Överläggningar om hållbar utveckling : En studie av studiecirkelsamtal / Deliberations on Sustainable Development : A Study of Study Circle ConversationLundberg, Martin January 2008 (has links)
Studiecirkeln är en pedagogisk praktik som tillskrivs en roll i den svenska demokratin. Studiecirkelns genomförande svarar väl mot en demokratisk praktik som framställs i deliberativ demokratiteori. Avhandlingens idé är att belysa deliberativ demokratiteori med empiri. Med studier av studiecirkelsamtal ges möjlighet att diskutera teorin med samtalsdata. Samtalsdata genererades genom analyser av ett videoinspelat cirkelsamtal som handlade om hållbar utveckling. Studiens teoretiska ram visar fyra olika bidraga till den deliberativa demokratiteorin. Dessa presenteras i en indelning som skiljer mellan något som i avhandlingen kallas för den rationella argumentationens överläggning och en retoriskt orienterade överläggning. Genom denna indelning ges fler möjligheter att tolka fenomen i samtalsempirin och vice versa. Beträffade åsiktsbildningen i studiecirkelsamtalet finner man att cirkeldeltagarna berör en mängd olika företeelser. I detta urskiljs deltagares egna åsikter samt föreställningar som är producerade i normativa sfärer. Samtalsprocessen kännetecknas att den varierar från en period till en annan. Det gör att tillgängligheten för deltagare att kunna bidra med och ta del av yttranden varierar. Resultaten reser frågor till teorin om tolkningen av vissa begrepp. / In Sweden study circles are viewed as a vital part of the democracy due to the opportunity of the participants to deliberate. The way that the study circles work corresponds well with the notion of democratic deliberations promoted in theories of deliberative democracy. The main idea with this thesis is to elucidate the theory of deliberative democracy with empirical data from deliberations in a study circle. There are several contributions to the theory of deliberative democracy. In the thesis a distinction is made between theories that focus on the rational argument and theories that accept rhetorical speech as complement to the rational argument. In short the results show that the study circle conversation in one sense qualifies as a democratic deliberation. The participants are free to argue and allowed to have different views. When it comes to the contents of the conversation two systems of categories illustrate their formation of views. One categorisation illustrates that the participants use a wide range of opinions. The second categorisation stresses that the views of the participants were influenced by different sources. The analysis of the conversation shows a complex pattern of communication that differs from one period to another. This raises questions on how concepts used in the theories will be understood and interpreted in the light of empirical data.

Vad är inspiration och hur fungerar den? : En granskning av amatörskapares relationer till inspiration / What is inspiration and how does it work? : A study of creative amateurs' relations to inspirationThorén, Filip, Olsson-Hovstadius, Olof January 2022 (has links)
What does inspiration mean to creative amateurs? Inspiration as a concept has been hard to define in information science terms. Several theories of information-seeking behavior have also been proposed to be applicable to inspiration-seeking, but have not seen empirical testing. While previous researchers on inspiration have mostly focused on artists and designers, this essay has studied amateurs and makers engaged in creative hobbies. Based on a survey distributed to study circles organized under Swedish adult educational associations, the grounded theory analysis indicated that inspiration is important as a feeling of motivation, joy, well-being and productivity, a source of ideas, and a driving force in the creative process. The results of the survey also showed that more passive information-seeking strategies, such as serendipitous encounters, browsing, and social interaction, were more commonly associated with finding inspiration than active strategies, such as systematic searches and question-based seeking, within the group. The responses showed that the respondents’ perceptions of inspiration were somewhat idiosyncratic, and future research based on individual or focus group interviews would be needed to explore the more ambiguous concepts and answers gleaned in this study. This is a two years master's thesis in Library and information science.
