LUND UNIVERSITY PO Box 117 221 00 Lund +46 46-222 00 00 STUDIA HISTORICA LUNDENSIA STUDIA HISTORICA LUNDENSIA Between Utopia and Home Travel accounts are considered windows to the unknown, ways to experience something new. Yet at the same time the accounts are oddly familiar, raising questions on how limited the genre is, on how much is brought along from ’home’ and how much we can learn about this ’home’ rather than the expected unknown. This is a study of anti-colonial travel accounts from different parts of the world outside Europe, loosely described as the ‘Third World’. They were written by radical and modernist intellectuals who left Sweden and Europe in order to report back on their experiences and impressions. These intellectuals offered descriptions of poverty, oppression, social injustice, and racism, but also of change, hope, and development. Many of the travel books they produced were soon considered EDMAN AGNETA significant in the radicalization process that unfolded in the post-war years and peaked at the end of the sixties. There are, however, instances where these critical and anti- Between Utopia and Home colonial travel books disclose complex ties to expressions of SWEDISH RADICAL TRAVEL WRITING 1947–1966 European privilege and power, of a colonial discourse. This becomes an area even more worthy of study given the Agneta Edman tendency in the post-war years among Swedish politicians to emphasize Sweden’s supposed ‘innocence’, having not partaken in the European scramble for the rest of the world. The objective of this book is therefore to describe the accounts’ relationship with a culture of colonialism, but also to recognize the anti-colonial critique and the attempts to picture a different future.

A lot of it has passed since I wrote a paper on Göran Palm in literary history and my teacher professor Lisbeth Larsson told me that I perhaps did not have it in me to become a literary historian, but that the paper was original and interesting. I developed these ideas in a BA thesis at the Department of History in Lund, and one day in June 1996, Kim Salomon, professor of interna- tional history, gave me a call and suggested that I stay on and write a dissertation on the subject. Thank you Lisbeth and Kim for believing in this project, and in me. You changed everything. Apart from a couple of years in Lund, I have spent a significant part of my time as a PhD student at the European University Institute in San Domenico di Fiesole, at the Department of History and Civilization. I owe a great deal to Professor Luisa Passerini, my supervisor, whose intellectual bravery has been an inspiration. I would also like to thank Professor Bo Stråth for his generosity with ideas and support. My years at EUI were financed by Vetenskapsrådet. Thank you. And so another theme in this book, ‘life’, got in the way of my work. I did other things for quite some time, and I do not regret any of them for a moment. I am, however, grateful to Kim Salomon for welcoming me back and giving me a new chance to finish this project. Professor Lars Edgren, my supervisor, and Professor Ulf Zander have since taken me under their wings and both have contributed sig- nificantly to the renewal of my project. Thank you Lars for pushing me, for posing the right questions. Pegasus is there, only for you! And Ulf, from a fellow PhD student to a professor, you have been, are, and always will be the best reader. Thank you for pointing out which darlings to kill and which to develop, much for the bet- ter. Thank you also to Mikela Lundahl of the Department of Global Studies at University of Gothenburg who spent time and effort helping me develop this project by acting as the opponent at my final seminar. Professors aside, there are many former colleagues I would like to thank for their input, ideas, laughter, and support. Kim Salomon’s international history seminar was a great constellation in time and space. I would particularly like to mention Lina Sturfelt, Marie Cronqvist, Rouzbeh Parsi, Stefan Nordqvist, and Andreas Linderoth. Lina especially has remained a good friend, along with Markus. Thank you dearly, 7 Acknowledgements says Samwise. Others I would like to mention are Charlotte Tornbjer, Lars M An- dersson, Rune Johansson, Maria Småberg, Irene Andersson, and Anna Jansdotter. Anna, who sadly is no longer with us, was a tower of strength who I could always turn to, and I will always miss her. From my time at EUI, I would like to thank Katarina Andersson, who took us to the best bars and made sure I had somewhere to live, and Lorand Bartels for friendship and/or wine. I would like to mention Ja- mes Kaye as well. He was always a great friend, and I miss him and his sense of adventure and beauty. Also, thank you Sara Kärrholm, Lena Malmborg, yet another friend and colleague who unfortunately is gone, Charlotta Johansson, and Håkan Arvidsson for our cooperation in the research project ‘Kalla krigets berättelser’, fi- nanced by the Axel and Margaret Ax:son Johnson Foundation and led by Kim Sa- lomon, Lisbeth Larsson, and Håkan. As I left academia for the publishing business, I have had the honour to work with fantastic people. Thank you Carina Markström, Carin Laurin, Ulf Wagner, Cecilia Kraitiss, Joanna Hintze, Sanna Lundberg, Lena Englund, Ingvild Christoffersen, Åsa Hoff, Ingrid Westman, and Anja Hellmark. I would also like to thank Tina Mattsson of the School of Social Work in Lund for reading the manuscript at an early stage and providing inspiration and support when it was sorely needed. You are truly the best. Other colleagues and friends in the business have not only kept me sane and laughing through tough times, they have helped me with practical matters as well: thank you Charlotte Merton for making me more English than I am, and thank you Johan Laserna for the beautiful cover design. Pas de pjoller, non? Getting closer to home, I would like to mention Mariana Andersson, who is my fellow traveller in life. We never faff around, we get to the point in less than ten seconds. Another fellow traveller is Martin Wiklund, once a colleague, now a close friend. Without him and his support, I never would have finished this book. I owe you so much. And Katarina Bohlin, who brings so much love, light, and laughter along with her. Thank you, dear! So, now I have reached the inner circle of my life. I would like to thank my dear parents, Kurt and Birgitta Edman, for their never-ending faith and support. And my darling sister, Gunilla Edman, for always being my soldier, always.

  • Pressdebatten Om Vietnam Sommaren 1965
    Pressdebatten om Vietnam sommaren 1965 Förord Sommaren 1965 flammade det upp en debatt om Vietnamkriget i den svenska pressen, där många författare, ledarskribenter och politiker deltog, de flesta kritiska mot den amerikanska Vietnam-politiken. Denna debatt spelade en viktig opinionsbildande roll, såtillvida att den okritiskt USA-vänliga hållning som hittills hade dominerat den svenska opinionen härmed fick en ordentlig törn. Den USA-kritiska opinionen skulle de kommande åren att förstärkas och fördjupas, inte minst därför att USA satsade allt större resurser på att upptrappa sin närvaro och krigföring i Indokina. Pressdebatten sommaren 1965 fungerade som en väckarklocka, den öppnade ögonen på många och bidrog till att människor kunde lösgöra sig från den närmast naiva pro-amerikanism som dittills dominerat den svenska opinionen efter andra världskriget. Nedan har vi samlat de viktigaste debattinläggen från sommaren 1965.

  • Om Ikonoklasmen Hos Birgitta Trotzig
    Studia Litteraria Universitatis Iagellonicae Cracoviensis 10 (2015), z. 4, s. 275–297 doi:10.4467/20843933ST.15.025.4584 www.ejournals.eu/Studia-Litteraria zeszyt 4 KRZYSZTOF BAK Uniwersytet Jagielloński w Krakowie e-mail: [email protected] Om ikonoklasmen hos Birgitta Trotzig Abstract On Brigitta Trotzig’s Notion of Iconoclasm The Swedish writer Birgitta Trotzig (1928–2011) defi nes her own process of literary creation in interart terms as a translation of pictures into verbal signs. She often comments on the in- tersemiotic diffi culties involved in this transformation by referring to the Byzantine iconoclas- tic controversy. Using Trotzig’s notion of the iconoclastic controversy as a starting point, the present article investigates her understanding of the picture-word-transformation problems. The line of argument comprises fi ve stages. In the fi rst stage, the main issue of the article is presented and specifi ed. In the second stage, it is argued that previous critical approaches to Trotzig’s Byzantinism in most cases have been based on misleadingly anachronistic and mainly Occidental categories. In the third stage, the Byzantine iconoclastic controversy is related to the distinctive character of the theological thought of the Eastern Church. In the fourth stage, the Byzantine iconophile and iconoclast theories are applied to Trotzig’s literary works. A close reading of a representative prose poem of hers, “Teologiska variationer” (“Theological vari- ations”), demonstrates that her works unequivocally support the icon theology of the icono- dules. In the closing fi fth stage, Trotzig’s notion of the Byzantine iconoclastic controversy is reconstructed on the basis of her essays and interviews in which she explains her own as well as other authors’ intersemiotic diffi culties.

Part 2: Socialist Iconography, 1848–1952 innehåll / contents Abstract: This is Part 2 of a two-part study which aims at preliminary conclusions re- garding the iconography of the international labour movement. Earlier research in the Förord / Editorial 3 fields of social history, art history and visual rhetorics has been consulted for this pur- pose. After 1848, emerging socialist parties and labour unions depended on republican Søren Kaspersen “Quale sit intus in his” – A Note about Abbot Suger's 9 iconography for their manifestation of collective identity. The republican virtues of Bronze Doors in Saint-Denis Liberty, Equality and Fraternity remained important, but Fraternity was gradually re- placed or merged with Unity and Solidarity. In a process akin to the identification of Anders Ödman the goddess of Liberty with a more common “Marianne”, the representation of Unity Östra Sallerups kyrka i Frosta härad, Skåne: 27 and manual work in socialist iconography became focused on images of individual kolonisation och kulturella kontakter male or female workers. In earlier prints and illustrations, these representations have Ragnhild M.

Anita Judith Ogurlu 16 February 2016 2 Abstract This thesis examines the life and work of a little-known interwar period German writer Lilo Linke. Documenting individual and social evolution across three continents, her self-reflexive and autobiographical narratives are like conversations with readers in the hope of facilitating progressive change. With little tertiary education, as a self-fashioned practitioner prior to the emergence of cultural studies, Linke’s everyday experiences constitute ‘experiential learning’ (John Dewey). Rejecting her Nazi-leaning family, through ‘fortunate encounter[s]’ (Goethe) she became critical of Weimar and cultivated hope by imagining and working to become a better person, what Ernst Bloch called Vor-Schein. Linke’s ‘instinct of workmanship’, ‘parental bent’ and ‘idle curiosity’ was grounded in her inherent ‘spirit of insubordination’, terms borrowed from Thorstein Veblen.

    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS UPSALIENSIS Studia Historica Upsaliensia 210 Utgivna av Historiska institutionen vid Uppsala universitet genom Torkel Jansson, Jan Lindegren och Maria Ågren 1 2 David Ludvigsson The Historian-Filmmaker’s Dilemma Historical Documentaries in Sweden in the Era of Häger and Villius 3 Dissertation in History for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy presented at Uppsala University in 2003 ABSTRACT Ludvigsson, David, 2003: The Historian-Filmmaker’s Dilemma. Historical Documentaries in Sweden in the Era of Häger and Villius. Written in English. Acta Universitatis Upsalien- sis. Studia Historica Upsaliensia 210. (411 pages). Uppsala 2003. ISSN 0081-6531. ISBN 91-554-5782-7. This dissertation investigates how history is used in historical documentary films, and ar- gues that the maker of such films constantly negotiates between cognitive, moral, and aes- thetic demands. In support of this contention a number of historical documentaries by Swedish historian-filmmakers Olle Häger and Hans Villius are discussed. Other historical documentaries supply additional examples. The analyses take into account both the produc- tion process and the representations themselves. The history culture and the social field of history production together form the conceptual framework for the study, and one of the aims is to analyse the role of professional historians in public life. The analyses show that different considerations compete and work together in the case of all documentaries, and figure at all stages of pre-production, production, and post-produc- tion. But different considerations have particular inuence at different stages in the produc- tion process and thus they are more or less important depending on where in the process the producer puts his emphasis on them.

  • Travelling Along the Third Way. a Swedish Model of Stabilisation, Equity and Growth*
    Travelling Along the Third Way. A Swedish Model of Stabilisation, Equity and Growth* ♣ Lennart Erixon (December, 2005) Department of Economics, Stockholm University, 106 91 Stockholm, Sweden _____________________________________________________________________ Abstract The Swedish economic policy to combine full employment and equity with price stability and economic growth was developed by two trade union economists shortly after World War II. Through the use of extensive employment policy measures, a tight fiscal policy and a wage policy of solidarity, the Rehn-Meidner model represents a unique third way between Keynesianism and monetarism. This essay analyses the application and performance of the Rehn-Meidner model in Sweden. Although never consistently applied, it is possible to distinguish a golden age for the model from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. In the 1970s and the 1980s, governments abandoned the restrictive macroeconomic means of the model and were thus unable to combine low rates of unemployment with low inflation and high economic growth. Since the early 1990s, Sweden has not met the requirement of full employment in the Rehn-Meidner model. Recent declarations by the EU to prioritise full employment once again but without giving up the objectives of price stability and growth legitimise a renewed interest in the model. __________________ JEL classification : E24; E31; E62; J23; J31; J62; O23 Keywords : Swedish model; Rehn-Meidner model; third way; labour market policy; solidarity wage policy; productivity growth, fiscal policy; unemployment; inflation Contact author: Lennart Erixon, Department of Economics, Stockholm University.

  • An Appeal About China
    Open Letter To Mr Hu Jintao President of the People’s Republic of China An Appeal about China Your Excellency, Mr President, We, undersigned organizations and individuals, welcome your visit to Sweden, whose purpose, we understand, is to reinforce economic and political cooperation between China and Sweden. We also realize that you want to contribute to a fruitful exchange of cultural activities and ideas between our countries. In this context we wish to express our sincere desire for the development of a vivid cooperation concerning thoughts, values, art, theatre, music, all kinds of creative human contacts between Sweden and China, the world’s largest nation, with an unbroken history and culture of many thousand years. We are convinced that economic cooperation between countries and people cannot be successful in the long run unless there is a deeper understanding, involving a free flow of information and thought between the countries and within them. In this regard we must draw attention to an imbalance. We are worried by the information that reaches us concerning the rule of law and human rights in your country. What particularly concerns us is the actual lack of freedom of expression, publication, association, religion and information in China. Despite a well-conceived Constitution and several special regulations concerning media, religion and civil law, the factual rule of law in your country does not seem to be ensured in a satisfactory manner. The authorities themselves do not follow the laws properly, according to many reports. Numerous citizens are exposed to legal abuses of different kinds. Full and detailed reports about these serious conditions have been spread inside as well as outside China.

INTRODUCTION Until 1985, when Darrel Frost published the Catalogue of the Amphibians Species of de World, no comprehensive list of amphibians of Peru existed. Now, Rodriguez et al . (1993) have plublished a preliminary list of Amphibians from Peru with species distribution in ecological regions. Herein, I list all the species of amphibians reported from Peru and annotations on some species listed for Rodriguez et al . (op. cit.).
