The main focus of this thesis has been to study how formal territorialization can be expressed in the study area and to study the consequences of what those territorializing processes may have in the urban green commons in the study area. The overall focus for this thesis has been the issue of territorialization and its consequences in terms of formal land claims in urban green commons when it is planned and proposed for by large-scale land use planning. Based on a case study together with field studies, literature studies, interviews and map data, the results of this thesis have highlighted the potential consequences of the city of Stockholm’s proposed land use plans in the thesis study area with formal land claims on land that today is classified, according to this thesis’s assessment, as widely appreciated the area’s residents and important urban green commons. The city of Stockholm, with it’s plans and proposals in the ”Program proposal for Spångadalen”, formally makes a territorializing claim on land that is found to be within the city's ownership, but which are also important urban green commons for the people who live in connection with them and also important for the area's flora and fauna. Three of the four sub-areas, (within the main study area), are considered sensitive to changes in the use of the land. The city's land within the study area is urban green commons with parts of it that have high nature values, are appreciated green areas among the areas residents and house habitats for endangered flora and fauna. This means that further work with regular and well-planned monitoring of the city’s urban green commons is needed in order to follow potential changes in the state of these urban green commons over time and to insert the right measures, at appropriate times and in the right places, in order for the city to successfully reach it’s sustainability goals set in the city’s Municipal Comprehensive Plan, (”översiktsplan” in Swedish).
