This paper presents analyses on the trends of IS curriculum development that has evolved since its inception from the classical report by the AIS/ACM task force led by Heikki Topi and colleagues published in 2010. Based on an integrated synthesis of the literature, we categorize it into three theoretically-driven dimensions: (i) IS Curricula; (ii) Topic-Based IS Curricula, and (iii) IS Identity Cr
The trend in the district heating industry is toward increased privatization and openness to competition, which bring with them other phenomena associated with civil law, such as bankruptcies. Vingåker was one of six Swedish municipalities whose district heating companies went bankrupt in 2004. The bankruptcy caused major disruptions in Vingåker, not least as a result of the unregulated legal fram
Melanocortin therapy by using adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) or non-steroidogenic melanocortin peptides attenuates proteinuria and glomerular injury in experimental glomerular diseases and induces remission of nephrotic syndrome in patients with diverse glomerulopathies, even those resistant to steroids. The underlying mechanism remains elusive, but the role of melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) h
The energy justice framework serves as an important decision-making tool in order to understand how different principles of justice can inform energy systems and policies. The realization of the urgency of providing modern energy technology and services particularly to rural areas has prompted both the Nepalese government and development institutions to focus on community-run renewable energy faci
Internet services can aid steps towards sustainability, but can also be a means of exploitation and power-ownership. Data centres are an intrinsic part of this system, but reporting regulations do not require full disclosure on them. This paper takes the position that incomplete or misleading reporting is a form of delay discourse. Using the case study of Spotify, a structured literature review wa
December 2nd 2016 it was established that Oatly had a new co-owner, China Resources, a partnership that went against not only their own core values but also the values of their oat followers. However, it was not until 2019 the media storm drew in. Oatly owned the spotlight and the debates continued whether Oatly could be trusted or if boycott was the best decision. Oatly however, answered the crit
Increasingly, greening in cities across the Global North is enmeshed in strategies for attracting capital investment, raising the question: for whom is the future green city? Through exploring the relationship between cities’ green boosterist rhetoric, affordability and social equity considerations within greening programmes, this paper examines the extent to which, and why, the degree of green br
Varmhyran dominerar i Sverige – men varför? I nästan alla svenska lägenheter ingår uppvärmningskostnaden som en fast del av hyran enligt en modell som ofta kallas för varmhyra. Det sägs ofta att vi i Sverige har en lång tradition av varmhyra – vilket stämmer – och att det är ett system som fungerar väl. Men i ett internationellt perspektiv är varmhyra ovanligt. Inom EU är det främst Sverige och Fi
Research on violence on digital platforms have focused on how perpetrators exploit ano-nymity, Geo-tracking, blackmail and other tools to abuse a victim online and very little re-search has been done in regards on how society and organisations protect the victims. This thesis explores what organisations that work with domestic violence victims experience when it comes to digital technology. Four u
In the coming years, it is anticipated that if we continue with the same pace of energy consumption, communities will continue to face three major challenges; a mounting increase in energy demands, pollution, and global warming. On a local scale, Egypt is experiencing one of its most serious energy crises in decades. The energy consumed in indoor cooling and heating is the biggest portion of total
Hjärtinflammationsgruppen vid Lunds universitet undersöker immunologiska och inflammatoriska mekanismer som är involverade i hjärtsjukdomar. I djurmodeller utvecklar vi nya terapier riktade mot dessa mekanismer, som syftar till att minska hjärtskadan och förbättra hjärtfunktionen vid hjärtinfarkt, myokardit och septisk kardiomyopati. Vi bedriver också kliniska studier i stora patientkohorter för aThe Cardiac Inflammation Research Group at Lund University investigates immune and inflammatory mechanisms involved in cardiac disease. In animal models, we are developing novel therapies that target these mechanisms, aiming to reduce myocardial damage and improve cardiac function in myocardial infarction, myocarditis and septic cardiomyopathy. We are also performing clinical studies in large pati
This paper argues that there is reason to be skeptical about the idea that the transition to a service economy will bring about dematerialization of production and consequent environmental improvement. This is because the shift to a service economy is an illusion in terms of real production, but is instead generated by the fall in the price of manufacturing goods relative to services, which is in
