The road to a Nobel Prize is usually long and winding. This article tracks theroad to Robert Fogel’s and Douglass North’s shared prize in economics in 1993through Lennart Jörberg’s correspondence from 1965 to 1989. Jörberg, for almosttwenty years professor and head of the Department of Economic History at LundUniversity, had during two year-long visits in the United States in the 1950s and1960s de

This study examines the impact of Sweden’s unique two-part Minimum Legal Drinking Age (MLDA) policy on alcohol consumption and health using regression discontinuity design. In Sweden on-licence purchasing of alcohol is legalised at 18 and off-licence purchasing is legalised later at 20 years of age. We find an immediate and significant 6% jump in participation and a larger increase in number of da

Young women who spend all their spare time shopping. Lost, superficial souls with no purpose in life? Or creative and productive people? Emma Samsioe, who has spent several years studying their behaviour, wants to show a more nuanced picture of the phenomenon. Emma Samsioe. It all started when Emma Samsioe was out shopping and noticed the young girls who mostly seemed to be just hanging out in the

We use a within-household estimator and data from nationally representative surveys of school-age children's literacy and numeracy skills, which include retrospective information on preschool atte

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. There are delicious smells emanating from the kitchen at the Malmö apartment of nutrition physiologist, Louise Brunkwall. Today, she is making pasta and vegetable sauce for lunch. A clean up before the interview with LUM means she can no longer find anything in the kitchen cupboards:  “Usually there is always some kin

The militarization of refugee camps is not a new phenomenon, it can be traced back over half a decade to the independence movement of former colonies. However, it's first during recent years that the UNHCR and host states have tried to act on the problem as to retain the civilian and humanitarian status of the camps. Unfortunately has their measures proven to be inadequate and the militarizati

Under the Sign of Regret focuses on aesthetically mediated responses to regret. It interrogates the qualities of the feeling of regret as well as what is produced under its influence (as objects and as experiences). These two aims—considering regret as a mode and as a tool—hinge between two complementary definitions of aesthetics: on the one hand, the quality of feelings or the “distribution of th

My thesis is based on- and a further development of an evaluation I made of an IT-project aimed at the young and socially excluded. By opening IT-cafés in certain housing areas, the aim of this project was to strengthen the IT-skills of the young and to create social networks. With my study as an example, I want to elucidate the formation process of a project. What happens when different companies

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ämnet för föreliggande avhandling är filosofisociologi. Filosofisociologin är en underavdelning till kunskapssociologin. Som framgår av namnet intresserar sig denna disciplin för det sociologiska studiet av filosofin. I och med att detta område är tämligen outforskat är denna avhandling i hög grad explorativ till sin karaktär. Betraktad som en helhet syftar avhandlingenThe subject matter of the present doctoral thesis is the sociology of philosophy, a sub-discipline within the general field of sociology. As the term clearly indicates, the sociology of philosophy concerns the sociological study of philosophy. As this domain is still, to some extent, virgin territory, my thesis is mainly explorative in nature. Viewed as a whole, it aims at investigating what a soc

Förtäckta förmåner har länge varit fall för diskussion vad gäller deras hantering, särskilt inom skatterätten. I fåmansaktiebolag är företeelsen vanligt förekommande och därför inriktar sig uppsatsen på regler just vid den bolagsformen. Först och främst redogör jag för de associationsrättsliga regler som behandlar förmåner. I ABL definieras förtäckta förmåner som en ”annan affärshändelse”. UttrycCovert benefits have long been discussed in terms of their management, particularly in tax law. In closely held companies, the occurrence is common, and the essay therefore focuses on rules concerning those kinds of companies. The Companies Act defines covert benefits as "another business event." The term is intended to be compared with the three usual transactions in limited liability

International Market Driven engineering (iMDE) is an international course on innovation where Swedish and Chinese engineering students are mixed with business and design students. The course is run on a yearly basis, it is six weeks long and takes place in China. Both the development and the execution of the course is made as a joint project between the Swedish and Chinese instructors. The course

In this paper we explore the potential of academic podcasting to effect positive change within academia and between academia and society. Building on the concept of “epistemic living spaces,” we consider how podcasting can change how we evaluate what is legitimate knowledge and methods for knowledge production, who has access to what privileges and power, the nature of our connections within acade

This paper tests the null hypothesis of no horizontal inequity in delivery of health care by use of count data hurdle models and Swedish micro data. It differs from most earlier work in three principal ways: First, the tests are carried out separately for physician and hospital care; second, the tests are carried out separately for the probability of seeking care and the amount of care received (g

Göteborgs stad har uttryckt en vilja att införa fler offentliga badplatser i Göteborg då vattenkvaliteten i Göta Älv förbättrats. Gamla färjeläget i Eriksberg är i behov av utveckling och det finns potential att bidra med något nytt för staden. Arbetet utforskar rumsliga svar för hur skandinaver kan anamma exotiska badritualer. Detta skulle tillgängliggöra dessa ritualer för fler människor, samtidThe City of Gothenburg has expressed a desire to introduce more public bathing locations in Gothenburg as the water quality in the Göta River is improving. The old ferry-point is in need of development and there is a possibility to contribute with something new for the city. The work explores spatial answers for how Scandinavians can practice exotic bathing rituals. It would make these rituals acc

On 31 March, the news arrived that many had been waiting for since last autumn, when the University submitted its applications to the Swedish Research Council’s eight new Strategic Research Areas (SRAs). Last year saw a great deal of effort go into the delicate work of coordinating researchers, faculty members and partner universities during what was a short window in which the call for proposals
