Den historiska romanen som vapen. Studier i Viktor Rydbergs ungdomsjournalistik och romanen Fribytaren på Östersjön
Den bild vi har av Viktor Rydberg brukar präglas av antingen idealiserande antikdyrkan, förbjuden "gossekärlek" eller av Göteborgsliberalismen. Det tidigare författarskapet har ofta uppfattats som omoget och melodramatiskt. I sin studie av Rydbergs tidiga artiklar, bl.a. i den politisk-satiriska tidskriften Tomtebissen, samt romanen Fribytaren på Östersjön ger Birthe Sjöberg nya aspekter på den un

Organizational coordination and costly communication with boundedly rational agents
How does costly communication affect organizational coordination? This paper develops a model of costly communication based on the weakest-link game and boundedly rational agents. Solving for the stochastically stable states, we find that communication increases the possibilities for efficient coordination compared to a setting where agents cannot communicate. But as agents face a trade-off betwee
Domsrätt och lagval vid elektronisk handel
Popular Abstract in Swedish Vilket lands domstolar är behöriga att lösa tvister som kan uppkomma till följd av elektroniska avtal där parterna hör hemma i olika länder? Vilket lands lag skall domstolen använda? Även om en svensk domstol är behörig är det inte säkert att den skall använda svensk lag. Dessa frågor sorterar inom ett ämnesområde som heter interationell privat- och processrätt. I avhanThis study addresses some of the private international law perspectives on electronic commerce, namely the matters of jurisdiction and choice of law.

A distinctive trait of electronic business is that its activities are not bound by geographic borders in a traditional s
