  1. 1. Paradox As the New Normal : essays on framing, managing and sustaining organizational tensions

    Författare :Medhanie Gaim; Nils Wåhlin; Stewart Clegg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Competing demands; organizational tensions; paradox; paradox theory; architectural firm; företagsekonomi; Business Studies;

    Sammanfattning : Metaphorically, the idiom “you cannot have your cake and eat it too” describes fundamental tensions at the heart of today’s organizations. Engaging tensions may seem implausible or even impossible. However, there exists evidence, given the increasingly complex environment, that both are vital to organizational success. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Knowing the Ropes in Open Innovation : Understanding Tensions through a Paradox Lens

    Författare :Ioana Stefan; Lars Bengtsson; Marcel Bogers; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; tensions; open innovation; paradox of disclosure; value co-creation; value capture; openness; appropriability; intellectual property rights; misappropriation; paradox lens; spänningar; öppen innovation; paradox om avslöjande; samskapande av värde; värdefångst; öppenhet; immateriella rättigheter; idé missbruk; paradoxteori lins; Intelligent industri; Intelligent Industry; Industriell ekonomi och organisation;

    Sammanfattning : The fundamental paradox of disclosure suggested by Kenneth Arrow represents a challenge in contemporary open innovation settings. Potential negative outcomes of this paradox – e.g. misappropriation of ideas – are still not fully avertable. LÄS MER

  4. 3. New horizons in string theory : bubble babble in search of darkness

    Författare :Suvendu Giri; Ulf Danielsson; Bert Vercnocke; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; String theory; black holes; dark energy; de Sitter; cosmological constant; M-theory; braneworld; anti de Sitter; Theoretical Physics; Teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : It was discovered nearly two decades ago that we live in an accelerating universe that is dominated by dark energy. Understanding the origin of such an energy has turned out to be a very difficult open question in physics, and calls on the need for a fundamental theory like string theory. LÄS MER

  5. 4. A theory of experienced paradoxical tension in co-opetitive alliances

    Författare :Tatbeeq Raza-Ullah; Maria Bengtsson; Malin Näsholm; Devi Gnyawali; Marianne Lewis; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; co-opetition; paradox; tension; cognitive difficulty; emotional ambivalence; management; balance; capability; performance; företagsekonomi; Business Studies;

    Sammanfattning : Empirical research shows that co-opetition is a double-edged sword such that it can both help and hurt the achievement of desired performance outcomes. Despite the proliferation of co-opetitive alliances (i.e. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies in plausibility theory, with applications to physics

    Författare :Piero Giovanni Luca Porta Mana; Gunnar Björk; Sergei Ya. Kilin; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bayesian probability theory; quantum theory; state assignment; state estimation; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : The discipline usually called `probability theory' can be seen as the theory which describes and sets standard norms to the way we reason about plausibility. From this point of view, this `plausibility theory' is a province of logic, and the following informal proportion subsists: plausibility theory is to the common notion of `plausibility', as deductive logic is to the common notion of `truth'.
