When adopting the view of the multinational corporation (MNC) as a transnational corporation, subsidiaries become strategic partners. It is important to recognize that within the MNC knowledge may originate also from subsidiaries and thus flow in different directions. The aim of the article is to understand the role of multiple knowledge flows when international retail firms enter new markets. A q

Under en rad år har kulturnämnden satsat betydande resurser på det kulturpedagogiska fältet, med särskild inriktning barn och unga. I september 2008 beslöt kulturnämnden om andra fördelningsprinciper. Kulturpedagogiska medel som tidigare knutits till tjänster blev särskilda uppdragsöverens-kommelser som skulle styra verksamheten. Bidraget reducerades till 75 % av tidigare nivåer, resterande belopp

In connection with the international housing exhibition Bo01 in Malmo, Sweden in 2001, several residential units were built. To get building permission, all developers had to present calculations proving that their buildings would use in total less than 105 kWh/(m(2.)year) bought energy. Measurements show that none of the buildings fulfilled the demand concerning energy use. According to the calcu

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur påverkas djurplanktonsamhällen av klimatförändringar och vilken betydelse har vilostadier? Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning av “Ecology of zooplankton communities: climate, dormancy and benthic-pelagic coupling”, doktorsavhandling i Limnologi vid Ekologiska institutionen, Lunds Universitet, 2003. Djurplankton är sjöars motsvarighet till betande kossor och de mikThis thesis describes how influences, such as top down and bottom up forces, shape zooplankton communities in shallow lakes. I have also extended the traditional food-web theory by investigating the effects of climate on total biomass, taxonomic composition, and temporal properties of zooplankton communities. A field experiment showed that the total biomass of both phytoplankton and zooplankton in

Research in theoretical chemistry is aimed at finding computational algorithms that produce as accurate results as possible, for as large molecules as possible, with a minimum of computational effort and to apply these methods to molecular systems of chemical interest. The most accurate theoretical methods, often referred to as ab initio methods, are derived from the fundamental laws of physics an

En genomgång av hur den bibliska gestalten Mirjam presenterats i rabbinsk litteratur och hur den senare använts och tolkats inom modern feministisk judendom.

During B lymphocyte development, the transcriptional activity of the IgH locus is subject to spatial and temporal changes. The 3' enhancer (3'E) has been suggested to play an important role in regulation of immunoglobulin gene expression late in B cell development. We have investigated, using transgenic mice, the role of the 3'E in regulating Ig gene expression. Mice harbouring a rearranged IgH ge

Den här uppsatsen skall undersöka några av företeelserna som har betydelse för ett skapande av en europeisk identitet och ett "gemensamt" Europa. Diskussionen om Europa som gemensam institution handlar oftast om ekonomiska svårigheter, sällan diskuteras t.ex. historiska, normativa, och kulturella mellanmänskliga och mellanstatliga dilemman i större sammanhang. Frågan jag ställer i uppsatsen tar ju
