7. det meränmänskliga museet : Konservatorns bevarandepraktik som flyktlinje i modernitetens museum
Sammanfattning : This thesis takes the conservator as a starting point to explore more-than-human aspects of the museum of modernity. Assuming that built-in obstacles impinge when museums today deal with environmental issues‚ it investigates new and alternative perspectives on the engagement with our immediate surroundings, in this case the museum objects.

8. Den ofärdiga vetenskapen : Om krisen i svensk litteraturforskning och litteraturtolkningens villkor
Sammanfattning : Denna avhandling undersöker en brist på konsensus inom den svenska litteraturvetenskapliga forskningen gällande såväl dess objekts grundläggande egenskaper, som vilka teorier och metoder för att studera detta objekt som är mest giltiga. Från perspektivet av denna brist, föreställd som en epistemologisk ”kris”, utforskas här möjligheterna för att betrakta detta sakförhållande som produktivt av kunskap samt vilken form denna kunskap i så fall skulle ta.

9. A Utopian Quest for Universal Knowledge : Diachronic Histories of Botanical Collections between the Sixteenth Century and the Present
Sammanfattning : This thesis explores the history of botany as a global collection-based science by tracing parallels between utopian traditions and botanical collecting, from their sixteenth-century beginnings to the present. A range of botanical collections, such as gardens, herbaria and classification systems, have played a central role in the struggle to discover a global or universal scientific order for the chaotic, diverse and locally shaped kingdom of plants.

10. Evolutionary Materialism: Towards a Theory of Anticipatory Adaptive Assemblages
Sammanfattning : This thesis is an investigation into how meta-heuristic multi-objective optimisation processes (genetic algorithms driven by evolutionary solvers) can bring about materials-related advantages in architectural performance. It redefines the architect’s and engineer’s role from being designers of a singular space or structure to being designers of entire species of spaces, and discusses a particular method – anticipatory adaptive assemblages (AAA) – that allows such processes to produce many generations of design iterations that eventually yield individuals optimised for a set of predefined objectives.
