Rationale: Why have you chosen this case for the landscape and democracy seminar?

In a fairly large city as Stockholm, landscape democracy challenges are up for discussion every day. The urban landscape is constantly challenged in a myriad of ways. Recently however, a new complex challenge has emerged. With a high number of refugees in Sweden during the fall of 2015, the government has asked municipalities to provide housing for those seeking asylum. Municipalities in the greater Stockholm area are thus planning temporary housing units to be constructed around the city. This has resulted in protests from local residents. This complex issue involves both concerns about the refugees moving in and the built environment. The challenges thus involved both social issues concerning refugees in general to the physical built landscapes in the neighbourhoods where temporary houses are planned. The municipalities and their planners thus must both navigate purely racist protests when a new project is advertised and also the concerns over the urban environment when they arrange information and participation efforts. These different issues are in realty sometimes hard to separate, thus resulting in a complex and important landscape democracy challenge.
