Seeing Like a Smuggler: Borders from Below
- 2022
-
Editorial collection (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The word smuggler often unleashes a simplified, negative image painted by the media and the authorities. Such state-centric perspectives hide many social, political and economic relations generated by smuggling. This book looks at the practice through the eyes of the smugglers, revealing how their work can be productive, subversive and deeply sociopolitical. By tracing the illegalised movement of people and goods across borders, Seeing Like a Smuggler shows smuggling as a contradiction within the nation-state system, and in a dialectical relation with the national order of things. It raises questions on how smuggling engages and unsettles the ethics, materialities, visualities, histories and the colonial power relations that form borders and bordering. Covering a wide spectrum of approaches from personal reflections and ethnographies to historical accounts, cultural analysis and visual essays, the book spans the globe from Colombia to Ethiopia, Singapore to Guatemala, Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, and from Kurdistan to Bangladesh, to show how people deal with global inequalities and the restrictions of poverty and immobility.

Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Hur kan kulturmiljövården, själva men också i samarbete med andra aktörer, arbeta för att på olika sätt uppmärksamma, förvalta och förmedla kulturarv som kan upplevas som svåra eller mörka? Ett nystartat projekt vid Uppsala universitet finansierat av Riksantikvarieämbetet undersöker kulturarvsarbetets förutsättningar och hur värdering och urval sker vid omvandlingen av äldre psykiatriska sjukhus. Projektet syftar till att på sikt utveckla metoderna för inkludering av komplexa kulturarv i kulturarvsprocesser kopplade till stadsomvandling. Fokus för studien är Ulleråkersområdet strax söder om Uppsala, ett område som efter drygt 200 år som vårdinstitution i skrivande stund genomgår en snabb omvandling till bostadsområde.

Beyond humanities qua digital : Spatial and material development for digital research infrastructures
- 2018

In: Digital Scholarship in the Humanities. - Oxford : Oxford University Press. - 2055-7671 .- 2055-768X. ; 33:2, s. 264-278

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Universities around the world have increasingly turned to digital infrastructures as a way to revamp the arts and humanities. This article contributes a fresh understanding by examining the material development of HumlabX, a research laboratory for digital humanities at Umeå University, Sweden. Specifically, we approach the empirical case as a timeline of research funding, projects, events, and deliverables to examine how the research laboratory as an organizational and material space developed and evolved in relation to new technology investments. Based on our analysis, we argue that while digital research infrastructures can, indeed, stimulate innovation in and around research, aimed to produce new knowledge, digital technologies carry social and material implications that affect organizational processes. We show that while knowledge production processes at HumlabX were highly influenced by the infrastructural legacy of the past, they indeed directed scholars toward innovation. By discussing these implications in detail, we move beyond the debate of humanities qua digital, and demonstrate the need for scholars of digital humanities to engage in the development of policies for digital research infrastructures. Using a Swedish case study, we argue that research laboratories for the digital humanities must be scrutinized and should be fully exposed as socio-material organizations that develop, and should develop, over time. In particular, we stress the need to ensure that digital humanities laboratories are sustainable and open for redevelopment.
