Institional theory
Samverkan inom ramen för barnahusen befinner sig i ett spänningsfält mellan rättsområdena straffrätt och socialrätt och därmed också mellan normrationalitet och målrationalitet. Straffrätten tillhör det traditionella rättssystemet, där beslutsfattande (främst) fungerar enligt normrationella principer, jämfört med beslutsfattandeprinciper inom socialrätten vilka (främst) fungerar enligt målrationella principer.
The Swedish term appears to be the equivalent of "stress field" in English and is used almost exclusively in earth sciences. Would be grateful for any suggestions on how to translate this.
Many thanks in advance!

I think this would be self-explanatory.

I think this would fit.

spänningsfält = area characterized by tension = tense area

force field
A literal description of (strong) forces at play. Example: political force field, clearing the force field in a room. See the link to an article on Robert Oppenheimer below, Life in a Force Field.
Excerpt from EAPAA, Heart for the Public Cause:
All functions mentioned above have in common the public manager works from an integral
perspective. He is like ‘the spider in the web’ of the social-political force field and:
· oversees the decision trajectory (from conditions to consequences);
· takes the political force field, in which decisions are taken or not, into consideration;
· thinks strategically;
· contributes to the design of the decision trajectory (including financial-economic and legal aspects);
· quickly and adequately masters the content knowledge on the subject of the decision trajectory.

grey area
A little imprecise perhaps but this is what I would expect to see in English
Peer comment(s):

Helen Johnson
: Could be, although doesn't necessarily imply concept of tension involved in trying to categorise
