(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-11-04)I dette kapittelet undersøkes forflytninger av tømmervirke i flere kontekster.

„Denken in einer schlechten Welt“: Von der Notwendigkeit einer kritischen Videospielforschung
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024)Das diesem Text vorgestellte Zitat von Judith Butler erinnert uns an etwas, das man im heutigen (Universitäts-) Alltag schnell vergessen kann: Kritik erfordert Sorgfalt – Sorgfalt im Lesen, Sorgfalt im Denken, Sorgfalt im Schreiben undSorgfalt im Handeln. Damit sind wir bereits mittendrin in einer kritischen Verortung forschender Praxis zu Videospielen, wie wir sie in diesem Band an-streben. Denn: ... -
Epilog
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-06-25)I dette etterordet trekker jeg trådene sammen. Finnes det noen linjer som ordner bidragene? Fellesskap er ett gjennomgående tema. Alle kapitlene handler om fellesskap. Finnes det andre? Ifølge Niklas Luhmann (2016) benytter den sosiologiske samfunnsanalysen seg av i alt fire distinksjoner som også er mekanismer for samfunnsmessig integrasjon. De fire er funksjon, klasse, skillet mellom sentrum og ... -

Kyläpeli og iscenesettelse av kvensk kultur i landsbyspill og på museum
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2024-11-04)Hvordan iscenesettes kulturarv i et kvensk «kyläpeli»? Med utgangspunkt i den kvenske innvandringen til Raisi rettes fremstillingen mot fortid og kvensk kulturarv. Men dette knyttes til relasjoner mellom ulike etniske og sosiale grupper, mellom naturlige omgivelser og det overnaturlige og mellom steder og mennesker. Iscenesettelsen av kulturarv, fortelling og etnisk identitet åpner for dynamiske ... -

De tre gapene i den tradisjonelle vitenskapsfilosofiens historie: en feministisk kritikk
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-12-12)Denne artikkelen systematiserer den feministiske kritikken av den tradisjonelle tilnærmingen til vitenskapsfilosofiens historie innenfor de tre gapene – kunnskapsgapet, prosedyregapet og virkelighetsgapet. Kunnskapsgapet viser hvordan mangel på representasjon og inkludering av ulike sosiale grupper har ført til en intellektuell fattigdom som undergraver vitenskapens evne til å generere relevant ... -

Divided Arctic in a Divided World Order
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2025)Arctic order historically, currently, and in the future, reflects world order. The idea of “Arctic exceptionalism” is not valid and is a poor guide for policy. During Cold War bipolarity, the Arctic was divided between the Soviet Arctic and the Nordic and North American Arctic. US victory and Soviet defeat in the Cold War led to US unipolarity and hegemony which was the basis for a circumpolar ... -
Future constructions in English and Norwegian: A contrastive corpus study.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-10-11)The choice between the future constructions will/shall and BE going to is among the most well-investigated topics in English linguistics. A host of semantic, pragmatic, and syntactic factors has been suggested to drive the alternation between these constructions. Recent research has taken a contrastive perspective and investigated whether similar factors also apply to Norwegian, which shows a very ... -
Concrete Constructions or Messy Mangroves? How modelling contextual effects on constructional alternations reflect theoretical assumptions of language structure.
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-01-05)Depending on the theory of language employed, the paradigmatic and lexical variation associated with a given composite form-meaning pair is treated in different ways. First, variation can be treated as independent of the constructional semantics, an approach typical of modular theories. Second, paradigmatic variation can be considered indicative of constructional semantics; its variation constituting ... -

(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024)A playlist of over 300 songs to do with Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 is examined in an attempt to establish in what way, if any, it correlates with the opinion polls about the pro- and anti-invasion support levels in Russia and elsewhere. The list’s compilation, formatting and categorization principles are explained. Within each of the constituent song groups (antiinvasion ... -

Both regions have been historically dominated by social democratic parties, although with stronger support in Northern Sweden. ... -

Numerous methods are being explored to identify, prevent, and mitigate drought, and distinct metrics have been developed. In order to contribute to the research on measures to be taken against drought, the ... -
Effects of event participant preview and patient animacy in sentence production: a cross-linguistic comparison between English and Russian
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-12-16)Theories of sentence planning (Linear vs. Hierarchical Incrementality) differ in their assumptions about how much conceptual information speakers require to initiate linguistic encoding. This picture description study tested whether speakers’ selection of starting points for their sentences is influenced by the availability of information about a referent (perceptual accessibility) and by ... -
