  • NESS Conference Paper
    THE SWEDISH REGIONAL REFORM AND THE POLITICAL MAP: PARTY INTERESTS AT STAKE David Karlsson 1 and Ylva Norén Bretzer 2 First draft for discussion at the XX NorKom conference Göteborg, SVERIGE, November 24 – 26, 2011. Prepared for Group 1 Abstract In this article we conduct contra factual experiment of thoughts, applying the tactics of gerrymandering into the regionalization process of Sweden. By applying the actual election data from 1998 up to 2010, we discuss the various outcomes of four regional models; i) the present system, ii) a realistic scenario of regional reform (a roadmap commissioned by SALAR), and two hypothetical but possible models based on what regional struc- ture would mostly benefit iii) the left parties and iv) the right parties. The overall aim of the paper is to esti- mate the implications of a regional reform on the political geography of Sweden to provide instruments for fu- ture research on if, and how party interests affect the regional reform process. The analyses also give fuel to a number of relevant discussions on regional reform and its political out- comes. For example, our results highlight the possible lock-in effects in the present discussions concerning the Stockholm/Uppsala regions, Västra Götaland and Halland/or Värmland, and the region of Southwest Sweden. One suggestion is that if citizens are to have long-term confidence in the future regional structure, it should be arranged in such a way that both the left and right wings are satisfied – a double-packing strategy. Such a strategy would make it relatively harder for smaller local/regional parties to affect the political stability of a region.

    Kent, Neil. 2008. A Concise History of Sweden. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. xii+300 pages. ISBN: 978-0-521-01227-0. In the introduction to A Concise History of Sweden, Neil Kent correctly asserts that “a comprehensive history of Sweden is much needed” (i). His book is an ambitious attempt to fill a void. To write a general textbook which encompasses the entire history of one of the oldest states in Europe is challenging, as it forces difficult choices regarding what to include and what to omit. A Concise History of Sweden is written for an Anglo-American audience, something apparent in the choice of focus and references. While it is amusing to see the “match king” Ivar Kreuger introduced as the role model for a character in an early play by Ayn Rand, the Anglo-Saxon mould does not always fit. For instance, Kent over-emphasizes Sweden’s admittedly fascinating, but marginal colonial legacy. There are no less than 12 pages with references to Sweden’s miniscule Caribbean colony Saint Barthélemy, a tiny island of 21 km² with a population of a few thousand people and only six Swedish speakers by 1860. Kent’s over-emphasis of this detail comes at the price of overlooking some important events of far greater importance. For instance, there is no mention of the 1676 Battle of Lund, one of the bloodiest battles on Swedish soil in which almost 10,000 men lost their lives, and Swedish control over Skåneland—Scania, Blekinge, and Halland—was reconfirmed. It is difficult to understand why this event, which came to have a profound impact on Swedish history, is omitted from a standard textbook.

  • DIATOPY of COMPLEMENT-Pu
    6.ÊDIATOPY OF COMPLEMENT-pu In this chapter I catalogue the dialects of Greek in which the realis complemen- tiser system deviates in some significant way from CSMG. There are two ways this can occur: either pu spreads at the expense of oti/pos, particularly into the linguistic and cognitive weak assertive domains, or oti/pos spreads at the ex- pense of pu, particularly into the emotive predetermined domain. Both pro- cesses are attested for Modern Greek dialects.1 The strongest evidence for such a disruption is when weak assertives take pu- complements. Weak assertives are the least factive of realis predicates, and are thus the unlikeliest to take pu-complements in CSMG. One can also consider the use of pu after linguistic predicates, but this test is less reliable, since linguistic- pu is at least a marginal feature of CSMG. The major regions in which comple- mentation is significantly disrupted with respect to CSMG are given in MapÊ1. Map 1. Regions of deviant complementation discussed This is a survey of realis complementation throughout Modern Greek dialects, of a kind not attempted hitherto; for a more global purview of complementa- tion, and to place the spread of complementiser-pu in a diachronic context, I therefore concentrate not only on the distribution of pu, but also on that of other complementisersÑparticularly to in Anatolian Greek, a complementiser which 1Other issues involving complementationÑnotably syntactic issues, such as which parts of speech may take complements, and whether pu-complements may be preposedÑare addressed in ¤7.3. 266 THE STORY OF pu like pu is of relativiser origin, but unlike pu is not a locative.

  • Allied Relations and Negotiations with Sweden A
    Allied Relations and Negotiations With Sweden A. The Allies and Sweden's Wartime Neutrality The geography of Sweden's wartime position, surrounded by German armed forces in Norway, Denmark, and Finland and cut off by the blockade imposed by both the Germans and the Allies, shaped the character of its neutrality stance and the Allies' economic warfare policies alike. Until 1943, Allied economic relations with Sweden were regulated by the Anglo-Swedish War Trade Agreement of December 1939, as modified to respond to the changing military situation in Scandinavia. The December 1939 agreement, in which both countries undertook to maintain the exchange of goods at the normal level (i.e., that of 1938), had two main provisions: Britain would not impede Swedish imports of reasonable quantities of commodities, and Sweden promised not to re-export certain specified goods and to maintain its total exports to Germany at 1938 levels. During the first several years of the War, Britain was satisfied that Sweden honored the terms of the 1939 trade agreement. German occupation of Denmark and Norway in April 1940 made the threat of German invasion of Sweden real. Sweden's neutrality was confirmed and defined by an exchange of letters between King Gustav and Adolf Hitler that same month. Swedish wartime diplomacy sought to ward off German invasion by adopting a neutrality that sacrificed some of Sweden's independence and made significant concessions to Germany. While the Allies understood Sweden's strategic plight and were sympathetic to a fellow democracy, concern persisted over Sweden's contribution to Germany's war effort.

Why is this so? The dissertation takes a close look at privatisation policies in health care in Denmark, Sweden and England in order to figure out how and why the private health care sector has expanded rapidly in recent years. Health care services in Denmark, Sweden and England provide good examples of welfare state service privatisation because these three countries have spent decades building up universal public health care systems that offer free and equal access to all citizens – and these programmes are very popular.

The first conference was organised in Athens, in 2006, under the auspices of ISCA and the University of Athens and is regularly repeated thereafter, including the last one in Paris, in 2011. In accordance with the spirit of this ExLing 2012 conference, we were once again gathered in Athens to continue our discussion on the directions of linguistic research and the use of experimental methodologies in order to gain theoretical and interdisciplinary knowledge. We are happy to see that our initial attempt has gained ground and is becoming an established forum of a new generation of linguists. As in our previous conferences, our colleagues are coming from a variety of different parts of the world and we wish them a rewarding exchange of scientific achievements and expertise. This is indeed the core of the ExLing events, which promote new ideas and methodologies in an international context. We would like to thank all participants for their contributions as well as ISCA and the University of Athens. We also thank our colleagues from the International Advisory Committee and our students from the University of Athens for their assistance.

  • Challenges in the Codification of Endangered Languages: a Case Study of Tsakonian Greek
    Journal of Applied Linguistics 31 (2016), published by the Greek Applied Linguistics Association (GALA) doi: https://doi.org/10.26262/jal.v0i31.8290, eISSN: 2408-025X CHALLENGES IN THE CODIFICATION OF ENDANGERED LANGUAGES: A CASE STUDY OF TSAKONIAN GREEK Efrosini Kritikos Independent Researcher Abstract Tsakonian is an endangered language in need of codification and digitization in order to allow its universal access and dissemination. This paper focuses on the processes of codification within a language planning framework and provides a historical review of the „graphization‟ initiatives of the language in order to shed light on its evolvement to the present date. Of interest is how „unplanned‟ language planning activities influenced by political, social and economic factors at the micro-level have affected these processes in the present case. A valid and reliable script institutionalized by the local community is vital in the creation of an emerging standard. This is essential for the development of the Tsakonian corpus via the uniform transcription of the language and transliteration of existing texts supporting the language‟s transmission and survival. The scientific, educational, technical and political issues involved in the development of a standard script and writing system are examined. A democratic model of language planning is proposed where the community is an active agent in the decision making process addressing ethical concerns of ownership and access. 1. Introduction Tsakonian1 is an endangered Indo-European language2 which Ethnologue3 classifies as a modern descendant of Laconian Doric, a dialect of Ancient Greek. It is spoken in the Peloponnese in the municipality of South Kynouria by a population according to Ethnologue of about 300 speakers.

  • Primary Data Annotation and Morphophonological Analysis of the Tsakonic Dialect, Based on Fieldwork Research
    Primary Data Annotation and Morphophonological Analysis of the Tsakonic Dialect, based on Fieldwork Research Styliani Georgiadou [email protected] MA in Linguistics School of English Aristotle University of Thessaloniki Supervised by Prof. Elizabeth Mela- Athanasopoulou Thessaloniki 31/08/2018 Styliani Georgiadou Styliani Georgiadou Abstract The present dissertation discussed the phonological and morphological occurring phenomena in the Tsakonic dialect. Based on the theoretical framework of language shift and language death, it also aimed to examine if and to what extend several morphophonological phenomena of the Tsakonic dialect were influenced by standard Greek; in other words, if Tsakonic has undergone attrition and constitutes an endangered language. The data were collected through fieldwork research, which was conducted in Peloponnese in November of 2016. Twelve Tsakonic speakers participated and their age ranged from 52 to 84 years old. Interviews with them took place while they were being recorded. The data were analyzed by qualitative research, thus statistical results were not included. The findings confirmed that Tsakonic has been greatly influenced by standard Greek. Its structure is now reduced and oversimplified. The Doric elements of the dialect have been preserved but they constitute mostly a lexical rather than a phonological matter. The reasons that Tsakonic is heading to its death since 1960‟s are various. The urbanization made people look for a better job in big cities, the upgrading of means of transport made the area accessible, linking the villages of Tsakonia to nearby cities. Therefore, the dominant language in Tsakonia is now standard Greek and people use it in order to communicate. The findings of the research indicated that Tsakonic is seriously endangered since there are very few young speakers.

Here, we test the cultural feld hypoth- article esis on Sweden, an important democracy of Europe long regarded as an example by other European countries, by studying the middle-long-term evolution of the spatial structure of political choice over the last three decades. In testing the cultural feld hypothesis, an analysis of spatial correlations is combined with groupings of Swedish municipalities into larger communities refecting the similarity of their voting profles. We show that spatial correlations decay logarithmically, which is a sign of long-ranged interactions, and also demonstrate that Sweden can be divided into three or four large and stable politico-cultural communities. More precisely, a transition from three to four main politico-cultural communities is observed. The fourth community, which emerged in the early 2000s is of particular interest as it is characterized by a large vote- share for the Sweden Democrats, while almost all other parties underperform.
