University teachers’ engagement in teaching is a crucial aspect for the quality of student learning. In this article, we explore where such engagement comes from. We use a sociocultural perspective to investigate how teachers’ colleagues and leaders, in what we call academic microcultures, influence such engagement. A microculture can be a working group such as a teaching team, an educational prog
This chapter describes the background for, and implementation of, the Barnahus model within the Nordic countries. It highlights the core elements of the model and the specifics of the Nordic welfare state context relating to the child welfare and criminal justice systems. A contextual and comparative perspective is used to shed light on how the model is shaped by the legal and institutional contex
Across today’s developed world, there is a clear mortality gradient by socioeconomic status for all ages. It is often taken for granted that this gradient was as strong—or even stronger—in the past when social transfers were rudimentary and health care systems were less developed. Some studies based on cross-sectional data have supported this view, but others based on longitudinal data found that
With this work we have investigated how the air in the air cylinders of portable breathing apparatuses is heated during work in hot environments equal to those of interior fire extinguishing. The laws, regulations and standards concerning breathing apparatuses have been reviewed. We describe the theoretical relationships between heating and cooling as a result of air outtake and compare these to e
Idag talas det allt mer om de klimatutmaningarna vi står inför. Utmaningarna innebär ytterligare insatser för att det ska vara möjligt att uppnå den utsläppsminskning som krävs. Det nationella miljökvalitetsmålet Begränsad klimatpåverkan ska verka vägledande i Sveriges miljöarbete för alla samhällsnivåer, inklusive Sveriges kommuner. Därför har kommunerna en central roll och ett ansvar att bryta nThe challenge of climate change is highly contemporary topic. Further efforts are required to enable the adequate reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The national environment quality objective Begränsad klimatpåverkan (limited climate influence) is aimed to act as guidance for Sweden’s environmental efforts on all levels, including local governments. Local governments have a central role and re
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to explain the investment decision process in a newly established market that is characterized by uncertainty. Methodology: The research has a qualitative character and is based on a case study based on the biogas industry in Sweden. Theoretical perspectives: The theoretical framework of the study is based on the three phases of an investment process: The

Visions, or revelations, played an enormously important role in late medieval society. So much so that the question what constituted an authentic vision was debated at the highest ecclesiastical levels. Furthermore, the majority of visionaries in this period were women, and visions afforded them with unique opportunities to exercise their abilities in contexts otherwise almost exclusively reservedVisions, or revelations, played an enormously important role in late medieval society.

Exploring new ways of studying communication and interactions in media and journalism is of high interest considering that we live in a constantly transforming media landscape. To build sustainable journalism and media organizations requires a holistic approach of the development involving audience, news producers and other stakeholders.This panel originates from studies applying action research o
The aim of this paper is to provide insights into, and perspectives on, the transformation of mindsets for logisticians. We argue that by exploring paradoxes inherent in the efficiency-focused paradigm of today, a strategic mindset can emerge in which central logistics management issues can be addressed, understood, and dealt with in order to enhance supply chain effectiveness and innovation. Base
The 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide a framework for “peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future” (UN, 2015). Fast-moving societal questions as the ones related to the SDGs are often addressed from within traditional disciplinary research paradigms, which might not be best equipped for tackling the emerging challenges.

This thesis investigates the applicability and legitimacy of the relative valuation method within the Software-as-a-Service industry by comparing the implied enterprise values of SaaS companies in transactions to values estimated using peer group valuation multiples. To achieve this, a sample of 66 Nordic M&A and private placement transactions completed between 2020 and 2024 were selected for
The title of my master’s thesis is “to sail through the room”, and it deals with museum ships as a space rather than as an object. Meaning that museum ships are seen as spaces in which events and experiences can occur, opposed to things that events and experience happen to or around. Little museological research on museum ships has been done, and no research at all has been done concerning the spe
Uppsatsen ämnar bidra till förståelse i en pågående politisk och aktuell debatt, gällande rättsliga vägar att hantera svenska medborgare som är återvändare från Islamiska staten. Enligt en innehållsanalytisk metod genomförs en granskning av protokollet från den aktuella riksdagsdebatten om IS-återvändare 12 mars 2019. Utifrån ett teoretiskt perspektiv om mänskliga rättigheter och rättssäkerhet för
