In the Law and Emotion field, the integration of reason and emotion finds support in empirical research. Legal practice, however, still maintains that ‘rational, objective’ law is devoid of emotion. This raises the question of how to incorporate the divide itself in a theoretical understanding of the role of emotions in legal practice.

Using judges and stage actors as instructive polar types this article elucidates factors that influence the inclination to empathise. Both come in close contact with dramatic life stories on an everyday basis but approach empathy from contrasting vantage points: emotional distance versus emotional engagement. Similarities between these polar types can thus disentangle some of the factors that inflUsing judges and stage actors as instructive polar types this article elucidates factors that influence the inclination to empathise.

This thesis takes as its starting point the dramaturgical metaphor of the world as a stage, which is used in sociological role theories. These theories often presume what stage acting is about in order to use it as a simile for every day acting. My intention is to investigate how stage actors actually work with their roles, in particular how they work with emotions, and how it affects their privatThis thesis takes as its starting point the dramaturgical metaphor of the world as a stage, which is used in sociological role theories.

Med socialt arbete i hälso- och sjukvård som exempel menar vi i egenskap av disputerade socialarbetare att ett stärkt socialt arbete i vården kan bana väg för en samhällsutveckling där de sociala aspekterna av hälsa tas på större allvar än idag. Vi måste omsätta vetskapen om att jämlikhet och hälsa hänger samman i konkret praktik. Vi argumenterar för att detta i och med klimatkrisen kräver att vi

Given that the climate emergency is accelerating, transformative climate action becomes increasingly urgent. Considering social and fairness implications of climate action is critical to avoid widening inequalities and public opposition. The just transitions (JT) and sustainable welfare/eco-social policy (SW/ESP) literatures both address social and fairness issues related to climate action. Howeve

Proletarization of the countryside featured the birth of modern Sweden. Landless poor, tenants, corvée labourers, indentured servants of the nobility, the freeholders and the industrialists, characterized rural Sweden. This heterogenous group of central Sweden also included a group of Sámi whom, avoiding eviction to the far north, were forced to sign contracts as hunters, butchers, and crafters in
