Ambiguous Artefacts : Solar Collectors in Swedish Contexts. On Processes of Cultural Modification
Häftad bok. Socialantropologiska institutionen. 2000. 285 sidor.
Mycket gott skick.
Lättare spår av hantering finns på omslaget, samt ett svagt veck på baksidan, en tillskrift från författaren på titelbladet. I övrigt känns boken oläst med obruten rygg.

- This is a book about solar collectors and the place of these artefacts in a political energy debate that has aroused strong feelings in Sweden during the last twenty-five years. It is a book about the hopes for a less polluted earth, which solar collectors have come to symbolise, and a book a bout the ways in which problems in utilising solar energy are culturally perceived.
One main aim of this study has been to find out more about the conflicting perceptions of solar collectors as ‘saviours of the world’ and simultaneously as uninteresting or less credible artefacts that ‘may come in the future’. Another main purpose of the study has been to describe and explain those cultural processes of modification that are taking place around solar collectors in active attempts to integrate these into established cultural structures.
