  • Fisheries) – a Core Element in the Norwegian Government’S High North Strategy
    Lecture delivered at the symposium “Sustainable use of Natural Resources in the Arctic”, Willem Barentsz Polar Institute, Groningen (The Netherlands), 22 October 2009. Odd Gunnar Skagestad: Sustainable Management of Marine Living Resources (fisheries) – A Core Element in the Norwegian Government’s High North Strategy Back in 1987 the so-called World Commission on Environment and Development – which has also been known as The Brundtland Commission – submitted a report called “Our Common Future”. In this document the Commission introduced the term “Sustainable Development”. This was defined as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. The term “Sustainable Development” became an instant success. One may say it became a mantra in world politics. It was, for instance, the central theme of such seminal and high- profile events as the Rio Conference on Environment and Development in 1992 (UNCED) and the Johannesburg World Summit on Sustainable Development in 2002 (WSSD). More specifically for our present context, the expression gained almost universal acceptance as the guiding principle for the management of natural resources. The sustainable development agenda includes the twin concepts of environment conservation and resource management. I’d like to emphasize that these are actually two aspects of the same issue. The key element in both is sustainability: In simple terms, this means that renewable resources should be used, but not be over-exploited to the point of depletion or extinction. The surplus yield should be harvested prudently and responsibly. Renewable resources include marine living resources. So when we talk about “management of marine living resources”, we are referring to fisheries in the broad sense – meaning that the term “fisheries” includes not only catching fish but also the harvesting of crustaceans (such as shrimps, crabs etc.) and marine mammals (whales and seals).

  • Icelandic Or Norwegian Scribe?
    Háskóli Íslands Hugvísindasvið Viking and Medieval Norse Studies Icelandic or Norwegian Scribe? An Empirical Study of AM 310 4to, AM 655 XII-XIII 4to and AM 655 XIV 4to Ritgerð til MA-prófs í Viking and Medieval Norse Studies Attila Márk Bulenda Kt.: 0606904059 Leiðbeinandi: Haraldur Bernharðsson May 2016 ABSTRACT The manuscript AM 310 4to from the 13th century has been the subject of many scholarly studies since the middle of the 19th century. The main research question has always been whether we talk about an Icelandic or a Norwegian manuscript due to the high number of Norwegianisms exhibited by the scribe. The starting point of the present thesis will give an outline of the earlier scholarship and the manifold theories about the provenance of AM 310 4to. In addition to this, with the help of Ole Widding’s palaeographical analysis light will be shed on the relationship of the manuscript with AM 655 XII-XIII and 655 XIV 4to. The next section will be devoted to discuss the problematics about Norwegianisms and the main differences between Old Icelandic and Old Norwegian. Based on this information a comparative palaeographical and linguistic analysis of the three manuscripts will be conducted in order to find out if they were written by three scribes or perhaps a single scribe, and also if the scribe(s) was (were) Icelandic or Norwegian. ÁGRIP Handritið AM 310 4to frá þrettándu öld hefur verið viðfangsefni fræðimanna allar götur frá því á 19. öld.

İlahiyat Fakültesi [email protected] Öz XV. ve XIX. yüzyıllarda kaydedilen gelişme ve yenilikler neticesinde Batı, Doğu karşısında bilim ve teknikte üstünlüğe ele geçirmiş ve doğu insanın gözünde daha cazip hale gelmiştir. Batı sunduğu üstün ekonomik ve sosyal imkânlar sayesinde Doğu ülkelerinden yoğun göçler almaya başlamıştır. Bu dönemde farklı ülkelerden yoğun göç alan Batı ülkelerinden birini de Norveç temsil etmiştir. Norveç’e göç edenlerin çoğunluğunu Pakistanlı, Faslı, Iraklı ve İranlılar göçmen işçiler ve mülteciler temsil etmektedir. Bu göçmen gruplardan birini de Türkler oluşturmaktadır. 1960’ların sonlarında Norveç’e göç eden Türkler, ilk olarak ibadet ve din eğitimi ihtiyaçlarını karşılamak için camiler inşa etmişlerdir. Daha sonra çeşitli organizasyonlar da tesis etmişlerdir. Bu organizasyonlar Türk göçmenlerin hem içinde bulundukları yabancı topluma uyum sağlamalarında hem de dinî ve millî değerlerin korunmasında önemli rol oynamıştır. Bu çalışmada, önce Norveç hakkında genel bilgiler verilecek, daha sonra Türklere ait dinî ve sosyo-kültürel organizasyonlar ve hizmet alanları ele alınacaktır.

    Climate Policy Constraints and NGO Entrepreneurship: The Story of Norway’s Leadership in REDD+ Financing Erlend A. T. Hermansen and Sjur Kasa Abstract Norway – a small northern country with only 5 million inhabitants – is at present a global leader in REDD+ financing. In this paper, we explain why and how this happened by telling the story about the emergence of Norway’s International Climate and Forest Initiative (NICFI) in 2007 and its institutionalization in the following years. We emphasize how a set of Norwegian climate policy characteristics prepared the ground for NICFI. These characteristics were the relative absence of less expensive potential emission cuts domestically, a tradition of seeking cheaper emission reduction options abroad, and few fiscal constraints due to high petroleum revenues. When the domestic demand for a more proactive climate policy started to increase from 2006 onward, two Norwegian environmental NGOs, The Rainforest Foundation Norway and Friends of the Earth Norway, exploited the window of opportunity that emerged from the tension between high domestic abatement costs and increasing domestic climate policy demands by proposing a large-scale Norwegian rainforest effort. This proposal resonated well with the new emphasis on reduced deforestation as a promising climate policy measure internationally. Towards the end of 2007, these ENGOs managed to convince a broad majority in Parliament that large-scale financing of measures to reduce deforestation globally should become an important part of Norwegian climate policy. Financing NICFI through the growth in the steadily increasing development aid budget dampened opposition from more fiscally conservative actors and facilitated the rapid set-up of a flexible implementing organization directly linked to some of the most proactive politicians.
