In this paper, we review the development of critical management studies, point at problems and explore possible developments. We begin by tracing out two previous waves of critical management studies. We then focus on more recent work in critical management studies and identify ten over-arching themes (Academia, alternatives organizations, control and resistance, discourse, Foucauldian studies, ge
Background: COVID-19 caused a profound global impact, resulting in significant cases and deaths. The progression of COVID-19 clinical manifestations is influenced by a dysregulated inflammatory response. Early identification of the subclinical progression is crucial for timely intervention and improved patient outcomes. While there are various biomarkers to predict disease severity and outcomes, t
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka socialarbetares beskrivning av våldsutsattas och våldsutövares situation samt att undersöka könets betydelse för hur insatser utformas inom socialtjänsten. Vidare var studiens frågeställningar hur socialarbetare definierade våld i nära relationer, hur socialarbetare beskrev mäns respektive kvinnors upplevelse av att vara våldsutsatt i en nära relation samtThe aim of this qualitative study was to examine social workers´ experiences of their work with violence in intimate relationships. This was performed by taking part of the social workers narratives about their work through semi - structured interviews. The social workers are employed at social services in Helsingborg, Sweden. The survey is built upon theories about intersectionality and gender. W
Background and Objectives: This research explored the possibility of organisations implementing the work of CIP for the right beneficial reason, or if the implementation was done because the subject is a trend. While CIP-methods are getting more and more popular, it remains in many cases unclear which concepts suit best to what organisation. Having a single organisation implementing a numerous var
I takt med den globala urbaniseringen växer städerna. I storstäderna finns en stor brist på obebyggd mark vilket leder till att städerna förtätas, något som medför nya risker när en större mängd människor befinner sig på en mindre yta. Att inkludera riskhantering i stadsbyggnadsprocessen är därför en av flera viktiga delar i utvecklingen av städerna. Processen för stadsbyggnad kan ses som en proceThe global urbanisation is causing cities to grow. A shortage of unused land in the metropolises, cause a concentration of the cities, presenting new risks as a bigger population occupy a small area. For this reason, including risk management in the urban planning process is one of many important factors in the development of cities. In order to ease the process of risk management and improve tra
How the architecture relates to the nature reflects our overall view of the environment. The built has the ability and posibility to enlighten and enhance the value of the nature, as well as it can do the opposite. In Norrbotten, between Jokkmokk and Gällivare, lies Muddus. Muddus is Swedens largest national park forest with an old-growth forest unaffected by the modern forest industry. Ravines cu
This study aims to examine how social construction of domestic violence can be shaped by claims-making and social interaction on internet forums. Using a qualitative approach the empirical data was collected in parallel with the theoretical framework. The data comprise eight different forum threads covering incidents of domestic violence discussed by forum users. The results show that the social c
This project was conducted focusing on the traditional Japanese dish sushi. The dish and concept have been on a steady rise on the Swedish market as well as becoming a favorite in the hearts of swedes. There are difficulties surrounding prepping and handling of sushi and malpractice can easily occur. If malpractice should occur, it could lead to many consequences as serious as food poisoning. From
The main focus of this Master Thesis is the development and evaluation of an actuation system that controls a variable compressor for the automotive industry. This variation allows the compressor to produce different boost pressures on demand. Before the development process could start a theoretical analysis of the different forces acting on the system were conducted. These analyses consisted of a
Numeriska implementeringar av GMRES-metoden för minimering av residualer: För att förstå exakt vad som händer när, till exempel, luft strömmar över en flygplansvinge eller när vatten flyter kring ett fartygsskrov, behövs omfattande datorberäkningar. Eftersom storheter som vindhastighet, lufttryck eller temperatur kan variera redan över små avstånd, måste beräkningarna göras i små steg, vilket kräThe generalized minimal residual method (GMRES) is an iterative method used to find numerical solutions to non-symmetric linear systems of equations. The method relies on constructing an orthonormal basis of the Krylov space and is thus vulnerable to an imperfect basis caused by computational errors. There have been attempts to address this issue by devising variations of the method that are less
Vi lever i en tid av snabb teknisk utveckling. På bara några decennier har den sociala miljön förändrats drastiskt. Vi har gått från en värld där social interaktion bestod i direkt kontakt mellan två individer till en värld där en stor del av det sociala utbytet inte sker ansikte mot ansikte utan skärm mot skärm. Denna nya verklighet har medfört en intensifierad konflikt mellan två av våra mest beWe are living in a world of rapid progress. In just a few decades our social environment has developed drastically. We have progressed from a world where social interaction consisted in direct contact between individuals to a world where a significant part of the social exchange no longer happens face to face but screen to screen. This new reality has resulted in an intense conflict between two of
This study presents an empirical investigation of i) testing the Granger Causality between economic growth and aggregated carbon dioxide (CO2) emission; and economic growth and disaggregated CO2 emission from burning fossil fuel coal, oil and natural gas respectively; ii) the potential impact on economic growth if countries substitute CO2 emission from dirty energy, coal, by emission from relative
Ethnographically inspired methods have in recent years been successfully applied in Information Science (IS) research on different forms of social media related practices (c.f. Sundin & Francke 2009a; 2009b, Kjellberg 2010). This paper aims to contribute to an emerging discussion on the use of this methodological approach for analysing and comprehending consequences of the 2.0-turn in public l
Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling behandlar strömlinjeformade subglaciala bäddformer (ofta kallade drumliner) i södra Sverige. Det övergripande syftet med denna studie är att bidra till en lösning av det så kallade ”drumlinproblemet”. Termen drumlin har kommit att tillämpas på en grupp av landformer vars interna sediment, strukturella uppbyggnad och yttre form kan variera kraftigt. DessThis thesis investigates stream-lined subglacial bedforms (often referred to as drumlins) in southern Sweden. The broad aim of this is to contribute to the solution of the ‘drumlin problem’. The term drumlin has come to be applied to a wide range of features whose internal architecture (core) and overall morphology are seen to vary greatly. This range in characteristics is in part responsible for
Swedish welfare policy has in several ways promoted the individual rather than the family as a unit. This is not a phenomenon happening only in Sweden, but one occurring in many other Western countries where individualization is strongly emphasized. Sweden is, however, interesting as an example of a country with deep collective roots regarding issues of welfare. The welfare state has been, and to
In the spring of 1945, survivors of the Nazi concentration camps arrived in southern Sweden. A project was launched to collect eye-witness accounts of their experiences and document them for posterity. The scholar in charge of this project was Sture Bolin, professor of history at Lund University After his death Erik Lonnroth hailed him as a 'world-famous' historian. By the turn of the century he w
