Page 3 - Mapping the Holodomor Complex

Acknowledgments

I want to thank everyone at the Media and documentation department and fellow students who

have provided critical comments and ideas for further development of my thesis. Thanks to my

supervisor Henrik Gustafsson who pointed me towards new insights. I must not forget to thank
the three doctoral students, Christian, Emil and Juliane, who were in charge of the

Manufacturing Monsters course, for monstrous inspiration. And a special thanks to my
colleague Kira Moss, at the University Library of Tromsø, who took time to read through my

thesis and provided helpful comments in the last moments. A big thank you to my parents and
my wife who have given me the gift of time so that I could get all these words down onto the

paper. And thanks to my children, who at times drive me insane, but at the same time gives me

the spirit and inspiration to push on. The road has been long and full of obstacles and doubt, but
also full of new knowledge and insights. Without hard work and perseverance, and friends and

family, we can never reach our goals. With that said, I feel I still haven’t reached mine, but I
think I can spot it somewhere among all these papers and documents…
