Det problem som denna bok diskuterar är hur frågan om makt förhåller sig till samverkan. Kan vi spåra makt och maktutövning i samverkansprocesser? Om vi kan det, finns det mönster och förhållanden som är vanligare än andra? Hur kan man förstå en sådan situation? Kan man genom att lyfta fram maktproblematiken förbättra förutsättningarna för en framgångsrik samverkan? Det är dessa och liknande frågor som besvaras i boken. Boken vänder sig till yrkesverksamma personer som i olika roller involveras i samverkan samt till utbildningar inom samhälls- och beteendevetenskap. Berth Danermark är professor i sociologi vid Institutet för handikappvetenskap vid Linköpings och Örebro universitet. Detta är hans tredje bok om samverkan.

Disability and Social Representations Theory provides theoretical and methodological knowledge to uncover the public perception of disabilities. Over the last decade there has been a significant shift from body to environment, and the relation between the two, when understanding the phenomenon of disabilities. The current trend is to view disabilities as the outcome of this interaction; in short from a biopsychosocial perspective. This has called for research based on frameworks that incorporate both the body and the environment. There is a great corpus of knowledge of the functions of a body, and a growing corpus of environmental factors such as perceptions among specific groups of persons towards disabilities. However, there is a lack of knowledge of the perception of disabilities from a general population. This book offers an insight into how we can broaden our understanding of disability by using Social Representations Theory, with specific examples from studies on hearing loss. The authors highlight that attitudes and actions are outcomes of a more fundamental disposition (i.e., social representation) towards a phenomenon like disability.This book is written assuming the reader has no prior knowledge of Social Representations Theory. It will be of interest to all scholars, students and professionals working in the fields of disability studies, health and social care, and sociology.

Interdisciplinarity and Wellbeing
A Critical Realist General Theory of Interdisciplinarity

In this book, the authors provide a much-needed general theory of interdisciplinarity and relate it to health/wellbeing research and professional practice. In so doing they make it possible for practitioners of the different disciplines to communicate without contradiction or compromise, resolving the tensions that beset much interdisciplinary work.Such a general theory is only possible if we assume that there is more to being (ontology) than empirical being (what we can measure directly). Therefore, the unique approach to interdisciplinarity applied in this book starts from ontology, namely that there is a multimechanismicity (a multiplicity of mechanisms) in open systems, and then moves to epistemology. By contrast, the mainstream approach, which fails to acknowledge ontology, is “unserious” and tends to result in a methodological hierarchy, unconducive of interdisciplinarity, in which empiricist science is overtly or tacitly assumed to be the superior version of science.This book is primarily aimed at those people interested in improving health and wellbeing – such as researchers, policy-makers, educators, and general practitioners. However, it will also be useful to academics engaged in the broader academic debate on interdisciplinary metatheory.

Education, Professionalization and Social Representations
On the Transformation of Social Knowledge

This book presents a broad range of research related to how social knowledge is shared, transmitted and transformed in the context of education and professional formation. The chapters of this edited collection reflect different theoretical and empirical approaches to that form of common-sense knowledge called social representations, the theory of which was developed almost a half-century ago by Serge Moscovici. Scholars from various research institutions in Brazil, France and Sweden, spanning a wide variety of disciplines within the social sciences, have contributed chapters that are grouped into three main categories related to education, professionalization and transformation of knowledge. Part I covers theoretical approaches to understanding the transformation of social knowledge from the perspective of social representations. Part II analyzes the impact of the theory of social representations on the transformation of knowledge in the field of education and professional formation. Finally, Part III presents several empirical studies focused on the social and cultural frames that condition the transformation of knowledge. While the book is devoted to education and the emerging field of research on professionalization, it will also appeal to anyone with a general interest in how people acquire their worldviews and how these views influence their actions.

Fully revised, with an updated bibliography and new, relevant illustrative examples based on work inspired by critical realism, this new edition of Explaining Society constitutes an up-to-date resource connecting methodology, theory, and empirical research. Including discussions of more recent scholarship in the field which connects critical realism with interdisciplinary research, this second edition also clarifies concepts – such as retroduction and retrodiction – so as to render them consistent with developments within critical realism, which are covered in a new chapter. An accessible account of the nature of society and social science, together with the methods used to study and explain social phenomena, Explaining Society will appeal to scholars of sociology, philosophy, and the social sciences more broadly.

Hearing loss is a common chronic condition which is often poorly recognized but can have multiple negative impacts, not just on the lives of those directly affected, but also those living with them. People with impaired hearing may begin a long and uncertain journey involving a number of key stages, from emerging awareness and help-seeking, to diagnosis, adjustment, and self-evaluation.Based on a model of person-centered audiological rehabilitation, this book explains why it is important to understand both patients’ own experiences, and those of their communication partners, over time. It focuses particularly on the human dynamics of hearing loss, exploring the broader consequences of hearing loss for the individual, family members, and wider society. In particular the book:gives insight into the patients' and their communication partners’ experiences and perspectives through clear and telling first-hand narrative accounts;examines how people understand their own hearing loss, reflect on their experiences with hearing aids – both positive and negative – and evaluate treatment options;considers the changes needed to conversations in order to include all communication partners, whether with impaired hearing or not; anddiscusses consequences of hearing loss using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF).With its explicit aim to increase awareness of the need to include the patient and close relatives in the process of rehabilitation, this new text makes an important contribution to further improve evidence-based practice in the field of audiological rehabilitation. An ideal text for audiology, ENT, and nursing students of all levels.

Under 2000-talet har det skett en markant förändring i synen på socialt arbete. Det är idag en självklarhet för socialarbetare att utgå från vetenskap och beprövad erfarenhet. Men vad är egentligen tillförlitlig och relevant kunskap inom detta fält och hur ska man förhålla sig till kunskapsbegreppet?I denna uppdaterade och omarbetade utgåva får läsaren reflektera över olika typer av kunskap: den akademiska, den som produceras i det direkta klientarbetet och den som skapas i forskningsmiljöer ute på verksamhetsfältet. Författarna diskuterar och analyserar kunskapsteorier och kunskapsbildning samt belyser frågan om hur man kan tillämpa kunskap i det dagliga arbetet. Sammantaget ger antologin perspektiv till debatten om evidens inom socialt arbete.Boken riktar sig främst till studerande vid socionomprogram, masterutbildningar och fristående kurser i socialt arbete, men även till yrkesverksamma inom socialtjänst, social omsorg och hälso- och sjukvård.Björn Blom, Stefan Morén och Lennart Nygren är professorer i socialt arbete vid institutionen för socialt arbete, Umeå universitet. Bokenskapitelförfattare är forskare, lärare och experter inom socialt arbete och angränsande ämnen.

Boken presenterar olika bidrag till kunskapsutvecklingen när det gäller samverkan för hälsa och välfärd. Det handlar om teoretiska bidrag såväl som forskningsresultat och praktiska erfarenheter av samverkan. Boken behandlar samverkan mellan olika professioner och organisationer inom hälso- och sjukvård, folkhälsoarbete, vård och omsorg för äldre, psykiatri och missbruksvård, arbetslivsinriktad rehabilitering, stöd till utsatta barn och ungdomar samt samverkan på olycksplatser. Genomgående behandlas olika teoretiska frågeställningar i samband med organisering, ledning, utveckling och utvärdering av samverkan. Dessutom behandlas en rad principiella frågor om välfärdssystemets utveckling och betydelsen av samverkan för att möta de komplexa behoven i det postindustriella samhället.Ett stort antal forskare från det svenska nätverket för forskning om samverkan medverkar i denna bok. Det finns även bidrag från norska och danska forskare inom området. Det är forskare från olika vetenskapliga discipliner. Dessutom medverkar personer med praktisk erfarenhet av samverkan.Om samverkan vänder sig till studerande vid universitet och högskolor samt till personer som är praktiskt verksamma inom hälso- och sjukvård och andra välfärdsområden, där gränsöverskridande samverkan blir ett allt viktigare inslag i verksamheten.

Att förklara samhället är en bok i metodologi. Med den kritiska realismen som grund presenterar författarna metodologiska riktlinjer för en samhällsvetenskap med höga anspråk på att kunna förklara samhälleliga förhållanden. Bokens kapitel behandlar samhällsvetenskapens ontologiska och epistemologiska grunder, begreppsbildning och strukturell analys, kausalitet och förklaring, samhällsvetenskapen som tolkande vetenskap, förhållandet mellan struktur och aktör, olika former av slutledningar och tankeoperationer, relationen mellan det generella och det individuella, teoriers betydelse i forskningspraktiken, olika sätt att koppla teori och empiri, kombinationer av metoder (det som i boken kallas kritisk metodpluralism) samt grunderna för en samhällsrelevant samhällsvetenskap.Kritiken mot de positivistiska vetenskapsidealen, empirismen och tron på den objektiva, bevisade kunskapen har delvis slagit över i sin motsats: en överdriven försiktighet, en långtgående relativism, en betoning på vad vetenskapen inte kan göra i stället för vad den kan göra. Denna bok visar att det finns ett fruktbart alternativ till dessa positioner, ett alternativ som ger mer realistiska och samtidigt konstruktiva grunder för samhällsvetenskaplig forskning.I denna tredje upplaga har flera väsentliga omarbetningar gjorts genom anknytning till aktuell forskning och litteratur samt språkbearbetning. Särskilt finns nya avsnitt om öppna och slutna sociala system samt olika typer av forskning i samarbete med praktiker. Boken vänder sig till alla som vill få en djupare kunskap om vetenskapens grunder och hur spänningen mellan olika vetenskapsteoretiska inriktningar kan lösas. Den är avsedd för akademiska utbildningar inom ett stort fält: samhällsvetenskap, humaniora, hälsovetenskaper och angränsande ämnen.
