Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera ett tjänsteföretags implementering av CSR för att få en ökad förståelse om vilka faktorer som påverkar implementeringen av den. Vi har utgått från det interna företagsperspektivet för att på lämpligt sätt kunna besvara vår problemformulering. Vi har gjort en fallstudie med ett kvalitativt tillvägagångssätt med abduktiv ansats. Vi har utgått från traditionell

Dagens samhälle har blivit alltmer komplext vilket lett till att företag måste söka nya tillvägagångssätt för att hävda sig i den alltmer rådande konkurrensen. Företag måste i och med globaliseringens framfart bli mer effektiva i sin marknadsföring och på något vis skapa mervärde hos konsumenten för att urskilja sig gentemot sina konkurrenter. Uppsatsen Varumärke.com behandlar huruvida företag kan

This study is about diplomatic recognition, and why some states have not received full diplomatic recognition from the international community. The central research-problem focuses on the factors that affect a state's foreign policy decision not to recognize other states. Taiwan and Kosovo are chosen as research-cases through a strategic case-selection. The theoretical framework used in this s

A high excess mortality is well described after hip fracture. Deaths are in part related to comorbidity and in part due directly or indirectly to the hip fracture event itself (causally related deaths). The aim of this study was to examine the quantum and pattern of mortality following hip fracture. We studied 160,000 hip fractures in men and women aged 50 years or more, in 28.8 million person-yea

Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) are traditionally the domain of pediatricians and internists for metabolic diseases. In general, neurologists only become involved when these disorders are complicated by neurologic symptoms such as seizures, developmental delay, or motor problems. However, in recent years and mainly due to the successes of next-generation sequencing, the number of IEMs primarily

The chapter will use examples from practices of electronic music to probe potential roles of automation. A central question is how automation can be understood in different contexts. The chapter brings up and analyses a selection of concrete engagements with technology in relation to the practices and genealogies of music making. What could be called provisional lessons from electronic music are s

Although intimate partner violence is far from a new problem in society, it has lately gained increased attention both by governments and by the research community. In 2007, the Swedish government issued an action plan for “combating men’s violence against women, violence and oppression in the name of honour and violence in same-sex relationships” (2007/08:39), which among other things included a

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a solid-state welding process where metals are joined without melting. Heat is generated by friction between a rotating non-consumable tool and the work-piece material, and by mechanical deformation of the material. The process, invented in 1991, provides several benefits over arc welding and other fusion processes: No filler material has to be added, low energy cons

Background: Mechanical ventilation is a potentially painful and discomforting intervention that is widely used in neonatal intensive care. Newborn infants demonstrate increased sensitivity to pain, which may affect clinical and neurodevelopmental outcomes. The use of drugs that reduce pain might be important in improving survival and neurodevelopmental outcomes. Objectives: To determine the benefi

Swedish mining is often envisioned as virtuous, as coinciding harmoniously with quests for sustainability and the cultural survival of indigenous Sami peoples. This chapter posits that Sweden’s sense of exceptionalism in mining is embedded in a colonial/extractive system of knowledge that fails to mention non-capitalist, anticolonial relationalities to nature and ways of life. The normalised statu

Objective: To identify predictors of prediabetes using feature selection and machine learning on a nationally representative sample of the US population. Materials and methods: We analyzed n = 6346 men and women enrolled in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2013-2014. Prediabetes was defined using American Diabetes Association guidelines. The sample was randomly partitioned to Objective: To identify predictors of prediabetes using feature selection and machine learning on a nationally representative sample of the US population.
