Abstract Woube, A. 2014. Finding One’s Place. An Ethnological Study of Belonging among Swedish Migrants on the Costa del Sol in Spain. Etnolore 35. 209 pp. Uppsala: Institutionen för kul- turantropologi och etnologi, Uppsala universitet. ISBN 978-91-506-2424-3. This study explores how Swedish migrants on the Costa del Sol in Spain create belonging and how this is expressed in migration stories and practiced in the daily life. The migrants are part of a migration phenomenon that is conceptualized as lifestyle migration, often to destinations in association with tourism and leisure. Based on ethnographical fieldwork carried out among Swedish migrants within the Swedish infrastructure of institutions, organizations and private enterprises on the Costa del Sol, the thesis examines how belonging is created adopting a phenomenological and constructivist perspective on transnational and diasporic practices. This is accomplished through studying migration stories, where the migration experience is being told, structured and made meaningful for the migrants. In addition, it focuses on internal and external identification and positioning on location on the Costa del Sol. Another concern is the study of how the migrants relate to notions and practices of new home, and old home. The thesis presents how belonging is shaped on a collective basis within the Swedish infra- structure, despite the fact that the interviewees make up a diverse group in different ages, with different reasons for dwelling along the coast, with different migrant experiences, with differ- ent approaches to living a transnational migrant life in-between the old and the new country, and with different degrees and range of incorporation to the local society. The study shows how a transnational position is created with a plurilocal frame of reference. It is marked by simultaneously expressing attachments and affiliations to several localities and contexts across territorial borders, shaped by past and recurrent travels and communication, and con- nected to the Swedish diasporic collective that can function as a compensatory source of national affiliation for the Swedish migrants on the Costa del Sol.

    Bilderna av Kent 10/13/03 8:13 Volume 6 (2003) © Lars Lilliestam, 2003 Bilderna av Kent En fallstudie av musikjournalistik, autenticitet och musikmytologi Lars Lilliestam INLEDNING [1] Musik och berättande Musik är mer än bara musik. Musik är mer än det som klingar. Vi hör alltid musik genom filter av förförståelse, förväntningar, fördomar eller kunskaper. Om man vill försöka förstå vilken verkan musik har och vad den betyder för människor, måste man ta i beaktande vad människor berättar om musiken. Berättandet – vad som skrivs om musik och hur människor talar om musik – laddar musiken med föreställningar, ideologier, värden. Mening uppstår när musiken, människan och berättelserna om musiken möts. Vi tänker, talar eller läser om musik för att bearbeta och jämföra våra egna upplevelser med andras. Genom denna process skapar och utvecklar vi en inre bild av musiken och upplevelsen av den. Berättelser om musiker, musikskapare, musikverk eller låtar, gåtor och oklarheter i verks historia, uttolkningar, tragiska eller på annat sätt fascinerande och gripande levnadsöden och skandaler färgar upplevelsen av musiken. Tänk på historierna om Beethovens dövhet, skandalerna vid premiären av Stravinskijs Våroffer 1913, Bob Dylans framträdande vid Newport Folk Festival 1965, eller mysteriet kring bluessångerskan Bessie Smiths död... Kring artister och genrer spinns en samling berättelser och anekdoter (skrönor, myter, legender) av olika slag – ett narrativ. Dessa berättelser sprids i olika former (intervjuer, reportage, biografier, historiska översikter, recensioner, krönikor) i olika medier (fack- och dagspress, böcker, tv, radio, internet) och muntligen man och man emellan i ett komplicerat och näst intill oöverblickbart spel. Vissa berättelser kan vara skapade av exempelvis ett skivbolag i syfte att understryka en viss image, andra har sitt upphov bland publik, fans eller skribenter.

Efter att ha färdigställd de tre låtarna har jag skickat in dem till A&R-tjänsten Taxi för att få feedback på låtarna. Därefter har jag analyserat och reflekterat över hur jag gått tillväga och hur jag har förhållit mig till leadets ramar samt jämfört mina egna låtar med leadet och referenslåtarna. I och med att jag valde att skriva tre låtar ifrån olika leads kunde jag reflektera över vilka tillvägagångssätt man bör använda sig av, hur genre påverkar resultatet och hur viktigt det är att analysera både leadet och referenslåtarna i förväg.

UPF JOURNAL OF WORLD HISTORY Barcelona ﺍ Universitat Pompeu Fabra Número 6 (juny 2014) www.entremons.org The Unsettled Debate: Monarchy and Republic in Spain and Greece in the Interwar Years* Enric UCELAY-DA CAL (Universitat Pompeu Fabra) abstract The following essay examines the political development in Spain and Greece between the World War I and World War II, comparing these two Mediterranean countries and placing them in a broader European and global context. The conflict between the supporters of monarchy and republic as forms of government was extremely important in the political debate in both countries, and shaped their history in a quite remarkable way. The discussion of these intricate dynamics will help to appreciate the problems that Spain and Greece faced at that time, and can also contribute to a deeper understanding of some key features of the historical change in these two countries. resumen El siguiente ensayo examina el desarrollo político en España y Grecia en el período entre la Primera y la Segunda Guerra Mundial, comparando estos dos países mediterráneos y situándolos en un contexto europeo y global más amplio. El conflicto entre los partidarios de la monarquía y la república como formas de gobierno fue muy importante en el debate político de ambos países, influyendo en su historia de una manera muy notable. La discusión de estas dinámicas complicadas ayudará a apreciar mejor los problemas a los que España y Grecia se enfrentaban en ese momento, contribuyendo asimismo a una comprensión más profunda de algunas de las características clave del cambio histórico en estos dos países.

  • Ängel. Sis Unga Berättar 2011
    SiS unga berättar 2011 …och andra texter av unga på SiS särskilda ungdomshem Grafisk form och tryck: Intellecta 2011 Förord I ”Ängel” är alla texter skrivna av unga som är intagna på SiS särskilda ungdomshem. Att ge ut antologier med ungdomarnas egna röster har blivit en tradition, det här är den sjunde boken i sitt slag. Som vanligt har intresset för att bidra varit stort. Boken innehåller inte mindre än 93 texter som skiljer sig åt, både i form och i innehåll. Vissa är långa noveller, andra består bara av några få rader. Ibland är texterna fulla av längtan efter föräldrar och kompisar som finns kvar hemma, långt från institutionen. Ibland är de arga och besvikna på vuxna som inte verkar förstå hur det är att vara tvångsomhändertagen. Alla texter är viktiga, för de är ungdomarnas egna. Och de är ofta fulla av en tro på att det trots allt kan bli bättre. Så här avslutar ”Mikaela” sitt bidrag: Det finns ett hopp, och alla har en framtid att längta till. Mitt liv är nu. Jag har människor omkring mig som bryr sig. Allt är spännande, uppmanande och så levande, man vill ju se mer. Jag är en människa…och jag är värdefull. Vissa texter i ”Ängel” är starka och innehåller ett grovt språk. I några enstaka förekommer tal om droger. Vi har valt att ha med även de bidragen eftersom de ger en bild av den värld ungdomarna lever i. Någon drogromantik eller något för­­här­ ligande av svordomar handlar det självklart inte om.

The cardinal symptoms are excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy, hypnagogic and hypnopompic hallucinations sleep paralysis and disturbed nighttime sleep. The purpose of this thesis was to study a population-based cohort of children and adolescents with narcolepsy in western Sweden to determine the incidence and relationship with the H1N1 influenza vaccination, psychiatric comorbidity, cognitive profile, health-related quality of life, adaptive behavior and parenting stress. Methods: We aimed to identify all individuals below 18 years of age who developed narcolepsy between January 1, 2000, and December 31, 2010. Post-H1N1 influenza vaccination (PHV) narcolepsy was considered in patients with clinical onset within 10 months of vaccination. Psychiatric comorbidity was investigated using a test battery of semi-structured interviews and screening tools.

  • Muslim Women's Pilgrimage to Mecca and Beyond
    Muslim Women’s Pilgrimage to Mecca and Beyond This book investigates female Muslims pilgrimage practices and how these relate to women’s mobility, social relations, identities, and the power struc- tures that shape women’s lives. Bringing together scholars from different disciplines and regional expertise, it offers in-depth investigation of the gendered dimensions of Muslim pilgrimage and the life-worlds of female pilgrims. With a variety of case studies, the contributors explore the expe- riences of female pilgrims to Mecca and other pilgrimage sites, and how these are embedded in historical and current contexts of globalisation and transnational mobility. This volume will be relevant to a broad audience of researchers across pilgrimage, gender, religious, and Islamic studies. Marjo Buitelaar is an anthropologist and Professor of Contemporary Islam at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands. She is programme-leader of the research project ‘Modern Articulations of Pilgrimage to Mecca’, funded by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). Manja Stephan-Emmrich is Professor of Transregional Central Asian Stud- ies, with a special focus on Islam and migration, at the Institute for Asian and African Studies at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany, and a socio-cultural anthropologist.

BLACKNESS Rising up WE HEAR: The sound of a boy’s panting while he runs. His footsteps crunching. Faster and faster, louder and louder. SUDDENLY - 1 EXT. SNOWY MINNESOTA WOODS - 1977 - NIGHT 1 The roar of some terrifying creature. We are close to the BOY, age twelve, racing through the snowy dark. He is terrified. He manages to glance back behind him. In a shaky dark swirl we catch glimpses of what appear to be animals, black against the blue snow, chasing after him. In a glimpse of light their eyes flash, revealing TWO WOLVES - tearing through the moonlit woods. The boy tries desperately to pick up speed, dodging fallen limbs and rocks along his way. Strangely, he’s barefoot, in a thin tank-top and pajama bottoms, running through a dark, eerie landscape. Up ahead he sees a way to veer off from the path and dip down along an incline. He takes the turn, tearing through brush as he descends along the side of a hill into a slight recess, hoping to drop out of sight. Through the black mesh of trees he spots the wolves running past.
