Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- City–Region Food Systems (CRFS) is a cutting-edge concept and an emerging field of research. As a new analytical lens, it offers an integrated and multi-dimensional perspective on food’s origins, how it is grown and the path it follows to our plates and beyond. Building on this concept, this presentation reflects a prospective research project which seeks to explore opportunities for innovative and sustainable food systems in the Gothenburg region of Sweden by focusing on how rural and urban regions, food production and market can be integrated to promote regional food security. The project intends to: 1) develop scenarios with stakeholders for local food production in the region; 2) analyze the consequences of the scenarios on landscape change and biodiversity; 3) explore socio-economic consequences for producers and local communities; and 4) evaluate the sustainability and feasibility of scenarios with stakeholders. Five municipalities in Western Sweden (Gothenburg, Kungälv, Lerum, Alingsås and Essunga) will serve as study areas for the project, selected to reflect different kinds of potential for local food production in terms of dissimilar environmental conditions, prerequisites for farming and economic histories. The project responds to expressed interests and knowledge needs in the region and will be developed and implemented in direct cooperation with local and regional actors such as Västarvet, the Västra Götaland Region, the municipalities and various producer organizations. In sum, there are premises suggesting that recent urban food strategies and plans with sustainability ambitions are embracing several Sustainable Development Goals in the environmental, social, economic, and equity dimensions. This, in turn, is a characteristic of the Transition Movements pathway, in which the utility of food strategies in the work with sustainability transitions seems inevitable. The results are therefore likely to be transferable to other regions.

Berättelser med sanningsanspråk : Språklig och multimodal argumentation i huvudförhandling och dom

Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- The pupose is to study stories about crime, mythopoesis, via the modalities of speech, text and image and to problematise movements of texts that originate in other contexts and institutions. The study examines how and why rhetorical strategies are used to legitimise and delegitimise the content of speeches, texts and images in trials and how relations of influence occur between plaintiffs and defendants in written judgements. The study also examines actor roles and interaction between participants, how authority is negotiated and how technology affects trials.The material consists of 14 audio recordings and investigative reports from three district court trials and 27 judgements. The study combines analyses of speech, texts and images with critical discourse analysis (CDA), social semiotics and legitimation theory as a theoretical framework. The methods are taken from CDA and are based on systemic-functional grammar. The research questions deal with legitimation, recontextualisations, relations of influence, verbal and non-verbal communication between participants, and the influence of technology in the trials. Some results stand out. Rhetorical strategies from Roman law are still applied. The genre now includes modern technology and multimodal texts that change the ways of communication. In addition, texts that are recontextualised can lead to mixture of voices. Lawyers use rhetorical strategies in oral arguments to prove, disprove, create doubt, and transfer guilt and responsibility. Recontextualised texts are surrounded with explanatory contexts that increase their comprehensibility during the trial. Through conscious selection, the content and use of certain verb processes can be legitimised in stories that benefit one's own case or assignment or delegitimised in stories that disadvantage the assignment or case. The power to interpret the content of speeches, texts and images during trials lies with the lawyers. Plaintiffs, defendants and witnesses have limited power over the content of the stories - mythopoesis - about perpetrators and victims, but the interviewees can regulate their stories by using a selection of verbal and non-verbal language acts. In summary, the study shows how language and content are shaped, regulated and recontextualised in practice in trials and judgements.
