Does context matter? Study of knowledge sharing in European Institute of Innovation and Technology

Some previous attempts to draw research on social constructs as if they are operating in a vacuum were missing some valuable information and could not provide deep insights into the matter. As this, contextual sensitivity, approach is not yet popular in network research, we adopt this stance to provide valuable insights into knowledge sharing in complex interorganizational networks. The empirical

En komparativ jämförelse mellan svensk och engelsk rätt - föräldrasamverkans utformning

Sammanfattning I Sverige råder ett strikt krav på konsensus när det gäller beslutanderätten vid gemensam vårdnad av barn. Detta innebär att vårdnadshavarna tvingas komma överens om princip alla frågor med undantag för den dagliga omsorgen vad gäller barnet. När vårdnadshavarna inte längre bor tillsammans efter exempel- vis en äktenskapsskillnad, finns samma samstämmighet dem emellan kanske inte lSummary In Swedish law, joint legal custody generally entails a strict requirement of con- sensus in decisions concerning the child. The basic precondition is that both parents must agree on almost all matters. An exeption from this condition can however be made in matters concerning the daily care. The housing parent has in these matters autonomy to decide. After for example a divorce, it can of

The Crisis Paradox - Perceptions of organizational crises in between threats and opportunities

Ekonomisk makt, ritualer och åkrar - centrum och periferi på Gotland under bronsåldern

On the island of Gotland in the Baltic sea there have been many findings dated to the Bronze Age.

Multimodal learning strategies of pupils with various abilities

Books and learning materials are often multimodal to their character; with content depicted in text, images, tables, diagrams and so on. This multimodality has shown to motivate students, improve retention and knowledge creation.

Corporate share repurchases in Sweden. Managerial motivation and timing

Current study focuses on examining the determinants of share repurchases in Swedish firms listed on NASDAQ OMX Nordic during the period 2000-2011.

However, as expected, the majority of these hypotheses do not hold in case of Sweden which

Market Oriented Reform of Urban Sewage Treatment Industry in China

Diskursernas kamp: En kvalitativ analys av olika förhållningssätt till etisk konsumtion
