  • Elly's Notes on a Trip to Norway and Sweden in May 2013
    Elly’s notes on a trip to Norway and Sweden in May 2013 I was fortunate to be invited to be an opponent for a PhD defense in Trondheim, Norway. Reading the dissertation made me think a lot more about some linguistic issues but the trip was also a wonderful opportunity to see where friends had moved to and to connect with linguists I had known before in both Trondheim and Oslo. Trondheim is a beautiful city with lots of old warehouses. I had been there many, many years ago and remembered the warehouses in the evening light. The city is situated along a fjord with interesting modern art museums and an old cathedral. Had lovely meals at the Mikrobryggeri, Baklandet Skydsstation, and Havfruen. Gamle Bybru Håkon Gullvåg collection at the hotel Had a great walk with a friend along the fjord on Saturday morning with gorgeous weather! See below! Fjord in Trondheim Remnants of WW II After being in Trondheim and Oslo, it was great to visit a Norwegian linguist/friend in Eidsvoll, a little north of Oslo’s airport Gardermoen. After that visit on Sunday, I drove south to Sweden because I had always wanted to see the rock carvings (hällristningar) around Tanumshede in Bohuslän. The Vitlyckehällen include many ships, people, footsteps (of gods), cupmarks, and the wedding couple. Many possible images are absent, e.g. children, houses, and fish. The images of boats have been argued to go back to pre‐Indo European times. Above the rock carvings at Vitlycke, there are two cairns (röstenar in Swedish).

  • Norell, Värmland Och Karlstad – Struktur, Finanser Och Förutsättningar
    VÄRMLAND OCH KARLSTAD - STRUKTUR, FINANSER OCH FÖRUTSÄTTNINGAR FÖR POLITIK PO NORELL "En mycket positiv trend utifrånvår vision, livskvalitet Karlstad100 000, har varit att vi under de senaste åren lyckats höja den genomsnittliga nivån på befolkningsiikningen. Under 2010 ökade befolkningenmed över 1 000 personer vilket med undantagfor 1994 (forklarasdelvis av storflyktinginvandring och ändradefolkbokfiiringsregler) aldrig hänt tidigare. En annan gräns på 1 000 personer överträffas också nämligen antalet nyfodda, vilket inte skettsedan "baby-boomen" kring 1990. För Karlstads och regionensdel är det nödvändigt att vi klarar av konkurrensen om framtidens medborgare om vi skallfort­ sätta att utvecklasoch attrahera nya foretagoch god samhä!lsservice"(Karlstadskommuns årsredovisning for2010:10). Detta är en bild av den verklighet som en värmländsk kommun målar upp. Den är inre typisk för värmländska eller för svenska kommuner. Tvärtom brottas de flestamed de problem som följer av en åldrande och minskande befolkning. Det är knappast heller ovanligt att det i dessa skillnader - mellan den expansiva och andra - finns ettfrö till motsättning. I ett nationellt eller ett regionalt prioriteringssam­ manhang finns en spänning mellan att stödja den strukturellt svagare och att göra den starke starkare. Det senare utifrån tanken att ett riktigt blomstrande regionalt centrum också skapar bättre förutsättningar för ett omland. Samtidigt är de allra flesta, sannolikt, överens om att det finns starka ömsesidiga beroendeförhållanden mellan kommuner i en region: alla stärks av att det går bra också för andra. Region Värmland (2009) har antagit ett regionalt urvecklingsprogram med titeln "Värm­ landväxer och känner inga gränser, 2009-2013". Detta har, som framgår av titeln, ett offensivtanslag. Fokus ligger mera på möjligheter än på begränsningar.

Degerfors, Gruvön, and Slottsbron bands are three corps that still operates concerts and performances. The other three unions are defunct. In Värmland, there were many mills that were operating well into the 1900s, roughly speaking there were about 25 mills in various industrial areas. These mills had operations in glass, iron, and paper, each user had a band at least a brass sextet and today there are only eight bands left in Värmland. Bofors in Karlskoga, Charlottenberg, Degerfors, Dejefors, Gruvöns in Grums, Hagfors, Skoghall, and Slottsbron bands. What is the reason that so many bands have disappeared? To answer the question I have investigated the importance of four factors have had for the unions: finance, recruitment collaboration with the music and arts, as well as cooperation with educational associations. The results show a marked reduction in civil bands, from about 25 corps to eight corps today. Factors economy, recruiting, music and culture schools had a great importance and study associations only had a certain importance. Conclusion is if bands do not get financial support in order to conduct business, do not have interaction with music culture schools, because recruitment is done here today.

Analyses of busi- ness clusters and the importance of regions as well as knowledge flows through both local and global networks stand central in our theoretical work as CSC works in a trans-disciplin- ary tradition involving theories from Strategy, Management, Economic Geography, Eco- nomic Sociology and Economic History. At CSC we both apply and develop our theoretical models to investigate the determinants of competitiveness and economic development from a bottom up, microeconomic perspective. More information on CSC is available on the internet (www.sse.edu/csc).
