It originates from an interview with Mary, a twenty-three-year-old woman who participated in a study of social network responses to young people with health problems. Since her family was the locus of her troubles, she had tried to get recognition from adults in a number of ways. Her narrative brings to the fore some essential questions for a relational bioethical approach to healthcare, such as: What counts as a family—and who is to decide? What kind of ethical dilemmas will personnel in a family-oriented healthcare system have to face if they meet children who introduce them to family forms that are not self-evident?

They all lived in the same rural area in central Sweden. Evident in these recordings was the fact that even if the children themselves were not the targets of violence they were not passive bystanders in the way the concept ‘witness’ may sometimes entail. They always did something in response, for example trying to escape by turning on music or seeking refuge in a sibling’s bed. They had been successful in blocking out the visual, but not the audible aspects of the violence. Some took action in efforts to stop the violence, such as calling the police, rescuing the mother or ‘playing’ with the violent man — their father or stepfather, or the mother’s boyfriend — with the purpose of distracting him (Hyden, 2009; Overlien and Hyden, 2009).

The aim was to gain an understanding of young women's perceptions of the reasons they started, continued, and stopped selling sex. The study included interviews with 15 young women between the ages of 15 and 25 (M=18.9). Thematic analysis was used to identify similarities and differences in the narratives. Three themes and eight subthemes were identified in relation to different stages in their lives in the sex trade. The themes were organized into three parts, each with its own storyline: "Entering-adverse life experiences"; traumatic events: feeling different and being excluded. "Immersion-using the body as a tool for regulating feelings"; being seen: being touched: being in control: affect regulation and self-harming. "Exiting-change or die"; living close to death: the process of quitting. The informants all had stable social lives in the sense that they had roofs over their heads, food to eat, and no substance-abuse issues. None had a third party who arranged the sexual contacts and none were currently trafficked. They described how their experiences of traumatic events and of feeling different and excluded had led them into the sex trade. Selling sex functioned as a way to be seen, to handle traumatic events, and to regulate feelings. Professionals working with young people who sell sex online need to understand the complex web of mixed feelings and emotional needs that can play a role in selling sex. Young people selling sex might need guidance in relationship building as well as help processing traumatic experiences and ending self-harming behavior. Further studies are needed on the functions of online sex selling and on the exit process for young people, in order to prevent entrance and facilitate exiting.

The contributors examine how "narratives" have emerged and been utilized within these areas to help those who have experienced d injury, disability, dementia, pain, grief, or psychological trauma to express their stories. Encompassing clinical case studies, ethnographic field studies and autobiographical case studies, Health, Illness and Culture offers a broad overview and critical analysis of the present state of "illness narratives" within the fields of health and social welfare.

När det gäller ämnet socialt arbete har könsperspektiv i praktiken kommit att bli liktydigt med kvinnoperspektiv. Endast undantagsvis har män och manlighet blivit föremål för studier, och när så skett har det varit någon form av »problematisk manlighet« som undersökts. Exempel på sådana studier är Att lyssna till en kör av röster:
