The authors explore PhD education as an interstitial field, combining elements of education and research, that is governed by partially conflicting expectations about forms of academic publication and evaluation. The investigation encompasses challenges and opportunities faced by PhD students during their postgraduate education, self-reported, as perceived by senior scholars, and structural, embedded within PhD education. </p> <p>Empirically this study builds on two types of data. First, it presents an extensive survey of the literature on the academic quality of compilation theses in several disciplines, with a special focus on history. Second, it builds on in-depth interviews with three former PhD students in history (from the 1990s to the 2020s) who are still active in the field, and their experiences of writing a compilation thesis and its impact on their subsequent careers. The issues they raised ranged from academic independence and control to the resistance they encountered in the discipline and how they dealt with it. The article makes a number of practical recommendations for how postgraduate education in history could address and alleviate some of the challenges of writing a compilation thesis.</p>2024-06-04T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Historisk tidskrifthttps://historisktidskrift.se/index.php/june20/article/view/905Skogskris och resurskonflikt2024-05-15T08:30:17+00:00Alexander C. Engströmalexander.c.engstrom@gmail.com<p>Energy shortages and resource disputes: Forest degradation in Sweden, 1740–1820</p> <p>In the eighteenth century, Sweden saw a fierce, elite-driven debate in Kungl. Vetenskapsakademien (Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences) and Kungl. Patriotiska sällskapet (Royal Patriotic Society) about the country’s wood shortage. It was echoed in several strict forest ordinances, introduced primarily to safeguard the interests of the iron industry. The elite tended to blame the peasantry and their supposed ”skogsödande” or squandering of forestry resources. If the waste of timber and fuel could not be halted, there would be no end to the misery that would befall the country for generations to come; however, were sustainable forestry practices and responsible wood use to be adopted, in accordance with the elite’s proposals, then there would be no limit to Sweden’s prosperity and success.</p> <p>The various explanations of the waste of forestry resources intersected with contemporary cameralism, but also drew on the traditional elite arguments about resource management, making a clear distinction between progressive, moral, patriarchal elite rule and the backward practices of recalcitrant commoners – a distinction that centred on the discourses of threat and solution. It was believed the peasantry were guilty of forest degradation and thus it was their responsibility to remedy it. Any and all of the peasants’ practices, no matter how minor, were thought evidence of their poor forest management and wasteful use of wood. This gave the elite the opportunity to frame such practices as against the interests of the nation and even the peasantry. Good governance by the elite was essential for the preservation of the woodlands, as well as optimising wood use and replacing wood with wood-saving alternatives. Only then could Sweden’s forests be made to flourish again.</p> <p>The peasantry countered the elite’s arguments by portraying themselves as both professional and patriotic foresters, who possessed all the skills for sustainable forestry. They contended that the cause of forest degradation lay not with the peasantry, but with overzealous legislators and officials, regulations, trade barriers, levies, and overambitious infrastructure projects. As such, the peasantry argued that only through deregulation and land reform to benefit privately owned forests would the Swedish state be able to mitigate the threat of deforestation and save one of its most precious resources.</p>2024-06-04T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Historisk tidskrifthttps://historisktidskrift.se/index.php/june20/article/view/906Den sidste karoliner2024-05-15T08:36:56+00:00Emil Hilton Saggauemil.bjorn_hilton_saggau@ctr.lu.se<p>The last of the Caroleans: Remembering Magnus Stenbock</p> <p>In the Swedish city of Helsingborg, in the southernmost county of Skåne, there is a prominent equestrian statue of Magnus Stenbock (1666–1717). Unveiled in 1901, it is a testament to his popularity as a commander of the Carolean Army and provincial governor general. The memorial culture surrounding Stenbock included various monuments, festivals, and parades in Skåne (Scania) and particularly in Helsingborg. This article investigates the emergence of memorial culture, its growing importance, and its purpose and concludes that Stenbock’s popularity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was closely tied to Swedish nationalism and local patriotism. The celebration of his memory revolved around the commemoration of the decisive Battle of Helsingborg in 1710 as the pivotal moment in Skåne’s transition from Danish to Swedish rule. The memorial culture of Magnus Stenbock is illustrative of the evolution of three levels of identity: a regional city identity, a national identity, and a pan-national identity.</p>2024-06-04T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Historisk tidskrifthttps://historisktidskrift.se/index.php/june20/article/view/907Sverigedemokraternas Sverigehus2024-05-15T08:48:36+00:00Julia Håkanssonjulia.hakansson@mau.se2024-06-04T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Historisk tidskrift
