Pokémon Go, augmented reality (AR) and player engagement : was it all a hype? : a systematic review ; Pokemon Go, utvidet virkelighet (AR) og spillerengasjement : en systematisk oversikt
The aim of this study was to reveal if there is literature about who's still playing Pokémon Go two years after game launch, and whether players report the AR-aspect as part of the reason they're still engaging in the game. Investigating the phenomenon covered widely by news and social media from this angle could be of interest of public health workers with the ambition to replicate the success. We ran a systematic search resulting in 22 articles included, published between 2016-2018. The results revealed that the main part of the included studies were conducted just around game launch (July 2016) and within the first six months Pokémon Go was out "in the wild". AR was in general not questioned about, and there exists different and vague understandings of what augmented reality actually is. We were not able to identify the typical long-term player engaging with the game, and to what extent AR was a part of the prolonged success. The search also revealed a lack of longitudinal studies (with larger, more representative participant groups) about general social and mental health implications of playing the game. The studies imply a successful combination of several game aspects - whether playing for the adventure and discovering new places, family bonding, general game flexibility, "to pass time", a bit of nostalgia – or just for fun. Further studies are needed to understand of which importance it is to implement an AR- or location-based-feature, the importance of branding, what app/game mechanics appeal to the general and how deeply immersive experiences through a mobile screen are able to affect us, dragging us into an augmented world – and keeping us there. ; M-FOL

Two medieval Occitan toll registers from Tarascon
In: Medieval Academy books no. 115
"Two Medieval Toll Registers from Tarascon presents an edition, translation, and discussion of two vernacular toll registers from fourteenth and fifteenth-century Provence. These two registers are a valuable new source for the economic, linguistic, and transportation history of medieval France, offering a window onto the commercial life of Tarascon, a fortified town on the east bank of the Rhône between Avignon and Arles. William D. Paden discusses the developing fiscal policy of the counts of Provence, for whom the tolls were collected, and the practice and vocabulary of medieval toll-keeping. An afterword considers the toll registers in relation to the poetry of troubadours, arguing that the realism of the registers and the idealism of troubadour poetry overlapped in the world of medieval Tarascon.

Historiemaleriet i Norge
Part II of this thesis is not available in Munin: Historien fremstilt i bilder. Knut Ljøgodt. Oslo, Pax Forlag, 2011, ISBN 9788253033211. ; Avhandlingen Historiemaleriet i Norge omhandler historiemaleri – eller nærmere bestemt historisk-mytologiske fremstillinger – med vekt på norsk kunst fra 1800-tallet, sett i sammenheng med spesielt skandinavisk og generelt vestlig kunsthistorie. Avhandlingen består av ialt fem tekster. Del 1, Introduksjon, gjør rede for avhandlingens tema, omfang og formål og knytter sammen de forskjellige tekstene. Introduksjonen redegjør for eksisterende forskning, samt for tilnærmingsmåter og mål med avhandlingen. Videre gis en oversikt over forståelsen av historiemaleriet gjennom tidene ,og det gjøres rede for ettertidens behandling av historiemaleriet og dermed genrens status i tidligere kunsthistorieskrivning. Del 2, boken Historien fremstilt i bilder, er den mest omfattende av tekstene og er å betrakte som avhandlingens kjerne. Dette utgjør den første større studien om fenomenet her til lands. Boken gir en oversikt over norsk historiemaleri på 1800-tallet, sett på bakgrunn av skandinaviske og europeiske strømninger. I boken vektlegges det videre å gå nærmere inn på valg av motivkretser, samt å se disse i forskjellige samtidige sammenhenger. I tillegg består avhandlingen tre artikler. Den første av disse er «Knud Baade als Historienmaler». Her får man et eksempel på én norsk kunstner på 1800-tallet som søkte å spesialisere seg som historiemaler. Deretter følger «'… nordiske Marmorguder'». Artikkelen tar for seg utsmykninger og planlagte, men ikke gjennomførte, utsmykninger ved Universitetet i Oslo på 1800-tallet og frem til Munchs aulamalerier. Hovedinteressen i de prosjekterte utsmykningene lå på historisk-mytologiske motiver. Artikkelen gir dermed et innblikk i hvilke muligheter som forelå, men også hvilke hindre som lå i veien for å utviklet et norsk historiemaleri. Den femte og siste av tekstene er «'Northern Gods in Marble'», som handler om 1800-tallets anvendelse av emner fra norrøn mytologi – og gir således muligheten for en mer fokusert studie av én sentral motivgruppe. Historiemaleriet i Norge gir således den første, brede oversikt over norsk historiemaleri på 1800-tallet. Tilnærmingen er empirisk idet avhandlingen for en stor del er basert på grunnforskning. Samtidig benyttes en ikonografisk tilnærmingsmåte for å se nærmere på motivgruppene. Videre benyttes en resepsjonshistorisk tilnærming for å se hvordan genren er blitt mottatt. Generelt søkes det å sette historiemaleriet inn i en større idéhistorisk og politisk-historisk sammenheng. Avhandlingen demonstrerer at historiemaleriet som genre var adskillig mer utbredt i norsk kunst på 1800-tallet enn tidligere antatt, og at en rekke sentrale kunstnere befattet seg med det. Videre demonstreres det at norsk historiemaleri må sees på bakgrunn av datidens politisk-historiske situasjon og at motivene for en stor del velges utfra nasjonale idealer. Som det kommer frem, dominerer motiver fra norrøn historie og mytologi. Avhandlingen stiller også spørsmål ved genrens marginaliserte posisjon i norsk og vestlig kunsthistorie og knytter således an til en revisjonistisk kunsthistorieskrivning.

To reformer i norsk bistandsforvaltning – modeller med eller mot strømmen?
In: https://hdl.handle.net/11250/2774517
In this thesis, we compare two organizational reforms within one policy area. How the "Modernization reform for development management" from 2002/03 and the "Reform for the organization of grant management" from 2018/19, affected the relationship between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Norad - the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation. Central is the political choice of the overall organizational model in the reforms, with two main alternatives: an integrated model in which the directorate becomes part of the ministry, and a delegated model that assigns the directorate additional tasks (enhanced vertical autonomy). In the thesis, we examine what led to the reform in 2003, and whether the newer reform can be regarded as a continuation of the 2003 reform. We have chosen to base our analysis on the theoretical framework for reforms by Pollitt and Bouckaert. The thesis is a comparative case study, and the analysis is based on three types of data sources: semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and media coverage. In the thesis, we find that several driving forces contributed to the initiation of reform in 2002/03, but that the Minister of Development's political ambitions must be regarded as a main reason to reform. The result of the reform was a mixed model, which can best be explained by the interaction - or tug-of-war - between two ministers, between foreign policy and development policy and the meeting between political desires and what was administratively feasible. Unresolved issues in the 2003 reform led to constant attempts to find an administrative balance in the years between the two reforms. In 2019, driving forces within the political system, especially party politics, became decisive for the choice of model, after the political party KrF (the Christian Democrats) entered the government. By studying the two reforms over time, we show in the thesis that ongoing discussions about the interface between politics and administration, as well as tensions between foreign policy and development policy interests, were central to the reform processes. This may help explain why reforms are repeated. The thesis is a contribution to understanding reforms in a context that also includes the time perspective. ; publishedVersion

Mot økt folkelig innflytelse? Desentralisering og lokaldemokrati i Ukraina ; Towards greater popular participation? Decentralization and local democracy in Ukraine
The article analyses the results of a nationally representative survey on local democracy conducted in Ukraine in the autumn of 2017, offering insights into attitudes towards local authorities and ongoing decentralization reforms, as well as participation in local politics. The survey shows that people have very low trust in the authorities, but more trust in them than in national institutions. Respondents feel that they have little influence on local politics and that local authorities do not take their opinion into account. On the other hand, the majority report being active in various forms of local political activity. Further, there is considerable support of decentralization reforms; people have already noted certain local improvements since the decentralization reform was launched in 2015. Differences among the several geographical regions of Ukraine are small. Survey findings are explained through three analytical frameworks that emphasize the historical heritage, important economic and political conditions, and structural adjustment to European institutions. ; Artikkelen er skrevet med finansiering fra det norske Utenriksdepartementet (prosjekt UKR-14/0013) og Norges Forskningsråd (NORRUSS Pluss-programmet, prosjektnr. 287620).
