    Confronting stigma: exploring its organizational impact on the work of investigating online child sexual abuse2024In: EUROCRIM2024: book of abstracts, European Society of Criminology , 2024, p. 149-150, article id P014Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    This poster presentation outlines a dissertation project that aims to explore the impacts of stigmatization experienced by investigators working with online child sexual abuse (CSA). In the police organization, investigators are hesitant to engage in such investigations due to potential scrutiny from colleagues, as well as feelings of distance and isolation. Despite the well-acknowledged mental strain associated with this role, the overarching stigma surrounding it has received limited attention. Recognizing the need for additional studies, this thesis seeks to understand the organizational issues that may arise due to stigmatization and its effects in the police organization. Four sub-studies have been outlined: Study 1 aims to provide a contextual understanding of how this crime type is worked with and to identify key challenges encountered by investigators in their work practice. This will be done through document analysis, interviews, and meeting observations. Study 2 aims to explore the investigators’ experiences with stigma, its manifestations, and the strategies they use to navigate it. Data will be collected through semi-structured interviews with 20 investigators specializing in online child sexual abuse and analyzed using thematic analysis. Study 3 offers an insight into the lived experience of one investigator working with online CSA by using oral history, a qualitative method that emphasizes the participants perspective. This is done by doing several in-depth, open-ended interview sessions with one participant, capturing the essence of their professional journey in the stigmatized work. Study 4 aims to answer the question of how these investigators are perceived within the police organization. Here, a survey will be used to investigate to what extent employees within the police organization stigmatize investigators working with online CSA, its prevalence and causes. Ultimately, this research seeks to deepen the understanding of the organizational challenges associated with stigmatized work, offering insights for the enhancement of supportive strategies.

    The investigation of online child sexual abuse cases in Sweden: organizational challenges and the need for collaboration2024In: Nordic Journal of Studies in Policing, E-ISSN 2703-7045, Vol. 11, no 1Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Investigating online child sexual abuse (CSA) crimes is challenging for law enforcement agencies, demanding both digital expertise and knowledge about offences against children while exacting a mental toll on investigators. This article identifies challenges in the investigative process, drawing on audit reports, interviews with police management, observations of meetings, and a workshop with online CSA investigators. The findings reveal difficulties in resource allocation due to varying case sizes and rapid escalation. In addition, while online CSA investigators handle most cases, they require support from other police units; however, a widespread fear of these cases among non-specialized investigators complicates collaborative efforts. Lastly, a culture of organizational “compartmentalization” was described as hindering collaboration, as different branches of investigation remain separated. We discuss how these challenges pose problems to online CSA investigation practices.

    Vanans makt — En analys av förändringsarbetets utmaningar i den svenska idrottsrörelsen2023In: Svensk Förening för Beteende- och Samhällsvetenskaplig Idrottsforskning (SVEBI) årliga Idrottsvetenskapliga konferens: Program, Göteborg: Göteborgs universitet; SVEBI , 2023Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [sv]

    Introduktion: Svensk idrottsrörelse befinner sig mitt i en nationell, regional och lokal organisatorisk förändring i strävan att nå idrottens ambitioner om en mer inkluderande idrottsrörelse, ett beslut som fattades i samband med Riksidrottsmötet 2017 (Svenska Parasportförbundet, 2018). Det finns således en uttalad ambition om att skapa likvärdiga villkor för alla utövare oavsett faktorer som socioekonomisk bakgrund, funktionsnedsättning, ambitionsnivå, kön och etnicitet. Förändringen innebär att ansvaret för de idrotter som tidigare administrerats av Svenska Parasportförbundet ska överföras till mottagande specialidrottsförbund. Nordlund et al. (2022) kartlade förväntningarna bland verksamma inom Parasportförbundet kring den pågående organisationsförändringen och drog slutsatsen att den stora utmaningen handlar om den kritiska övergången från policy till praktik, det vill säga hur inkludering kan realiseras och upprätthållas i praktiken. Därtill konstaterar Andersson och Karp (2022) i sin studie om Svenska Innebandyförbundets beredskap att hantera organisationsförändringen att det råder oklarheter kring resursfördelningen.

    Syfte: Föreliggande studie syftar till att undersöka möjliggörande och begränsande strukturer kopplade till organisationsförändringen samt att bidra med kunskap om hur idrottspolitiska beslut tolkas och omsätts i ett konkret förändringsarbete. Studien ingår i forskningsprojektet’’ Likvärdiga villkor i Sveriges största folkrörelse – framgångsfaktorer för ökad inkludering inom idrottsområdet’’ finansierad av Forskningsrådet för hälsa, arbetsliv och välfärd (FORTE).

    Teori och metod: För att fånga den meningsbärande logiken för idrotten genomfördes och analyseras semistrukturerade intervjuer med totalt åtta aktörer verksamma i nyckelpositioner inom Riksidrottsförbundet och Svenska Parasportförbundet. För att analysera inkluderingsprocessen som organisationsförändring användes ramfaktorteori (Nilsson, 1988).

    Resultat och diskussion: Resultatet visar att informanterna generellt är positiva till förändringen men att det saknas strategier för hur idrottspraktiken konkret ska utvecklas i den riktning som är avsedd. Trots positiva värderingar kring inkluderingsprocessen förs således en argumentation som är abstrakt. Detta kan tolkas som ett passivt förhållningssätt till förändring och en acceptans för att bevara idrottens kärnverksamheter som de är.
