Exploring the Realization of Moments of Leadership : A Methodological Approach

Post-heroic perspectives on leadership, which approach leadership as process, practice and a relational phenomenon, have shifted the theoretical understanding from individual characteristics to significant so-called moments of leadership, where direction emerges, and actions are re-oriented and organized. However, despite considerable theoretical development, research struggles to explore these pr

Through the kaleidoscope of sustainability : 25 essays

This book was conceived in the context of a workshop at the Lund University Malmö Theatre Academy, where we used our bodies to create patterns based on prompts such as if the work we do imagines sustainability more in terms of harmony or more in terms of conflict, or how we orient ourselves on a continuum of past, [present] and future. Important to note is that the patterns were ever-changing, not

Silent pods over virtual events : The untapped potential of virtual communities in co-working spaces

Purpose: The virtualization of work has been high on the agenda during the new millennium, increasingly so after the pandemic. In this transition, co-working spaces (CWS) are often proposed to be the future-proof solution. The purpose of this paper is to explore how hybrid and virtual solutions are portrayed in co-working literature and whether they are shaping CWS in practice. Design/methodology/

Comparison of reactor configurations for biogas production from energy crops

Biogas production from a mix of easily fermentable and fibrous energy crops was evaluated and compared for two different process types. The processes were a batch two-stage leach bed combined with an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) process and a semi-continuous one-stage continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) process The specific methane yields after a processing time of 29-30 days were 2

Sweden looks at bioenergy from agriculture : Review of a new government report on the future for bioenergy

A report of the Sweden new government on the future for bioenergy is presented. The report state that the agriculture sector supplies 1.5 TWh of biomass energy to the Swedish energy system in the form of wheat, rapeseed, and some willows. A report discloses the fact that agriculture can play an important role in the development of Swedish energy system in the future. The most profitable crops for

Realizing influence in leadership : Negotiating agency through push and pull moves

While leadership is generally understood as an agentic process, there are divergent positions in the literature regarding the extent to which agency is to be understood as centralized in individuals and individual actions or distributed among actors and located in the collaborative process itself. In this study, we align with post-heroic studies of the realization of moments of leadership through

Utvecklingsprojekt angående språkutbildningar i främmande språk : Rapport utifrån uppdrag

Akademiska utbildningar i främmande språk är på många sätt ovanliga utbildningar i högre utbildning. Utbildningarna har krav på sig att vara vetenskapligt breda samtidigt som det finns stora behov av och förväntningar på grundläggande språkfärdighetsträning. Främmande språk studeras med flera olika syften, både för bredd och djup, och av studenter i olika skeden av livet och med heterogen bakgrund

Core and periphery in the EU legal space

This chapter aims to establish a conceptual framework for analyzing the EU legal space and its core-periphery dynamics, notably the extension of EU legal frameworks and policies beyond the territorial borders of the Union. It investigates how the EU legal space is defined, how its cores and peripheries are structured, and how they interact, evolve, and influence each other. The chapter argues that

The European Union and Planetary Health Politics

In 2015 the Rockefeller Foundation-Lancet Commission defined the concept of planetary health as built on an ecological model that integrates the material, biological, social, and cultural aspects of public health and accepts the complexity and non-linearity of the dynamics of natural systems. The zoonotic COVID-19 pandemic hastened this awaking to the symbiotic nature of planetary health politics

Saving the Soul through Dieting : Governing health at Die Franckeschen Anstalten 1698-1759

Denna avhandling undersöker hur Halle-pietismen blev en central plats för framväxten av pastoralt biomaktutövande, där själavård och hälsostyrning systematiskt vävdes samman. Med fokus på August Hermann Franckes och Christian Friedrich Richters rationliteter samt den institutionella ordningen i Die Franckeschen Anstalten (1698–1759) utmanar studien den dominerande berättelsen om att biomakt och fo

Text universe : A Pedagogical Strategy to Teach Literary Classics

Svensson and Lundström focus on teaching literary classics across analogue and digital media spaces by using a text universe, that is a source text and its various re-presentations, as a way to challenge educational discourses and create opportunities for students to expand socio-political boundaries. In the chapter, the Pride and Prejudice-universe is analysed in order to explore what the differe

Media reporting on Small Modular Reactors in Sweden - benefits, risks and actors involved

This study focuses on the introduction of new nuclear, particularly Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) in Sweden. The Swedish Government has decided on a revival for nuclear energy where SMRs are an important contribution to reach the goal of a total output of at least 2 500 MW by 2035. In this stage when much is unclear about the re-introduction and SMRs are under development media is an important age
