Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur klimatanpassning tas upp i den långsiktiga planeringen för svenska kommuner. Metoden som använts för studien är en kvalitativ innehållsanalys där översiktsplaner för fyra mindre kommuner i södra Sverige analyserats. Resultatet visar att samtliga kommuner tar upp behovet av anpassning till klimatförändringarnas effekter, om än i något varierande omfattning. Samtliga kommuner belyser främst behovet av framtida anpassningsåtgärder och en generell hänsyn vid planering och utveckling av kommunen.

12	La revue de la Chambre de commerce de Montréal et la modernisation de la métropole dans les années 1950 et 1960 Morena, Justin Michael 07 1900 (has links) Pendant les années 1950 et 1960, Montréal se modernise sur plusieurs aspects. L’influence de l’administration de la ville sur cette modernisation est bien connue. Toutefois, les perspectives des acteurs extérieurs sont souvent ignorées. Ce mémoire examine donc les opinions de la Chambre de commerce de Montréal sur la modernisation de la métropole québécoise lors de ces deux décennies. La source principale utilisée pour effectuer cette étude a été la revue hebdomadaire de la Chambre, Commerce-Montréal. Dans le premier chapitre, les opinions de la Chambre de commerce sur la gouvernance municipale sont examinées. Celles-ci montrent que la Chambre percevait l’assainissement des moeurs politiques et l’amélioration de l’efficacité administrative comme intrinsèques à la modernisation de Montréal. Le deuxième chapitre porte sur la circulation automobile et le transport en commun. La Chambre proposait des moyens d’accélérer le débit de la circulation qu’elle jugeait crucial pour la modernisation de la métropole. Le troisième chapitre traite du développement urbain. D’après la Chambre, la modernisation de Montréal exigeait le renouvellement du cadre bâti de la ville, tant résidentiel que commercial. L’étude de ces trois thèmes confirme que, pendant la période 1950-1970, la Chambre de commerce a contribué de manière significative aux débats concernant la modernisation de Montréal. Nous relevons aussi que l’organisme, malgré son désir de paraître apolitique, a été influencé par sa fonction de représentant de la communauté d’affaires francophone. L’importance accordée à la rentabilité de la modernisation, ainsi que la hiérarchisation sociale attribuée à certains sujets, confirment notamment les orientations conservatrices de l’organisme. / During the 1950s and 1960s, Montréal was becoming increasingly modernized. It is well known that the municipal administration had a considerable influence on this modernization. However, the perspectives of exterior actors have often been ignored. As such, this thesis examines the opinions of the Chambre de commerce de Montréal (the city’s francophone chamber of commerce) on the modernization of Québec’s metropolis during the above-mentioned decades. The main source that was used for this study was the Chambre’s weekly publication, Commerce-Montréal. The first chapter examines the Chambre’s opinions on municipal governance. It shows that, for the Chambre, the modernization of Montréal required the elimination of corrupt political practices and an increase in government efficiency. The second chapter studies traffic flow. It explains the Chambre’s positions on measures aimed at increasing the speed of traffic. The organization saw this as crucial to the modernization of the city. The third chapter discusses urban development. According to the Chambre, Montréal’s modernization necessitated a renewal of both its residential and commercial built environment. Studying these three themes confirmed that, from 1950 to 1970, the Chambre de commerce contributed to the debates concerning the modernization of Montréal, advocating in favour of it. It is also evident that the organization, despite its desire to appear apolitical, was influenced by its position as representative of the francophone business community. In particular, the Chambre’s emphasis on the profitability of modernization, as well as its focus on social stratification (regarding certain issues) attest to the organization’s conservative nature.

13	Explaining within-country variation in post-war democratization : The role of legitimate local-international partnerships in municipal governance reform in Kosovo Glad, Emelie January 2019 (has links) A growing literature on hybrid peace governance has showed the importance of taking into account the interactive nature of peacebuilding. However, this literature largely remains imprecise about how local-international interactions affect outcomes, and the hybrid turn has not produced much comparative empirical evidence. This study attempts to contribute to filling this research gap by developing a causal explanation for why micro-level local-international interactions produce within-country variations in post-war democratization. Based on scholarship on strategic bargaining, local ownership and legitimacy, it is hypothesized that a higher prevalence of legitimate local-international partnerships leads to higher adherence to good governance principles. The study uses key informant interviews and survey data to conduct a qualitative most-similar case study at the sub-national level. From the analysis of three municipalities in Kosovo, some support for the hypothesis is generated. The results show that with increased capacity from international support and legitimacy derived from closeness to citizens, local non-political actors can put pressure on political actors to reform. However, more studies are needed to refine the theory and test its applicability in other contexts. peacebuilding state-building liberal peacebuilding post-war democratization hybrid peace governance local ownership legitimacy municipal governance Kosovo Övrig annan samhällsvetenskap

15	Kommunal styrning ur ett yrkes- och vägledarperspektiv. : Hur påverkar styrningen vägledarens uppdrag och kompensatoriska roll? / A study- and career counselor perspective on municipal governance. : How does the municipal governance affect the counselors’ tasks and compensatory work? Seger, Ann-Sofie, Eriksson, Kent January 2013 (has links) Denna studies huvudsakliga syfte är att undersöka hur studie- och yrkesvägledarnas yrkesutövning och kompensatoriska arbete påverkas av den kommunala styrningen i tre olika kommuner. Frågor som belyses är hur kommunernas policydokument lyfter fram vägledningens betydelse för kompensatorisk vägledning och hur vägledarna uppfattar styrningens påverkan. Metod som använts är tredelad, datainsamling från kommunernas styrningsdokument, enkäter till vägledare på gymnasier och grundskolor och intervjuer med två vägledare i respektive kommun. Resultatet visar att skillnader förekommer mellan kommuner, att studie- och yrkesvägledningen inte behandlas specifikt i kommunala policydokument och att styrningen ger en stark påverkan av vägledarnas möjligheter att arbeta kompensatoriskt. I två av studiens tre kommuner har steg tagits för organisatoriska ändringar och visade på ökad fokus på vägledningen. En av tre kommuner hade begränsade resurser vilka hade en direkt inverkan på, och begränsade, möjligheterna till kompensatorisk vägledning. / The main purpose of this study is to investigate what effect the municipal governance have on study- and career counselors professional practice and on their compensatory work in three different municipalities. Research is made on how, and if, the municipality policy documents mention counseling practice in the compensatory work at schools and how the study- and career counselor perceive the effects of governance. The method used is triangular, data collection from municipal policy documents, using questionnaires to career- and study counselors at high and elementary schools and interviews with two counselors in each municipality. The results show differences between the municipalities and that study and career counseling is not specified in the municipal policy documents. It also shows that the governance has a strong influence on counselors’ opportunity to work compensatory. Two out of three municipalities show that steps had been taken for organizational changes and indicated an increased focus on career-and study counseling. One of the three municipalities had limited resources which had a direct impact on, and limited the practice, of compensatory work.

Nous avons souhaité expérimenter la « Théorie des villes en réseau » sur notre cas étude. En effet cette approche est évoquée comme un « modus operandi » alternatif par d'éminents géographes, sociologues et économistes parmi lesquels Manuel Castells, Roberto Camagni, Georg Simmel et Jan van Dijk. La « Théorie des villes en réseau » présente deux avantages principaux en comparaison des théories traditionnelles. Ces avantages résident dans la prise en compte de deux phénomènes postérieurs aux théories traditionnelles : d’une part, la prise en considération de nouveaux contextes socio-spatiaux ; d’autre part, l’appréhension de l’évolution des processus de transmission de la connaissance. / With the purpose to promote a new approach to the analysis of regional urban systems which takes into account the technological progress and the contemporary evolutions in the ways of organizing, living and working, we felt compelled to seek the evidence of the “City-network” theory as an alternative modus operandi evoked by some prominent geographers, sociologists and economists such as Manuel Castells, Roberto Camagni, Georg Simmel, Jan van Dijk and others. The advantages of the “City-network” theory as compared to the traditional theories are in understanding that there are new socio-spatial contexts and that the contemporary knowledge travels along “pipelines” between cities, towns, cultures which are neither spatial nor strictly hierarchical. The network is seen as a structure where the nodes are cities and towns connected by the link of different nature, through which socio-economic flows are exchanged.

Point of departure is that building in wood is a prerequisite to reach the Swedish climate targets of drastically reducing national CO2-emissions. In a case study two municipalities are examined, Växjö and Skellefteå, two municipalities with strategies to increase building in wood and with long experience in doing so. The study explores how contextual planning conditions (project specific and informal conditions) alongside formal planning conditions affects the municipal space of action. The result shows that processes to identify planning conditions and to bridge different perspectives are crucial in order to create a contextual space of action. The result further demonstrates that contextual planning condition withhold the potential to, to a certain degree, create space of action outside the presupposed boundaries of the formal planning system. sustainable construction sustainable urban development sustainable urban planning spatial planning strategical planning planning conditions bio economy wood construction wood building municipal governance governance municipal space of action policy climate carbon dioxide emissions life cycle perspective triple helix forum arena court planning conditions public procurement public construction contract hållbar stadsbyggnad hållbar stadsutveckling hållbar stadsplanering fysisk planering strategisk planering bioekonomi träbyggnation träbyggnad kommunal styrning kommunalt handlingsutrymme formellt handlingsutrymme kontextuellt handlingsutrymme styrmedel policy forskning och utveckling plan- och bygglagen governance klimat koldioxidutsläpp livscykelperspektiv byggprocessens klimatpåverkan trippel helix forum arena court planeringsförutsättningar markanvisning offentlig upphandling byggentreprenad Social Sciences Samhällsvetenskap
