Ascending the Waste Hierarchy: Re-use Potential in Swedish Recycling Centres
According to the waste hierarchy principle, which constitutes the basis of European waste legislation, waste prevention and re-use are considered – most of the times – better waste management options than recycling. However, prevention and re-use activities are difficult to operationalise and measure, without a monitoring framework in place. This contribution investigates the potential of re-using
Labour and the ‘law of one price’ : regional wage convergence of farm workers in Sweden, 1757–1980
Economic theory predicts that differences in wages for workers with similar skills will decline as labour mobility increase. This prediction is reminiscent of the ‘law of one price’, the notion that markets, if unfettered, eliminates price differentials of similar commodities across space. But can we really apply the economic logic of the commodity market to the labour market, governed as it is by
Emergence of carsharing business models and sustainability impacts in Swedish cities
The sharing economy has become prominent in the policy, business and academic discourse as a way to achieve greater levels of resource efficiency in sustainability transitions.

Indoor-to-outdoor ratios of ultrafine particles in Swedish residences
A number of health effects have been linked to exposure to airborne particles, however the consequences of exposure to ultrafine particles is largely unknown. Ultrafine particles can be emitted from different indoor activities or be of the outdoor origin. This is further complicated by the fact that we are spending majority of the time indoors. The aim of this work was to assess the influence of r
Application of positive matrix factorization (PMF) to real time aerosol mass spectrometry measurements in an occupied apartment in Sweden
Introduction Given that in developed countries we spend about 65% of our time in private homes (Brasche et al. 2005), understanding the exposures in homes is of outmost importance. Airborne particle concentrations indoors can be affected by particles of indoor and outdoor origins, as well as physico-chemical processes indoors, outdoor infiltration affected by tightness of the building envelope and

Meaning of home and health dynamics among younger older people in Sweden
Research has shown that positive evaluations of home are important for very old people’s health, well-being and independence in daily life. The rationale for the present study derives from our survey study findings, confirming such associations also in a younger cohort (N = 371). The purpose of this study was to further increase the understanding of the dynamics of meaning of home and health among
