Manufacturing companies can contribute to a resource-efficient society by designing product-service systems (PSS). Despite the increased importance of PSS for the manufacturing industry in their efforts to become sustainable, few studies focus on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The study presented in this article aims to add knowledge on how the characteristics of SMEs influence the cha

Work and fun have traditionally been seen as opposites. There is however increasing interest among academics and businesses in the potential benefits of uniting the two. Yet, not a great deal has been studied on how managers are to impact such a process. The literature often sees the role of managers limited to that of “party planners” where they conduct a series of fun activities, with varying an

Providing protection and assistance to refugees is a permanent challenge for the international community. In 2014 EU created a New Agenda on Migration as a immediate response to the increasing inflow of third country nationals who risked their lives when crossing the Mediterranean Sea. The first part of the agenda stipulates that Europe should continue to be a safe haven for those fleeing persecut

This master's thesis presents a qualitative analysis of nine interviews with public library users who identify as dyke, lesbian, or queer. The study focuses on the participants' lived experiences of public libraries and aim to investigate the library's role in the exploration and practice of a queer or lesbian sexual identity. In what ways does the library contribute to and/or obstruct

Responsibility to Protect is a principle that has developed from a report written by ICISS in 2001. The report was inspired by a statement of Kofi Annan where he questioned how the international community would stop another incident like Rwanda or Srebrenica. Since then many situations have occurred that has challenged the concept of R2P. The debate about humanitarian interventions based on intern

A continuous growth of the world population raises the importance of preserving food resources while maintaining their nutrient value. Leafy vegetables such as spinach are a food category which decay quickly, and a large amount ends up as food waste. Therefore, shelf life extension while keeping a good product quality is of great interest in food processing. In this study, the effect of combining

Nature has a special knack for survival. After millennia of beating the odds against an inhospitable planet, many species have found clever ways to ensure self-preservation on an often inhospitable planet. By refining special skills and working alongside other members of the ecosystem, countless species have found a stable role in the landscape. As humans, we are no different. Developing human soc

This thesis provides insight into the development of Virtual Reality(VR) applications with the purpose of introducing users to a new gesture interaction platform. Gesturebased interaction and VR are two rapidly evolving technologies with a great potential to complement each other. The gestures used are based on a cognitive model of holding a sphere in your hands and tapping on its surface. By usin

Our Solar System is not the only planetary system in the universe. Since the first detected planet orbiting a star other than the Sun, over 4000 exoplanets have been detected. These exoplanets live in systems with an incredible diversity. The systems can include single, giant planets orbiting very close to the star, or they can have multiple planets packed tightly together. What is causing these dThe detections of over 4000 exoplanets as of today has shown that they exist in a wide range of different configurations, otherwise known as architectures. Recently, studies have been made trying to link the environment of host stars to the architectures of their planetary systems and have found that the architectures of planetary systems may not necessarily be uniform in the Milky Way. Since effe

Bakgrund: Evidensbaserad vård har visat sig ha positiva effekter för både patienter och organisationen, och är ett väl genomforskat ämne i bland annat sjukhuskontext. Det finns barriärer relaterat till dess implementation som utgörs av exempelvis brist på tid, resurser och kunskap. Evidensbaserad vård inom ambulanssjukvård är dock inte lika väl undersökt, vilket understryker ett behov av en utforsBackground: Evidence-based practice is proven to have positive effects for both patients and organizations, and is a well-researched subject in intrahospital and primary care settings. There are however barriers pertaining to its implementation in the form of, for example, lack of time, resources, and knowledge. Evidence-based practice in the ambulance service context is, however, not nearly as we

The aim of this study was to examine how care managers experience the challenges that they encounter in their meetings with elderly who suffers from mental illness.

To analyze our result we have used Michael Lipsky’s theory about street level bureaucracy. The care managers in our study t

The overall aim of this thesis was to explore loneliness by identifying associated factors and predictors for loneliness among older people. This research was also undertaken to examine the association between loneliness and healthcare consumption.

This paper explores strategic change communication, framed by the idea that managers can be viewed as rhetoricians. The purpose of this paper is to present and discuss senior managers’ subjective experiences of rhetorical aspects of change management. The paper draws on a case study from ABB Sweden (a power and automation technology company). In-depth interviews with senior managers, with vast ex

Today’s global competition forces manufacturing companies to re-evaluate their existing processes, technologies, manufactured parts and services in order to focus on strategic activities. The question whether to make or to buy goods or services represents a problem faced by many companies when deciding between keeping technologies/processes in-house or purchasing them from an outside supplier. In

The aim of this essay is to explore the motif in the Epistle to the Hebrews of the believers’ entry into the Heavenly Sanctuary. The author portrays how Christ, on behalf of the believers, has entered into heaven with his own blood as a high priest and as a forerunner. But the author also exhorts his readers that they ought to enter the Sanctuary (Heb 4:14–16, 10:19–22). It is this theme I explore
