The legal system’s assessments of parental lack of care: A quantitative content analysis on gender, sex and the meaning of the parental role (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka i vilken omfattning föräldrar beskrivs i domar utifrånrekvisiten omsorgsbrist i lagen (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga (LVU)samt om det går att urskilja skillnader i beskrivningarna beroende på föräldrars kön. Materialetför studien bestod av 30 domar med bifallsbeslut tagna under tidsperioden juni – december2020 från Förvaltningsrätten i Stockholm. Domarna studerades med hjälp av en kvantitativinnehållsanalys till vilken en enkät utformades i syfte att räkna antalet fraser som beskrevrespektive förälder och deras omsorgsbrist. Studiens ramverk utgjordes av ett intersektionelltperspektiv där genus hade en central roll. Resultatet visade en statistiskt signifikant skillnad ibeskrivningar mellan könen. Fler fraser användes i domsluten för att beskriva mammor änpappor, både gällande bristande omsorgsförmåga och negativa attribut. Det kan konstateras attföräldrarna skildras ojämlikt i domarna. Detta kan betyda att mammor ställs som ytterstansvariga i domsluten när omsorgen brister.

Abstract [en]

The aim of this study was to investigate to which extent parents are described in judgments based on the requisite lack of care in the law of mandatory care of minors, and whether it is possible to distinguish differences in these descriptions depending on the parents’ gender. The material of the study consisted of 30 judgments with approval decisions from the Administrative Court in Stockholm. The judgments were analyzed using a quantitative content analysis to which a survey was designed to count the number of phrases which described each parent, respectively. The framework of the study consisted of an intersectional perspective. The result showed a statistically significant difference in descriptions between the parents’ gender. More phrases were used in the judgments to describe mothers than fathers, both regarding lack of caring ability and negative attributes. It can be stated that parents are described in an inequal manner in the judgments.
