The study is about Eskilstuna GUIF, which has a background within the temperance movement IOGT between the years 1900–1940. The purpose of this study is to shed light on how GUIF went from being an association with a sobriety ideal to becoming a sports association. The temperance movement lost many members during the 20th century when the law to ban alcoholic beverages did not pass in 1922. This resulted in the sports movement becoming larger and the GUIF joined the executive board. The source material for this study consists of board reports and annual reports from GUIF's section. This gives the study an overall understanding for the reader to get an overall picture for the reader.The method selected for this study has been a narrative method as it has the function of deciphering GUIF's annual reports and board reports. The selected method fitted in very well in this type of research as the selected material for this study is in the form of stories. This results in the stories fulfilling a function in that it raises different perspectives. The selected theories for this study are movement entrepreneur and movement ideology. The purpose of these theories is to examine how the GUIF went from being a normal sobriety association to starting to bet on handball.The results of this study showed that Eskilstuna GUIF, which started as a sobriety association but did sports on the side, changed. GUIF offers sports as it can lead to more people being able to do sports and stay away from alcohol. This was during the heyday of the temperance movement but in 1922 there was a referendum to remove alcoholic beverages. This referendum did not go the way of the temperance movement, which resulted in the temperance movement losing many members and the sports movement becoming big in the country instead. This resulted in sports becoming the priority within the association. The young people began to get more involved in sports and were not interested in lodge matters. This results in handball becoming the biggest sport in the association over time.

Les Aires Protégées Marines et Côtières (APMC), comme outil de gestion des usages, ont été mises en place pour faire face à l’érosion de la biodiversité. Depuis quelques décennies, la participation des différents acteurs concernés par la création et la gestion des APMC est largement encouragée afin que ces projets de conservation perdurent dans le temps et produisent les résultats escomptés. Cette thèse porte sur l’étude des APMC localisées dans le sud-ouest du golfe de Californie, espace où se concentrent divers enjeux (conservation, pêche et tourisme). C’est l’approche qualitative, croisée avec des documents du gouvernement, qui a été choisie pour mener cette thèse concernant la gouvernance des APMC. L’analyse de la gouvernance nécessite l’identification des parties-prenantes, leurs interactions et leurs relations avec I’APMC ainsi que l’étude des représentations des acteurs relatives à cet espace. Ces aires protégées, dont la création a été soutenue et initiée par des acteurs locaux, sont gérés par un organisme déconcentré de l’Etat, la Commission Nationale des Aires Naturelles Protégées (CONANP). Néanmoins, concernant les processus décisionnels et la gestion de ces aires protégées, la frontière entre le rôle de la CONANP et celui des organisations non gouvernementales environnementales (ONGE) est parfois floue. Ces acteurs interagissent à l’interface de différentes échelles géographiques (du local au global). La mise en place de processus participatifs incluant la population locale est encouragée par la CONANP ainsi que par des ONGE. Cependant, ces initiatives ont parfois laissé en marge une partie de la population locale. / Marine and Coastal Protected Areas (MCPAs), as an activity-based management tool, were established aiming to face biodiversity loss. Over the past few decades, the participation of different stakeholders involved in the creation and the management of MCPAs is widely encouraged, in order that these conservation projects may last over time and produce the expected results. This research work focuses on MCPAs localized in the southern Gulf of California, an area where various issues (conservation, fishing and tourism) are concentrated. The qualitative approach, as regards governmental documents, has been selected to carry out this thesis related to MCPAs governance. MCPAs governance needs to identify stakeholders, their interactions and their relations with the MCPA, as well as the study of stakeholder representations linked to this area. These protected areas, the creation of which has been supported and initiated by local actors, are managed by a decentralized government agency, the National Commission of Natural Protected Areas (CONANP). However, concerning the decisional processes and the management of protected areas, the frontier between the role of the CONANP and these forms of environmental Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) is sometimes fuzzy. These actors interact at different geographical scales (from local to global). The implementation of participative processes that involve local populations is supported by the CONANP and environmental NGOs. Nevertheless, these initiatives have not always taken into account the entire local population. / Las Áreas Protegidas Marinas y Costeras (APMC), como herramienta de manejo de los usos, fueron establecidas para hacer frente a la erosión de la biodiversidad. Desde hace algunas décadas, la participación de los distintos actores interesados por la creación y el manejo de las APMC es ampliamente promovida para que los proyectos de conservación perduren en el tiempo y produzcan los resultados esperados. Esta tesis se focaliza en las APMC localizadas en el suroeste del Golfo de California, espacio donde se concentran diferentes desafíos (conservación, pesca y turismo). El método cualitativo, contrastado con documentos del gobierno, fue elegido para realizar esta tesis acerca de la gobernanza de las APMC. El análisis de la gobernanza necesita la identificación de las partes interesadas, de sus interacciones y de sus relaciones con el APMC, así como del estudio de las representaciones de los actores en cuanto a ese espacio. Estas áreas protegidas, cuya creación fue sostenida e iniciada por actores locales, son manejadas por un organismo desconcentrado del Estado, la Comisión Nacional de Áreas Naturales Protegidas (CONANP). Sin embargo, en cuanto a la toma de decisiones y los procesos de manejo de las áreas protegidas, los límites entre el papel de la CONANP y el de las organizaciones no gubernamentales (ONG) ambientales son algunas veces ambiguos. Esos actores interactúan en el interfaz entre diferentes escalas geográficas (del local al global). El establecimiento de procesos participativos que incluyen a la población local es fomentado tanto por la CONANP como por las ONG ambientales. No obstante, esas iniciativas, a veces han marginalizado una parte de la población local.
