As production and supply chains rely on exploitative extraction of nature and labour, consumption levels (resource use) remain one of the main indicators of inequality, across and within national contexts. In times of ongoing climate crisis and rising levels of inequalities, welfare systems face the dual challenge of transforming economies to reduce their reliance on unsustainable industries as we
Blogpost. A personal reflection of starting to supervise students in higher education.
The paper examines three late nineteenth–early twentieth century Pacific Northwest coast objects—a Nuu-chah-nulth kuxmin (bird rattle), a Haida sGaaga (medicine man) figure, and a Kwakwaka’wakw or Wuikinuxv wooden model of a totem pole—from the collections of the Ehlers museum in Haderslev, Denmark. Drawing on multiple sources and epistemologies and structuring the study as a weaving of different
This article considers the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (United Na-tions 2015) and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in relation to musiceducation and specifically small-group instrumental teaching. Sweden ranks highin democracy indices and was recently judged to be the fourth-most democratic country in the world according to Economist Intelligence (EIU 2022). Nonetheless, the
Preventing and mitigating damage to the surroundings arising from process safety incidents is an important aspect of process safety. Risk-informed or risk-based decision-making are cornerstones in most countries’ regulatory regimes for land-use planning. However, the design and implementation of the regulations vary significantly - from countries that have chosen a highly standardized set of rules
Denna bok syftar till att ge läsaren en bra grund för att sköta löpande bokföring och upprätta bokslut. I boken fokuseras såväl begreppsförståelse, bokföringslogik som konkret bokförings- och bokslutsarbete. Bokförings- och bokslutsarbete relateras till de finansiella rapporter som företag upprättar och som bygger på bokförda belopp. Sammanställning av resultaträkning och balansräkning och analys
Denna övningsbok följer upplägget i faktaboken Redovisning - från bokföring till analys. Övningsboken innehåller ett stort antal övningar med fullständiga lösningsförslag. Lösningarna kompletteras med utförliga kommentarer och förklaringar.Redovisning är en process som omfattar allt från företagets transaktioner och omständigheter, till den analys och användning av företagets redovisningsinformati
Regeringen ger nu stadigt statsbidrag till organisationer som till exempel delar ut matpaket. Men risken att Sverige glider in i en mer oklar socialpolitik för de mest ekonomiskt utsatta, skriver debattörer.The government now provides steady state grants to organizations that, for example, distribute food packages. But debaters warn that Sweden risks slipping into a more unclear social policy for the most economically vulnerable.
Klimatförändringarna förväntas påverka skogar i de tempererade och boreala zonerna och leda till omfattande förändringar i ekosystemens struktur och funktion. Därför behövs analyser av sannolika utfall av olika scenarier av ökad klimatpåverkan på lång sikt, för att förbättra kunskapsunderlaget och stödja beslutsfattande inom skogssektorn. För skogsägare innebär klimatförändringarna ett behov att öClimate change is expected to affect temperate and boreal forests, potentially causing profound changes to the functioning and the structure of ecosystems. This calls for assessments of the plausible long-term outcomes of a range of climate change scenarios to increase the knowledge base for decision making in forestry. Forest owners need to consider whether current silvicultural management practi
Resource competition between wild pollinators and managed honeybees (Apis mellifera) has the potential to detrimentally impact insect biodiversity as well as wild plant and crop pollination. As honeybees are central place foragers, their competitive impact on wild bees is expected to be structured by hive proximity, in conjunction with foraging decisions related to landscape-level resource availab
Intensification of forest management to increase production of biomass has resulted in considerable habitat degradation with negative impacts on insect biodiversity, including beneficial insect groups such as pollinators. Yet, little is known about how reliant forest understory plants, such as bilberry (Vaccinium myrtillus), are on insect pollinators for reproduction. Here, we quantified the struc
This chapter examines the development of maternal and infant mortality and its connection to changes in medical and healthcare treatment of mothers and infants in the city of Landskrona, Sweden, and its rural hinterland between 1905 and 2015. The authors show that maternal mortality, stillbirth rates, and infant mortality declined strongly in this period. In parallel, hospitals began to admit more
This paper delves into the challenges impeding the seamless integration of artificial intelligence (AI) within the food supply chain (FSC) and introduces a novel methodological framework that combines the NK Model with the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) technique. Through an exhaustive literature analysis and expert discussions, the research identifies and categorizes si
Background: The relationship between doing and belonging is rooted in individuals’ engagement in meaningful occupations, which contributes to their sense of connectedness. The meaningfulness of occupation relates closely to the context in which it is performed. However, despite its importance, context is often overlooked and underexplored. Aim: To explore how older adults living in depopulated rur
Accessible housing for the aging population is important, but large-scale reliable information on accessibility problems in ordinary housing is lacking. This study aimed to describe the prevalence of environmental barriers and analyze potential accessibility problems in the Swedish housing stock and to evaluate the validity and representativeness of housing data collected in a citizen science proj
Background and aims: Active aging is the process through which people strive to maintain wellbeing when growing old. Addressing the lack of research on active aging in the context of housing, the aim was to describe active aging among people aged 55 and older considering relocation and investigate whether perceived housing moderates the relationship between functional limitations and active aging.
The circular economy (CE) is argued as a possible model for dealing with value chain instabilities in global production networks. Since geographical proximity is central to unlocking circular potential, x-shoring (including concepts like reshoring, resourcing, or friendshoring) is arguably key to this process. Often, spatial restructurings of the CE are embraced without a critical examination of t
Remote sensing (RS) data provide large-scale observations to measure water quality parameters (WQPs) like turbidity (Turb), which indicates the haziness of the water. Accurately estimating these parameters solely from RS data is inherently complex due to various factors, necessitating the use of advanced models capable of capturing the intricate relationships between RS spectral bands as an input
