År 2011 infördes entreprenörskap i den svenska skolans läroplaner. På 1980-talet ansågs dock utbildningsorganisationen Ung Företagsamhet (UF), som fokuserar på entreprenörskapsutbildning för ungdomar, vara ideologiskt kontroversiell. Under loppet av 30 år har synen på entreprenörskap och UF:s status förändrats i grunden. Denna avhandling undersöker hur och varför entreprenörskap blev ett kunskapsoIn 2011, entrepreneurship was added to the curricula of Swedish schools at all levels. In the 1980s, however, the educational organization Junior Achievement (JA), that focuses on entrepreneurship education for young people, was considered ideologically controversial. Over the course of 30 years, the view of entrepreneurship and the status of JA has changed fundamentally. This thesis investigates

Unmarried childless older men in rural China represent a growing group who face distinct care situations. Support networks are essential to their health and care, yet those networks remain understudied. This study aims to investigate the support networks available to this group, how they change over time, and the factors affecting their development. Guided by a situational perspective on care, the

Samhällsinformation är ett kärnuppdrag. Gränserna för vad det innebär beror på ett biblioteks omgivning. "Det innebär dock inte att bibliotek bör göra allt", skriver bibliotekschefer och forskare.

This paper provides a historical overview of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Conference of the Parties meetings and reviews the major outcomes of the meetings up to the most recent, which took place in Dubai. We describe how climate negotiations, agreements and policies have evolved, summarise the main points reached, and highlight the key concerns of low-income countries

Among the hundreds of sites that housed survivors of Nazi persecution who came to Sweden in the spring and summer of 1945, one of the largest was at the small village of Öreryd. Between June 1945 and September 1946, around a thousand Jewish and non-Jewish Polish survivors came to this site, where they were expected to stay only until they were well enough to return to their home countries or migra

Child abuse, including physical, sexual, or emotional violence or neglect, is a global problem with serious and long-term consequences for children. Even though child abuse is prohibited in Denmark, the estimated number of physically and sexually abused children is relatively high, whereas the annual number of forensically examined children is low. We present the Danish practice and legal foundati

Conducting digital research on the far-right continuum (covering a broad array of actors further to the right from what is generally considered the mainstream right), evokes several serious ethical challenges. This becomes particularly poignant in cases whose research subjects hold illiberal, extreme, and potentially hostile views toward the researcher. In this chapter, we critically reflect on th

In this article, I explore the assigned role of interpreters in journalism training programmes in Vietnam, focusing on two media aid projects funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida): the Local Radio Project and the Further Training of Journalists programme. The study is based on qualitative analyses of project documentation and interviews with former trainers. A t

Notwithstanding its many successes since 1945, the project of European integration currently faces major difficulties, from financial crises and mass immigration to the impending departure of the UK from the European Union. At the same time, these challenges have spurred civil society organizations within and across Europe, revealing a shared public sphere in which citizens can mobilize around ref

This paper calls for renewed consideration of the way researchsubjects are selected in the study of subcultures. All too often,subcultural researchers limit themselves to the use of one or twoof the orthodox sampling designs, such as ‘conveniencesampling’ (selecting subjects who are readily available) or ‘chainreferral sampling’ (selecting a readily available subject who refersthe researcher to ot

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders. The motor and non-motor symptoms of PD lead to a number of consequences in everyday life for persons with PD (PwPD). PwPD continuously need to adapt to their new life situation and despite medical treatment, the impact of PD on everyday life is inevitable and can lead to a lower level of life satisfaction (LS). LS is a

In this presentation we focus on men’s violence against the female population both during and in the wake of climate disasters in the Philippines and Vietnam. We examine the legal framework which has been ratified in the two countries to protect individual’s right to live a life without being abused and; how various types of organizations work to prevent and combat specific kinds of violence in th

Social networks are usually considered as positive sources of social support, a role which has been extensively studied in the context of domestic violence. To victims of abuse, social networks often provide initial emotional and practical help as well useful information ahead of formal institutions. Recently, however, attention has been paid to the negative responses of social networks. In this a

National park agencies in Africa often lack incentives to maximize revenue, despite the decline in conservation subsidies from the State. We explore the potential of pricing policy to generate funds for extensive conservation. We estimate recreation demand by international tourists for a popular South African park, calculate the consumer surplus and find the revenue-maximizing entrance fee. Our re

Det svenska universitetssystemet har vuxit till att bli en omfattande och komplex institution. Expansionen har inte bara gällt antalet studenter, lärare och forskare utan också den administrativa ram de verkar inom och de personalkategorier som ingår däri. Men förhållandet mellan lärarkår och administratörer präglas inte sällan av misstro. I sin artikel vill Ola Agevall och Gunnar Olofsson tränga
