Compact Urbanism in Small, Remote Settlements Compact Urbanism in Small, Remote Settlements: Decoupling Urban Theory from Scale Ryan Gever Master Thesis in Human Geography Department of Sociology and Human Geography Faculty of Social Sciences UNIVERSITY OF OSLO May 2019 II Compact Urbanism in Small, Remote Settlements: Decoupling Urban Theory from Scale Ryan Gever III Copyright Ryan Gever 2019 Compact Urbanism in Small, Remote Settlements: Decoupling Urban Theory from Scale Ryan Gever http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Reprosentralen, Universitetet i Oslo IV Abstract The compact city has become one of the staple concepts in 21st-century urban theory and policy, as it aims for a more sustainable future, considering contemporary global environmental and climate crises as well as rapid global urbanization. Meanwhile, urbanization is not only increasing its impact on the world but also resulting in an increasingly heterogenous global settlement pattern of urban spaces, including the mobility of theoretical and policy tools across this landscape of settlements. Nevertheless, like many urban theories and policies, the compact city is primarily discussed, practiced, and researched in cities that surpass scalar thresholds that some hold as required to be deemed urban and worthy of consideration, thus not capturing the full variety of settlements worldwide but, instead, a progressively smaller fraction of them. As a result, most smaller settlements – regardless of their recognition as a city or not – are less equipped to engage with compact city theories and policies. Bias towards large-scale settlements risks that smaller settlements will be overlooked entirely when it comes to compact transformations, or that smaller settlements will fail in attempts to do so because of a lack of understanding of small-scale settlements and how compact qualities uniquely interact with such scalar contexts. Therefore, this thesis reframes the compact city as a theory of compact urbanism, applicable in settlements of any scale, and builds a theoretical and policy platform for compact urbanism in small, remote settlements, which represent a scalar context that is furthest from those that dominate the urban field. This is done using qualitative and comparative analyses of data collected from walking interviews with laypeople in four remote settlements, each with under 10,000 inhabitants, in Northern Norway and the Scottish Highlands and Islands. The findings demonstrate how the scale of small, remote settlements uniquely influence many aspects of compact urbanism, framed through the characteristics of density, mixed land use, and non-car dependency, and how these qualities should be accounted for in compact transformations in small, remote settlements. Ultimately, this thesis makes a case for why scale needs to be decoupled from urban theory altogether in favor of an urban theory, including but not limited to compact urbanism, that recognizes the complexity of scale in the study of the material and social dimensions of global settlements. V VI Acknowledgements Sentimentality is not my strong suit, and I have rolled my eyes at numerous acknowledgements pages over the years. But now having produced a text of my own that would not have been possible without the contributions of others, I get it. Binding this document without proper recognition of those people would be simply wrong. First and foremost, I must thank my adviser Michael Gentile for keeping this ship steered, providing expertise throughout the journey, and vanquishing self-fabricated forecasts of storms ahead. Further, thank you to the entire faculty of human geography at the University of Oslo for your intellectual support, especially Per Gunnar Røe and Karen O’Brien, as well as the financial support for my fieldwork expenses. As an American immigrant in Norway, I feel obligated to thank the Norwegian state and public for your investment in higher education so that the decision to further your education does not require financial peril for education seekers like myself. I’d also like to thank my fellow master students, especially those who lived these past two years with me in our reading room, for the community and peer support. Next, no gesture of gratitude is enough to acknowledge my contacts in each of the case settlements who were the vital piece in the data collection process and tolerated my anxiety along the way. And last, I must acknowledge my husband for, well, just about everything in my life these days, and my family in both Norway and the United States. Having people who care, both near and far, has been an invaluable resource. In case anyone is reading this with a weakness for sentimentality like myself, I mean this. These people are more than deserving of a place in this text. Though, critiques and disagreements should be directed to me and not them!

Ruden Sammendrag: Seismisk refraksjonsprofilering ble gjennomført ved RV94 for Statens Vegvesen i forbindelse med oppgradering av RV94 og prosjektering av tunell ved Hammerfest. Formålet med undersøkelsene var å skaffe tilveie informasjon om løsmassemektigheter, løsmassbeskaffenhet samt bergkvalitet ved påhoggene ved Rypefjord og Breilia. Undersøkelsene ble gjennomført ved seismisk refraksjonsprofilering for å bestemme mektigheter og kvalitet av underliggende geologi. Metoden baserer seg på seismisk hastighetsfordeling, og underliggende formasjoner bestemmes da ut fra målte seismiske hastigheter. Ved Rypefjord ble det påvist lag bestående av et øvre tynt torvdekke, organsik jord, grus og sten, deretter oppsprukket fjell 1-5m over kompetent fjell. I Breilia ble det et øvre lag består av 0.5-1.5m torv, organisk jord, grus og sten, deretter 0.2-4.0m med store blokker og oppsprukket fjell over kompetent fjell. Seismisk profilering viser store variasjoner i hastighetsfordelingen som funksjon av orientering. Dette tyder på sterk seismisk anisotropi innen berggrunnen. Dette vises spesielt tydelig ved Rypefjord. Anisotropien kan skyldes foretrukne sprekk-orienteringer. Informasjonen i denne rapporten bør revurderes når informasjon fra fremtidige grunnundersøkelser blir tilgjengelig. Nøkkelord: Seismisk refraksjon, anisotropi Godkjent: F. Ruden, [email protected] AGL13079 Hammerfest Geophysical Survey Report 11 July 2013 PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL THE FINDINGS OF THIS REPORT ARE THE RESULT OF A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY USING NON-INVASIVE SURVEY TECHNIQUES CARRIED OUT AT THE GROUND SURFACE.

When navi- gator Willem Barents discovered the Barents Sea in the end of 16th century, and explorer Roald Amundsen set off to the North Pole in the 1920s, they would make a last stop in Finnmark before the final leg of their journey. They stopped in Finnmark not only because it was the last stretch of European mainland, but also because it was already then, inhabited by a population that for generations had accu- mulated Arctic knowhow. Moreover, in the end of 18th century, the thriving trade in the Barents Ragnhild Vassvik, Chair of the Barents region led to the establishment of the two oldest Regional Council and Chair of towns in Finnmark, Vardø and Hammerfest. Finnmark County Council. Finnmark County is the northern- and easternmost county in Norway, a doorway to the shores of both the North Sea (Atlantic Ocean) and the Barents Sea (Arctic Ocean). It also borders the EU and the Russian Federation. Thus, Finnmark has been and will be putting a strong focus on international co-operation in the High North. The whole Barents region has almost 6 million inhabitants and a surface area of 1,75 million square kilometers.

Available online 18 December 2013 This article focuses on how some selected Norwegian coastal towns adapt to this challenge in their spatial planning, and identifies potential barriers and opportunities for adaptation. Hammerfest in northern Norway is of particular interest since it is one of the few municipalities in Norway that ad- dresses the future rise in sea level in its current municipal master plan. The main conclusion is that although sea level rise has scarcely been acknowledged as a challenge to spatial planning, there is increasing awareness and knowledge of the issues and impacts it presents. An important barrier to adaptation is the lack of authoritative signals from the national government. In Hammerfest there are enthusiasts in the municipal administration, and their ability to build networks with other relevant parties e including both the Planning Section in the municipality and other actors outside the munici- pality e which is a major reason for the consideration of sea level rise being integrated into the master plan.

    Norwegian Archaeological Review, 2019 ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1080/00293652.2019.1621366 Food and Cultural Traits in Coastal Northern Finnmark in the 14th–19th Centuries MARKUS FJELLSTRÖM,GUNILLA ERIKSSON,KERSTIN LIDÉN AND ASGEIR SVESTAD In this study, we used stable isotope analysis and radiocarbon dating to study diet, mobility and chronology in two late medieval/historical coastal popula- tions in northern Norway. We have shown that the individuals buried at Kirkegårdsøya date between 1331 and 1953 cal AD and had a homogenous marine diet, whereas the individuals buried at Gullholmen had a more hetero- geneous diet, consisting of both terrestrial and marine proteins and date between 1661 and 1953 cal AD. We have demonstrated that reindeer protein was not an important part of their diet, and also discussed the importance of correcting for the marine reservoir effect in populations with a coastal subsistence. Our inter- pretation is that individuals buried at Kirkegårdsøya primarily belonged to a Coastal Sámi community, although Norwegians with a similar diet (and likely comprising a minor population in the area) cannot be ruled out. The more varied diet and mobility at Gullholmen could, as predicted, indicate that these individuals may have had a more diverse cultural affinity. INTRODUCTION Iron Age.
