Our study showed that the informants felt kindly received in the small municipality.

Färre och färre händer : intervjuer om morgondagens landskapsförvaltare i det småskaliga odlingslandskapet

This degree project is based on my personal relation and engagement to the small-scaled cultural landscape. My viewpoint is the village Torpa in Östergötland. My observations of the changes and development together with the stories of the village people has lead me to the questioning about the future prospects of the small-scaled cultural landscape. The rationalization of the society and our urban culture has lead to big changes in the cultural landscape and the people have reduced to a small crowd. Fewer and fewer hands are managing the small-scaled cultural landscape and fewer and fewer young people have connection to this kind of landscape and its management.

I mötet med människan träder historien fram : om hur ett gestaltande av enskilda människor från förr kan beröra och engagera dagens museibesökare

The purpose of this study is to analyze different aspects of a portraying of individuals from a time past. It is concentrated around questions about why it is important to show the people?s stories in, for example, exhibitions and under which conditions this would serve as a good use of history according to different theories about history and the portraying of it.I have chosen the theories of Freidrich Nietzsche and Georg Simmel as a tool to analyze different aspects of the portraying of people from the past. Nietzsche?s theory about the different ways in which we use the past and Simmels theory about the meeting between a viewer and a cultural experience.

Att skapa Alexander den Stores fotspår : Tre generationers nutida föreställningar om Alexander den Store i Proti Serron i Grekland

Tame animals in the wilderness : livestock grazing around summer farms in Jämtland, boreal Sweden 1800-2011

The forest and mire landscape surrounding the north Swedish villages have been of fundamental importance through time for the farmers. In the Scandinavian summer farm system the forest and mire pasture was used to its full potential. The system consisted of smaller summer farms some kilometres from the main farm in the village, and were the livestock grazed in the forest around the summer farm. The livestock affect their environment, and grazed forests generally contain a higher biodiversity than an ungrazed forest. The overall aim of this thesis is to understand the impact of livestock grazing on a northern forest ecosystem over a long time period.

Design och förädling av en liten och kustnära trädgård :

2. SUMMARY A small garden exposed to a harsh coastal climate can be difficult to design. Limitations in space and in plant varieties increase the needs of an in-depth knowledge to achieve wanted goals. In this degree project the challenge has been to create a functional and position adapted garden for a very small beach house lot in Mölle, a little harbour village at the south coast of Kullaberg. ?Villa Malm?, is situated directly on the bedrock in a close settlement where the gardens, in most cases are very small and exposed to strong salty winds.

Den sociala rörligheten bland frälse- respektive skattebönder i Björklinge socken 1786?1848

Between 1750 and 1850 the population of Sweden doubled. The increase was very unequally distributed among the different social groups of the rural population. The number of peasants grew very little, while the numbers of the landless (crofters, bordars etc.) more than quadrupled. This study examines whether Christer Winberg's thesis of the landless growth can be applied to Björklinge parish in Uppland. Winberg believes that it was mainly children of tenant farmers who became landless.

Naturlik förplantering i en urban skala, för ett långsiktigt dynamiskt Science Village Scandinavia : prototyper för skogslika vegetationsridåer som koncept för ett förbättrat mikroklimat, placemaking och ansvarsfull resurshantering enligt Cradle to Cradle

I nordöstra Lund planeras forskningsbyn Science Village Scandinavia (SVS). Stora avstånd mellan viktiga noder i området ses tillsammans med hårda vindar som utmaningar vid arbetet med att göra SVS attraktivt och besöksvärt under den långa exploateringstiden. På uppdrag av SVS AB och Lunds kommun presenterar detta examensarbete ett förslag för en förplantering av naturlik skogsvegetation på platsen. Ett koncept, där smala vegetationsridåer planteras längs de framtida rörelsestråken i SVS, föreslås i examensarbetet som en strategi för att klimatskydda platsen och samtidigt möjliggöra ett bevarande av vegetation som urban grönska i forskningsbyn. I enlighet med projektets stora hållbarhetsambitioner uttrycker konceptet även målet att presentera möjligheter för att använda avlägsnat växtmaterial som en resurs. Hur kan ett långsiktigt dynamiskt vegetationsbyggande, enligt det ekologiska tillvägagångssättet, förena värden såsom vindskydd, rekreationsvärden och ett ekonomiskt resursuttag, både tidigt och på lång sikt? En kunskapssammanställning görs kring vegetation som vindskydd samt hur ett långsiktigt dynamiskt vegetationsbyggande förhåller sig till smalare ridåplanteringar, ett upplevelsemässigt perspektiv, ett tidsperspektiv samt ett växtmateriellt resursuttag.

F?r all sten i Sm?land: Inventeringsunderlag f?r kulturhistorisk v?rdering av stenmurar

This thesis focuses on the construction of drystone walls in the county of Sm?land, as well as their historical value and significance to the county. In Riksantikvarie?mbetets Plattform Kulturhistorisk v?rdering och urval, a directory for historical evaluations of buildings and objects, the first clause is to describe the object and its history. When trying to do this, the lack of literature focusing on the constructional elements of drystone walls and their history became an issue and is what prompted the writing of this thesis. With a study of different handbooks, a compilation of the constructional elements of the walls were put together.

Trä som fasadmaterial ? behandling och beständighet

Since prehistoric time man has used wood to build their environment. The material?s availabilitycombined with its good mechanical properties has often made it the material of choice. Like allmaterials exposed to natures degradative processes the properties of wood decreases over time.Rot, UV radiation and attacks by insects and pests damage wood if not protected. Since we wantwhat we build to consist, optimizing our building materials durability is of great interest.Techniques and methods for increasing the endurance of wood have been developed in severaldifferent places and for a long time.

Att leva enkelt : En studie av livsstilen hos boende i en ekoby

Syftet med denna uppsats är att ge en bild av den livsstil som boende i en ekoby har. Detta har gjorts genom en analys med en teoretisk modell innehållande värden, attityder och handlingar. Två informanter har intervjuats för att ge förståelse för hur värden och handlingar stämmer överens och om det finns genomförda handlingar som inte bottnar i grundläggande värden. Resultatet visar att beslutet att bo i en ekoby är väl genomtänkt och grundas på viktiga värden. Strävan efter att leva ett enkelt liv är det centrala, vilket kopplas ihop med global rättvisa.
