Ethnologia Scandinavica Ethnologia Scandinavica National identification, fashion and heritage, health and medicine, and rural heritage are the themes that build the foundation of this volume of Ethnologia Scandinavica. Together with reviews of books and dissertations, this issue shows what is going on today in Nordic ethnology. Besides empirical themes we get examples of how ethnologists affect their field of interest in ethical and/ or political respects, as part of a methodology, and through the effects of the findings they present. 2016 Ethnologia Scandinavica A JOURNAL FOR NORDIC ETHNOLOGY Printed in Sweden Textgruppen i Uppsala AB 2016 ISSN 0348-9698 VOLUME 46 • 2016 Ethnologia Scandinavica A JOURNAL FOR NORDIC ETHNOLOGY ISSN 0348-9698 Published by THE ROYAL GUSTAVUS ADOLPHUS ACADEMY FOR SWEDISH FOLK CULTURE Editorial office: Division of Ethnology, Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences Lund University, Box 192, SE-221 00 Lund, Sweden. www.kgaa.nu/tidskrifter.php Editor: Lars-Eric Jönsson, Lund E-mail: [email protected] Assistant editor: Margareta Tellenbach, Bjärred E-mail: [email protected] Editorial board: Marie Riegels Melchior, Copenhagen, [email protected] Birgitta Svensson, Stockholm, [email protected] Anna-Maria Åström, Åbo, [email protected] Tove Fjell, Bergen, [email protected] © 2016 The authors and The Royal Gustavus Adolphus Academy for Swedish Folk Culture Cover illustration: Svenska dalahästar på världsutställningen i Shanghai 2010.

    Comments received for ISO 639-3 Change Request 2015-046 Outcome: Accepted after appeal Effective date: May 27, 2016 SIL International ISO 639-3 Registration Authority 7500 W. Camp Wisdom Rd., Dallas, TX 75236 PHONE: (972) 708-7400 FAX: (972) 708-7380 (GMT-6) E-MAIL: [email protected] INTERNET: http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/ Registration Authority decision on Change Request no. 2015-046: to create the code element [ovd] Ӧvdalian . The request to create the code [ovd] Ӧvdalian has been reevaluated, based on additional information from the original requesters and extensive discussion from outside parties on the IETF list. The additional information has strengthened the case and changed the decision of the Registration Authority to accept the code request. In particular, the long bibliography submitted shows that Ӧvdalian has undergone significant language development, and now has close to 50 publications. In addition, it has been studied extensively, and the academic works should have a distinct code to distinguish them from publications on Swedish. One revision being added by the Registration Authority is the added English name “Elfdalian” which was used in most of the extensive discussion on the IETF list. Michael Everson [email protected] May 4, 2016 This is an appeal by the group responsible for the IETF language subtags to the ISO 639 RA to reconsider and revert their earlier decision and to assign an ISO 639-3 language code to Elfdalian. The undersigned members of the group responsible for the IETF language subtag are concerned about the rejection of the Elfdalian language. There is no doubt that its linguistic features are unique in the continuum of North Germanic languages.
