Abstract:

Since the United States’ (US) invasion of Iraq in 2003 there has been an intensification of the battle between the rival ethnonationalisms for the control of Kirkuk. Kurds, Arabs and Turkmen are all trying to manoeuvre their ethnic group into positions of power in Kirkuk and as a result the governance has suffered. There has been little in the way of negotiations in order to reach a settlement on the issues that create conflict in Kirkuk. This thesis examines all the issues of conflict and proposes a resolution that deals with them all. The original contribution to the knowledge is the depth of the analysis, which has resulted in a thorough framework that includes all the details necessary to implement it and proposes methods that have not been put forward for Kirkuk before, such as: an international committee, the available cross border institutions, a multi-capital city, the creation of a new province, and making decisions in the council based on a weighted majority of 60% with 40% of two of the main three ethnic groups being in favour. Prior to this thesis, analyses on Kirkuk have been brief, have not addressed all the issues of conflict, and have only given general ideas without following through on them. Additionally this thesis has developed liberal consociational theory with regards to trans-regional self-determination disputes. Therefore, the concepts of cross border institutions, demilitarisation, multi-capital city, special status, international committee and regional power sharing are analysed within this context, thus furthering the consociational theory. This thesis includes an analysis of the relevant theories on power sharing in order to place Kirkuk within these. It is through this analysis that this thesis proposes a liberal consociational settlement for Kirkuk that addresses all the issues of dispute. In this thesis conflicts are viewed as not existing within a static status quo, but rather as being ever-changing. In acknowledging the ever-changing nature of conflicts, the thesis makes forecasts of socioeconomic changes, as these too impact upon the dynamics and what is effectively possible in any resolution.

Abstract:

The main objective of this thesis is to critically analyse the official Iraqi Kurdish National Discourse (KND) constructed by the two main Kurdish parties the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) and the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) in the struggle for the future status of Kirkuk. By deploying a post structuralist account of political discourse theory, as developed by Laclau and Mouffe, this thesis will try to answer three key questions; how was the official Kurdish National Discourse for Kirkuk discursively constructed by the main ruling parties?

Ali, Suhailah. "Evidence based strategies to establish population-based cervical cancer screening in Kirkuk, Iraq." Thesis, University of Plymouth, 2018. http://hdl.handle.net/10026.1/11872.

Full text

Abstract:

Background: Cervical cancer may be fatal to women if not identified and treated early. In Iraq, cervical cancer ranks as the 10th most frequent cancer among women between 15-44 years of age, with about 291 new cervical cancer cases diagnosed annually. Cervical cancer can be prevented in two ways: primary prevention aimed at preventing HPV infection through prophylactic HPV vaccinations; and secondary prevention aimed at preventing precancerous lesions from progressing into invasive lesions through screening. Cervical cancer screening is under researched in Iraq. It is clear that Iraq’s years of isolation and disorder has resulted in a loss of research capacity. Aim: To provide evidence–based strategies to establish population based cervical cancer screening services in Iraq. Methods: A mixed methods sequential exploratory design was used; an iterative mixed method approach which included the triangulation of qualitative, quantitative and systematic review methods. Results of all phases were used to develop an emergent theory around the barriers for establishing cervical screening programme and to provide evidence to enhance cervical cancer screening services to be established in Iraq. Findings: The findings from the systematic review indicated significant health inequalities for Arab Muslim women, in that no population-based cervical cancer screening programmes have been implemented in most of Western Asian and Middle Eastern Arab countries. Findings from the qualitative phase revealed gap in theoretical and practical knowledge among the health care professionals regarding cervical cancer screening programmes with a lack of the capacity and infrastructure to establish population based cervical screening programme in Kirkuk, Iraq. Also, results suggest that the health behaviour of women living in Kirkuk is influenced by cultural ‘stigma’ around the word ‘cancer’, in addition to women’s lack of awareness in relation to smear test and cervical screening. Conclusion: Women in Iraq are more likely to be diagnosed at an advanced, rather than early stage of cervical cancer. These women should be targeted by cervical cancer screening and health education programmes. Policy makers need to improve the cervical screening infrastructure and make the cervical screening service more accessible to women. The current opportunistic cervical screening services are insufficient; there is an urgent need to developing cervical cancer intervention programmes.

Bet-Shlimon, Arbella Herutha. "Kirkuk, 1918-1968: Oil and the Politics of Identity in an Iraqi City." Thesis, Harvard University, 2012. http://dissertations.umi.com/gsas.harvard:10533.

Full text

Abstract:

In this dissertation, I use methodological approaches from studies of urbanism, oil modernity, nation building, and identity formation to analyze the relationships between urban change, oil, state integration, and the politicization of group identities in the multiethnic Iraqi city of Kirkuk from 1918 to 1968. I argue that, in early to mid-twentieth-century Kirkuk, the oil industry, Baghdad’s policies, and the British neocolonial presence interacted with local conditions to produce the crystallization of ethnic group identities within a nascent domain of local politics. I find that at the time of the formation of the Iraqi state in the early 1920s, group identities in Kirkuk were fluid and local politics did not align clearly with ethnicities or other self-identities. Instead, they were largely subsumed under relations between more powerful external entities. Kirkukis’ political loyalties were based on which entity best served their interests—or, as was often the case, were positioned against a side based on its perceived hostility to their concerns. These political dynamics began to shift with Kirkuk’s incorporation into Baghdad’s domain, the beginnings of the Iraq Petroleum Company’s exploration just northwest of urban Kirkuk, and the end of British mandate rule. The Iraqi central government’s integration efforts exacerbated fault lines between emergent Kurdish, Turkmen, and Arab ethnic communities at a time when the city’s population and its urban fabric were growing rapidly. The oil industry, which provided the livelihood for a substantial percentage of Kirkuk’s population, became the focus of Communist-led labor organization. Consequently, the Iraqi government, the British government, and the oil company attempted to counter Communist influence through urban development schemes. The combination of urban growth and the expansion of discursive activities stimulated the emergence of a distinct civic identity and an accompanying arena of local politics in which Kirkuk’s ethnic communities were deeply invested. After the destabilizing effects of the Iraqi revolution in 1958, a cycle of intercommunal violence began in Kirkuk along increasingly apparent ethnic lines. Escalating conflict between Baghdad and the Kurdish movement for control of Kirkuk after 1958 fueled these tensions further. The reverberations of the revolution’s aftermath are still evident today.

Abstract:

Kirkuk Group Formations (in addition to Avanah and Jaddala Formations) of southern Kurdistan were studied in order to determine biostratigraphy, chronostratigraphy and sequence stratigraphic relationships, in addition to major sediment producing environments and type of platform configuration. As well as to determine the paragenetic sequences with special attention to micrite diagenesis and its effect on microporosity. Five biozones were identified in the study area in which two of them from Middle- Late Eocene: Alveolina biozone (AL) and Discocyclina biozone (DI) with three biozones from the Oligocene-Early Miocene of Kirkuk Group: Nummulites fichteli biozone (NF); Praerhapydionina delicata biozone (PD) and Austrotrillina howchini biozone (AH). Twenty two microfacies were identified and interpreted as having been deposited in a ramp setting based on lateral variations of the microfacies; gradual deepening with no evidence of slope break or effective barrier. A depositional model has been generated from the overall palaeoenvironmental interpretations of the microfacies in which the analysed microfacies indicates palaeoenvironments ranging from terrestrial to open marine settings; nine major depositional environmental zones have been identified and correlated with the standard Cenozoic ramp model of Buxton and Pedley (1989). These zones distributed across the ramp setting dipping southwest, in which zone 1 is terrestrial deposit; zone 2, 3, 4 and 5 are belonging to inner ramp; zone 6, 7 and 8 are belong to middle ramp and zone 9 is belong to outer ramp and basinal settings. A paragenetic sequence has been derived recording eleven diagenetic processes affecting the Kirkuk Group which are subdivided into an eogenetic, mesogenetic and telogenetic stages. Furthermore, micrite matrices were studied from both shallow and deeper marine settings using SEM, trace elements and carbon/oxygen isotopes; the result shows the different sources; inner-mid ramp muds have a hemi-pelagic source and could have been mostly sourced from high-Mg calcite benthic foraminifera and red algae, and possible partial aragonite dominating; in contrast, the outer ramp matrices, were sourced from plankton, are largely composed of low-Mg calcite, as they are mineralogically stable. Although the exact origin would be difficult to ascertain after diagenesis. From the above two different rock fabrics, two distinct pore systems were identified: (1) low microporosity inner-mid ramp microfacies, it was sourced from metastable precursors and were recrystallized and replaced under meteoric waters, undergoing loss of primary porosity; (2) higher microporosity outer ramp/basinal microfacies, composed of more stable low-Mg calcite that underwent less recrystallization and retained some primary porosity. The Kirkuk Group succession comprises of two shallowing upward 4th order cycle within one 3rd order cycle located between two unconformable surfaces at lower and upper boundaries which can be correlated to the global regression of sea level. The first 4th order cycle is located at Rupelian and composed of only the Sheikh Alas Formation and the second 4th order cycle is located at Chattian-Early Aquitanian and composed of the Bajawan, Anah, Azkand and Ibrahim Formations. Two different depositional sequences with different thicknesses were developed due to the synsedimentary Khanaqin Basement Fault which cross-cuts the study area and was activate during deposition.

Saeed, Nawshirwan Hussen. "Governance in post-2003 Kirkuk : power-sharing in a divided society and prospects for consociational democracy." Thesis, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/10443/3347.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis explores how the problem of governance should be solved in the divided city of Kirkuk. As a microcosm of Iraq, Kirkuk has invariably refracted the overall climate of the country. Accordingly, one of the main problems of Kirkuk is its unresolved governance model that, if solved, could positively affect the political stability in the city. To solve this problem, this research suggests the adoption of a specific form of a consociational power-sharing arrangement. In the literature, a contrast is often drawn between ‘corporate’ and ‘liberal’ forms of consociations. However, this study argues that the adoption of a combination of both the corporate and the liberal forms of consociational power-sharing is crucial to addressing the demands of each ethnic group in the city and for maintaining political stability and diversity. But it also argues that building a lasting peace in Kirkuk cannot be achieved only by focusing on a top-down elite-level solution, rather bottom-up initiatives through creating bridging social capital at the grassroots level are necessary. In other words, it argues that the problem of governance can be solved in Kirkuk by taking advantage of the elements of two main theories of conflict management, accommodation (consociationalism) and integration (bridging social capital). This conclusion is based on two sources of evidence. First, the Iraqi legal documents such as the constitution and the laws issued by the Iraqi Council of Representatives, and secondly, empirical evidence collected from the political elites of Kirkuk, the Kurdistan Region and Baghdad.

Abstract:

This study is a historical analysis of Turkish-Iraqi relations from the Gulf War of 1990 up to the Iraqi elections of 2005 and the end of Transitional Administration Law (TAL) and prior to the permanent constitution. This study attempted to explain how Turkish-Iraqi relations entered into a new phase with the Gulf War of 1990. In this year, Iraq invaded Kuwait. Following this invasion, Iraq was attacked by coalition forces and at the end of this war, Iraq was nearly divided when a safe haven was created for the Kurds in northern Iraq. In this regard, this thesis paid attention to three factors that had significant impact on the foreign policy of Turkey towards Iraq: a de facto Kurdish state in northern part of this country and apprehension about the possibility of an independent Kurdish state, the existance of PKK in northern Iraq as a result of a power vacuum there and concerns about the future fate of Turkomans in Iraq and attempts to protect their rights. This study has demonstrated how Kurdish question has influenced Turkey&rsquo
s policy towards Iraq and restricted its options.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis concerns the differences in how ethinic groups co-exist in two different environments in the same country, with a focus on the ethno-political. My research questions are: Why are ethnic or interpersonal relations characterized differently in different regions? How and why do conflicts or agreements arise in specific environments? The aim is to understand the connection between inter-ethnic relations and environmentally specific factors. I am concerned with those mechanisms and processes which determine the type of ethnic relation – as conflict or mutual understanding - in specific environments. The thesis uses case studies of two contrasting multiethnic cities with different interethnic relations – Erbil and Kirkuk in Kurdistan/Iraq. My explanatory model consists of four main factors: I) historical factors in terms of critical events; II) institutional factors such as institutional efficiency and security; III) structural factors such as group size, territorial base and different tolerance systems; and IV) social relational factors such as the significance of inter-ethnic contacts and social capital. The empirical work demonstrates that the relations between the above mentioned factors in the respective environments determine the outcome of the inter-ethnic relations. The results show that one factor can be more important than another factor, but how the factors impact upon one another and under what circumstances is of significance. The presentation of environmentally specific differences shows that ethnic groups do not have static boundaries and are not necessarily hostile to one another. Conflict is not the given form of relationship between ethnic groups. That is, the result can be read as a critique of those who necessarily see potential conflicts between groups with cultural differences and those who essentialize cultural groups. In this context one can see a chain of interrelated factors; the relevance of which is dependent on the specific situation. Some of the negative factors that can increase the possibility of conflict and decrease the possibility for peaceful co-existence include: Instability in the political climate; insecurity; institutional ineffectiveness; segregation; undefined relations of power; and an ethnic composition maintaining the balance of power. If these factors combined result in a high level of complexity, which makes ethnicity stand out in terms of ethnic competition, the likelihood of ethnic conflict is significant.

Abstract:

Diplomityön aiheena on suunnitelma Ylivieskan uudeksi kirkoksi pääsiäisenä 2016 palaneen kirkon viereiseen Kirkkopuistoon. Aihe pohjautuu keväällä 2017 järjestettyyn yleiseen arkkitehtikilpailuun, jossa kilpailutehtävänä oli suunnitella Ylivieskalle uusi kirkkorakennus ja samalla kehittää alueen ympäristöä. Diplomityössä kilpailuun jätettyä ehdotusta on jatkokehitetty ja jalostettu arkkitehtikilpailun jälkeen. Suunnitelman tavoitteena on ollut perinteisestä suomalaisesta kirkkoarkkitehtuurista elementtejään ottava, kuitenkin muotokieleltään nykyaikainen kirkkorakennus, joka mahdollistaa monenlaista toimintaa ja ihmisten kohtaamisia. Kirkkorakennus on kompakti sinkkiin verhottu puurakenteinen rakennusmassa. Rakennuksen harjakatto ja sen päällä oleva kattolyhty kohoaa ympärillä olevien rakennusten yli ja rakennus muodostaa uuden, arvokkaan maamerkin alueelle. Julkisivun suuret avaukset etelään ja pohjoiseen avaavat rakennusta hautausmaan ja Kirkkopuiston suuntaan. Kirkosta avautuu näkymiä palaneen kirkon jalustaa kohti ja Kirkkopuistoon. Kirkon pääsisäänkäynti on sankarihautausmaan puolelta, jolloin kirkon eteen muodostuu uusi kirkkoaukio. Aukion kulmaan eteläreunalle on sijoitettu uusi kellotapuli, joka noudattaa kirkkorakennuksen yksinkertaista muotokieltä. Kirjallinen osuus on jaettu kolmeen osaan. Ensimmäinen osa kuvaa arkkitehtikilpailun taustaa, miljöötä ja analysoi tulevan kirkon paikkaa. Toisessa osuudessa pohditaan suunnitteluprosessin kulkua ja esitellään arkkitehtikilpailuun jätetty ehdotus. Lopuksi syvennytään itse suunnitelmaan jota tarkastellaan kaupunkikuvallisesta näkökulmasta edeten lopuksi detaljitasolle
The subject of the thesis is the design of a new church for the city of Ylivieska after the previous church was destroyed by fire in 2016. This work is based on the answer to an architectural competition organized in spring 2017. The competition program was to design a new church building in Ylivieska and develop the surrounding area at the same time. The proposal presented in that thesis have been developed and refined after the architecture competition. The aim of the design has been to capture the elements of traditional Finnish church, and integrate them into a modern church building that offers a variety of activities and promotes people encounters. The church building is a compact zinc-plated wooden building. The pitched roof of the building and its top lantern rises above the surrounding buildings to create a valuable landmark in the area. Large openings to the south and north open the building to the city and the cemetery park. The remains of the burnt church and the old church park are both visible from the building. The main entrance of the church is on the side of the military graveyard where a new forecourt is going to be built. A new bell tower is located at the south edge of the square, following the simple design language of the church building. This thesis is divided in three parts. The first part describes the background of the architectural competition, the milieu and analyses the place of the future church. The second part discusses the design process and presents the proposal submitted to the architectural competition. Finally, we deepen ourselves into a plan starting from a city scale to finish at the detail level

Abstract:

Etätyö ja etäjohtaminen ovat arkipäivää Suomessa sekä maailmalla. Etätyö on kohtuullisen paljon käytetty työmuoto useilla eri aloilla ja etätyön tekeminen ja teettäminen itsessään ovat hyvinkin ajankohtaisia aiheita. Etätyö palvelukeskusmallissa käytettynä on kuitenkin hieman harvinaisempi aikamme ilmiö. Yritysten muuttuneet toimintamallit, taantuma, toiminnan tehostaminen ja eläköityminen vaativat uudenlaisia ratkaisuja ja näkökulmia sekä myös uudenlaista johtajuutta. Tässä tutkimuksessa annetaan puheenvuoro seurakuntien mahdollisille tuleville etätyöntekijöille sekä Kirkon palvelukeskuksen eli Kipan esimiehille. Tutkimuksen tarkoitus on selvittää mitkä ovat mahdollisten etätyöntekijöiden sekä Kirkon palvelukeskuksen esimiesten ajatukset etätyöstä, etäjohtamisesta ja niihin liittyvistä teemoista Kirkon palvelukeskuksessa. Lisäksi tarkoituksena on selvittää mitä henkilöstöhallinnon kannalta olennaista tietoa saamme seurakunnan työntekijöiden ja Kirkon palvelukeskuksen esimiesten etätyötä koskevien vastausten kautta. Tämän tutkielman tarkoitus on myös valottaa etätyön taustalla olevaa teoriapohjaa ja sitä kautta auttaa Kirkon palvelukeskuksen työntekijöitä luomaan parhaat mahdolliset etätyön edellytykset ja käytänteet. Teoreettinen viitekehys käsittää etätyön, etäjohtamisen ja palvelukeskukset. Tutkimusote on laadullinen. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin sähköpostitse lähetettävien kyselylomakkeiden avulla. Kyselyyn vastasi yhteensä kolmetoista seurakunnan työntekijää sekä viisi Kirkon palvelukeskuksen esimiestä. Saatu aineisto käsiteltiin anonyymisti. Tutkimuksen perusteella voidaan sanoa, että mahdollisten tulevien etätyöntekijöiden ja Kipan esimiesten vastaukset auttavat paljon mahdollisen parhaan etätyömallin luomisessa. Tutkimuksen yleistettävyyttä rajoittavat metodi- ja menetelmävalinnat sekä kontekstin tilanne- ja aikasidonnaisuus.

Abstract:

Régulièrement décrite comme le fruit d'un conflit identitaire déclenché par des interventions extérieures, la guerre civile irakienne est d'abord le résultat d'une intense compétition partisane. À travers une enquête de terrain menée de 2010 à 2017 au sein du gouvernorat de Kirkouk, cette thèse montre la manière dont les partis irakiens pénètrent l'État et produisent la société. En particulier, notre travail interroge la manière dont les partis captent les ressources étatiques qui leur permettent la mise en place de politiques d'ingénieries démographiques, la violence étant par ailleurs une modalité d'action centrale du jeu politique. En conséquence, une nouvelle hiérarchie communautaire s'installe qui modifie les structures socio-économiques et la vie quotidienne de la population. À partir de 2011, les inégalités qui résultent de ces transformations encouragent des protestations unanimistes (et non communautaires), mais la violence interdit le développement de ce mouvement et la marginalisation des Arabes sunnites facilitera finalement l'émergence de l'État islamique. Entre 2014 et 2017, la guerre contre l'EI radicalise encore les projets politiques de l'ensemble des partis, mais aboutit paradoxalement à un renforcement de l'État qui revient par le biais d'une politique de décharge milicienne et parvient à reprendre Kirkouk aux partis kurdes irakiens en octobre 2017
Regularly described as the result of an identity conflict triggered by external interventions, the Iraqi civil war is first and foremost the result of intense partisan competition. Through an investigation conducted from 2010 to 2017 in the Kirkuk governorate, this thesis demonstrates how Iraqi parties penetrate the state and produce society. In particular, my work questions how parties capture the state resources that enable them to implement demographic engineering policies, violence being also a central modality of action in the political game. As a result, a new identity hierarchy is emerging that is changing the socio-economic structures and daily lives of the population. From 2011, the inequalities resulting from these transformations will encourage unanimous (and not sectarian) protests, but violence ultimately prohibits the development of this movement and the marginalization of Sunni Arabs will ultimately facilitate the emergence of the Islamic State. Between 2014 and 2017, the war against lS further radicalizes the political projects of all political parties, but paradoxically leads to a strengthening of the State, which returns through a devolution of power in favor of militias and, in October 2017, manages to take Kirkuk back from the Iraqi Kurdish parties

Abstract:

I Statens Vegvesen er det planlagt å bygge en ny RV 717 mellom Sund og Bradden i Rissa som ligger på halvøyen Fosen nordvest for Trondheim i Sør-Trøndelag fylke. Prosjekteringen ble tidligere gjort i 2009, men prosjektet ble stoppet på grunn av store geotekniske utfordringer i skråningsstabilitet.Det er en slak skråning mellom Rein kirke og Botn innsjø som består av sensitiv leire. Skråningen ligger på andre siden av innsjøen hvor ''Rissaraset'' tok sted. Området har blitt undersøkt tidligere med flere laboratorieforsøk, totalsonderinger, CPTU og R-CPTU (resistivitetsmålinger). I 2011 ble det gjennomført supplerende grunnundersøkelser ved Rein kirke. Undersøkelsene bestod av CPTU, sylinderprøveserier og blokkprøver. Fire blokkprøver ble tatt av NTNU, støttet av Statens Vegvesen.Denne oppgaven handler om revurdering av geoteknisk problemstilling ved Rein kirke basert på nye CPTU-tolkninger med høyere kvalitet og resultater fra blokkprøver. Alle geotekniske og geofysiske data tilgjengelig om området ved Rein kirke ble samlet opp. Flere rapporter og tidligere masteroppgaver ble gjennomgått og samlet inn sammen med nye undersøkelser. Forsøksplanen var å utføre treaksialforsøkene med varierende tøyningshastighet for å kartlegge hastighetseffekten for Rissaleire. Et anisotropiforhold ble etablert. Prekonsolideringstrykk og krypparametrene ble funnet i CRS og i trinnvise ødometre. Tidligere ble det antatt normalkonsolidert leire i denne skråningen, men en revurdering viste en overkonsolidert leire. Ut ifra samlet informasjon om tidligere undersøkelser og med resultater fra blokkprøver ble tidligere antatt lagdelig revurdert. Nye CPTU, ble benyttet i korrelasjoner mellom CPTU og blokkprøver. Resultatene i kombinasjon med rutineundersøkelser viste at det ikke er kvikkleire i strandsonen, men bare noen få meter i midten av skråningen og at det er lite sannsynlig at et retrogressivt skred oppstår.En ny lagdeling for profil 3-3 og nye su-profiler ble brukt i skrånigsstabilitetsberegning, i GeoSuite. Nye resultater viste en forbedring av stabiliteten, avlastning av sandlaget ble vurdert.

Abstract:

The philosopher Heraclitus has been renowned for a great amount of time. Despite that fact the remaining fragments of his work have just recently been assembled to the composed form they have today. Among these fragments there are a couple of terms that stands out amongst others; one of them is the term logos. The main focus of this thesis is devoted to the mystery and usage of the term logos, which comes into a great display in fragment number 50. The ambition of the thesis is to evaluate and compare three interpreters’ readings of Heraclitus while having a close focus on his usage of the word logos in fragment 50. One of these interpreters, Martin Heidegger, may have the most radical reading of Heraclitus’ logos among the three. Because of his philosophical standpoint he interprets Heraclitus in a way which has never been done before. The other two do not have Heidegger’s phenomenological perspective, by which Heidegger broadens our understanding of Heraclitus fragments, which isn’t as the thesis will show unproblematic. The other two interpreters G.S. Kirk and Charles H. Kahn both do a thorough reading and translation of all the fragments, whereas Heidegger is more selective in his reading of the fragments. Heidegger doesn’t have the same intention in his interpretation as Kirk or Kahn; therefore may he be said to be more selective in his reading of Heraclitus. While Kirk and Kahn depict a more naturalistic ethic tendency in Heraclitus, Heidegger illustrates an ontological tendency which speaks about being and its’ constitution and expression as such. At the end of the thesis there is an analytic part which compares and investigates the possible difficulties in comparing the three readings. The thesis acknowledges the possibility of impossibility in ever understanding the extent of Heraclitus thoughts around logos; the three interpreters hopefully show the scope of understanding Heraclitus’ thoughts around this term.

Abstract:

Thesis advisor: Davarian Baldwin
The multi-instrumentalist Rahsaan Roland Kirk (1936-1978) was one of the most thrilling jazz performers of the Sixties and Seventies, wowing audiences with his lively blend of musical styles and his unique ability to play multiple saxophones at once. Still, one particularly exciting aspect of his life is unfamiliar to most, jazz fans included. In 1970, Kirk formed an activist group which he dubbed the Jazz and People’s Movement (JPM), with the purpose of lobbying television networks to broadcast more jazz and black musicians. And in order to ensure the networks took the call seriously, the JPM seized the television studios by storm – during the taping of major prime-time programs! The JPM was one among many self-help collectives working in New York and Chicago at the time, all seeking to mediate the material and cultural stresses facing musicians following jazz’s sharp decline in the 1960s. Kirk’s movement was unique, however, in identifying mainstream culture industries as a key site of struggle in the politics of production, documentation, and dissemination. And the JPM’s dynamic public disturbance tactics contrasted with the quieter, inward-looking programs of other collectives. Its aesthetic inclusivism also set it apart from most other jazz community groups which heavily favored avant-garde music. Under Kirk’s leadership, the JPM demonstrated that the mass production and consumption of art and culture had important political relevance and power for the liberation of black music specifically, and of black America more generally. Although the movement was short-lived and did not achieve many of its stated goals, it provides a visible intersection of music, race, and society, and is thus a highly valuable historical subject. This thesis explores the impact of Kirk’s political and aesthetic ideals on his conception of the JPM; the consistently interconnected material and cultural underpinnings of the movement’s agenda; the group’s protest actions, and the accompanying reactions in the music community and the press; the causes of the JPM’s dissolution; and the movement’s broader impact and legacy

Uppsatsens syfte är att belysa formandet av diakoners yrkesidentitet. Fokus har legat på uppsatsens forskningsfråga; Hur förbereder utbildningen de studerande till uppdraget som diakon i Svenska kyrkan (SvK) respektive i Den norske kirke (DNK)? Jag har jämfört diakonens utbildning och uppdrag mellan Svenska kyrkan och Den norske kirke. Materialet har bestått av styrdokument såsom Kyrkoordning i SvK och Kirkelov i DNK, vigningsordningar och protokoll från styrande organ samt utbildningsplaner för diakonutbildningen. För att fördjupa begreppet diakoni har jag studerat Biskopsbrev om diakoni i SvK och Plan for diakoni i DNK, med hjälp av nyckelorden förhållningssätt och handling. I min fördjupning av diakonens yrkesidentitet har jag diskuterat begreppen kall och profession. Diakonens yrkesidentitet är påverkad av tre delar. Dels utbildningen och relationen mellan välfärdsprofessionen och kallet. Dels uppdraget och relationen mellan uppdraget som det beskrivs i officiella dokument, vigningslöfte och möjligheten att praktisera sitt uppdrag. Och till sist diakonens vigningstjänst och relationen till liturgin

Before the Steeples Fall

Facility Management (FM) techniques applied to churches, with emphasis on the churches of the Diocese of Møre

The church is a building old and tall,

Standing though steeples are falling.

Fell into ruins steeples all,

Bells are still chiming and calling…

N. F. S. Grundtvig, 1837

This hymn describes the churches as old tumbledown buildings, and throughout history many churches have suffered this fate. On the other hand, few buildings have received as much attention and care as the churches. In the year 1024, the assembly of Moster decided that the King was to be responsible for providing the priests while the people were to maintain the churches. Since then, the building and maintenance of the parish church has been the largest task of the Norwegian local community, at least until the last part of the 19.th century.

What is the state of our churches today? How do we manage them through their life cycle before the steeples fall? And how should we best take care of them to avoid letting them fall into a state of decay and disrepair? The Facility Management (FM) project – and this dissertation – discusses these questions

Abstract:

Abstract Adult education provided by society has been on the rise. From the Church's standpoint, however, adult education has not been developed sufficiently to meet the demands of today. In my study I deal with the Finnish Evangelical Lutheran concepts of adult education, adult learning and teaching as well as the underlying concepts of man during the years 1958 to 1990. The main sources for my thesis are the documents concerning adults in the Total Plan for Church Education and the specialist discussion in the magazine of Kristillinen kasvatus. In addition, I look at the supplementary material of the adult education of the beginning of the 1980's. As the theoretical basis I have the framework of adult educational philosophy and learning theory (behaviorist, cognitive-constructive and humanistic). My method of study is a qualitative content analysis. The Christian concept of man as an open concept of man enables making good use of knowledge. Yet the tension between the theological and the pedagogical framework is evident. The relation of faith and education is defined as dialectic and the relation of theology and pedagogics is defined as dialogic. The adult right for the kind of adult education that supports personal growth is defended, the adult education of society is criticized because of its emphasis on utility. The discussion conveys the experience of an adult not being seen as a subject but being made into an object instead, which refers to the behaviorist concept of man. The humanistic concept of man is given support, there is a certain boundary aspect in relation to man's goodness and unrealistic educational optimism, but it is also the Christian concept of man that considers it man's duty to develop himself. The emphasis on life-long learning awakes one to see that the idea is based on the grounds of the Church. Living as a Christian is a life-long growth and learning process. Adult education is most generally understood as supportive to the holistic growth of an adult. When setting educational goals the behaviorist view is given up and the setting of the goals in interaction with adults is emphasized. The relation to the adult education of society is defined as complementary and advanced. Along with the Total Plan for Church Education largely based on behaviorist model, it is learning, however, that is regarded as more important than teaching. While knowledge cannot be transmitted, the process nature of learning cognitive-constructively is emphasized. In adult education learning is seen as humanistic growth, growing humanistically. Freire's educational philosophy gives support to seeing adults as subjects in a parish. Parish pedagogics wishes to make parishes into intergenerational learning communities. Adult teaching needs to change from the one-way communication of the Catechism tradition into a dialogue. Interaction and making use of experience are considered integral elements in adult encounter. Different concepts of learning live side by side in the Church. The humanistic concept of learning has gained a footing since the 1970's in the field of adult education, especially in supplementary training. On the official and specialist level the adult educational thinking of the Church seems to have kept up with pedagogical knowledge. Teaching methods may change in parishes when parish workers adopt a new concept of learning, which is a challenge to education.

Abstract:

This case study was made in Kiru Valley in the northeast Tanzania in order to study the water management to get a picture of which institutions that are involved, how conflicts are resolved, and also to see if all farmers in the area have an influence in the management. The area consists of big-scale farmers, small-scale farmers with IFAD irrigation scheme and small-scale farmers without irrigation scheme. The irrigation scheme was built in 2004 in the villages Mawemairo and Matufa. Mapea village is located downstream and has got less water after the scheme was built. The case study was conducted by semi-structured interviews with some officials at different institutions in the District, Mawemairo and Mapea and also with some farmers in Mawemairo. The results were mainly analysed with Integrated Water Resources Management approach which have been adapted by Tanzania government. Mawemairo and Matufa have established a Water Users Association (WUA) and the water management seems to work quite good for those who are members of this. But those farmers who are not members of a WUA seem to be outside of the management of the rivers in Kiru Valley. What is missing is a platform where all relevant stakeholders in Kiru Valley, like farmers, can participate in the decision-making and where conflicts can be resolved.

Abstract:

This thesis reasserts Alexander Henderson’s prominent place as the leading clerical spokesman for the Scottish Covenanters during the British Revolutions (1637-1646). Older biographies were hagiographical, portraying Henderson as a hero in the cause of liberty. Recent scholarly works on the Covenanter movement have often failed to do justice to its clerical leaders and their religious ideas. This thesis aims to correct both. Focusing on covenanting, preaching, ecclesiology and pamphleteering it reassesses Henderson’s public leadership especially in regard to the central role of religion. This thesis outlines Henderson’s various means of public communication, his self-fashioning as a leader, and how he was effective as a public figure in early modern Scotland. It begins with Alexander Henderson’s preparation for public service and his role as co-author of the National Covenant (1638), in which he popularized covenant theology as a political instrument focused on the issue of idolatry. It assesses Henderson’s preaching, in which he personalized the national struggles, and fused Scotland’s frustration over rule of Charles I with the popular hope for a blessed providential destiny. Henderson used a subtle but developing eschatology, providing Scotland with a greater sense of national identity. This is the first study to emphasise and to explore Henderson’s critical contribution to the Covenanter pamphleteering, as the most important author and/or editor of covenanter propaganda. Henderson led the movement in using pamphlets to argue for the duty of self-defence, and the obligations of ordinary men and women in early modern Scotland. Henderson developed an eschatological ecclesiology, raising presbyterian polity to a place of fundamental importance in the struggles with Charles I. This helped to provide the covenanters and Scotland with a greater sense of divine destiny, while also making it more difficult to forge a compromise at the Westminster Assembly.

Full text

Abstract:

The thesis is the first full scale analysis of the hundreds of untapped parochial sources created by the Kirk of Scotland during the mid-seventeenth century. By taking a thirteen-year period of study, these documents allow a significant assessment of how parishes balanced the practice of Reformed religion on a day-to-day basis, with the emerging backdrop of war and invasion. This takes our historical appreciation of the Kirk away from high-level politics and into the heart of communities. The findings of this thesis illustrate the depth of activity and flexibility in Scottish parish life during the mid-seventeenth century, showing how the Presbyterian Kirk survived the internal wars and foreign invasions of the mid-seventeenth century. As Kirk leaders become increasingly concerned with the sins of political disaffection and with wars affecting parishes, ministers and sessions entered into an active dialogue with local communities seeking ecclesiastical services as normal. Such conclusions display the Kirk as a living and evolving entity, rather than a monolithic body. This negotiation ensured that Reformed services continued at the centre of communal life and that the Kirk emerged from the Civil Wars into a restored monarchy still holding its position as the national church in Scotland. The thesis also illustrates that mid-seventeenth-century Scotland did not experience a distinct ‘second reformation’, but that reforming processes were on going. This defines the mid-seventeenth century as less of a modernising moment, than a period that constantly looked into the past. The desires of Kirk leaders were couched in a much older terminology, sharing the concerns of their Reformed forebears. While the context of the National Covenant altered the Kirk’s national standing, it continued to operate in the same, negotiated, manner it had since the mid-sixteenth century.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis examines the built environment and culture of Scotland between 1560 and 1645 by analysing church buildings erected during the period. The mid-sixteenth century ecclesiastical Reformation and mid-seventeenth-century political and ecclesiastical tumult in Scotland provide brackets that frame the development of this physical aspect of Scottish cultural history. This thesis draws most heavily on architectural and ecclesiastical history, and creates a compound of the two methods. That new compound brings to the forefront of the analysis the people who produced the buildings and for whom the church institution operated. The evidence used reflects this dual approach: examinations of buildings themselves, where they survive, of documentary evidence, and of contemporary and modern maps support the narrative analysis. The thesis is divided into two sections: Context and Process. The Context section cements the place of the cultural contributions made by ecclesiastical buildings to Scottish history by analysing the ecclesiastical historical, theological, and political contexts of buildings. The historical analysis helps explain why, for example, certain places managed to build churches successfully while others took much longer. The creative tension between these on-the-ground institutions and theoretical ideas contributed to Scotland’s ability to produce cultural spaces. The Process section analyses the narratives of individual buildings in several different steps: Preparing, Building, Occupying, and Relating. These steps connected people with the physical entity of a church building. The Preparing chapter shows how many reasons in Scotland there were to initiate a building project. The Building chapter uses financial, design, and work narratives to tease out the intricacies of individual church stories. Occupying and Relating delve into later histories of individual congregations to understand how churches sat within the world about them. Early modern Scottish church building was immensely varied: the position, style, impact, purpose, and success of church buildings were different across the realm. The manner people building and using churches reacted to their environments played no small role in forming habits for future action. Church buildings thus played a role establishing who early modern Scottish people were, what their institutions did, and how their spirituality was lived daily.

Full text

Abstract:

This thesis studied the experience of worship in Scotland in the first generations after the Scottish Protestant Reformation. It was inspired by the realisation that earlier historiography had been a denominational battle-ground whose dogmatism had obscured the view of worship in the parish. Aonghus MacKechnie’s phrase, ‘Dour-Mongers All?’ sums up the leading question; was Reformed worship as austere and colourless as its detractors and advocates suggested? Questions surrounding the key components of Reformed worship: architecture, liturgy, music and preaching have more recently been addressed with less sectarian interest, but these individual strands have tended to be studied in isolation. In terms of the experience of worship, they belong together. Traditionally, the period 1560-1638 has been used as the period defining the first phase of the Reformed Kirk, with the National Covenant of 1638 marking the end of what could be called the experimental phase of the new dispensation. However, 1559 was chosen as the starting point to recognise the significant changes to worship that began with the “cleansing” of the churches and friaries of Perth and St Andrews in that year. The terminal date of 1617 marked King James VI’s return to Scotland, during which worship at Holyrood Palace was conducted in the manner of the English court both in terms of liturgical materials, music, and the refurbishment of the Chapel Royal. This proved to be a portent of James’ vision for liturgical change by statute in the Five Articles of Perth that were a significant watershed for the Kirk. Whilst it took another 20 years for the full outworking of this policy under his son Charles I, after 1617 the vibrant and complex worship culture of the Scottish Kirk that had been developed since 1559 began to be squeezed. That culture became a victim of the polemicized battle between extreme Scottish and English Reformed models advocated in the growing controversy over the relationship between Church, Crown and State within the Three Kingdoms. By 1650, an austere new psalter and worship directory had been adopted by the victors and the diversity and richness of the earlier Scottish worship culture had been lost. The first part of the necessarily multi-disciplinary thesis explores the experience of worship by isolating its key components: church buildings and furnishings, liturgical material, and singing. It does this by analysing the surviving material culture and the written and visual documentary evidence of church buildings and interior furnishings used for worship after 1559; surveying the nature, extent and use of the liturgical material included within the Psalme Buiks, with particular focus on the Henrie Charteris edition of 1596; and exploring the development and impact of the new and popular phenomenon of metrical Psalm-singing. The second part assesses the contribution of four significant ministers: John Davidson, James Melville, William Cowper, and John Welch, examining their lives, writing and preaching and judging how their contribution enriched the experience of worship in their parishes. This evidence is used to reconstruct the experience of worship in this period and show that it was vibrant and compelling, influenced in its raw materials by much from outside Scotland but strongly developed in the diverse contexts of Scottish parishes.
