Författare: Olof Stjernström

Olof är docent i kulturgeografi och forskar kring samhällsplanering, befolkningsgeografi och politisk geografi. Inom samhällsplanering har Olof bland annat tittat närmare på skärningspunkten kommunal planering och skogsresursen, markägandet och markägarens värderingar och uppfattningar om skogens olika intressenter och användningsområden. Äganderätten är central men ägandet har även en koppling till allmänhetens syn på och behov av mark för friluftsliv. Olof är verksam vid institutionen för geografi och ekonomisk historia vid Umeå universitet.
