    • Diffracting Dementia Co-creative Experiments with Agential Realism and Multisensoriality in a Residential Care Home in Northern Norway 

      Lukic, Dragana; Mittner, Lilli (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023)
      Alzheimer’s Disease and other dementias (ADD) challenge Western economies, in which biomedical human-centric understandings of ADD as deficit dominates. To imagine lives with ADD differently, we have facilitated and researched co-creative art sessions rooted in feminist posthumanities in residential care homes in Northern Norway. We have experimented with Karen Barad’s diffractive methodology, ...
    • Democratic Equality 

      Fjørtoft, Kjersti (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023-04-12)
      Most academic institutions in liberal democratic societies aim toward equality and justice and share the aim that people’s prospects for an academic career should not be affected by factors such as gender, socioeconomic background, ethnicity or race. At the same time, these are precisely the kinds of factors that affect people’s opportunities. Among other things, equality concerns the distribution ...

      Isaksson, Elisabeth; Ryall, Anka (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-05-18)
      Louise Boyd (1887–1972) was a female pioneer in Arctic research whose legacy includes the exploration of north-east Greenland.

Research communities are discussing what it could mean to decolonize thining practices, conditions of knowledge creation, and access to higher education. Since the arts are a powerful ...
    • Arts-based pathways for sustainable transformation towards a more equal world 

      Meling, Lise Karin; Mittner, Lilli; Maxwell, Kate (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-11-22)
      The cultural sector is a potential instigator of change due to its experimental, performative, and relational nature. However, like everywhere else, the cultural sector re-enacts and thus conserves inequalities of various kinds through its outreach to wider audiences and its deep engagement in socio-cultural practices. By taking our actions within the ERASMUS+ project ‘Voices of Women’ as a ...

      Meling, Lise Karin; Fadnes, Petter Frost; Mittner, Lilli (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-25)

    • Intersectionality 

      Losleben, Lisa Katrin; Musubika, Sarah (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023)
      An individual studying and working at a university is never seen as simply an “educator”, “administrative staff member”, or “student”, but as a complex being with a profession, function, and various identity markers like age, gender, sexuality, ability, ethnicity, skin colour, social background, language, religious beliefs, class, and academic line, among others. Drawing from Kimberlé Crenshaw’s ...
    • The passport as actor in the enactment of the Russian-Norwegian border 

      Lotherington, Ann Therese; Flemmen, Anne Britt (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2019)
      The point of departure for this chapter is that the passport can only be understood with regard to the conduct and practical experience of those using it, and that the passport is embedded in ‘heterogeneous networks’ of people, practices and things (Timmermans and Berg 2003). The passport is nothing in and by itself but becomes of significance the moment a closed border is to be passed. The point ...
    • Enacting citizenship through writing: an analysis of a diary written by a man with Alzheimer’s disease 

      Lotherington, Ann Therese; Obstfelder, Aud Uhlen (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2023-05-10)
      Citizenship and dementia studies have, during the last 15 years, grown into a substantial body of research recognising the experiences and agentic powers of people living with dementia. This article aims to contribute to and extend this research field.

      This chapter reports from three studies of implementation and use of electronic patient records and systems for health information exchange.

    • Sustainable gender equality: Opening the black-box of quality assessment in higher arts education 

      Mittner, Lilli; Gjærum, Rikke Gürgens; Blix, Hilde Synnøve (Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2022)
      Issues of gender equality (GE) in academia receive increasing attention in terms of social justice and human resource management, and quality of research (Leach, 2016; Thompson, 2018; Pandey, 2019). While there is a body of research on gender representations and measures for women’s advancement in academia (Riegraf et al., 2010), little research has been conducted on the intertwinement of quality ...

It argues for the need to educate agents of change and outlines the VOW approach along four pillars: (1) Performative Research (2) Unheard ...
    • Barns fiskevær: Jenters og gutters uteaktiviteter som bidrag til konstruksjon av sted og kjønn 

      Gerrard, Siri (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-08-29)
      Artikkelen handler om barn og deres utendørsaktiviteter i et nordnorsk fiskevær som jeg velger å kalle for Fiskeværet. Barna, dvs. fire jenter og fem gutter i åtte-tiårsalderen, gikk på en skole der elever fra flere trinn var samlet i en og samme klasse, noe som er vanlig på norske skoler der elevtallet er lite. Spørsmålet jeg stiller er hvordan barnas utendørsaktiviteter bidro til å konstruere sted ...
