Consumers increasingly demand that brand authenticity means that the brand's values are aligned with the corporation's actions, which are made transparent (Holt 2002). Interrogating Holt's claim that "consumer resistance" is inevitably staged in the marketplace, I suggest that the implications of seeing brand authenticity as linked to trust are related to how the consumer's role on the market is p

En teoretisk och politisk introduktion till ekomarxismen, i synnerhet de bidrag som översätts till boken Ekomarxism: Grundtexter.

The principality of Rügen was a fief under the Danish kings for nearly 200 years. In that time its princes provided valuable assistance in the form of primarily military service. This thesis tells the story of the forgotten principality and how its princes helped shape many of the most important events in Danish medieval history. From the conquest of Estonia, the civil wars of the 1240-60 and the

The production of health economic evaluations of pharmaceuticals is a global, multibillion dollar industry. Despite this fact, little is known about what happens after a health economic evaluation has been produced. Will it be used at all, and if so, how? Who uses economic evaluations and for what purposes? Are there differences in the use patterns between decision makers at macro, meso and micro

Popular Abstract in Swedish Geografisk differentiering och populationshistoria hos Rödblära (Silene dioica) och S. hifacensis: allozym- och kloroplast-DNA variation När man studerar evolution är det viktigt att veta hur mycket genetisk variation det finns inom och mellan individer, populationer och arter. Hur mycket genetisk variation det finns och hur den är fördelad inom en art är viktigt för aIn this thesis I used allozymes and PCR-RFLP analysis of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) to investigate geographic differentiation within the widespread Silene dioica (L.) Clairv. (Caryophyllaceae) and the narrowly-distributed S. hifacensis Rouy ex Willk., (a Spanish endemic). In an investigation of allozyme variation in Nordic S. dioica, multivariate analysis of variation at eight polymorphic loci reveal

We present a method for solving the previously unstudied problem of localizing a set of receivers and directions from transmitters placed far from the receivers, measuring unsynchronized time of arrival data. The same problem is present in node localization of microphone and antenna arrays. The solution algorithm using 5 receivers and 9 transmitters is extended to the overdetermined case in a stra

1 INTRODUCTION In a global and highly competitive economy, companies have now adopted an increasingly integrated ap-proach to product development. However, packaging logistics has been left out from this integration trend. The reasons are multiple: first packaging is not considered to be an integral part of the product, so it is not part of the product “culture” of the company. In most companies,

Popular Abstract in Swedish Det är dans i parken ikväll: Om samverkan mellan näringsliv och akademi med forskningsparken som mäklande miljö och aktör Många anser att gapet mellan näringsliv och akademi behöver överbryggas. I olika sammanhang konstateras dock att det finns svårigheter att få till stånd täta relationer parterna emellan. Därför har en rad olika initiativ tagits för att underlätta läThe aim of this thesis is to examine interaction between the business community and academia, and consider the Science Park as a brokering environment and actor. The bulk of park-oriented research, like park-related practice, is based on network theory and thinking. Taking such an approach, it is natural to study the intensity and nature of the interactions of the involved parties – in this case,

Post-silicon validation and debug, or ensuring that software executes correctly on the silicon of a multi-processor system-on-chip (MPSOC) is complicated, as it involves checking global properties that are distributed on the chip. In this paper we define an architecture to non-intrusively observe global properties at run time using distributed monitors. The architecture enables to perform actions

Artikeln handlar om muslimska högtider, deras ursprung och betydelse i vardagslivet så som i religiösa livet.
