China has been a pioneer in including information and communication technologies for educational purposes (ICT4E) in national educational policies. Having recognized the role technology can play in education in the late 1990s, the country has by now emerged as an international leader in propagating the benefits of ICT4E. At the levels of the school and individual learner, however, ICT4E still play
Ett ekologisk, ekonomiskt och socialt hållbart nyttjande av jordens resurser är en viktig förutsättning för en hållbar samhällsutveckling och inte minst för vår förmåga att tackla och anpassa oss till aktuella och framtida utmaningar, såsom klimatförändringar eller pandemier. En av de stora frågorna kopplat till detta är markanvändningen: Hur vi ska använda våra begränsade markresurser, så att vi
För snart ett decennium sedan startade en intensiv debatt om flygets klimatpåverkani svenska medier. I dess kölvatten har en social rörelse för minskat flygresande tagitform – flygfrittrörelsen. Den består av individer och organisationer som tillsammansengagerar sig för minskat flygresande, dels genom att delta i kampanjer och annatpåverkansarbete, och dels genom att själva avstå flygresande.Min aThe need for demand-side climate solutions is increasingly recognized in science and society. Such solutions imply that demand for goods and services is targeted either via changes in the use of infrastructure and technology or via cultural changes in consumption and lifestyle among the global affluent. In this thesis, I explore how to enable cultural change around affluent overconsumption through
Klimatet förändras på ett sätt som gör förlusterna mer påtagliga. Människor och platser i det globala syd vars ekonomier och försörjning på landsbygden är centrerade kring mark och naturresurser anses vara särskilt sårbara för klimatförändringar och förväntas uppleva oproportionerligt stora klimatrelaterade förluster. Bevisen för sådana oproportionerliga bördor och de orättvisor de leder till växeThe climate is changing in ways that make loss more present. People and places in the Global South whose economies and rural livelihoods are centred on land and natural resources are considered particularly vulnerable to climate change and are expected to disproportionately experience climate-related loss. Evidence of such disproportionate burdens and the injustices they engender is growing and ga
Gas cooling is a technique used within the fire service to reduce the risks of the hot gaseous layer and create a better visibility. It is achieved by applying water into the gaseous layer. Successfully performing or implementing this technique is something that has not yet been accomplished in every brigade. This work has been focused on different parameters that affect gas cooling and is studie
I svenska domstolar utvecklades under en period av över 30 år en påföljds-praxis i narkotikamål som i hög grad avvek från vad som gäller för andra brottstyper. Straffvärdebedömningen inom området styrdes i princip helt och hållet av tabeller grundade på arten och mängden narkotika. En omfattande praxisomläggning ägde rum åren 2011 till 2013. Omläggningen medförde att samtliga relevanta omständigheIn Swedish courts, over a period of more than 30 years, a practice of punishment was developed in drug cases, which largely differed from those of other types of crime. The penal value assessment in the area was basically governed entirely by tables based on the art and amount of drugs. A comprehensive practice review took place between 2011 and 2013. The conclusion was that all relevant circumsta
I mars 2019 röstade EU-parlamentet igenom Direktivet om upphovsrätt på den digitala inre marknaden (”DSM-direktivet”) som medför förändringar i ansvarsstrukturen för upphovsrättsliga intrång på nätet. Direktivets kanske mest kontroversiella artikel är art 17 som behandlar ansvar för särskilda internetplattformar, så kallade ”onlineleverantörer av delningstjänster för innehåll” (”onlineleverantörerIn March 2019, the European Parliament adopted the Directive on Copyright in the Digital Single Market ("the DSM Directive") which implies changes in the liability regime of online copyright infringements. Perhaps the most controversial article in the directive is Art 17, which regulates liability on specific internet platforms, so-called "online content-sharing service providers” (
This is a qualitative study with the objective to find an understanding for how social workers who work with people affected by honor-related violence, receive and investigate the phenomenon and to illuminate their knowledge on the subject. We collected women´s stories from a source that contains authentic anonymous narratives and prepared one “story” as a vignette. It was presented accompanied wi

Syftet med denna studie är att generera en kunskap kring hur fysiska butiker idag parerar den alltmer digitaliserade konsumenten samt hur de arbetar för att bibehålla sin position på marknaden. Studien har skett på butiksnivå och forskningsansatsen är kvalitativ där insamlingen av empiri skett i form av nio stycken djupintervjuer med både butikschefer och regionchefer från modeföretag som verkar p
Idag tillhör persondatorerna våra käraste prylar, men så har det inte alltid varit. Kring 1980, då persondatorerna slog igenom i Sverige, sågs "datafrågorna" istället tillhöra samhällets stora utmaningar, tillsammans med bland annat energiförsörjningen och miljöfrågorna. Dessa datafrågor debatterades häftigt, och i fackpressen kritiserades särskilt Sveriges Television för att ge en allde

Knowledge sharing is a key element in professional service firms (PSFs), as it is the knowledge that ultimately constitutes the core of their business. However, knowledge sharing is mainly voluntary and cannot be detached from the professionals engaging in it. Thus, it appears pertinent to appreciate professionals’ perspective and perception of knowledge sharing, as well as to understand their wil
Aim and Purpose: The aim with this thesis was to provide answers to the two research questions: “Which of the four consumption models (“Circular economy”, “Shared economy”, “Environmentally friendly”, and “Conventional”) do Swedish consumers prefer, in relation to different product markets and product categories?” and“Are there any distinctive demographic segments among consumers preferring a spec
Networks have been recognized as an alternative internationalization approach for Professional Service Firms (PSFs). However, the exploration of tensions, which result from attempts to unite network members and at the same time support their diversity, has been rather neglected in the past. Furthermore, the role of local embeddedness in the presented setting seems to have been overlooked. We have

Few business models are as hyped right now as the Software as a Service (SaaS) model. But how sustainable is it? In the last decade, SaaS has reshaped the software industry and has become a leading delivery model of B2B enterprise software. During this period, the disruptors that pioneered the model and the incumbents that transitioned to it have created tremendous shareholder value. However, the
Instrumental paradox in church practice - the logic and dramaturgy of the support Despite recent changes in the Swedish welfare system with devaluation of income from Social Services and an invitation from government to civil society to carry out welfare tasks little research has been conducted on service users’ experience of support from civil society.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Under den senaste tiden har problematiken med klimatförändringarna debatterats livligt. För att kunna förutspå den framtida omfattningen av klimatförändringarna och vilka konsekvenser dessa kommer att ha är det ytterst relevant att känna till utbytet av växthusgaser mellan atmosfär och jordens alla ekosystem. Arktiska ekosystem är ytterst känsliga för den globala uppvärArctic ecosystems play a key role in the terrestrial carbon (C) cycle, but spa-tially explicit data on the C exchange is scarce in these remote areas. The global warming is especially dominant in the Arctic, and these areas are vul-nerable to climate change. It is therefore important to quantify and understand the processes affecting the C dynamics in these regions. In this thesis, the land-atmosp
