    Skolning i sexuell egenmakt : Unga svenska kvinnors berättelser om tillfälligt sex

    Mer än var tredje ung kvinna i Sverige uppger sig ha haft en tillfällig sexuell förbindelse under det senaste året. I den här studien fokuserar Michael Tholander och Ninni Tour på fyra unga kvinnors berättelser om sina egna upplevelser av tillfälligt sex. Analyserna bygger på en fenomenologisk ansats och visar på erfarenheter som ofta framställs i negativ dager. Bristfällig kommunikation, maktobalans och otillfredsställande sex beskrivs som vanliga problem, särskilt i relation till händelser i unga år. Samtidigt menar deltagarna att dessa problem fått dem att förändra sitt sätt att tänka, känna och handla i relation till sex, vilket indikerar att unga kvinnors tidiga sexuella upplevelser har en viktig socialiserande funktion. Om deltagarnas egna perspektiv accepteras är det således rimligt att förstå sexuell egenmakt som något som inte enbart etableras genom sekundära källor, såsom sexualundervisning, media eller vänner, utan som också växer fram genom individuellt färgade, erfarenhetsbaserade utvecklingsprocesser.More than every third young woman in Sweden states that they have had casual sex during the past year. In this study, Michael Tholander and Ninni Tour focus on four young women’s narratives of their own involvement in casual sex. The analyses are based on a phenomenological approach and show experiences that are often presented in negative ways. Inadequate communication, power imbalance and unsatisfactory sex are described as common problems, especially in relation to events in younger years. At the same time, the participants believe that these problems have made them change their ways of thinking, feeling, and acting in relation to sex, which indicates that young women’s early sexual experiences have an important socializing function. Thus, if the participants’ own perspectives are accepted, sexual agency might best be understood as individually colored, experience-based, developmental processes rather than as something that is established through secondary sources, such as sex education, media, or friends

    Square Dancing with the Stars to Enhance Dynamic Hirschman Linkages?

    In this Presidential Address, the author takes the reader on a reconnaissance of his life and time as a regional scientist. He points out scenery he found scintillating along the way, hoping that some may pick up the banner and chew on a few of the ideas for a while. He suggests a revisit to Albert O. Hirschman’s notion of key sectors and more empirical analysis related to Marcus Berliant’s and Masahisa Fujita’s notion of knowledge creation and transfer.Presidential Address, San Antonio, Texas, March 29, 2014 (53rd Meetings of the Southern Regional Science Association
