Background: Child mortality differed greatly within rural regions in Europe before and during the mortality transition. Little is known about the role of nutrition in such geographic differences, and about the factors affecting the nutritional status and hence the disease outcomes.Objective: Focusing on nutrition, we analyse the effects of soil type, used as an indicator of the farm-level agricultBackground: Child mortality differed greatly within rural regions in Europe before and during the mortality transition.

This paper critically examines sexual risk reduction interventions, more specifically how they are evaluated and the implications that this has for sexual health policy. The focus is on motivational interviewing (MI) interventions which aim to promote protective behaviors related to sexual risk on the part of young people. MI has become increasingly popular, largely due to it being a highly flexib

We examine the causes and policy implications of strategic (willful) ignorance of risk as an excuse to overengage in risky health behavior. In an experiment on Copenhagen adults, we allow subjects to choose whether to learn the calorie content of a meal before consuming it, and measure their subsequent calorie intake. Consistent with previous studies, we find strong evidence of strategic ignoranceWe examine the causes and policy implications of strategic (willful) ignorance of risk as an excuse to over-engage in risky health behavior. In an experiment on Copenhagen adults, we allow subjects to choose whether to learn the calorie content of a meal before consuming it and then measure their subsequent calorie intake. Consistent with previous studies, we find strong evidence of strategic igno

In the twelfth century the Norbertine order was introduced in parts of Scandinavia. One initiator in the north was Eskil, the powerful archbishop of Lund. However, in the beginning of the thirteenth century the mendicant orders were introduced by successors to the archbishopric. This led to a general decline of other orders. In spite of that the Norbertines managed to prosper in Bäckaskog, an abbeIn the twelfth century the Norbertine order was introduced in parts of Scandinavia.

The clichéd conceptualization of cancer illness as a battle, which the patient can either win or lose, can be problematic. For patients referred to palliative care, it can cause feelings of guilt and failure. This framing of cancer, here referred to as ‘the battle script’, has been questioned in previous research, and there seems to be awareness among health practitioners that battle metaphors shoThe clichéd conceptualization of cancer illness as a battle, which the patient can either win or lose, can be problematic.

Following the record company Blue Note’s publicity campaign for jazz pianist Thelonious Monk in 1948, the image of Monk commonly presented in Swedish as well as American media was one of an eccentric, mysterious, even weird musician, sometimes viewed as a genius. This article presents and discusses the development of the Swedish media image of Monk during the period 1948–63, from the first mention

Previous research has focused on how governments and public authorities can limit civil society organisations’ (CSOs) autonomy by shrinking their operational civic space and their democratic functions. There has been less attention paid to how other external actors and types of pressure might restrict access to civic space and how it can induce coping responses on both an individual and organizati

This study examined journalists' perceptions regarding the legal system's ability to protect them against online harassment. By utilizing open-ended survey responses from respondents with varying levels of trust in the legal system, the findings suggested a need for increased technical proficiency, resources, and priority within the legal system to adequately address the issue. Additionally, a rec

The Syrian civil war has been described as a first example of the conflicts expected in the wake of climate change. The conflict, which started in 2011, was preceded by a severe drought in 2007–2009 that hit agriculture and the rural population hard. But what do we really know about what happened to Syria’s climate and agriculture before and after the start of the conflict? In this article, I summ

This paper examines the Swedish right-wing party Christian Democrats' (Kristdemokraterna) view on privacy, as expressed in the well known and vibrant FRA-debate. FRA stands for The National Defence Radio Establishment and the debate flourished in 2008-2009, when a new law on the introduction of signals intelligence (SIGINT) was presented by the government in the Swedish parliament. This forced

This research explores how community-based entrepreneurs can contribute to the reorganization of natural resource management and find solutions to environmental problems within the current capitalist economy. Recent scholars on post-capitalism, believe that the economy can be organized by different institutions than the market and investigate the role of individuals as catalyst of environmenta

The purpose of my study was to illustrate the concept of dandelion children by using an adult's description of her childhood. I wanted my study to focus on detailed descriptions of situations, events and feelings; therefore I used a qualitative approach and based my study on the autobiographies of three dandelion children. The questions on which I based my study are: - Are there common themes

It briefly covers the integration process from independence in the 1990s to the present. The findings of the study shows that

This thesis examines legal tensions arising from the interaction between OECD/G20 IF Administrative Guidance and the Pillar Two Directive within the EU legal order. While the Pillar Two Directive remains locked into version of OECD/G20 IF Pillar Two rules as they stood in 2022, the OECD/G20 IF continues to develop its Pillar Two framework through subsequent Administrative Guidance. The thesis exam

Corporate misconduct is a persistent feature of contemporary organizational life, yet corporations rarely acknowledge wrongdoing when confronted with allegations of harm. Instead, they rely on discursive strategies that protect legitimacy, organizational identity, and moral credibility. This chapter examines how corporations employ techniques of neutralization to defend themselves against accusati
