    Rural entrepreneurship research: promoting reflexivity or functional stupidity?2013In: Conference abstracts: 11th Rural Enterprise Conference, University of West Scotland , 2013Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    This paper departs from an ongoing interactive research project on entrepreneurial enclaves in southern Sweden aimed at promoting regional development through interaction between local stakeholders, academic researchers and undergraduate university students in three different municipalities. The logic of the project is that university students and academic researchers launch projects in the three municipalities. The projects are planned and performed with support from the local community. By initiating projects in the three municipalities, the research idea is that processes will start that can lead to new initiatives. Through initiating action and interaction the aim of the project is, in an experimental way, to see how entrepreneurship is mobilized. The question is how activities develop in the municipalities as a result of the research project, and how conflicts and resistance partake in this process.

    After having worked with the research project for half a year two issues surprised us; the conformity of the ideas in our three enclaves and the close relatedness, when it comes to practical solutions, between practice and academia. The research project seemed to have resulted in standardized, expected and widespread, common solutions to the kinds of problems and opportunities that are ascribed to the rural areas. As the solutions produced within the project are collaboratively discussed and decided upon by academic staff and local stakeholders, the fault of this lack of imagination seem to be a problem for all of us. Preconceptions about what is important in rural entrepreneurship guide us as researchers when we try to understand the field. Preconceptions were also a point of departure in the enclaves we studied, resulting in a few common solutions for how to cope with downturn and produce regional development. In this paper we are using the concept of functional stupidity (Alvesson & Spicer, 2012) to reflect upon the benefits as well as the drawbacks of the tendency, in the academy as well as in society at large, to produce a stereotypical menu of problems and suggested solutions when it comes to rural development. We also discuss the possibility to break this norm by promoting a kind of reflexivity that has the potential to produce surprising and norm-breaking ideas in the area of rural development.

    Stepping up from the audience: the researcher as director and part of the ensemble2013In: 22nd Nordic Academy of Management conference held at University of Iceland Reykjavík, 21-23 August, 2013: final program and abstracts, Nordic Academy of Management , 2013, p. 73-73Conference paper (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    Adopting a theatrical metaphor, we argue that the engaged researcher can interact with the situation studied in three different research positions: as one of the directors staging an event (1), as a member of the ensemble performing an event (2), as a member of the audience observing an event (3). The three research positions identified are developed theoretically based on action research and interactive research. Those two affiliated methodological traditions have been developed out of the conviction that the neutral and distant research ideal is unrealistic and even problematic, as it holds out the prospect of a possible “view from nowhere” where the presence of the researcher does not influence the situation studied. We give examples from two research projects. In the first project a PhD student interacted within three different events using a specific research position in all three events, thus using all three positions within the same project. In the second project undergraduate students staged his/her project with local stake-holders, and researchers interchangeably staged events as well as took part of the ensemble performing the event and took part in certain events as part of the audience. Taking different roles as well as changing roles made the travel between closeness and distance to the research process possible as well as making sense of the studied processes in both projects. In the first project with a sole researcher extended time is necessary, while in the second project the different roles can be divided by members of the research ensemble.

    Organizing Societal Entrepreneurship: A Cross-Sector Challenge2015In: Handbook of Entrepreneurship and Sustainable Development Research / [ed] Paula Kyrö, Cheltenham: Edward Elgar Publishing, 2015, 1, p. 130-154Chapter in book (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Allying and expanding the diverse fields of entrepreneurship and sustainable development research is a modern day imperative. The Handbook of Entrepreneurship and Sustainable Development Research cuts through the different approaches and perspectives of the two fields to point the way ahead for research on sustainable entrepreneurship, outlining the motivation, intentions and impact of ecopreneurs in a local, national and global context.

    This Handbook paints an illuminating picture of the historic and current understanding of the bond between entrepreneurship and sustainable development. The authors explore the basic contradictions between the two fields and outline the transformative role entrepreneurship can play in achieving sustainable development. 45 expert researchers and their research communities from 16 countries across Europe, Africa, Australia and North America provide original and informative contributions on a variety of issues, from women’s empowerment to climate change and organic farmers to ecotourism.

    With current and authorative contributions spanning the globe, this Handbook will inspire researchers, teachers and policy-makers to compose their own understanding and contribution on the fast expanding field of entrepreneurship and sustainable development.

    Entreprenöriella landsbygdsenklaver: Genomförda studentprojekt i Långasjö socken under 20132013Report (Other academic)
    Abstract [sv]

    Projektet ’Entreprenöriella landsbygdsenklaver’ är det första projekt som tilldelats medel av Familjen Kamprads stiftelse inom området entreprenörskap –särskilt sådan som främjar en levande landsbygd. Projektet bygger på idén att varje bygd har sina specifika förutsättningar och att människorna som bor där också är speciella, varför varje bygd har unika förutsättningar för entreprenörskap. Tidigt i planeringen av projektet skapades begreppet ”landsbygdsenklav” och med detta begrepp som ledstjärna identifierades socken som ett möjligt sätt att uppfatta och beskriva en entreprenöriell bygd präglad av stark samhörighet och handlingskraft. I planeringen av projektet diskuterades vilka bygder (socknar) som skulleingå i studien, vilket ledde till att socknarna Långasjö i Emmaboda kommun samt Älmeboda/Rävemåla och Urshult i Tingsryds kommun valdes ut. Denna rapport redovisar delprojekten i Långasjö.

    Entreprenörskap som kommunikativ handling: skapande av interaktion, uppmärksamhet och manifestationer2013Doctoral thesis, monograph (Other academic)
    Abstract [en]

    The purpose of the present thesis is to create an understanding of entrepreneurship interpreted as communicative action. This is done through reflections on an interactive study that was planned and conducted together with members of a civic network-organization called Societal Change in Practice (SIP). According to Habermas, civic organizations are ideally characterized by a communicative rationality that enables them to organize informal public spheres; that is, arenas in social life where individuals can come together to discuss and act upon societal problems or opportunities that they have experienced in their private life-spheres.

    I have actively participated in three ventures with members from SIP. The first venture revolves around my own and members from SIP’s respective practices as education coordinators. Based on our common interest in education and learning in relation to entrepreneurship, we planned and conducted a series of joint activities that also involved our respective student groups. The activities are interpreted based on my own personal experiences as a researcher participating in a project that requires commitment and responsibility. The second venture involves the creation of a local community magazine that highlights examples of civic initiatives in two municipalities. The production of the magazine is interpreted as an example of how SIP creates public opinion in the local community. The third event relates to the organization of a conference on the subject of youth and digital media. The main message of the conference is interpreted in terms of a manifestation of what the public sphere can accomplish, or as a reaction in defense of a well-functioning public sphere in society.

    The methodological contribution of the thesis is its definition of three interactive research roles based on my own interaction as a researcher in different kinds of ventures. Based on a theatrical metaphor, I argue that the researcher can participate as one of the directors of a venture, as a member of the ensemble that performs a venture, or as a member of the audience that observes an event.

    The theoretical contribution of the study is that it shows how Habermas’ theory of communicative action can be modified and made useful as a theoretical frame of reference for studying entrepreneurship in civil society. Entrepreneurship is understood as a way to vitalize the informal public sphere, thereby influencing society as a whole and not just its economy.

    Partnerships for work place learning in work integrating social enterprizes2018In: PIN-C 2018 Conference Proceedings, Syddansk Universitet, 2018, p. 29-35Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    In this paper the case of a multi-sector partnership with the aim of improving work place learning in Work Integration Social Enterprises is presented. Work Place Learning (WPL) is a concept that connects institutions of education with work places in the surrounding society. Typical examples are when students during their formal education do periods of internships or vocational training in an organization of relevance to their future profession, or when teachers perform curricular activities atwork sites in the community. The two examples illustrate that the “learners” in work place learning could be both students in the educational system and employees at the work sites. Typical and common characteristics for different initiatives related to WPL is that; 1) it is built upon an ambition to combine theoretical knowledge with practice, 2) work-places are seen as important arenas for learning and 3) it is performed in partnerships between heterogeneous actors, often representing different sectors in society. This paper specifically focuses upon the partnership dimension of workplace learning.

    Down to earth: from environmental abstraction to action using interactive research2018In: PIN-C 2018 Conference Proceedings, Syddansk Universitet, 2018, p. 338-344Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Contemporary knowledge production is characterised by the inclusion of a multitude of participants in the research process. Considering environmental issues this is also necessary to be able to reach solutions to these issues. This paper discusses three cases of cross-sector collaboration where interactive research was used. It was shown that interactive research can facilitate the interaction between the abstract issue in the research system and actual action in the research system. This was mainly done by creating collaborative spaces in the form of dialogue arenas which are discussion forums initiated by the interactive researcher. Here the abstract issue can be discussed on a level of practice which makes it easier to comprehend and paves the road for action among the participants.

    Using dialogue arenas to manage boundaries between sectors and disciplines in environmental research projects2017In: International Journal of Action Research, ISSN 1861-1303, E-ISSN 1861-9916, Vol. 13, no 1, p. 24-38Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    An interactive research strategy, a form of action research, was used in two environmental research projects. This strategy emphasises a balance between research and practice. Further, the method of dialogue arenas was used, meaning the creation of different types of meeting places where research and practice interact with each other. This paper shows the strength of these dialogue arenas to identify and cross boundaries. During these dialogue arenas the interactive researcher encountered two such boundaries. The first boundary was found in the research system between social science and natural science. The second boundary was found in the practice system between the collaborating sectors. Dialogue arenas helped in managing these boundaries by clarifying the role of the social scientist, facilitating collaboration, and democratising the research process.

    Overcoming the Triple Helix Boundaries in an Environmental Research Collaboration2017In: Science and Public Policy, ISSN 0302-3427, E-ISSN 1471-5430, Vol. 44, no 2, p. 153-162Article in journal (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Cross-sector interactions between university and other sectors are increasingly important to contemporary knowledge production. However, there are few guidelines for conducting such interactions at the micro-level of actor or research group. The aim of this study was to provide a better understanding of cross-sector collaboration by drawing upon the theory of knowledge boundaries. The main author worked as an action researcher, specifically an interactive researcher, within an environmental research group that was focused on solving on-site industry wastewater issues. Using this approach, we created arenas for dialogue between sectors. During this three-year European Union project, built on three years of previous research, there was an increased demand for the group to develop applied results and to interact with other sectors. Thus, the researchers were challenged to cross boundaries and share their knowledge with partners outside academia. We argue that difficulties are encountered when crossing information process-oriented, cultural, and political boundaries. These difficulties are related to the move between Mode 1 and Mode 2 of knowledge production and the triple helix approach. Solutions to these issues were solved, in part, by the use of boundary spanners and boundary management.

Den samverkan som studeras sker för att hantera välfärdsutmaningar. Sektorerna fyller olika funktioner i vårt samhälle, men samhällskontraktet är statt i förändring. Allt fler tjänster inom välfärdsområdet har under de senaste decennierna utförts av privata företag. Nu vänder sig allt fler till civilsamhället för att hitta lösningar för att hantera välfärdsutmaningarna. Samverkan över sektorsgränser för att lösa utmaningarna kan ses om en del i en större förändringsprocess som rör samhällskontraktet.

    I den här rapporten diskuteras processer och förutsättningar som främjar respektive hindrar sådan samverkan i praktiken. Vi fokuserar på följande frågeställningar:

    • Hur beskriver och uppfattar de involverade aktörerna organisering och samverkan mellan de tre sektorerna?
    • Vilka förutsättningar främjar respektive hindrar samverkan mellan sektorerna?
    • Vilka organisatoriska utmaningar finns vid samverkan mellan sektorer; och hur hanteras utmaningar?

    Frågorna belyses och diskuteras med hjälp av tre fallstudier, kallade Kooperativet, Projektet och Partnerskapet. Forskningen har en så kallad explorativ fallstudiedesign, och vi har genomfört individuella intervjuer och dialoger med aktörer från de tre sektorerna – det offentliga, företagen och civilsamhällets organisationer i de tre fallen. Totalt har cirka 30 intervjuer och ett antal informella dialoger genomförts. Vi har också studerat dokument, och genomfört återföringsdialoger med representanter för de tre samverkansinitiativen.

    De studerade fallen speglar en tid då den offentliga sektorn i landet är i omvandling. Den här rapporten har dokumenterat välfärdsorganisering där nätverkande och marknadslika relationer snarare än byråkratiska principer är avgörande för den verksamhet som sker. Samtliga fall illustrerar betydelsen av nyckelpersoner med förankring i flera sektorer, så kallade gränsgångare. Dessa personer behöver också besitta det vi kallar intersektoriell kompetens, det vill säga kunskaper om och erfarenheter av andra sektorer, samt nätverkskompetens. Sådan kompetens kräver tid och resurser att bygga och utveckla – tidshorisonten för samverkan behöver därför vara lång. Själva samverkan är också tids- och resurskrävande samt förknippad med en hög grad av komplexitet. Våra studier ger genom framförallt i två av fallen visst stöd till de varnande röster som lyfter fram risken att privat sektorslogik tenderar att bli alltmer styrande på samhällets alla områden. Samtidigt ser vi att fruktbar sektorsöverskridande samverkan är möjlig under vissa förutsättningar, vilka vi sammanfattar i termer av fem K:

    • Kompetens – Det krävs drivande gränsgångare som har det vi vill kalla för ”intersektoriell kompetens” och ett starkt engagemang för målgruppen (gränsobjektet).
    • Kontakt – Gränsgångarna måste ha kontakt med andra gränsgångare, med politiker, (andra) tjänstemän samt med gränsobjektet (målgruppen och den samhällsfråga de är en del av).
    • Kapital – Det krävs finansiellt kapital, även från det offentliga. Privat kapital och ideellt arbete kan bidra, men förslår inte i de studerade fallen.
    • Kontinuitet – När förändringar inom organisationerna eller i de externa förutsättningarna blir omfattande, tappar samverkan fart eller blir en omöjlig uppgift. Det behövs en lång tidshorisont.
    • Kontext – Olika organisatoriska lösningar för samverkan fungerar olika bra i olika sammanhang och under olika finansiella förutsättningar. Valet beror av sammanhanget.

    Från de tre studerade fallen kan också lärdomar dras för samverkande aktörer från samtliga tre sektorer. Ett framgångskoncept för alla förefaller vara – att hitta personer i en annan sektor som har samma eller liknande inställning till den aktuella samhällsfrågan och/eller målgruppen – att vara öppen för att lära sig mer om hur de andra sektorerna fungerar – att i möjligaste mån försöka anpassa tempo och rytm till andra samverkande organisationer.
