Mobile commerce, or m-commerce, is an idea that involves different applications, new technologies and services which are accessible from Internet-enabled Mobile devices. In our study we compare existing 3G mobile services in two countries: Sweden and Japan. Furthermore, we investigate why these services are at the different stages of the development. In addition, we examine what may be the obstacl
Increases in the size of agricultural fields, the loss of permanent green field edges and other semi-natural habitats have accompanied the intensification of agriculture, and are still ongoing. From a farm economic perspective, an increase in field size increases efficiency mainly due to cost savings. However, recent evidence suggests that increases in field size might lead to the loss of ecosyste
I kontexten av växande e-handel och ökande konkurrens bland e-handelsaktörer världen över blir bra service till kunderna alltmer aktuell för fortsatt framgång.

This article compares the Islamic divorce practice of two female Islamic authorities with that of nineteen male Islamic authorities to demonstrate that women have important roles in relation to Islamic divorce. It also analyses how the two Danish female informants, Zayn
Recent evidence suggests that there are serious information asymmetries in the Kenyan financial market. Between 2006 and 2009, the formal and semi-formal financial sectors in Kenya increased a lot. In contrast to what classic economic theories would predict, the informal financial sector experienced a minor increase. This thesis, through interviews in a minor field study, suggests that the informa
This paper explores short and long-run changes in the energy to capital relation. The K/E ratio is calculated for Sweden 1870–2000, at the national, industrial and branch levels. A basic result is a substantial long-run increase in the K/E ratio which is positively correlated with the relative price pE/pK. The price response is stronger in energy intensive industries than in labour intensive indus
