The idea of history as magistra vitae - a collection of good and bad examples - was a central topos of historical writing in the West from Antiquity till the late 18th century. The idea has served a number of different ends, motivating advanced political theory as well as functioning as a mere saying. The article investigates two history books, both written for pedagogical purposes, and produced according to this idea: Johannes Schefferus' Memorabilum Sueticae gentis exemplorum liber singularis from 1671 and Ove Malling's Store og gode Handlinger af Danske, Norske og Holstenere from 1777. The books differ considerably from modern history books in not being structured chronologically but according to the virtues the histories are meant to illustrate. The article compares the books' structure, tables of contents, selection of virtues and introductory texts. The aim is to explore how the books communicate quite different ideas about individuals and society despite their very similar structure and their shared idea of the meaning of history and its didactic usefulness.

Face aux difficultés d'application des politiques visant à l'implication des citoyens au sein des projets urbains, nous nous intéresserons aux démarches d'urbanisme transitoire comme vecteur de participation. Nous nous appuierons sur l'exemple du projet Les Grands Voisins réalisé à Paris par les associations Aurore, Plateau Urbain et Yes We Camp. Cette occupation temporaire assure la transition du site entre son ancienne fonction d'hôpital et le futur éco-quartier dont le chantier débutera en 2018. Après avoir contextualisé la notion de participation dans le domaine de l'urbanisme, nous nous intéresserons aux outils soulevés par Les Grands Voisins afin de créer des actions participatives, puis, nous essayerons de déterminer en quoi cette occupation temporaire a pu influer et impacter le projet d'éco-quartier.

Raw vegetarian food and life reform: Maximilian Bircher-Benner and the Swedish health foods movements. By Motzi Eklöf. Movements for life reform, natural healing, and health foods have persisted in Sweden since the last decades of the 19th century. Stressing the importance of less alcohol and other drugs, a proper diet, and the use of natural healing methods, they have displayed conflicts concerning individual rights to decide in matters concerning one's own body and health in relation to a medicine and state demands. Swedish movements for natural healing and health foods have developed under influence from leading figures and movements in Sweden, Germany, Switzerland, North America, and England. In 1900, the Swiss physician Maximilian Bircher-Benner (1867–1939) launched his theory of "sunlight food", meaning that uncooked vegetables and fruits were containing the most energy, whereas meat was radically less nourishing. His theories were contrary to contemporary medical and bourgeois culture considering meat as the optimum food, at least for real men. He became an outsider in medicine until the discovery of vitamins in the 1920s lent him some support. His clinic "Lebendige Kraft" in Zürich received well-to-do clients from all over the world; these were treated with different physical methods, raw vegetarian food, and proper routines for day and night. Stressing the importance of raw vegetarian food, Bircher-Benner influenced vegetarians and food reformers in Sweden during the 20th century. In the 1930s, especially women with connections to the Swedish vegetarian association, founded in 1903, recommended his philosophy of food and natural healing. Menus copied from his books were used in health resorts, vegetarian pensions, and restaurants. But during the decades around World War II, Are Waerland dominated the Swedish health-food scene, demanding adherence to his very restrictive health food programme. The post-war health movements drew on both Waerland and Bircher-Benner in their food recommendations. This article proposes factors facilitating or counteracting a broader acceptance of Bircher-Benner's ideas in Sweden. Health resorts and strong lay traditions in the health care field have maintained a tradition of non-invasive and non-pharmacological healing methods. A strained relationship between medical doctors and lay vegetarian spokesmen have made a more serious discussion of the topic difficult. Political associations tied to natural healing in Germany during the 1930s have affected the debate and have probably also restrained a broader acceptance of these ideas. Today, scientific studies have resulted in official nourishment recommendations similar to a previously launched "health food".

The objectives of this study are to critically map and analyse past and current discussions, negotiations and social processes that take place and relate to conditions created by living in- or monitoring the World Heritage City Angra do Heroísmo in the Azores, Portugal. Based on ethnographic fieldwork and qualitative interviews with the stakeholders in the city, the purpose has been to study how, and with what result and consequences, contested values, interests, rhetoric and powers are mobilized and made into dynamic forces for these stakeholders. Hence, this thesis gives a chronological presentation of selected issues and discussions, which have been taking place in the city from 1980 to 2012. The first subjects attended to are the 1980 earthquake and the nomination process which led to the inscription of Angra to the World Heritage List in 1983. However, some of the core objectives relate to the implications of living in a World Heritage City, given the preservation provisions which follow such a classified area. The aim has further been to assess the point of departure for the official monitors and their views on monitoring a vibrant historical area. The discussions analysed relate to the predicaments occurring when modern development is set up against preservation. However, the analyses show how policies and preservation ideals change, as well as how powers and authorities are challenged and affected by forces within and outside the "authorized heritage discourse". Finally, this study has assessed the notions of pride, local attachment and identity among the inhabitants in Angra. The World Heritage Status can trigger a double sense of feelings; on the one side it holds emotions related to pride and recognition, on the other it represents obstacles for living- and developing the city in accordance with the present needs. World Heritage and tourism are closely linked, and this investigation explores how the stakeholders in Angra relate to the possibilities and threats which tourism holds. Angra represents a site where there is a limited influx of tourist, and we can see how most stakeholders speak for a quality-based tourism. In this respect, one could say there is a prevailing consensus among the stakeholders. Finally, this study has assessed the notions of pride, local attachment and identity among the inhabitants in Angra. These sensations are related to the historical cityscape, an environment which also frames personal experiences and processes. The World Heritage Status can trigger a double sense of feelings; on the one side it holds emotions related to pride and recognition, on the other it represents obstacles for living- and developing the city in accordance with the present needs. Angra do Heroísmo is studied for its particularities, yet comparisons made with other studies reveal that the matters and aspects addressed in this thesis can be universal rather than particular. ; Avhandlingen er en kritisk kartlegging og analyse av tidligere og pågående diskusjoner, forhandlinger og sosiale prosesser som er relatert til det å leve i og forvalte verdensarvbyen Angra do Heroísmo på Asorene i Portugal. Basert på etnografisk feltarbeid og kvalitative intervjuer med for eksempel innbyggere, kulturminneforvaltningen, politikere og utviklere har formålet vært å forstå hvordan, og med hvilke konsekvenser, ulike verdier, retorikker, interesser og ressurser er mobilisert og gjort til drivende krefter for disse stakeholderne. Avhandlingen gir en kronologisk fremstilling av utvalgte tematikker og diskusjoner fra 1980 og frem til 2012, hvor de første temaene er knyttet til jordskjelvet som rammet byen i 1980, og den påfølgende nominasjonsprosessen til verdensarvlisten som ga Angra do Heroísmo verdensarvstatus i 1983. Et hovedanliggende for denne avhandlingen er problemstillinger knyttet til det å leve i en verdensarvby, med de restriksjoner som følger et klassifisert område. Videre har målet vært å studere myndighetenes- og kulturminnevernets ståsted og deres bevaringspolitikk. I skjæringspunktet mellom hensynet til bevaring og behovet for utvikling oppstår diskusjoner og forhandlinger, og avhandlingen analyserer utvalgte diskusjoner som hovedsakelig er knyttet til utbyggingsprosjekter. Studien viser imidlertid hvordan bevaringsidealer- og politikk endres, og likeledes hvordan myndigheter og autoriteter utfordres av krefter innenfor og utenfor 'the authorized heritage discourse'. Avslutningsvis gir avhandlingen en analyse av hvilken betydning verdensarvstatusen har for innbyggerne, noe som berører temaene identitet, stolthet og lokal tilknytning. Verdensarven har således en dobbeltsidig størrelse, som på den ene siden trigger følelser som stolthet og annerkjennelse, mens på den andre siden representerer begrensninger og diskusjoner.

Lange vor Baumans »Dialektik der Ordnung« war mir ein Text von Yvonne Hirdman in die Hände gefallen, als ich mich für ein Forschungsprojekt zum »social engineering« in die Forschungsliteratur zur schwedischen Geschichte und Gesellschaftspolitik einzulesen begann. Hirdman, Historikerin, hatte 1989 ein schlankes Buch mit dem aus dem Deutschen abgeleiteten Titel »Att lägga livet tillrätta« publiziert, »Das Leben zurechtlegen«.[1] Die Studie war im Rahmen einer Enquête entstanden, mit deren Hilfe der schwedische Staat sein eigenes Funktionieren untersuchte. Hirdman, die zehn Jahre zuvor eine Geschichte der Sozialdemokratie unter dem selbstsicheren Titel »Wir bauen das Land« verfasst hatte, hielt nun derselben sozialdemokratisch dominierten Gesellschaftspolitik vor, die Menschen systematisch übermächtigt zu haben.

Denne artikel omhandler livet som social- og sundhedshjælper i denoffentlige hjemmepleje. I et historisk og livsformsteoretisk perspektiv undersøger vihjemmeplejens tilblivelse og strukturering under skiftende politiske paradigmer medhenblik på at analysere arbejdets betydning for, om de ansatte kan praktisere deresforståelse af det gode liv.

Storskaliga kunskapsmätningar, såsom Programme for International Assessment, PISA, spelar en allt större roll i vår tids skolpraktik och skolpolitik. Samtidigt ifrågasätter alltfler forskare mätningarnas validitet, reliabilitet och i vilken utsträckning de utgör trovärdiga representationer av elevers kunskaper. I ljuset av sådana kritiska röster utgår denna artikel från ett sociokulturellt perspektiv med syftet att undersöka mötet mellan elever och de provfrågor i naturvetenskap som deras kunskaper utvärderas utifrån. I studien är det av särskilt intresse att undersöka hur elever hanterar uppgifter som beskriver "situationer från verkliga livet" (real-life situations) vilka vanligtvis presenteras som relevanta för att kunna mäta elevernas naturvetenskapliga allmänbildning. I enlighet med vår ansats har vi närmat oss elevernas meningskapande av naturvetenskap så som den framträder i uppgifterna. Ett viktigt fokus i studien är att undersöka situationer när elever samarbetar med PISA-uppgifter i små grupper, vilket möjliggör för oss att studera mötet mellan elev och prov in action. Datamaterialet består av videoinspelningar av 71 svenska 15-åringar som arbetar med tre frisläppta uppgifter från PISAs naturvetenskapliga del. Analysen visar att de "situationer från verkliga livet" som beskrivs i provet framstår som problematiska eftersom eleverna positionerar sig gentemot de fiktiva elever som framträder i provtexterna. Det är framförallt de fiktiva elevernas användning av ett naturvetenskapligt och akademiskt språkbruk som skapar avstånd och motstånd till uppgifterna. Användningen av ett strikt naturvetenskapligt språk och vetenskapliga metoder i vardagliga situationer får de fiktiva eleverna i uppgifterna att framstå som "små vetenskapsmän" och stereotyper i den naturvetenskapliga kulturen. Vi drar slutsatsen att denna typ av uppgifter egentligen riskerar att utgöra implicita mätningar av kulturell samstämmighet. Även om förståelse av den naturvetenskapliga kulturen är ett viktigt mål för skolans ...

Europæiske tilgange til fremme af grøn mobilitet og grønne rejsemønstre kræver bedre viden om de forskellige mobilitetskulturer på tværs af lande og regioner i EU. For at analysere forskellene inden for Europa grupperede vi en Eurobarometer stikprøve af EU's befolkning i otte segmenter baseret på deres mobilitetsmønstre, holdninger til transportmidler og miljøbevidsthed. Disse grupper – herunder for eksempel "grønne cyklister" og "komfortbilister" – adskiller sig ikke kun ved deres transportmiddelvalg, men også ved deres socioøkonomiske baggrund, IT-orientering og tilfredshed med livet. EU's 28 medlemslande blev efterfølgende inddelt i seks landegrupper baseret på mobilitetsgruppernes andel af befolkningen. Landegrupperne peger mod at der er væsentligt forskellige mobilitetskulturer inden for EU, der kræver tilsvarende forskellige politiske strategier og tilgange til bl.a. bæredygtig transport og adfærdsændringer.

Uncontainable Life: A Biophilosophy of Bioart investigates the ways in which thinking through the contemporary hybrid artistico-scientific practices of bioart is a biophilosophical practice, one that contributes to a more nuanced understanding of life than we encounter in mainstream academic discourse. When examined from a Deleuzian feminist perspective and in dialogue with contemporary bioscience, bioartistic projects reveal the inadequacy of asking about life's essence. They expose the enmeshment between the living and non-living, organic and inorganic, and, ultimately, life and death. Instead of examining the defining criteria of life, bioartistic practices explore and enact life as processual, differential, and always already uncontainable, thus transcending preconceived material and conceptual boundaries. In this way, this doctoral thesis concentrates on the ontology of life as it emerges through the selected bioartworks: "semi-living" sculptures created by The Tissue Culture and Art Project and the performance May the Horse Live in Me (2011) by L'Art Orienté Objet. The hope is that such an ontology can enable future conceptualisations of an ethico-politics that avoids the anthropocentric logic dominant in the humanities and social sciences. ; Otyglat liv: Biokonst och biofilosofi undersöker hur biofilosofisk praktik och biokonst, alltså tänkande genom samtida hybrida konstnärliga-vetenskapliga praktiker, kan bidra till en mer nyanserad förståelse av liv än vad vi vanligtvis möter i akademiska diskurser. Med utgångspunkt i ett feministiskt deleuzianskt perspektiv, och i dialog med samtida biovetenskap, pekar biokonstnärliga projekt på det otillräckliga i att ställa frågor om livets innehåll. Projekten tydliggör istället hur det levande och det icke-levande, det organiska och oorganiska, precis som liv och död, är sammanflätade. Istället för att sätta upp fasta kriterier för liv undersöker och framställer biokonstnärliga praktiker liv som en differentiell process, i sig omöjlig att fastställa och därmed något otyglat, som överskrider uppsatta gränser mellan det materiella och föreställda. Följaktligen fokuserar föreliggande avhandling på livets ontologi så som den framträder i ett urval av biokonstnärliga arbeten: "semi-levande" skulpturer skapade av The Tissue Culture and Art Project, samt performance-konstverket May the Horse Live in Me (2011) av L'Art Orienté Objet. Förhoppningen är att en sådan ontologi kan möjliggöra framtida begreppsliggöranden av en etisk politik som undviker den antropocentriska logik som dominerar humaniora och samhällsvetenskap idag.

The Cultural Politics of Jazz Collectives: This Is Our Music documents the emergence of collective movements in jazz and improvised music. Jazz history is most often portrayed as a site for individual expression and revolves around the celebration of iconic figures, while the networks and collaborations that enable the music to maintain and sustain its cultural status are surprisingly under-investigated. This collection explores the history of musician-led collectives and the ways in which they offer a powerful counter-model for rethinking jazz practices in the post-war period. It includes studies of groups including the New York Musicians Organization, Sweden's Ett minne för livet, Wonderbrass from South Wales, the contemporary Dutch jazz-hip hop scene, and Austria's JazzWerkstatt. With an international list of contributors and examples from Europe and the United States, these twelve essays and case studies examine issues of shared aesthetic vision, socioeconomic and political factors, local education, and cultural values among improvising musicians.

Även andra individer än rökaren kan påverkas av tobaksrökning. Syftet med denna avhandling var att undersöka några sådana effekter. Studierna omfattar såväl passiv rökning som exponering under graviditet. Mer specifikt handlar studierna om: · Exponering för passiv rökning under barndomen och samband med luftvägssymtom och allergi senare i livet. · Passiv rökning i vuxen ålder och samband med luftvägssymtom. · Exponering hos serveringspersonal och effekter av lagstiftning mot tobaksrökning. · Rökning under graviditet och kontroll och koordination av handrörelser hos barn. Passiv rökning i barndomen hade en koppling till ökad risk för astma och allergi. Passiv rökning hos vuxna var kopplat till förekomst av andnings- och luftvägssymtom på ett dosberoende vis. Besvär i andningsvägar och slemhinnor minskade avsevärt hos icke rökande serveringspersonal efter rökförbudet på restauranger som infördes den 1 juni 2005. Mammans rökning under graviditet var kopplad till nedsatt handkontroll och handkoordination hos avkomman. Sambandet var tydligast för vänsterhanden och pojkarnas handfunktion påverkades betydligt mer än flickornas. Fynden stödjer att rökning under graviditet kan påverka nervsystemets utveckling i negativ riktning. Ett flertal oönskade effekter kan således drabba dem som är nära rökare under någon period i livet och resultaten understryker vikten av att förebygga sådan exponering. ; Secondary exposure to inhaled tobacco products can influence the human body in a variety of ways. The aim of this thesis was to investigate a variety of health effects of secondary exposure to inhaled tobacco products. The research encompassed both airborne and in utero exposures. Specific investigations included: · Childhood exposure to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) and associations with respiratory symptoms and allergic sensitization. · Adult exposure to ETS and exacerbation of respiratory symptoms · Workplace exposure to ETS and associations with respiratory symptoms · The influence of smoke-free workplace legislation on respiratory symptoms · In utero exposure and associations with physical control and coordination at age 11 years Environmental tobacco smoke during childhood was shown to be associated with an increased risk of asthma and allergic sensitization. Environmental tobacco smoke exposure in adult non-smokers was associated with a dose-dependent increase in the prevalence of respiratory symptoms. The frequency of respiratory and sensory symptoms in hospitality workers declined substantially in non-smokers following the introduction of smoke-free legislation. Maternal smoking during pregnancy was associated with poorer physical control and coordination among offspring, particularly in the left – usually non-dominant- hand and most pronounced in boys, consistent with an adverse influence on neurological development. These findings help to characterize several adverse outcomes associated with secondary exposure to inhaled tobacco products and emphasise the importance of preventing such exposures.

Cet article fait suite au colloque "La désindustrialisation, une fatalité?" organisé par l'Académie François Bourdon en juin 2014 au Creusot. Il a été accepté pour être publié au sein des actes du colloque et ne peut être reproduit sans autorisation de l'auteur. ; Les problématiques liées à l'arrêt de sites productifs se posent de manière récurrente depuis maintenant plusieurs décennies. A défaut d'avoir permis l'émergence de nouvelles politiques industrielles à l'échelle nationale, cette longue durée offre la possibilité de revisiter l'impact des désindustrialisations à l'échelle locale. Les bassins d'activités touchés, entrainés dans un premier temps dans le cercle vicieux de la désertification économique et démographique, ont empruntés au fil des années des parcours d'une grande diversité. Les reconversions, subies ou choisies, renvoient à un large panel d'activités économiques qui reconfigurent de manière parfois très différentes les anciens sites productifs. Cette variabilité souligne ici le caractère territorialisé d'une désindustrialisation et questionne sur l'origine et la singularité de ces nouvelles dynamiques locales. L'étude croisée de territoires de l'aluminium offre, dans ce cadre, des perspectives intéressantes. Leur caractéristique montagnarde, comme le rappelle plusieurs travaux1, est synonyme d'hétérogénéité des territoires. Avec l'arrivée de l'aluminium dans les Alpes à la fin du XIXe, les lieux accueillant cette industrie se voient tous appliqués la même politique sociale d'entreprise. Peu à peu2, Péchiney homogénéise les différentes sociétés aluminières. Les particularismes locaux, loin de disparaitre au cours de cette période s'adaptent et se reconfigurent au contact de l'usine. Avec la vague de désindustrialisation des années 1980-90, l'organisation économique et sociale locale développée au cours des décennies précédentes s'effondre. Les anciens sites Péchiney s'orientent peu à peu vers des trajectoires variées comme l'illustre le cas de Livet-et-Gavet en Isère (Usine de Riouéproux) et celui de l'Argentière-La Bessée dans les Hautes-Alpes (Usine de l'Argentière). Le premier est toujours un territoire industriel. Bien qu'il bénéficie de son fort potentiel hydroélectrique et connaisse aujourd'hui un grand chantier de modernisation de ces centrales, sa démographie et son économie n'ont pas retrouvé le dynamisme des années d'après-guerre. Le second a un parcours différent et pour le moins atypique. Il s'est reconverti par le patrimoine industriel et le sport dans le tourisme culturel et de nature. La commune a ainsi réussi à relancer l'activité économique locale et est redevenue attractive. Nous allons tenter au travers d'une brève analyse croisée de ces deux cas d'appréhender certains des mécanismes particularisants à l'oeuvre à l'Argentière-La Bessée et à Livet-et-Gavet depuis le départ de l'usine. La réflexion s'appuiera sur les dernières statistiques publiques de l'INSEE par commune et sur des éléments de contexte historique et géographique spécifiques à chacun des deux territoires.
