The aim of this paper is to analyze, with a broadly postcolonial sensibility, the discourses on culture found in some of the international management books that: 1) especially claim to emphasize the cultural factor, and 2) claim to be ‘international’, supposedly appropriate for reading in all parts of the globe. We intend to show that very similar discursive patterns characterize the conceptualiza

Popular Abstract in Swedish Samhällets stöd, service och vård till människor med psykiska funktionshinder har under de senaste decennierna genomgått stora förändringar. Det har skett en övergång från slutna till samhällsbaserade öppna vårdformer. De kraftiga nedskärningarna av den sjukhusbaserade psykiatriska vården har emellertid långt ifrån alltid ersatts med ett heltäckande och fungerande vård-All clients admitted to ten pilot case management services for individuals with severe mental illness during 1995 and up to 1996-09-30 were invited to participate in the present study. A total of 176 clients were included. The clients were in all services assessed at admission and at an 18 months follow-up with regard to needs of care, psychosocial functioning. Use of health care and social servic

This research investigated how the employees of a company experienced a VR-model of an office building that was to be their future work place and how that VR-experience com¬pared with the employees’ experience of the completed building. About two years after the VR-showings the building was completed and the staff had moved into the building. The results for the employees who saw the VR-presentati

We show that there is a polynomial space algorithm that counts the number of perfect matchings in an n-vertex graph in O*(2n/2) ⊂ O(1.415n) time. (O*(f(n)) suppresses functions polylogarithmic in f(n)). The previously fastest algorithms for the problem was the exponential space O*(((1 + √5)/2)n) ⊂ O(1.619n) time algorithm by Koivisto, and for polynomial space, the O(1.942n) time algorithm by Neder

This article briefly reviews the recent discussion on how to use different versions of the concentration index to measure socioeconomic health inequalities; the appropriateness of the different versions depends on the measurement properties of the health variable and the intended value judgment. Using the European Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement, the article also empirically illustrates th

According to, for instance Severin Sorensen, the home security market (consumer market) as well as the Small businesses market has not really taken of and there has been debate as to why this is. Many seem to view the market with small businesses, as well as the regular consumer business, as something that requires too much sales time, too much support time and too little overall gains to be worth
