A great deal of moral courage or a really desperate situation – these are the requirements for someone to disclose state secrets. And life will most certainly never be the same again. This is what emerges from the experiences of the Cold War’s first major defectors, Mr and Mrs Petrov, as from those of Edward Snowden, who will perhaps never be able to return to his homeland without risking severe p

Lund University archaeologists have revealed details of late medieval artillery from the wreck of the royal Danish-Norwegian flagship, Gribshunden. The shipwreck is the only known example of its kind from the medieval period – as both ship and weapons are nearly identical to those of the early Spanish and Portuguese explorers. The new study tells the story of how early modern maritime adventurers

Former doctoral student Firas Jumaah and supervisor Charlotta Turner have had a special bond since 2014, when Jumaah and his family got caught up in the first ISIS lightning offensive in Iraq.  Employing far-reaching means, Charlotta Turner managed to get them back to Lund unharmed.

Engagement with alternative health theories and a scepticism towards authorities, politicians and pharmaceutical companies seem to unite the heterogeneous group of vaccine sceptics. “Many of them are not afraid of becoming infected with infectious diseases because they are convinced it will not happen”, says ethnologist and media studies researcher Mia-Marie Hammarlin, who is in the early phase of

Statistics on drug-related deaths (DRD) provide crucial information on the drug situation. The European Monitoring Centre for Drug and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) has published a specification for extracting DRD from national mortality registers to be used in international comparisons.
