    Sammanfattning : Explaining how properties at the level of individuals translate into properties at the level of collectives is a core objective of sociology. Because the social world is characterized by complex webs of social interdependencies, establishing how micro and macro are related to one another requires a detailed understanding of how individuals are influenced by their social environments and the consequences that such influences have for the dynamics of the social process.

    Sammanfattning : In the last decades there has been a growing interest in studying processes in improvement work. A particular interest has been the improvement process that the organisation undergoes and why events evolve in the way they do. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Previous research concludes that working-class people in general exhibit more negative attitudes towards people with immigrant backgrounds than people in more privileged class positions.

    Sammanfattning : The practice of architectural and urban design being involved in forming the space in our cities and built environments has certain effects on the social life in society that in its turn conditions the performance of the practice. The continuous changes in cities and societies, however, are just partially caused by the practice of architectural and urban design. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Understanding the complexity of social-ecological phenomena like climate change, ocean acidification, and biodiversity loss requires interdisciplinary collaboration. However, scholars that engage in interdisciplinary work face the challenge of grasping other disciplines’ causal reasoning. LÄS MER
