    Sammanfattning : Denna avhandling undersöker hur marknadisering introducerades som idé i offentliga verksamheter i Sverige från 1970-talets början till omkring år 2000. Marknadisering definieras här som processen att göra verksamheter som inte tidigare var marknadsorganiserade eller marknadsstyrda mer marknadsliknande, och att detta framförallt handlade om offentliga verksamheter.

    Författare :Jesse Peterson; Sabine Höhler; Kate Rigby; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; algal bloom; Baltic Sea; cultural eutrophication; dead zone; waste ecology; environmental degradation; environmental humanities; critical ocean studies; environmental imaginary; environmental value; more-than- human; textual analysis; visual analysis; storytelling; algblomning; Östersjön; kulturell övergödning; bottendöd; avfallsekologi; miljöförstöring; miljövetenskap; kritiska havsstudier; miljömyndighet; miljövärde; mer-än-mänsklig; textanalys; visuell analys; berättande; Historiska studier av teknik; vetenskap och miljö; History of Science; Technology and Environment;

    Sammanfattning : This dissertation researches how perspectives in western industrial societies communicate about and give meaning to environmental degradation through case studies on the causes and effects of cultural eutrophication—namely nutrient pollution, algal blooms, and dead zones—in the Baltic Sea. Utilizing this approach, this dissertation addresses the ecological problems of cultural eutrophication in marine ecosystems by exposing normative claims humans make about the Baltic Sea and its contents as well as detailing how seas that exceed human expectations may offer insights into negotiating differing perspectives, discrepancies in power, and ways of being among humans and non-humans in marine environments.
