The purpose of the study is to investigate and elucidate how and why municipalities cooperate across municipal boundaries with destination development. To answer the purpose the authors chose two research questions:What are the incentives of cooperation between the municipalities in Roslagen? What are the possibilities and difficulties of cooperation? In order to answer the research questions interviews with local business managers, administrative director, the acting Head of destination and tourist office staff were made. Municipalities have signed a cooperation agreement in October/November 2008, where they will work more formal together to strengthen the destination Roslagen. The result of the study shows that the main motive for municipal cooperation is the sharing of financial resources to promote and develop the destination Roslagen together.

North of the city of Stockholm lies the area called Södra Roslagen composed of several municipalities. The purpose of this essay is to discover how local informants describe the food culture of the region and analyse why some types of food are mentioned and others are excluded. Several people within the food industry of Södra Roslagen were given surveys asking them to describe the food habits of the area, from commodities and certain dishes to traditions. These answers were analysed using the theories regional food, regiocentrism, revitalisation, placeless food and the idea of viewing culture through the long and the short perspective.One informant mentioned that professionals in the food industry of the region tend to follow trends from the rest of the world and another that many producers work with ecological requirements. Södra Roslagen was also defined by some as having a taste of summer as this coastal area sees an influx of visitors during that season.

Control and comparison of various cleaning methods on restaurants in Södra RoslagenThe purpose of this report is to find out and analyze the efficiency of cleaning methods in restaurant kitchens. The investigation was carried out through unannounced inspections at 89 restaurants in Södra Roslagen (municipality of Danderyd, Täby and Vaxholm). ATP-measuring was done on a plate, a knife, a bench surface and a cutting board. The ATP-method measured the amount of food residue on equipment and working surfaces after cleaning, with a luminometer and swabs. Restaurant staffs were asked to describe in detail how and when the last cleaning was carried out on the surface.

Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka om kvinnor i Roslagens ytterskärgård haft en högre ställning än kvinnor på fastlandet. Frågeställningarna har kretsat kring kön och kompetens.Materialet som använts är kvalitativa intervjuer, personliga anteckningar, minnen och dagboksutdrag där skärgårdsbornas egna berättelser har varit i centrum. Med hjälp av en metod kallad snöbollsmetoden har materialet samlats i samspel med informanterna där ?det ena gett det andra? likt en snöboll som växer ju längre den rullar. Metoden tillsammans med teoretiska utgångspunkter som intersektionalitet och genussystemet har legat till grund för den etnografiska skrivprocess som också varit en stor del av analysarbetet.Resultatet visar att kvinnor i skärgården har haft en högre ställning än kvinnor på land, troligen främst på grund av att den särskilda skärgårdskompetens, som barn på öar fått då de växt upp, varit oumbärlig för familjernas överlevnad såväl ekonomiskt som fysiskt.Nyckelord: kvinnor,.

Gräsö är en ö utanför Upplandskusten i norra Roslagen. Här har länsstyrelsen i Uppsalalän fattat beslut om att göra ett marint naturreservat utanför öns östkust, för att bland annat bevara de grunda havsvikarna. Detta väcker starka känslor och upplevelser hos de fastboende på ön. Vissa är för bildandet av reservatet medan andra är emot det. Uppsatsen har tagit form med hjälp av de grupper av informanter som finns representerade.

Summary The place I have been working with is a garden, belonging to a family estate, called Tolvmansgården. It is located on an island northeast of Norrtälje in Roslagen. The frontage is red with white corners like so many other houses in the neighbourhood, but ours is one of the oldest houses on the island. Today the house and garden is own by my mother, Pia Johansson. Since I?ve started my education in garden design my interest for our country garden has increased.

The purpose of this study is to investigate, and if possible explain, how background, childhood, and education in a municipal or regional context can affect young peoples? life trajectories.The living conditions for the population in the coastal region Roslagen with its geographical and historical specificities has during centuries largely been characterized by practical crafts-manship. With a growing share of non-permanent residents in the region with demand for help and services, this culture has during the later years been able to prosper. The social reproduc-tion in the municipality also seems to be extensive. In addition to original background, appar-ently the municipality?s service-dominated trade and industry culture has also affected the choice of education and profession of the youth in Norrtälje.
