This paper argues that Sámi reindeer pastoralism in Sweden is highly stressed during the critical snow cover periods due to large-scale human interventions, especially forestry, and that these have over time significantly worsened the ecological conditions for natural grazing-based responses to changing snow conditions caused by climate change. Informed by a literature review, the paper conceptual

We use Google internet search volumes to measure households’ pessimism about overall market-wide credit health in the economy and show that this “household default sentiment” is positively correlated with the credit default swap (CDS) spread level in the market. However, while household default sentiment might drive the cost of credit to some degree, either directly or indirectly through its effec

The growing diversity of connected devices leads to complex network deployments, often made up of endpoints that implement in- compatible network application protocols. Communication between heterogeneous network protocols was traditionally enabled by hardware translators or gateways. However, such solutions are increasingly unfit to address the security, scalability, and latency requirements of m

När denna recension skrivs (juni 2021) har Sara Kristofferssons Hela havet stormar recenserats på snart sagt alla större dagstidningars kultursidor, varav (med några få undantag) samtliga ställt sig på Kristofferssons sida i kritiken av det som uppfattas som ett fall av så kallad cancelkultur på Konstfack (se exempelvis Irenius, 2022). Här ska jag fördjupa den debatt som förts i medierna genom att

BACKGROUND: Exercise and education is recommended as first-line treatment by evidence-based, international guidelines for low back pain (LBP). Despite consensus regarding the treatment, there is a gap between guidelines and what is offered to patients. Digital LBP treatments are an emerging way of delivering first-line treatment.OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to evaluate outcomes after partic

I läroplanen från 2011 introducerades mänskliga rättigheter som undervisningsinnehåll i den svenska gymnasieskolan. De övergripande målen och riktlinjerna i gymnasieskolans läroplan slår fast att elever ska utveckla ”kunskaper om de mänskliga rättigheterna”. Men vad talar man egentligen om när man talar om mänskliga rättigheter i den svenska gymnasieskolan? Genom att undersöka vad jag benämner detIn 2011, human rights were introduced in the Swedish national curriculum and in subject syllabi. But what do teachers and students talk about when they talk about human rights? By examining rights language in national curricula, textbooks and teachers’ and students’ speech, the study shows how human rights are created as content through a meaning-making cultural translation process - vernacularisa

The future is robotic. Already we are seeing how society is changing with self-driving cars and robots at hospitals and schools. The huge potential of autonomous systems (AS) is highly discussed. What is not highly discussed, and rarely even acknowledged, is the key role trust plays in realizing these benefits. No common way of defining, testing, or measuring it exists. I argue that this lack of r

BACKGROUND: While the importance of involving older people in research is increasingly acknowledged, quantitative studies exploring the perspectives of larger samples of older people who take an active role in research on ageing and health are scarce. The aim of this study was to investigate the awareness of and attitudes towards public involvement in research on ageing and health among older peop
