The autonomous truck is gradually making its way onto our roads, and the elimination of the truck driver implies a substantial social-technical transition for logistics companies. Specifically, transport managers who work closely with the drivers on a daily basis, will potentially see a significant change at work. The implementation of the autonomous trucks in logistical companies could cause fric
Purpose – The key objective of this research is to discuss different restaurant strategies that emerged in Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark and Sweden in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and relate the respective restaurant activities to brand trust and reputation. Therefore, the restaurant industry is analyzed with respect to the pandemic and findings are put into context by explaining the countries’
The modernization of China comes as one of the most interesting topics not only at this moment but also has been researched for a long time. The individualization theories come as a result of modernity. This thesis draws on ten in-depth interviews in order to analyze the individualization among the educated, middle-class young people who were born in the 1990s by testing Yan Yunxiang’s theories of
Climate change affects every ecosystem, country, and individual on this planet. However, its impacts are felt differently across time and space, differentiating between the diverse communities, depending on their vulnerability. The purpose of this comparative case study is to problematize vulnerability to climate change by examining the differences in vulnerability between informal settlements and
The aim of this study was to analyze how former members of Jehovah’s Witnesses describe the social community in the religious movement and how participating in Jehovah’s Witnesses has affected the adult lives during the exiting process.

This thesis examines women’s subcultural participation based on ethnographic fieldwork and 73 interviews with women within the skateboarding and rave cultures. The study explores and develops how we view female participation. From a theoretical perspective, subcultural scholars have a tradition of assuming subcultures as masculine, viewing masculinity as the norm for authenticity. These assumption
A health impact assessment (HIA) is an important tool for making informed decisions regarding the design and evaluation of environmental interventions. In this study, we performed a quantitative HIA for the population of Scania (1,247,993), the southernmost county in Sweden, in 2016. The impact of annual mean concentrations of particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter <2.5 µm (PM2.5), modele
In the last 40 years, leadership studies (LS) have moved from a condition of near despair, where complaints of slow progress were commonplace, to a situation of self-confidence and self-praise. However, during recent years we have seen an upsurge in criticism alongside a contradiction between positive leadership ideas and a working life bearing little imprint of the upbeat messages said to charact
Vi vill med den här artikeln peka på att Sveriges städer har flera utmaningar kring styrning och hantering av vatten, samt föreslår sju principer för lösningar. Klimatförändringarna och den urbana tillväxten gör att åtgärder behövs nu för att hantera både vattenbrist och översvämning på ett integrerat sätt. Här fokuserar vi på kommunnivå och urbana områden, där vi argumenterar för att det behövs eWe argue in this paper that Swedish urban areas have several urgent challenges when it comes to water governance and we propose seven principles for addressing them. Climate change and urban growth call for swift action to manage both water scarcity and flooding in an integrated way. This paper focuses on the municipal level for which we argue that there is a need for a more systematic approach. T
Resveratrol is a photosensitive, bioactive molecule which has received increasing research interest during the past decade for its antioxidant properties. However, it has low solubility in water or common triglyceride oils. Resveratrol solubilization in oil can only be achieved in essential oils, such as flavour oils, but the stability of emulsions produced with this type of oils is low as they ar
Pressurised meltwater has a major impact on ice dynamics, as well as on sedimentary and deformational processes occurring below/in front of glaciers and ice sheets, but its role in glaciotectonic processes is yet to be fully understood. This study explores micro- and macroscale structures developed within décollements in two thrust-block moraines of Late Weichselian age in Melasveit, western Icela
