The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyse how the internal audit process as well as the outcome of that process is used for politically reasons. This will be accomplished by applying the political theory of politicisation to the analysis of the internal audit process within Swedish local authorities. By applying the theory of politicisation, this study contributes to our understandin
The 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda, during which Hutu and others who opposed the genocide were also killed, tore up the social fabric of Rwanda. The reconciliation effort has been immense involving actors from all walks of life all working with different methods and techniques. This study turns to the beautiful game, football, and aims to examine what role the sport has played in the po
2006 genomfördes en reform av den svenska asylprocessen. Det tidigare systemet hade utsatts för stark kritik, och särskilt överklagandeinstansen, Utlänningsnämnden, hade blivit en symbol för en godtycklig, och samtidigt restriktiv asylpolitik. I och med reformen ersattes Utlänningsnämnden av tre Migrationsdomstolar och en Migrationsöverdomstol. Det uttryckliga målet var att öka öppenheten och rättIn 2006 a reform of the Swedish asylum process took place. The former system had been the object of strong criticism, and especially the appellate body, the Aliens Appeals Board, had become a symbol of an arbitrary, and at the same time restrictive asylum policy. In the reform the Aliens Appeals Board was replaced with three Migration Courts and one Migration Court of Appeal. The outspoken aim was
Sufficiency has long been marginalized in the public and political sustainability discourse. Since attempts to reduce CO2 emissions in the long term have so far fallen short of expectations, sufficiency has recently approached the forefront of scientific and social debates about a »good life«. In addition to a strict reduction target, the sufficiency strategy promises psychological well-being and
The current literature on resilience shows a trend toward a dynamic process conceptualization, moving away from the previous trait-approach. However, the term “dynamic” is increasingly treated as a buzzword and is thereby oversimplified in the literature. The aim of this article is to develop a unified language pertaining to resilience as a dynamic process, so as to ensure progress in this field.
At the Large Hadron Collider, we prove the feasibility to detect pair production of the lightest CP-even Higgs boson h of a Type II 2-Higgs Doublet Model through the process qq̄ (′) → V hh (Higgs-strahlung, V = W ±,Z), in presence of two h → bb̄ decays. We also show that, through such production and decay channels, one has direct access to the following Higgs self-couplings, thus enabling one to d
Forskningsämnet förlags- och bokmarknadskunskap studerar förlag, bokmarknad, försäljningssystem, digitalisering av böcker, läsning, litteraturens plats i samhället samt sociala, ekonomiska och praktiska aspekter av böcker och litteratur.

Its topics, methods and theories originate from various disciplines, including comparative literature, book history, cultural studies, digital humanities, media and communicati
Detta forskningsområde fokuserar på hur hållbarhetsövergångar påverkar naturresurser och leveranskedjor, hur dessa förändringar uppfattas påverka säkerheten och hur dessa uppfattningar utlöser respons från olika aktörer. Hållbarhetsövergångar påverkar materialiteten i försörjningskedjor och infrastrukturnätverk. Att minska användningen av fossila resurser och kolintensiva produktionsmetoder ökar This research area focuses on how sustainability transitions impact natural resources and supply chains, how these changes are perceived to affect security and how these perceptions trigger response by different actors. Sustainability transitions impact the materiality of supply chains and infrastructure networks. Reducing the use of fossil resources and carbon intensive production methods increa

Näthinnan (Retina) är en del av det centrala nervsystemet och består till största delen av specialiserade nervceller. Vid degenerativ näthinnesjukdom, t.ex retinitis pigmentosa, åldersrelaterad makuladegeneration, näthinneavlossning och glaukom förstörs nervceller vilket resulterar i idag icke behandlingsbar synnedsättning. Traditionellt undersöks ofta sjukdom och behandling inom CNS experimentellTraditionally, experimental neuronal research is conducted on single cells after disruption of the tissue. A more pertinent approach to the complex CNS is to consider cells, extracellular matrix, and cell junctions as a tissue continuum through which mechanical and biochemical information is bidirectionally communicated. Our research is focused on retinal cell interactions in health and disease, a
Att insjukna i en reumatisk ledsjukdom innebär betydande förändringar i livet, särskilt när det sker under barndomen eller ungdomen. Vår forskning omfattar flera reumatiska och inflammatoriska tillstånd, med särskilt fokus på juvenil idiopatisk artrit (JIA), men även andra sjukdomar som Kawasakis sjukdom och MIS-C (hyperinflammation efter COVID-19-infektion). Vi bedriver både klinisk- och laboratoBeing diagnosed with a rheumatic disease entails significant life changes, especially when it occurs during childhood or adolescence. Our research encompasses several rheumatic and inflammatory conditions, with a particular focus on juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), but also other diseases such as Kawasaki's disease and MIS-C (hyperinflammation following COVID-19 infection). We conduct both cli

Avdelningen består av etnologi (se ämnesbeskrivning nedan)The research in ethnology has two primary orientations, both of which work with historical as well as contemporary perspectives. The first orientation focuses on practices of everyday life – that is to say the study of what people do in their daily lives and how such activities constitute the grounds for different cultural patters of thought and societal values. Research in this area of study prob
