Growing the Cloud: Investigating Mega Projects of the Digital Future in Sweden This paper is situated in the field of anthropological studies of technologies and infrastructures. It focuses on methodological challenges which anthropologists encounter while studying large-scale technological projects. In investigating the social effects of the data centre industry in northern Sweden, the paper describes the global Cloud’s local embededdness, and the local/ global relations which emerge in the course of this new industry’s implementation. It denaturalises imaginaries of scale, and analyses how scales are made and unmade in everyday practices, performed by different actors. The study contributes to our understanding of cross-border technological processes, by regarding scaling as political and governmental practice. Key words: mega projects, data centres, scaling, Sweden, anthropology of infrastructure
