Forskningsprojekt Humanvetenskaplig miljöforskning
Humanvetenskaplig miljöforskning är en satsning på att samordna och utveckla humanvetenskapliga områdets humanistiska, rättsvetenskapliga och samhällsvetenskapliga miljöforskning.
Relevant miljöforskning bedrivs vid ett flertal institutioner inom humanvetenskapliga området och i samverkan med det naturvetenskapliga området. Satsningen omfattar politiska rättsvetenskapliga, kulturella, estetiska , litterära, etiska, religionsvetenskapliga och andra humanvetenskapliga perspektiv på ekologi, miljö och miljöpolitik.
Projektbeskrivning
The university realises that the human factors driving on-going global environmental change cannot be fully understood without a Human Sciences perspective. Underlying the alarming changes which receive so much publicity are socio-cultural practices, the economic systems in which we produce and consume resources, and the politico-legal structures which permit and prevent action around the world. The human sciences have a unique contribution to make towards understanding the diversity and history of these contributory factors, as well as towards analysing how necessary change can come about.
To advance the Human Sciences’ ability to fulfil this role, we have developed a forum to bring voices, ideas and research together in a dialogue that crosses the disciplinary boundaries in and around our area.
This is achieved through the following activities:
- Identify and develop joint research questions and projects
- Strengthen collaboration, internationalization and collaboration with various stakeholders
- To create structures and conditions that ensure the longterm viability of this effort
- Strengthening of research network
- Research school in the Environmental Humanities
- Initiate workshops and seminar series based on the collaboration efforts of post doctors within the project
- To spread knowledge of and interest in environmental projects within the field of Human sciences
In the long term, this action will facilitate more meaningful conversation between the Human and Natural Sciences, and furthermore it will strengthen Stockholm University’s connections at an international stage and with stakeholders outside the university environment.

Using narratives for strategic adaptation: lessons learned from COP21
In the midst of the current wave of climate protests under banners of Fridays for Future and Extinction Rebellion, it is worthwhile to look back at past mobilizations of the climate movement, and to see what lessons can be learnt from them. Drawing on our recent study of the climate movement’s mobilization around COP21, published open access in the journal Theory and Society, we argue that today’s organizers would benefit from reflecting upon the use of shared stories about prior mobilizations when strategizing.

Climate action shouldn’t mean choosing between personal and political responsibility
We often treat the decisions to find alternative ways of living more sustainably and to pursue political resistance against big polluters and inactive governments as separate. But our recent research found that the relationship between alternatives and resistance is really far more complex. One can often lead to the other. But we also found that this doesn’t always happen and that bringing the two together can be difficult.

Wasteocene. Guerrilla Narrative and the embodied stratigraphies of toxic capitalism
Humans may live in the Anthropocene, but this does not affect all of them in the same way. How would the Anthropocene look if, instead of searching its traces in the geosphere, researchers would look for them in the organosphere, that is, in the ecologies of humans in their entanglements with the environment?
