    Sammanfattning : The Swedish building sector uses a considerable amount of all materials and all energy used in Sweden. Knowledge about the existing building stock, its impact on the environment related to the use of material and energy, however, is limited and target settings for environmental objectives and decision making are based on vague information.

  7. 5. Peasants and Stock Markets : Pathways from Collective Farming in the Post-Soviet Grain-Belt

    Författare :Brian Kuns; Anders Wästfelt; Mats Widgren; Jennifer Clapp; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Agrarian change; environmental history; Ukraine; Russia; U.S.S.R.; large-scale agriculture; agroholdings; financialization; smallholders; peasants; irrigation; uneven development; actor network theory; multi-sited and mixed methods; Geography with Emphasis on Human Geography; geografi med kulturgeografisk inriktning;

    Sammanfattning : What happened in the post-Soviet, European grain-belt after collective farms were dissolved and in what way can we say that collective farm legacies influence agrarian developments in this region today? These are the main questions of this thesis, which is a work of critical human geography, but is also inspired by theories, methods and approaches from the social sciences, broadly defined. Territorially, the focus is Ukraine, but several articles in this thesis take a wider geographic perspective beyond Ukraine, in particular taking into account the role of Nordic investors in the agrarian sector in Ukraine and Russia.
