Understanding implementation gaps in honour-related violence & oppression policy : A case study exploring the promises and pitfalls faced by teachers when implementing policy in a Swedish school environmentThalin, Julia January 2021 (has links)
Honour-related violence and oppression has been politically prioritised in Sweden during the past two decades. National policies have been formulated, laws adopted, and the school has been identified as a crucial actor for preventing this type of violence at the local level. Yet, the prevalence of the violence still constitutes a threat to the freedom and safety of children and youths in the Swedish society. To gain a deeper understanding about the apparent discrepancy between policy and practice, this study adopts a micro-level perspective and zooms in onto the actors responsible for implementing existing policies. Teachers from four different purposefully selected schools have been interviewed. Drawing on insights from street-level policy implementation theories, the study explores how the teachers work to implement the National Agency for Education’s policy targeting honour-related violence and oppression. Notably, Lipsky’s analytical categories for successful street-level policy implementation, comprehension, capacity and will, function as point of departure. The broad nature of the categories have allowed for contextual insights to be included and a number of constraining and enabling mechanisms for successful micro-level policy implementation to be identified. The findings demonstrate how the teachers’ access to information is contingent upon their personal interest in the topic or on other individuals’ commitment. The large room for manoeuvre permits teachers to use their creativity to include the perspective of honour, but likewise allows for misunderstandings and resistance to influence the policy outcomes. The lack of clear bureaucratic goals, limited resources and a high level of discretion force teachers to find their own strategies to adequately implement the policy. To deal with increased pressure they are however likely to resort to simplifications and familiar routines. In turn these may obstruct at-risk students from receiving appropriate support. Finally, the findings confirm the importance of taking the strategies, decisions and motivations of implementing actors seriously when trying to understand policy success or policy failure.

“How can we ensure that they get support?”: A qualitative study of professionals' experiences of cooperation and support for girls and young women exposed to honour-related oppressionVornanen, Juulia January 2021 (has links)
In Sweden, honour-related oppression has received more attention in recent years at the political and academic level but also in social work. Honour-related problems are largely in conflict with the rights and freedoms of children and women, and attempts have been made to alleviate the issue. The purpose of this master thesis is to examine the professionals’ experiences of the challenges of cooperation, support and personal treatment of girls and young women who are exposed to honour-related oppression. The professionals mainly represent the social services and other actors who work with honour-related problems, such ashealth care personnel. Based on a qualitative approach using focus group and individual interviews, the results illustrate the importance of cooperation and knowledge when working with girls and young women who are exposed to honour-related oppression. The study illustrates challenges for cooperation, such as professional confidentiality, and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the professional’s work with the matter. Honour-related oppression can be described as a challenging problem that still needs further recognition in society. The study can contribute to the work of social services and other actors by presenting challenges and opportunities for the work with honour-related oppression

New Alternative Masculinities among Iranian Young Men : A Case Study of a Campaign on Social MediaDarvishpour(Bagherishad), Zahra January 2021 (has links)
The current study has been analysing and discussing the rise of alternative masculinities among the younger generation of Iranian men, with the focus on the protest action of part of Iranian social media users to Romina’s honour killing as a case study. This interpretative research was conducted using thematic analysis within a perspective of intersectionality, and the case study in this research is built upon analysing material of the against honour related campaign following the hashtags #NoBelieveInHonour, # IOwnNoNamus and #ManWithoutNamus on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter. The study argues how young Iranian men are taking initiative to combat violence against women and achieve gender equality. The result demonstrated that among the generation of young, educated and secular men who are against the Islamic Republic in Iran and are more familiar with the values of modernity and gender equality under the influence of globalization and digital media, alternative masculinities have emerged in a small section of society. Reacting against the concepts of namus is one of the most difficult and controversial areas for men in traditional societies, as they feel that their masculine authority is being further questioned by criticizing and tarnishing the culture of honour and sexual restrictions. Therefore, the fact that men are willing to radically critique the concept of namus in this way can be a hope that feminist values have developed among these men.

Att definiera och arbeta med våld inom en hederskontext : En studie om socialtjänstens arbeteAlsanouri, Desirée, Larsson, Sheila January 2024 (has links)
Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck utgör ett allvarligt samhällsproblem som kräver brådskande åtgärder, och socialtjänsten har en central roll i detta arbete. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur socialtjänsten arbetar med hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck i Sverige, med fokus på uppfattningar och tillvägagångssätt. Studien syftade även till att identifiera behov av förändringar i det aktuella arbetet. Ur detta avseende ansågs en kvalitativ studie med fenomenologisk-hermeneutisk ansats och ett deduktivt synsätt lämpligast, varpå semistrukturerade intervjuer med socialtjänstarbetare genomfördes. En analys utfördes utifrån ett intersektionellt teoretiskt ramverk för att ge en djupare förståelse för våldet. Resultaten belyser det kollektiva inslaget i våldet, där flera förövare bidrar till komplexiteten och utmaningarna för socialtjänsten. Förebyggande åtgärder och integration identifierades som nödvändiga inslag i arbetet mot hedersrelaterat våld. Det finns komplexa faktorer att ta hänsyn till, men om det får fortgå riskerar många kvinnor att fortsätta leva under förtryck. / Honour-related violence and oppression constitute a serious societal issue requiring urgent action, with social services playing a central role in this endeavor. The purpose of this study was to investigate how social services work with honour-related violence and oppression in Sweden, focusing on perceptions and approaches. The study also aimed to identify needs for changes in current practices. A qualitative study with a phenomenological-hermeneutic approach and a deductive perspective was deemed most appropriate, leading to semi-structured interviews with social workers. An analysis was conducted from an intersectional theoretical framework to provide a deeper understanding of the violence. The results highlight the collective nature of the violence, where multiple perpetrators contribute to the complexity and challenges for social services. Preventive measures and integration were identified as necessary components in combating honour-related violence. There are complex factors to consider, but if left unchecked, many women risks continuing to live under oppression.

”Det finns ju inget svårare än att behöva bryta upp med hela sin familj” : En intervjustudie om hur socialtjänsten och skyddade boenden han- terar ärenden som innefattar hedersrelaterat våld och förtryckAllared, Jenny, Wirén, Maria January 2019 (has links)
Syftet med denna studie är att få en fördjupad förståelse för hur socialarbetare inom social- tjänsten och på skyddat boende arbetar med ärenden som innefattar hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck. Följande frågeställningar preciseras; Vilka dilemman beskriver socialarbetare inom socialtjänsten och på skyddat boende finns i arbetet för att stödja hedersutsatta kvinnor? Hur kan arbetet med hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck förstås i relation till en kritisk praktik? Stu- dien baseras på en kvalitativ ansats i form av intervjuer med totalt sex stycken socialarbetare verksamma inom socialtjänst och på skyddat boende med kvinnor utsatta för hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck. Studiens resultat visar att hedersvåld och förtryck är ett komplext arbetsom- råde, där det kan ses som en utmaning för socialtjänsten och skyddade boenden att bedöma vart en kvinna kan bosätta sig för att vara säker. Arbetet riskerar dock att skapa stereotypa föreställningar som kan leda till att minoritetsgrupper stigmatiseras. Samtliga respondenter lyfte att beslutet att lämna sin familj som hedersutsatt kvinna är ett svårt beslut som i många fall leder till att kvinnan går tillbaka till sitt gamla liv. När en våldsutsatt kvinna har lämnat sin familj kan det leda till en känsla av isolering och ensamhet. Samtliga respondenter betonade att en stor del av arbetet består i att stärka kvinnans egna resurser och att arbeta för ett själv- ständigt liv. Mot bakgrund av den tidigare forskningen som betonar vikten av samverkan mel- lan aktörer fanns även en enighet hos samtliga respondenter att en samverkan mellan olika aktörer är nödvändig för att i det akuta skedet kunna ge skydd åt kvinnan, men även på längre sikt kunna upprätthålla kvinnans skydd. / The purpose of this study is to gain a deeper understanding how social workers at social ser- vices and sheltered housing work with cases involving honor-related violence and oppression (crimes of honour). The following questions are clarified; What dilemmas do social workers describe at social services and in sheltered housing in the work to support women? How can the work on honor-related violence and oppression be understood in relation to a critical practice? The study is based on qualitative interviews with a total of six social workers active in social services and at sheltered housing with women exposed to honour-related violence and oppression. The study's results showed that honour-related violence and oppression are a com- plex area of work, where it can be seen as a challenge for the social services and sheltered ho- mes to assess where a woman can settle in order to be safe. However, the work risks creating stereotypical ideas that can lead to minority groups being stigmatized. All respondents emphasized that the decision to leave the family for a woman exposed to honour violence is a difficult decision, which can lead a woman to return to her old life. When a woman has left her family, it can lead to a feeling of isolation and loneliness. All respondents emphasized that a big part of the work consists of strengthening the woman's own resources and working towards an independent life. Against the background of the previous research that emphasizes the im- portance of collaboration between authorities, there was also an agreement among all respon- dents that a collaboration between different performers is necessary in order to be able to pro- vide protection for the woman in the acute phase, but also in the longer term be able to maintain the woman's protection.

Kan pojkar och män vara offer för hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck? : En kvalitativ intervjustudie för att undersöka möjliga skillnader på hjälp och insatser beroende på kön / Can boys and men be victims of honour-related violence? : A qualitative study to examine possible differences in social work depending on gender.Olofsson, Jennie, Tran, Linda January 2019 (has links)
Aim: The aim of the study is to examine how professionals works with boys and men with honour-related problems and how they describe their work with the vulnerable group and what kind of differences there are in the help depending on what gender the victim have. Method: Qualitative interview study, the interviews are analyzed with a hermeneutic science theory. Result: The study shows that even though boys and men can be victims of honour-related violence they are rarely noticed as victims. They are mostly seen as the perpetrator. But the study shows that they could have a double role as both a victim and a perpetrator. The image and norms of boys and men only as the perpetrator is an obstacle for them to seek help, but also prevents them from getting the help they need. A consequence of this is that the help are limited for boys and men that are victims of honour-related violence. This can be understood from the social constructions of how society regards the rolls of victims and perpetrators, but also how professionals defines honour-related violence. Conclusion: All of the respondents stresses the need of more knowledge about honour-related violence and especially that boys and men can be victims as well. The possibility to get professional help and support are differnt depending on gender, boys and men have fewer options.

Att se utsatta elever : Tre skolkuratorers perspektiv på hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck / Seeing exposed students : Three school-concelor´s perspectives of honour-related violence and oppressionEriksson, Sofia January 2006 (has links)
<p>Denna studie i socialantropologi är baserad på kvalitativa intervjuer med tre skolkuratorer. Den handlar om deras uppfattningar om och erfarenheter av hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck. Hedersproblematiken har sina rötter i kollektivets dominans över individen, patriarkala mönster och kulturkrock. Skolan har ett stort ansvar att se de utsatta eleverna, men det råder skilda meningar om vilka som utsätts. Vanligtvis ses flickor som offer för fäders och bröders våld i familjerna, men skolkuratorernas erfarenheter visar att alla individer i familjer där hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck existerar tycks i varierande grad vara delaktiga i våldet, och att även pojkarna kan vara offer.</p> / <p>This thesis in Social Anthropology is based on interviews with three school-councelors. It´s about their experiences and perceptions of honour-related violence and oppression. Honour-problemacy has it´s roots in the dominance of the collective over the individual, patriarchal patterns and collision between cultures. The school has a large responsibility to see the exposed students, but there are different opinions on who are the exposed. Normally, girls are seen as the victims of the violence of the father and brothers in their families, but the experiences of school-councelors show that all individuals in families where honour-related violence and oppression exists, seems to be perticipants in the violence, and that the boys also can be the victims.</p>

Hjältar och Offer : Om hedersliv, förtryck och frihet / Heroes and Victims : On honorable living, oppression and freedomEriksson, Sofia January 2006 (has links)
<p>Denna studie i socialantropologi är baserad på kvalitativa intervjuer av fyra unga killar med rötter i hederskulturen. Tre av dem är medlemmar i gruppen Sharaf Hjältar och kämpar aktivt mot hedersförtryck. I studien ingår även en fältstudie av Sharaf Hjältars arbete i form av föreläsningar. Fokus ligger på dessa unga killars personliga erfarenheter från sin uppväxt i familjer präglade av hederskulturen, killarnas arbete som Sharaf hjältar och deras erfarenheter i relation till hur andra har det. Det sistnämnda inbegriper så väl invandrare som svenskar, tjejer som killar och närstående/bekanta som för killarna okända individer. Sharaf Hjältar är en verksamhet under Elektra, som syftar till att förändra killars attityder, då det inte räcker med att enbart hjälpa utsatta flickor. Trots att Elektra har en stereotyp grundsyn där flickor oftast ses som offer och pojkar som förövare, visar killarnas erfarenheter, så väl direkta och indirekta, att även killar utsätts för hedersrelaterat förtryck eller tvingas leva ett hedersrelaterat liv.</p> / <p>This thesis in Social Anthropology is based on interviews with four young men with their roots in the “honour-culture”. Three of them are members of “Sharaf Hjältar” (“Sharaf Heroes”) and are actively fighting honour-related oppression. Included in the study is also a field-study of the work of Sharaf Hjältar, consisting of seminars. The focus are on the personal experiences of the above-mentioned young men, from growing up in families inside the honour-culture, their work in Sharaf Hjältar, and their experiences in relation to their views of other’s. The last mentioned part includes both immigrants and Swedes, male and female, and closely related as well as, for the interviewed young men unknown individuals. Sharaf Hjältar is a sub-organisation to Elektra, that strives to change attitudes among young men, as only supporting exposed girls isn’t enough. Despite Elektra having a stereo-typical basic view where the girls are usually seen as victims, and boys and men as perpetrators, the interviewed young men’s experiences – direct as well as indirect – shows that boys also are exposed to honour-related oppression, or are forced into an honour-based lifestyle.</p>

Hedersrelaterad problematik : Fyra socialarbetares och en politikers syn på ungdomar som utsätts för hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck / Honour-related problems : Four social workers and one politician’s views on youth subject to honour-related violence and oppressionSayed Abdu, Ahlam, Schulze, Emelie January 2011 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to conduct a qualitative study with a case study research design, where we studied social workers and politicians view on honor-related problems of underage girls and boys in the age 13-17. We need knowledge about honor related violence and oppression in the political community and social services to work with honor-related problems. Political decisions affect how social work is developed around the honor problem; therefore, it is also important to highlight this direction for the work. It requires a knowledge complement of honor-related problems not to risk exposing the child to further risk from the family (Hedersförtryck, 2009). This is to live up to, for example the law of Social Services, school law and Human Rights (Hussein & Kinuka-Svedberg, 2010). We conducted semi-structured interviews with two social workers, a social worker at the women's shelter, a women's safety coordinator and a chairman of the Social Welfare Committee in the selected commune. When we analyzed the results, we made a hermeneutic analysis with interpretation from an intersectional perspective based in postmodern feminist theory. The result that we have reached as regards the design of the work with honor-related problem is that it is highly influenced by the decisions of women's safety coordinator and politicians. The respondents mentioned the concepts controlling, limiting young people, married off by the family, and that they have little autonomy. Also the patriarchal family pyramid was raised in the definition and that there may be integration problems as a result of the norm-breaking lifestyle that comes with their own culture. The viewpoints which the respondents had on the honor problem we have seen influence how they wish to work. They said that they wanted to educate and inform the newly arrived adults who immigrate to the country, about Swedish laws and regulations. Social workers said that in time they have learned to apply the youth perspective as much as the family perspective which is more than they did before when they rather applied more of a youth perspective.

Unga mäns perspektiv på heder och hedernormer - en kvalitativ studie / Young men´s perspective concerning honour and honour-norms. A qualitative studyAndersson, Asiye, Mehvar, Mino January 2010 (has links)
The honour norm is strong within the Middle East but is scattered all over the world. As a result of immigration, the honorary context has become more established in Sweden. Violence, committed in the name of honour, is commonly executed by male family members. Thus, young men are forced, in some degree, to participate in the oppression and control of their sisters. Violence exercised in the name of honour, can be traced back to the patriarchal family system in which woman are subordinate to men. The purpose of this study is to highlight the young men's subjective perspective to honour and honour-related violence, as well as if they have managed to distance themselves from it. In the study, interviews are conducted with four young men. The results obtained show that some of the young men have an ambivalent attitude to certain matters relating to honour and what is not acceptable female behaviour. The results reveal that certain parts of the patriarchal thinking are identified in the opinions of some of the young men interviewed. Further, the results also suggest that education and community action are essential for the discussion of honour and the honour norm, in order to create change.
