Misstag kan ske på alla arbetsplatser men ett misstag i vården kan innebära skillnaden mellan liv eller död. Vi ville därför undersöka hur misstag, som hämtats från Lex Maria- anmälningar, kan ha orsakats av bristande ledarskapsstrukturer och den svenska sjukvårdens organisationsstruktur. Data har samlats enligt en metodkombination av kvantitativa enkäter och kvalitativa intervjuer. Legitimerade o

Since the economic convergence between East and West Germany has come to a halt, the lack of scale and agglomeration effects is assumed to be contributing to this trend of stagnation. This paper studies the development of patterns of these effects in East Germany with an emphasis on the German reunification and economic integration process while accounting for asymmetries between East and West. Ex

Financial markets turn all their attention towards the Federal Reserve Bank and the European Central Bank whenever there are the slightest rumors of a change in the policy rate of interest. But why is this rate so important and what is the theoretical basis of its existence in the first place? In modern economic literature theories of interest are rarely explicitly touched upon and interest is oft

Changes in water surface area (w.s.a.) in Arctic regions have been linked to climate warming and permafrost degradation (Briggs et al. 2014). As permafrost thaws, thermokarst lakes are formed. This causes the surface to get wetter. Although, a drying of the surface has often been observed in areas of discontinuous permafrost. As the climate warms, permafrost starts to thaw from underneath the lake

Networks have been recognized as an alternative internationalization approach for Professional Service Firms (PSFs). However, the exploration of tensions, which result from attempts to unite network members and at the same time support their diversity, has been rather neglected in the past. Furthermore, the role of local embeddedness in the presented setting seems to have been overlooked. We have

Vid kallpressning av oljerika rapsfrön för att utvinna rapsolja blir det en pressrest kallad rapsfrökaka. Denna rapskaka har en hög proteinhalt och en aminosyrasammansättning bättre än flertalet andra vegetabilier. Förhoppningen är att detta kan utnyttjas i framtida livsmedelstillverkning. Raps innehåller en hög halt antinutrienter i form av glukosinolater, fenolföreningar och fytinsyra som efterWhen coldpressing rapeseeds in extraction of rapeseed oil, there becomes a pomace called rapeseed press rest. This rapeseed press rest has high protein content and an amino acid composition better than most other vegetables. Hopefully, rapeseed press rest can be used in future food production. Rapeseed contains a high level of antinutrients in the form of glucosinolates, phenolic compounds and ph

This political and economic co-option of sustainable development has given rise to a new slogan: “system change, not climate change”. Our crisis is no longer just an environmental one, but a structural one, in which our means of living have outdistanced the ends for which we l

Den reella jämställdheten anses däremot inte vara uppnådd. Kvinnor och män har inte samma förutsättningar i realiteten. Den här uppsatsen undersöker därför om domstolen, den myndighet som ska upprätthålla ordning i samhället, och dess domare som t
