Jonas Monie Nordin – författare

Historisk arkeologi är ett perspektiv, verksamt i skärningspunkten mellan den materiella kulturen, de avbildande källmaterialen och de skriftliga källorna som tillför en rumslig dimension i studiet av det förflutna. Mellan medeltid och modernitet introducerar detta kunskapsfält genom att berätta om dess historia, metoder och resultat rörande de senaste 700-årens historia. Bokens fokus ligger på processer som den ökade skriftkulturen liksom digerdöden, den senmedeltida klimatkrisen och modernitetens genombrott. Tillsammans utgör de avgörande förändringsprocesser som kom att prägla samhället under mycket lång tid.Mellan medeltid och modernitet riktar sig till studenter i historisk arkeologi, arkeologi och övriga kulturhistoriska ämnen samt yrkesverksamma inom kulturarvssektorn i vid bemärkelse, men även till alla som är intresserade av det förflutna från senmedeltiden till idag.

The Scandinavian Early Modern World explores the early modern colonialism, globalization, and modernity in Scandinavia, along with its colonies, and its role in the shaping of the modern world.Scandinavians played an active role in early modern globalization and were present as traders, as colonialists, and as consumers in competition and collaboration with indigenous agents and other colonial actors in America, Africa, and India. This story is rarely told. The joint study of history, historical landscape, and material culture, from a Scandinavian vantage point, provides for a comprehensive and original interpretation of the birth of globalization and modernity. New perspectives and data are presented, deepening and challenging our knowledge of the long seventeenth century. In-depth analysis of case studies, encompassing four continents and their material entanglement, makes this book a unique contribution to historical archaeology.The Scandinavian Early Modern World aims at students and scholars of anthropology, archaeology, and history, alike, taking interest in the global connections of the long seventeenth century and the role of Scandinavia in that process.

Examining the archaeological material of the modern period, over a period of the last 500 years, this open access book presents a series of case studies that challenges the fallacy of Nordic egalitarianism. The widening gap between rich and poor Western countries is now a well-known phenomenon and, while Scandinavia has often been hailed as one of the regions where inequality has been the lowest, even here a similar trend toward widening inequality has been observed.The topic of inequality has long been a major focus of interest within archaeology, but the goal and novelty of this volume is to start with the problem of material disparity by asking what this means, rather than starting with the problem of social inequality and trying to map observable material disparities onto its various conceptualizations. Key themes include variations between urban and rural contexts, as well as geographical proximity to centres of commerce and industry, different local/cultural valuations of – especially consumer – goods and discard practices. The result is an original study of a wealth of material culture that tells us how extensive this inequality actually was and the different ways it appeared in various societies.The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com.
