Skiftesstrukturen i Dalarna : Från storskifte till om arrondering

Sammanfattning: The change of the Real property index map has met a lot of resistance in Dalarna.This is the reason that the parcel’s reform has not had the same impact in Dalarnaas in the rest of Sweden. In addition, even “Laga skifte” (the reformation on propertystructure) was never effected in most areas of Dalarna. This has lead to thatDalarna has a unique property structure with many small and narrow parcels.Some argue, however, that the property structure has been the same for many centuries.The purpose of this thesis is therefore to study how the property structurelooked before “storskifte” (the reformation on property structure) was done, howit was when äganderättsutredningen (the adjudication), in the 1970s, was accomplished,and finally how the structure looks when land consolidation has been implemented.For the template of the studies, seven different villages were chosen.The basis for the study was comprised of acts for each stage and each village.The study showed that change in property structure has occurred. When “storskiftet”was effected a very intensive and illegal dividing of the property landstarted (called sämjedelning). This led to the result that at the time for ”äganderättsutredning”the parcels had become much finer and significantly smaller. Whenland consolidation was accomplished, the parcels once again become fewer andlarger.
