This study explores the impact an exogenous improvement in childhood health has on later-life outcomes. Using extensive and detailed register data from the Swedish Interdisciplinary Panel covering up to 2011, we follow individuals exposed to the introduction of the first vaccine against polio in Sweden (birth cohorts 1937–1966) until adulthood in order to quantify the causal effect of polio vaccin

In this paper I discuss how blockchains potentially could affect the way creditrisk is modeled, and how the improved trust and timing associated with blockchain-enabled real-time accounting could improve default prediction. To demonstrate the (quite substantial) effect the change would have on well-known credit risk measures, a simple case-study compares Z-scores and Merton distances to default coIn this paper I discuss how blockchains potentially could affect the way credit risk is modeled, and how the improved trust and timing associated with blockchain-enabled real-time accounting could improve default prediction.

Humans perceive colours in categories such as red, even though we can discernred hues including ruby and crimson. It emerges that birds also categorizecolours and this affects their colour-discrimination ability.

Bidraget behandlar hur etnografi kan bedrivas i en mer kreativ riktning och vikten av att bryta mot inarbetade procedurer och normer inom forskning.

Artikeln syftar till att problematisera kategoriseringar och deras användning. Artikeln pläderar för en mer elastisk och mångfacetterad syn på kategorier och de människor vi placerar in i dem.

Artikeln behandlar ett Sidasamarbete mellan Malmö Museer och District Six Museum i Kapstaden.

Artikeln är en del av ett temanummer kring 1900-talet "grundämnen".

Artikeln behandlar platstagande i två olika städer och hur människor skapar kryphål i urbana miljöer för att skapa sig platser.

The implementation of an appropriate pricing policy in an urbanarea could alleviate both environmental and congestion problemsby encouraging a shift towards more sustainable modes oftransportation. However, any positive net social welfare balancedelivered by the policy can hide unacceptable regressive effects.Therefore, it is crucial to investigate any change in relative levelsof accessibility amo
