Sakkunnig kontroll avseende kulturvärden En undersökning av tillämpning och konsekvenser av certifieringssystemet

Abstract

This thesis investigates the system of certification of antiquarians that has been developed by The National Board of Housing in Sweden. The system of certification aims to facilitate the securing of heritage preservation according to the plan and building act, when changing a building. A largely amount of the certified antiquarians in Sweden are geographically located in Stockholm. This indicates that there is a much bigger market for certified antiquarian services in Stockholm compared to the rest of Sweden. The aim of this thesis is to investigate what causes the differences in conditions and demand of certified antiquarian services by compare the municipal handling of built heritage in Gothenburg, Stockholm and Malmö. The study also contains a questionnaire survey among the certified antiquarians in these three cities. The survey shows the participants view of the certification system and how it is applied. The Study shows that the conditions for a certification system in Stockholm are better because of how the commune handles built heritage. However the certification system in it self does not secure quality in preservation of buildings.
