Arbete pågår : - i tankens mönster och kroppens miljöer
- 2008
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Work is always in progress, somewhere, in some form. In a historical perspective the view of work has changed, as have the contexts where work takes place. Still there are strongly rooted images of what work is – in the patterns of thought and material conditions.This book embarks from the idea that work is something both immaterial and material. It discusses work as a conception and cultural norm, but also as something very tangible and concrete.Researchers from an array of scientific fields have gathered together around these questions. The idea has been to twist and turn the conceptions of what work is and – embarking from one’s own discipline – to contribute new perspectives to this topic.

Industrial Heritage Around the Baltic Sea
- 2012. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This book is the result of a multidisciplinary collaboration between researchers on both sides of the Baltic Sea, who are interested in industrial transition, social landscapes and industrial heritage. It is also a report from a PhD-education program with young researchers and teachers coming together twice a year for workshops. One purpose of this collaboration was to carry out studies regarding how the industrial heritage has been used in the renewal of cities and landscapes of industry in the process of transformation in the former Soviet republics and in the Nordic welfare countries. Another aim was to develop theoretical and methodological instruments in order to understand and analyse the industrial transition and transformation of society in the Nordic and Baltic countries.

Vetenskap och politik : Bo Gustafsson 1931-2000, en minnesskrift på 80-årsdagen av hans födelse
- 2012. - 1
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This book is a commemorative publication, with annotated, posthumously published material, in honor of Professor Bo Gustafsson on the 80th anniversary of his birth. Gustafsson was a professor at the Department of Economic History 1977−2000 at Uppsala University and one of the discipline’s most prominent figures during the late 20th century. The title “Research and Politics” refers to his political and publishing activity in 1960's and the 70’s left-wing movement and to his academic legacy up to the time of his death. His life and work are presented initially in an essay by Lars Magnusson, and thereafter for the first time Bo Gustafsson’s unfinished autobiography is published. The bulk of the book, however, is made up of his posthumously published essay, “The Transition from Domestic Industries to Factories” on the emergence of mechanized cotton spinning in the 18th century. It is a weighty contribution to the debate on the origins of the factory system in England and is presented in an introduction by Klas Nyberg. Finally Bo Gustafsson’s bibliography, compiled by Larisa Oldireva Gustafsson, is published.
