Water governance for good ecological status and water quality in south-western Czechia – an interdisciplinary study
This study examines stakeholder efforts to meet European targets for raw water quality. Key sources of water quality deterioration include fish farming, agricultural activities, partially treated urban sewage, and forestry. Although the forest sector and municipal wastewater treatment facilities have demonstrated progress, fish farming and agricultural sectors remain reluctant to implement effective measures. Economic considerations, level of env…
Health disparities and social vulnerabilities in low-income urban neighbourhoods during the Covid-19 pandemic
This study examines the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic in Stovner, an urban low-income, working-class borough of Oslo. The study reveals the feedback-loop between mental health and pay problems and mental health and the respondent’s network – negatively affecting people’s quality-of-life. The study applies Bourdieu for identifying three habitus-types being particularly vulnerable to the COVID-19 pandemic and estimating their share of the S…
The technological development of drinking water treatment plants in the Czech Republic
Several actors have an impact on the quality of drinking water, but ultimately drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs) play a decisive role in ensuring that water quality complies with public regulations. Several developing technologies are combined in water treatment processes. In this paper, we are analysing the technological development of DWTPs in the South Bohemian region of the Czech Republic. The empirical basis is five DWTPs of varying si…
Self-Reported Social Status among Rural Residents
China has in recent decades undergone profound changes and continues to do so— changes that are transforming the social fabric, motivating studies on how self-reported social status is changing in different parts of China. Applying a realist approach, the study emanates from theories on self-reported social status underlining the role of reference-groups, adding insights from the work of Pierre Bourdieu by introducing the terminology of habitus a…
Climate change adaptation in Norway
During the last decade, it has become evident that planet earth will be warming. Hence, there is an increasing focus on how to adapt to a changing climate. The adaptation literature underlines the importance played by local government in planning and implementing adaptation policies. This article is addressing learning–knowledge–action processes within and between local (municipal) and central (national and regional) government levels, thereby fi…
The understanding and role of uncertainty and risk in climate change adaptation
A common claim is that emerging and future climate change is rendering traditional conceptions of uncertainty and risk obsolete. This is because a changing climate makes it quite a challenge to calculate uncertainties, establishing the measurable uncertainty as the basis for quantifying risk. Approaches that are capable of accommodating and possibly countering the wickedness caused by increasing uncertainty are necessary, the argument holds. Foll…
Interdisciplinary research and transdisciplinary processes for environmental management under different socio-natural conditions
Interdisciplinary research and transdisciplinary processes as part of environmental management respond to the increasing complexity of socio-natural changes in recent decades. Two similar studies of eutrophication in raw water reservoirs for drinking water production in Norway and China are used to discuss interdisciplinary research and transdisciplinary processes organised through the DPSIR framework (drivers, pressures, states, impacts, and res…
Environmental values and attitudes among farmers in China – a case study in the watershed of Yuqiao reservoir of Tianjin Municipality, China
.
Explaining and understanding environmental actions in Chinese agriculture
Most of China’s surface waters are undergoing anthropogenic eutrophication, mainly due to leaching of phosphorus (P) from both sewage and agriculture. This is causing quality deterioration in their scarce water resources. The problem has been acknowledged by Chinese authorities and actions sought implemented, though expected ameliorations are on hold.This interdisciplinary study focuses on actions taken by farmers adjacent to Yuqiao reservoir; th…
Trans-disciplinarity required in understanding, predicting and dealing with water eutrophication
Eutrophication remains a challenge for water quality, and leaching of phosphorus (P) from agriculture remains usually the determining factor as point source emissions of sewage are mainly under control. The Morsa watershed, southeast of Oslo, is a case in point. In spite of abatement actions during the past 20 years, the total concentration of P in the lake has decreased less than expected, causing growing frustration and scepticism among farmers…
The role of learning and knowledge in adapting to climate change
Coping with climate change includes the role of learning and knowledge. Taking a process perspective, this article analyses how municipal officers in the Oslo region of Norway are acquiring knowledge and building competence for adapting to climate change. The article illustrates the interaction between elements of experiential learning, transformative learning and social learning as bases for adapting to emerging climate changes; each being neces…
Norwegian mayoral awareness of and attitudes towards climate change
The willingness of local politicians to implement measures for curbing greenhouse gas emissions and to adapt to emerging conditions is essential for successful climate change policies. This article reports findings from a survey of attitudes amongst Norwegian mayors, who prove to be fairly well informed about, and have confidence in, the climate change message. They think that Norway should do more to curb emissions, and that the municipal level …
Finance, Home Building, and Urban Residential Structuring
The aim of this article is to improve our understanding of finance in home building by introducing an actor perspective in structure-oriented theories of capital circulation. David Harvey's three-circuit theory, with fixity-motion processes and (de-/re)-territorialisation, is taken as the starting point. The analysis is based on a case study of Norwegian home-building finance, outlining the emerging structure of housing and finance under the Norw…

Is trust a driver for territorially embedded industrial systems? a case study of the home‐building industry in norway
Trust is said to be necessary for creating and maintaining territorially embedded industrial systems. On the basis of data for the Norwegian home‐building sector, this article analyses trust and price competition; how trust is built and dismantled; and trust and place. The main findings are that: trust and price competition interact, but trust is more important in the design and planning phases than in the construction phase; economic factors are…
The Norwegian Home-building Industry - Locally Embedded or in the Space of Flows
During the last 25 years the neoliberal institutional turn and globalization have caused profound structural changes and challenged our theoretical understandings. In this article the emerging structure of the Norwegian home-building industry is presented, with a focus on the interaction between different actors in the different stages and functions of the home-building network. The structure of employer-contractor relations in the liberalized ho…
