Suter, Brigitte Journal article in SBF Journal;1 : Ankara Universitesi, Ankara Universitesi Siyasal Bilgiler Fakültesi (2013)	peer-reviewed scientific ARTICLE

English abstract:

Drawing from ethnographic material collected during fieldwork in Istanbul between 2007 and 2009, this article departs from the increased presence of nationals from Sub-Saharan African countries in Turkey, and in three sections looks at how ethnic relations, conceptualised as processes of boundary-making, play out between these migrants and the Turkish majority population. Grounded in a constructivist paradigm and applying an intersectional perspective, the first section looks at how the discourse of the Other in the mainstream is perceived, internalised, made sense of and to some part resisted. The second section ‘returns the gaze’ and gives room for my interlocutor’s’ perception of the mainstream’s ethnicity, while the last section looks at how whiteness is perceived when it becomes gendered. Apart from race, ethnicity and gender, research participants also regarded religion and legal status as dominant markers of identity and difference in the Turkish context.

Barriers in implementation of evidence-based practice : supported emp...
Hasson, Henna; Andersson, Mats; Bejerholm, Ulrika Journal article in Journal of health organization and management;3 : Emerald (2011)	peer-reviewed scientific ARTICLE

English abstract:

Purpose – The aim of this paper is to identify initial barriers influencing implementation of supported employment (SE). SE, according to the individual placement and support (IPS) approach, has been recognised as an evidence-based method to help people with severe mental illness to find regular employment. Design/methodology/approach – A systematic implementation evaluation of the first randomised controlled SE (IPS) trial in Sweden was conducted in August 2008 and August 2009. Data were collected on a regular basis from SE employment specialists, process heads, clients and representatives from mental health care units and vocational services (social insurance and public employment offices) using interviews, non-participant observations and document analysis. Findings – SE employment specialists reported that existing regulations for social insurance and employment regulations presented major obstacles to implementation. Difficulties were reported in cooperation with handling officers at the vocational services. Scepticism towards persons with mental illness was common and employers expected to receive subsidies if they hired a person with mental illness. SE participants expressed fear of losing their social benefits. Originality/value – The results illuminate a collision between an innovative evidence-based practice and the existing systems for social benefits and work rehabilitation.

Majority versus minority : 'governmentality' and Muslims in Sweden
Roald, Anne Sofie Journal article in Religions;1 : MDPI (2013)	peer-reviewed scientific ARTICLE

English abstract:	This article deals with the Muslim community in Sweden in view of the majority–minority dynamics with focus on how values, attitudes, behaviors, and practices of the Swedish majority influence Muslim minority communities and how majority society’s approach to Muslims and Islam influences both the relationship Muslims have with non-Muslims and the understandings that Muslims have of Islam.
