Maps E-H show clusters with high scores on factor 2; all migrants, large scale neighbourhoods (green line). Maps I-K show clusters with high scores on factor 1; European migrants, large scale neighbourhoods (red line). Map L shows clusters with low scores on all factors, i.e. few migrants. Average factors scores are shown in the inset diagrams. The colour maps on the right side show the cluster composition in Stockholm and south western Sweden. The table shows factor loadings.Source data: Swedish register data, authors’ calculations.

This case study is an account of the 2014-2016 effort to expand a Swedish research database called the Uppsala Birth Cohort Multigenerational Study. The research project collected and photographed available data on school quality from local, regional, and national Swedish archives. The discovery of a widespread data quality issue in the existing database ultimately prevented the completion of the data collection and the execution of the planned research. A narrative is given about the challenges of conducting a complex, multistage archival data collection. Some of the problems that were encountered are mentioned. Practical methods and strategies that were used to collect the relevant data from the archival material are discussed. The methods used in the conversion and entry of some of this material into an electronic, numerical database format are also reviewed. SAGE Research Methods Cases Part 2. Educational quality, birth characteristics, scholastic and employment outcomes for two generations of Swedish children

ASSESS

Obscure Light opens in silence with a black frame. A preface in white letters conveys the historical context of Portuguese fascism (1926-1974), the horrific results of Salazar’s dictatorship (1932-1970), including the long term incarceration of generations of ‘Communists’, and the transnational trauma of the colonial war (1961-1974). Similar to the previous two film, Still Life (Natureza Morta. Visages d’une Dictature, 2005) and 48 (2010), Obscure Light (2017) involves the viewer in a material, critical and poetic enactment of rare archival images and fragments of oral history to invoke a complex time period that is painfully present and therefore rarely addressed in public life. This time, de Sousa Dias closes in on the history of a single Portuguese family and the memories of three siblings. The childhood of Isabel, Rui, and Álvaro Pato was marked by the longing for their absent parents and the ever present threat of the PIDE/DGS. In cliose dialogue with Susana De Sousa Dias' film Obscure Light, this short reflection highlights the possibilities of experiemental documentary to provide an allegory of memory and forgetting; an audiovisual historiography that works against the notion of an enclosed narrative to propose film as a vector for memorywork. Ideally, these are artistic projects that encourage public recognition of contested histories and shared experiences that call for alternative strategies of telling and of bridging between the present and the past. 

This text is a short summary of the theory, methods and results of the research project, aimed to support the AppKnapp research report film (www.appknapp.se) and suggest upcoming publications in different academic journals and further reading in research literature.
