – Studies in Higher Education, 2021
Theories of what determines research performance have evolved from political and economic science, amongst other disciplines. Contemporary research shows that universities have a problematic work environment characterized by bullying, insecure jobs, and dysfunctional leadership. In this study, we explore the relationship between the psycho-social…

In this article, we use data from ethnography-inspired studies of eight Swedish schools.

There is an increased focus on individuality in the everyday working lives of teachers,…

Ivarsson, Jenny – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2019
In this forum article, I reflect on the findings by Eva Silfver in "Gender performance in an out of school science context." Silfver has studied a class of 14-15-year-old students during a visit to a science center. The students are supposed to write a computer program that will steer a Lego car. In their activities, Silfver identifies…

Silfver, Eva – Cultural Studies of Science Education, 2019
This article examines how school students perform gender during a visit to a science centre where they programme Lego cars. The focus is on how students relate to each other--how they talk and what they do. Theoretically, the article draws on the 'heterosexual matrix' and a Foucauldian understanding of how power and knowledge are tightly…

Nyberg, Gunn; Barker, Dean; Larsson, Håkan – Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy, 2020
Background: Research on physical education (PE) shows a prevalence of narrow and reductionist views on what counts as ability. These views tend to privilege certain students and marginalize others, and often equate ability with technique-based sport performance. A lot of research is still directed towards the above problem. However, very few have…

This article provides explanations for how it is possible that teachers marked by performative rationality also hold and enact seemingly humanistic professional values. The study points to three interplay mechanisms…
