In Colombia, the process of reintegration into civilian life is intended to support the legal life projects of people who have belonged to organized illegal armed groups.

Drawing from a collabor

Marriage with the prospect of migration may lead to new patterns of union formation in globalized marriage markets. Annika Elwert looks at characteristics and marriage patterns of majority natives who are in unions with immigrants who either lived in the country before union formation or migrated around the time of marriage, and gives insights about majority natives’ openness towards different imm

A long-term institutional, structural and comparative perspective is applied throughout the course. Starting with medieval financial and monetary arrangements we study changes of financial systems until today with a specific focus on a) successful financial systems, and b) financial and economic crises.

Kursen tar upp såväl internationellt underrättelsesamarbete mellan olika stater, som underrättelsesamarbete på nationell nivå mellan olika typer av myndigheter och motsvarande aktörer. Särskild tonvikt läggs vid internationellt underrättelsesamarbete inom signalspaning. För att ge studenterna en något bredare och mer tvärvetenskaplig bas, vilket återspeglar den bredd som återfinns inom underrättelThe course covers international intelligence cooperation between different states, as well as intelligence cooperation at national level between various types of authorities and corresponding stakeholders. Particular emphasis is placed on international intelligence cooperation in signals intelligence. In order to provide students with a slightly broader and more interdisciplinary base, reflecting

Varje år orsakar luftföroreningar 7 miljoner dödsfall globalt. Klimatet både värms och kyls av luftföroreningar, vilket gör dem till en av de största osäkerhetsfaktorerna i klimatmodeller. Den gröna omställningen och vår strävan efter cirkulär ekonomi kommer innebära att några luftföroreningskällor försvinner, men också att nya kommer att introduceras. Dessa komplexa problem behöver angripas transEvery year, 7 million people die due to exposure to air pollution. Air pollution both heats and cools global temperatures, hence it is one of the major reasons for uncertainties in climate models. The green transition and our aim for a circular economy will remove some of our current air pollution sources but introduce new ones. These complex questions demand a transdisciplinary approach. This cou

Filmerna och de frågor de väcker diskuteras tvärvetenskapligt med föreläsare från Filmvetenskap och från de Juridiska och Medicinska fakulteterna. Det unika i kursen är att se hur olika discipliners synsätt kompletterar och berikar varandra - hur olika synsätt är nödvändiga för en nyanserad förståelse för hur hälsa och välbefinnande framställs inom film och medier, samt hur dessa skThe films and the questions they raise are studied from an interdisciplinary point of view—aside from teachers from Film Studies/the Faculty of Humanities, the course features teachers from the faculties of Law, Medicine, and Fine and Performing Arts. Indeed, a crucial point of the course is to show how perspectives and approaches from different disciplines complement and enrich each other, and ho
