  1. 36. The challenges of continuity in family businesses in Rwanda

    Författare :Pierre Sindambiwe; Mattias Nordqvist; Francesco Chirico; Celestin Musekura; Alexandra Dawson; Jönköping University; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Focusing on a developing country, this study investigates how an owning family builds its business’ continuity. While scholars of family businesses tend to depict the continuity of a family firm in terms of family succession, preserving the family legacy, or the firm’s longevity, in the social context of a developing country that is dominated by instability and hostility, family firms are subject to day-by-day survival risks.

  5. 39. Theoretical description of Ti and Ti alloys from first principles

    Författare :Natalia Skripnyak; Igor Abrikosov; Iryna Yakimenko; Sergey Simak; Zi-Kui Liu; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; T; Ti alloys; DFT; molecular dynamics; thermodynamic properties; elastic properties;

    Sammanfattning : Modern world is known for many advanced technologies and solutions to complex problems. Technical progress runs at high speed. In order to most effectively use materials, given to us by Nature, it is important to know their properties. To do laboratory experiments is often too expensive and time consuming. LÄS MER

  7. 40. Samtal med den värdefulla naturen : Ett studium av miljöetiken hos Knud Lõgstrup, Holmes Rolston III och Hans Jonas
