Recent critics of organizational learning and its normative offshoot the ‘learning organization’ have posited that conceptualisations of organizations based on knowledge and learning constitute a rhetorical device enabling elites to assert different forms of control through a new ‘normalising discourse’. The paper, whilst welcoming such critique, nevertheless asks whether it is adequate to dismiss

Following the successful operation of the Multipole Injection Kicker (MIK) in the MAX IV 3 GeV storage ring, we plan to introduce a similar device in the MAX IV 1.5 GeV ring. In order to assess the effectiveness of such device and to define its working parameters, we performed a series of studies aimed at understanding the beam dynamics related to the injection process. In this paper we describe t

Recent years’ publications have shown how valuable information can be in the integrity management of civil structures. Monitoring systems increase the knowledge about the structural state, improving the prioritization of the interventions, and the selection of optimal maintenance strategy and thereby allowing for budget optimization and risk minimization. This paper investigates the effect of mult

Aim: Our primary aim was to assess how dispersal limitation affected forest changes in the Northern Hemisphere during the last glacial cycle, and especially after the last deglaciation. Location: Northern Hemisphere (between 20°N and 80°N). Time Period: 50,000–0 years before present. Major Taxa Studied: Angiosperms and gymnosperms. Methods: We used the LPJ-GM 2.0 dynamic global vegetation model to

Modern imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes have extensively observed young nearby supernova remnants (SNRs), with ages of about 1000 years or less, in the very-high-energy (VHE) gamma-ray band. These efforts resulted in the detection of VHE emission from three young SNRs – Cassiopeia A, Tycho, and SN 1006 – and provided significant evidence for emission from the more distant Kepler’s SNR. How

Education reduces the intergenerational transfer of poverty and boosts growth according to the Social Investment (SI) approach (Morel, Palier, and Palme 2011). However, educational systems differ in their capacity to promote equality and produce the skills needed in today‘s knowledge economies. Despite extensive scholarship on how education policies vary in terms of their social and economic effec

The longitudinal motion and the intramural shear strain of the arterial wall increase dramatically in response to blood pressure, thereby impacting the vascular wall microenvironment. Exposure to a sedentary lifestyle has been identified as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease, but it has been shown that intermittent physical activity embedded into everyday life is enough to impro

The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the ‘normality’ of our everyday lives, but it did so in the wake of a series of crises within the capitalist system, which worsened the conditions for a liveable world for many while benefitting only a few. In response to these crises, the contributions in this issue highlight the diverse ways activists continue to organise in the midst of social, political, and eco

The modern food industry faces the challenge of catering to diverse consumer preferences while maintaining efficiency and profitability. Rapid shifts in consumer trends, emerging technologies, and evolving regulations make it difficult for companies to keep pace, often resulting in inefficiencies and lost opportunities. The vast amount of data generated across production, supply chains, and marke

The European Monetary Union was formed over a decade ago with a mission to create a single market with a single currency for the European Union members. Today only 19 out of the European Union members have adopted the official common currency, the Euro. The purpose for this thesis is to asses how the Euro has effected Finland’s exports during the time period 1995-2014. This has been estimated thro

The aim of this project was to determine the consequences of the large-scale introduction of wood-based biofuels in the road transport sector. Therefore a model has been developed to project the demand for wood in Sweden in the period from 2007 to 2050. The wood-using sectors that were taken into account are: the sawmill industry; the paper and pulp industry, which was split in three: integrated c

The development of the constitution of Zimbabwe reflects many aspects of the political turmoil currently troubling the country. The constitution as an institution can therefore be analyzed in a perspective of historical institutionalism where the theory of path dependency provides an understanding of the choices made by different political actors throughout Zimbabwe’s independent history. The adop
