This is a study of farm dynamics in eight African countries, drawing on a sample of more than 3000 farm households. It deals mainly with food crops and in detail with maize and makes a longitudinal analysis by systematically comparing current conditions with those obtaining when the farm was set up under its present management. From the study emerges an overall picture of inadequately exploited pr

This chapter explores the fertility behavior, specifically the transition to parenthood, of the second generation, i.e. the children of immigrants, in Sweden from an integration perspective. We examine the impact of education, income, labor market attachment, nationality and immigrant experience on first births of second generation women and contrast it with that of the native Swedish-born populat

Public policy conflicts emerge when feelings of scarcity and different interests dominate interactive process among the government and the public. The stakeholders struggle in a lower violence capacity but broad range of conflicting issues. Thus, some parties may use cooperative or/and competitive conflict management approaches to achieve their goals. This thesis argues that different political st
Sustainable development rests on, among other things, the ability of policy to stimulate corporate actors to improve their environmental performance. Yet policy design and implementation is a challenging task in this area. This paper investigates this issue by examining the ability of the UK Emissions Trading Scheme to foster corporate sustainability from two perspectives: (a) its institutional fr

Azimuthal asymmetries of the hadronic final state in deep inelastic scattering at HERA provide the opportunity to study the helicity of the interacting particles. We present a theoretical overview of the origin of these effects up to leading order in the strong coupling constant, $alpha_s$. A review of previous measurements is given and the results are discussed. The effects of the intrinsic trans
Popular Abstract in Swedish Sedan årtionden tillbaks finns en stor mängd klorerade organiska miljögifter spridda i vår miljö (t ex DDT, PCBer och dioxiner). Djur får i sig miljögifterna främst med födan och eftersom dessa ämnen som regel är svårnedbrytbara och inte kan omsättas i kroppen i någon större omfattning leder detta till att de istället lagras upp i djuren, framför allt i fettvävnaden. EtChlorinated fatty acids (ClFAs) are the major contributors of extractable, organically bound chlorine in fish lipids. A known anthropogenic source of ClFAs is chlorine bleached pulp production. Additional anthropogenic sources may exist, e.g., chlorine-containing discharge from industrial and house-hold waste and they may also occur naturally. ClFAs have a wide geographic distribution. They have,
