Tourism Labor Market Impacts of National Parks 115 Zeitschrift Für Wirtschaftsgeographie Jg
Joakim Byström / Dieter K. Müller: Tourism labor market impacts of national parks 115 Zeitschrift für Wirtschaftsgeographie Jg. 58 (2014) Heft 2-3, S. 115–126 Joakim Byström / Dieter K. Müller, Umeå/Sweden Tourism labor market impacts of national parks The case of Swedish Lapland Joakim Byström / Dieter K. Müller: Tourism labor market impacts of national parks Abstract: In a Nordic context, economic impacts of tourism in national parks remained largely un- known due to lacking implementation of standardized comparative measurements. For this reason, we want to investigate the economic impacts of national parks in a peripheral Scandinavian context by analyzing employment in tourism. Theoretically, the paper addresses the idea of nature protection as a tool for regional development. The scientific literature suggests that nature can be considered a commodity that can be used for the production of tourism experiences in peripheries. In this context nature protection is applied as a label for signifying attractive places for tourists leading to increased tourist numbers and employment. This argument follows mainly North American experiences point- ing at a positive impact of protected areas on regional development. Meanwhile European studies are more skeptical regarding desired economic benefits. A major challenge is the assessment of tourism’s economic impacts. This paper suggests an approach that reveals the impacts on the labor market. This is particularly applicable since data is readily available and, moreover from a public perspective, employment and tax incomes are of uppermost importance in order to sustain population figures and local demand for public services. At the same time accessibility and low visitor numbers form major challenges for tourism stakeholders and complicate the assessment of economic impacts through questionnaires and interviews.

The Road in the Park
The Road in the Park Ideology and State power during the 20th century seen through Maps of the Swedish subarctic Abisko Master program (2 year) in historical studies Master of Arts thesis, 30 credits Autumn term 2013 Peter Bennesved Supervisor: Finn Arne Jørgensen Vägen i parken Ideologi och statlig makt under 1900-talet studerad genom kartor över Abisko av Peter Bennesved Abstract Uppsatsens syfte är att försöka hur kartor fungerar som en länk mellan politisk diskurs och det fysiska landskapet. Detta görs genom att studera tre kartor som avbildar samma område men vid olika tidpunkter och med olika motiv. Kartorna studeras genom en operationalisering av den franske sociologen Bruno Latour’s teori om ’immutable mobiles’. Uppsatsen visar att den statliga kartografiska verksamheten under 1900-talet i Sverige producerade immutable mobiles som sedan kunde avläsas av aktörer och som i sin tur kunde använda dem för att understödja deras politiska och vetenskapliga argument. En tillsynes trivial poäng. Problemet är dock avståndet i mellan den centraliserade makten och platsen som i detta fallet är ca 1400 kilometer. Kartorna möjliggör alltså en maktrelation trots det stora avståndet. Allt eftersom de statligt ägda kartorna var hämtade, tolkades de av aktörernas ideologiska perspektiv. Dessa tolkningar låg sedan till grund för politiska beslut som sedan resulterade i faktiska ingrepp i landskapet. Formerandet av Abisko nationalpark används i uppsatsen som ett exempel på hur denna process fungerar. Parken skapades med ett specifikt set av ideologiska motiv. De politiska aktörerna använde statliga kartor för att utforma sin proposition. Formerandet av parken är således en manifestation av både statlig närvaro, statlig kontroll över landskapet och ett ideologiskt artefakt.

Släkten Kuoksu 1539-1930

Utgiven i Göteborg 2011 av författaren. Arbetet kan beställas från: Erik Kuoksu: [email protected] Lulu.com (USA) För information om övriga arbeten av Erik Kuoksu se hemsidan: hem.passagen.se/kuoksu I enlighet med lagen om upphovsrätt förbjudes kopiering och eftertryck av detta arbete utan författarens medgivande. S L Ä K T E N K U O K S U ERIK JOHANSSON KUOKSU d GÖTEBORG 2011 INLEDNING I år är det tvåhundra år sedan Lars Larsson Mukka – Kuoksu, som är stamfar för Kuoksu‐ släkten, dog. På grund av detta ger jag nu ut denna skrift, som dels kommer att finnas tillgänglig som PDF‐fil på Internet, dels kommer att ges ut som bok. Lars Larsson Mukka var född i Junosuando 1727 och tillhörde släkten Mukka – en släkt som i sin tur är en gren av den sedan 1539 kända birkarlssläkten Pello i Pello, Övertorneå socken. Lars blev åbo på nybygget Kuoksu 1765 – ett nybygge som grundats på 1690‐talet av hans hustru Lisa Olofsdotters farfar, men som 1736 tagits över av Kengis bruk. Senast på 1780‐talet började Lars Larsson Mukka kalla sig Lars Larsson Kuoksu, eftersom det i Tornedalen vid den här tiden var sed att uppta boplatsens namn som sitt eget. Genom ett flitigt uppodlingsarbete lade han grunden till en stor förmögenhet, som skingrades först under mellankrigstidens ekonomiska kriser. Lars Larsson Kuoksus sonsöner Olof och Lars Larssöner Kuoksu köpte Kuoksu nybygge av Kengis bruk den 22 februari 1821 och deras ättlingar och efterträdare äger fortfarande delar av det gamla nybygget.

A Long-Term Arctic Snow Depth Record from Abisko, Northern Sweden, 1913–2004
A long-term Arctic snow depth record from Abisko, This article was modifi ed in northern Sweden, 1913–2004 February 2008: Fig. 8 has been corrected. Jack Kohler, Ola Brandt, Margareta Johansson & Terry Callaghan A newly digitized record of snow depth from the Abisko Scientifi c Research Station in northern Sweden covers the period 1913–present. Mean snow depths were taken from paper records of measurements made on a profi le comprising 10 permanent stakes. This long-term record yields snow depths consistent with two other shorter term Abisko records: measurements made at another 10-stake profi le (1974–present) and at a single stake (1956–present). The measurement interval is variable, rang- ing from daily to monthly, and there are no data for about half of the winter months in the period 1930–1956. To fi ll the gaps, we use a simple snowpack model driven by concurrent temperature and precipitation measurements at Abisko. Model snow depths are similar to observed; dif- ferences between the two records are comparable to those between profi le and single stake measurements. For both model and observed snow depth records, the most statistically signifi cant trend is in winter mean snow depths, amounting to an increase of about 2 cm or 5 % of the mean per decade over the whole measurement period, and 10 % per decade since the 1930–40s, but all seasonal means of snow depth show positive trends on the longest timescales. However, the start, end, and length of the snow season do not show any statistically signifi cant long-term trends.
