The previous report from the Division of History of Science, Technology and Environment at KTH covered the years from “We have called the 2012 to 2014. It followed a sequence of annual reports since the report Transformative early 1990s. This shift in the reporting period was unintended. The changes at the Division were profound enough to divert our Humanities. This attention from making an annual report, and we also changed our style of reporting to give more flavor to what is actually going on is to indicate that in our environment for research and PhD training, societal collab- oration and undergraduate teaching.

The intensity of academic work does not always allow for reflec- tion. Writing an annual report is therefore a welcome time to revis- it the near past. The years 2015 and 2016 were filled with events, scholarship, training, collaboration and strategic thinking. We grew both in numbers of employees and in turnover, and we expanded in scope with new research projects and international PhDs.

Through the years we have had one common higher seminar where we critically and constructively discussed each other’s texts. This created a truly interdisciplinary research environment, which has gradually become broader, in- cluding environmental history and environmental humanities. Sverker Sörlin and Marco Armiero have been decisive for this broadening. Another characteristic is a pronounced international orienta- tion that is unusual for humanities departments in Sweden. Rep- resenting small, new academic fields we almost had to connect with colleagues abroad as we had rather few in Sweden. From the

The Division has been an internationally-oriented environ- ment from the beginning, with our scholars frequently pre- senting at conferences and going on stints abroad. In the last few years, the Division has also become an international place in and of itself. Gradually since the beginning of this decade, the Division’s working language has become English in order to maintain a working and sharing community among all our staff. This also helps to accommodate our growing numbers of visiting and guest scholars who frequently come from outside the Nordic countries. Integration of postdocs and new PhD stu- dents from other countries is also easier. Internal diversity has grown significantly. At the beginning of 2017, fifty percent of our staff was born outside of Sweden. They represent 14 nation- alities and speak a very large number of languages, which are also used outside of the lunch room. “Research has shown for a long time that some concentration in the 30 to 40 and 40 to 50 brackets.

We have devel- oped two major research film projects (see One Table Two Elephants); a collaboration between Konstfack and KTH that explores the borderland between design, art and ecology; and two edited book volumes (Grounding Urban Natures and Urban Political Ecologies in the Anthropo-Obscene).

The Platform has also nurtured the creation of a sub-field that uses postcolonial theory to understand the realities of urbanization in the global South, called Situated Urban Politi- cal Ecology. Across other vibrant collaborations, the Situated Ecologies Platform celebrates texture, richness, immersive outputs, and multiple theoretical viewpoints to understand ecology. We proudly contribute to the growing Environmental Humanities field.

The Division started as a small unit focusing on undergraduate teaching for KTH engineering students. A chair in the History of Technology was established in 1989, and a PhD program start- ed in 1992. The Division by then already included some History of Science (also in its name).

We are proud that in a few instances fellow scholars have asked our support to build environmental humanities in their own countries such as with the Swiss hub in Zürich and with the Department of History at Shiv Nadar University in India. The EHL started activities as an experimental project in early 2012 with a life span of six years. Today, the EHL is an established and appreciated academic institution which will stay. It has been endowed with Carl Bennet’s generous donation, but it has also shown its ability to attract more funds: from the EU (e.g. the ITN Marie Curie ENHANCE project and the Horizon2020 CLISEL project), from the Swedish agency Formas, and from numerous smaller grants, all of which demonstrate the vitality of the lab and Undisciplining the its potentialities.

Inevitably, the large share of external funding brings an un- even development of research areas. Part of the strategic work is to balance the uneven growth with reallocations of core funding to maintain essential research lines and pro-active initiatives to build links between old and new research areas. A growing concern is the declining ratio between core fund- ing and external/performance based funding. In 2015 only 20% of our research spending came from core KTH funds. Moreover, from this percentage almost half was used for co-funding external projects. This issue is further complicated by the fact that we do not have much stabilizing income from undergraduate teaching. Navigating these challenges will be a major strategic concern in the next few years. Picture from poster by Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions – Research Fellowship Programme.

During 2015 and 2016, the Division offered five first-cycle (ba- students, which relates sic) and five second-cycle (advanced) courses. Six of the courses were taught in English and four in Swedish.

In this project, researchers from KTH cooperate with scholars from Dalarnas Högskola, using approaches from industrial and cultural heritage studies in addition to history and archeology to understand the conditions under which Arctic mining legacies become particular resources for local communities. Through field studies, archive work and interviews with stakeholders, we explore how even the most physically resistant mining legacies are constantly open for reinterpretation by different groups and thus able to support different visions for the future of local communities.

In this research project researchers from KTH and Stockholm University cooperate to explore how communities in the Arctic can handle the material and immaterial legacies of mining when building post-industrial futures. We use approaches from industrial and cultural heritage studies, history, archaeology, and physical geography to understand how communities can deal with legacies of mining – societal as well as environmental. Through field research, archive work and interviews with stakeholders, we explore how even the most physically resistant mining legacies are constantly open for reinterpretation by different groups and thus able to support different visions for the future of local communities. With mining in the Arctic as a subject of intense contemporary debate and the future of mining communities in Norrbotten under considerable scrutiny, lessons from around the Arctic can help inform responsible decision-making.
