Tensions in the Field of Health Care

In most health and social care sectors in the Western world during

the last few decades there have been increased demands for a

more scientifically supported knowledge base in practice. The

gap between scientifically generated knowledge and practice is

generally considered a dilemma, and to reduce this gap, and to

respond to requirements for a more integrated care within health

and social care sectors, networks are emerging as a solution. This

study focuses nine research and development (R&D) networks set

up to promote a professional approach to care and strengthen the

collaboration between health care sectors in a Swedish health care

setting. The research project was embedded in an action research

approach intended to encourage network development by means

of a dialogical process. The specific research question was: What

are the actors’ perceptions of knowledge networks and how might

we account for the networks’ evolution, role and ways of working?

Bourdieu’s concepts reproduction and symbolic violence were

used as analytical tools and were chosen as a way of answering

and explaining the empirical story line.
