The narratives were: freedom of speech versus intimidation by Muslims; harrasment of Muslims; and as a sign of failed integration of Muslims into Danish
SRHOLEC M. A multilevel approach to geography of innovation, Regional Studies. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate how research on geography of innovation can benefit from multilevel modelling. Using micro-data from the third Community Innovation Survey in the Czech Republic, the hypothesis that regional framework conditions determine the innovative performance of firms and that this effect di
Honig and Samuelsson (2014) recently published an article in this outlet criticizing “Does business planning facilitate the development of new ventures? “ a paper I wrote with Scott Shane nearly 15 years ago. They claim that their effort adds to the discussion of (a) the merits of business planning, (b) data replication and extension, (c) sample selection bias, (d) evaluation of normative research
We present theoretical methods and computational strategies of the effects of nanoparticles on linear optical properties of molecules. We present quantum mechanical-molecular mechanics response methods for calculating electromagnetic properties of molecules interacting with nanoparticles and we report strategies for calculating electronic and redox states of molecules sandwiched between gold nanop
This chapter examines elite polarisation as a challenge to governance in parliamentary democracies. We emphasise the distinction between ideological polarisation based on substantive policy disagreements from affective polarisation, characterised by identity-based animosity that creates barriers to cooperation even when policy compromise might otherwise be possible. While parliamentary regimes hav
This thesis concerns the impact of instrumental benefits and norms on state behaviour in international relations. This is studied on the case of the EU’s and Japan’s initiation of enforcement against North Korea in the UN Human Rights Council, which has garnered increased attention since 2013 when a commission of inquiry successfully put the issue on the international community’s agenda. I ask w
This paper valuates two different financial contracts, the European Call and the Spread option using the Fourier transform. In the European Call case the underlying asset is modelled by the geometric Brownian motion stochastic differential equation. All necessary conditions in order for the transform to exists are examined and it turns out that the payoff needs to be scaled by an exponential facto
This thesis sheds light on the complexities of climate change discourse by applying Foucauldian discourse analysis to the Canadian 2030 Emissions Reduction Plan. Through a six-step analysis process, the thesis intends to investigate the effects of discourse on the understanding of climate change and the consequences of constituting knowledge through discourse. The six-step process addresses discur

The focus on sustainability has increased in our society during the last years and more firms are conducting CSR reports than ever before. Some claim that firms CSR efforts are only window dressing while other claims that sustainability leads to greater profitability for firms. Previous research is ambiguous when it comes to explain how and if sustainability efforts lead to higher profitability. S
The BSC is widely used mangement tool that is turning the vision and strategy into operational goals. However, after analyzing the criticism received the BSC, it seems af its internal focus, rigidity, static-ism and mechanical mindset limits the company's ability to create a strategy that takes important external factros into account.
I believe that vision, image and identity, brand and positioning are all parts of repositioning process. When repositioning, company has to decide if it is going to compete with same attributes as before or if company is entering totally new competitive domain with new dimensions. Fleur de Santé has changed its identity and chose which parts of it to point out; history, brand and natural ingredien
This paper examines to what extent a government decision concerning a debated climate issue was a result of the efforts of a climate justice campaign. In 2017, a campaign organisation was launched under the name ‘Fossilgasfällan’, and two and a half years later the Swedish government essentially met their most important demand. I argue that this was very likely indeed a consequence of a sustained
Delirium is a brain dysfunction often occurring in the intensive care unit (ICU); and frequently missed. This study aimed to investigate the compliance of ICU-nurses to a CAM-ICU implementation.Methods: Implementation guidelines in present study stated that a patient presumed to stay on the ICU for more than 24 hours, and who was 18 years or older was to be monitored for delirium using the Confusi
Neuroblastoma (NB) is a childhood cancer contributing to several cases of cancer related deaths in children every year. The oncogene MYCN is known to be related to a worse outcome in patients with NB and is found in approximately 20 % of the cases. MYCN is controlled during normal development, however in NB it is dysregulated. The understanding of NB has been hampered due to the lack of embryonic
Histatins are a family of human salivary peptides which act as a part of the innate immune system. There are three main members of the family: Histatin 1 (Hst1), Histatin 3 (Hst3), and Histatin 5 (Hst5). Histatins have long been known to possess differing antimicrobial properties, such as antifungal and antiviral capabilities. Hst5 is generally described as the most potent antifungal peptide in th
The purpose of this paper is to find the critical success factors of becoming a successful Challenger Brand. This paper aims to analyse the strategies and factors that contribute to the success and failures of these challenger brands. The report examines the importance of market research, customer-centricity, timing, and differentiation as the foundational principles for Challenger Brands to enter
Speech recognition is available on ordinary personal computers and is starting to appear in standard software applications. A known problem with speech interfaces is their integration into current graphical user interfaces. This paper reports on a prototype developed for studying integration of speech dialogue into graphical interfaces aimed towards programming of industrial robot arms. The aim of
