Activists and researchers have voiced concerns about feminism turning too much to criminalisation.

Why did both of you choose to study at Karlstad Business School?
– I think the biggest reason is that we’re born in Värmland, says Erik Steijner. Moving to Karlstad felt natural. We didn’t have any solid plans for life, so instead of applying for random jobs, we chose to study.
What were your expectations for the degree programme at Karlstad Business School? Did it live up to your expectations?
– Our original idea was to study IT, says Erik.

Syftet med denna panel är att presentera och diskutera forskning om #metoo, främst i Sverige, ur ett tvärdisciplinärt perspektiv. Panelen samlar forskare från olika discipliner som data- och systemvetenskap, genusvetenskap, juridik, medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, pedagogik, och statsvetenskap för att belysa hur #metoo-aktivismen i Sverige beskrivits och organiserats, samt vilka konsekvenser aktivismen haft för olika områden.
Understanding Wider Research Impact
The precise definition of ‘wider research impact’ varies between funders, but, at its most basic level, it is the beneficial change which research creates in society beyond academia. This could be through the enhanced effectiveness of public services and policy, improving quality of life and health, or economic benefits.
