Vīriešu priekšstati par vardarbību pret sievietēm
2019
Pētījums ir par vīriešu priekšstatiem par vardarbību pret sievietēm. Pētījuma mērķis ir noskaidrot, kādi ir vīriešu priekšstati par vardarbību pret sievietēm. Pētnieciskie jautājumi ir par to, kas veido vīriešu priekšstatus par vardarbību pret sievietēm, kā vīrieši vērtē vardarbības izplatību pret sievietēm un kas pēc vīriešu domām ir vardarbība pret sievietēm. Pētījums tiek balstīts uz divu teorētisko pieeju bāzes: sociālās iemācīšanās teoriju un diferencētās asociācijas teoriju. Pētījuma metode ir daļēji strukturētās intervijas un vinjetes metode. Pētījuma rezultāti atklāj, ka vīrieši priekšstatus par vardarbību pret sievietēm gūst no ģimenes, vides, kurā uzaug un vēlāk no izglītības līme…
INTER-ORGANIZATIONAL NETWORKS FOR INNOVATIONS AND SUSTAINABILITY
2021
The present Thesis is structured as a collection of three essays linked by one core idea: contributing to research knowledge on inter-organizational network dynamics in the context of innovation and the promotion of sustainability. In this Thesis, the author takes a systemic perspective and analyses the interactions between diverse groups of stakeholders, aiming to identify and interpret the logic underlying the formation of inter-organizational partnerships to promote innovation and sustainability. The dynamics of inter-organizational networks are influenced by several internal and external factors, such as strategic cooperation with stakeholders, structural changes (such as an R&I policy …
DON’T GET CAUGHT ON THE WRONG FOOT: A RESOURCE-BASED PERSPECTIVE ON IMITATION THREATS IN INNOVATION PARTNERSHIPS
2017
Innovation partnerships can be a double-edged sword. While they are important vehicles for learning and value creation, such partnerships also increase a firm’s vulnerability to unintended knowledge leakage and imitation by others. In this study, we go beyond previous research by studying the imitation threats induced by innovation partnership portfolios rather than individual alliances. Drawing on the resource-based view, we develop and test a model that links salient structural attributes of partnership portfolios and distinct forms of imitation. Results from our analysis of 803 German manufacturing firms support our prediction that a firm’s probability of being imitated increases with t…
Value Creation and Power Asymmetries in Digital Ecosystems : A Study of a Cloud Gaming Provider
2020
Digital platforms connecting users and service providers have a central role in determining the value creation structure of ecosystems. Platform developers try to achieve a dominant position for the platform with a strong ecosystem around it. The size and attractiveness of the services can attract new users, and growing user volume can bring new co-operative service providers to the service partner network. An interesting question is how the presence of power and potential power asymmetry affect the value creation capability and the structure of a network around a platform? This chapter describes an example of value creation and the influence of power asymmetry in a digital ecosystem built …

Order allocation in a multiple suppliers-manufacturers environment within a dynamic cluster
2015
This study faces the problem of how to evaluate order allocation strategies in a multiple suppliers-manufacturers environment within a dynamic industry cluster that is an environment in which suppliers adopt a policy based on their performance to select the clusters in which to operate. Therefore, the allocation strategy performed by the manufacturers is crucial to keep a long-term supply chain partnership with a specific industry cluster. We use simulation to evaluate order allocation strategies under different market conditions. We show how an allocation strategy that takes into account the whole supply chain’s perspective leads to a sustainable development of the clusters of suppliers.
The Nordic Paradox. Professionals’ Discussions about Gender Equality and Intimate Partner Violence against Women in Sweden
2021
Intimate partner violence against women (IPVAW) is a global public health issue often assumed to be associated with gender inequality. The so-called Nordic Paradox, the apparently contradictory co-existence of high levels of IPVAW and of gender equality in Nordic countries, has not been adequately explained. This study explores discussions about how this apparent paradox can be understood among 30 IPVAW professionals working in southern Sweden, through a thematic analysis of focus groups and individual and paired interviews. The analysis highlights complexities of gender (in)equality and its links with IPVAW in Sweden, of relevance for the addressing and prevention of IPVAW.
Building Teacher Identity in a New Partnership Project, - Multiple Perspectives
2014
This paper explores the process of identity building among novice student teachers enrolled in a newly established partnership project embedded in a four-year Norwegian teacher education program. The empirical evidence in the study is drawn from a case study where interviews were the main method of gathering data. The analysis of narratives from the interviews is premised on multiple perspectives. The findings are presented as a reconstructed story with a plot in which the novice student teachers are the chief protagonists. The study illuminates both catalysts and inhibitors of student teachers´ identity building in the caring contexts of teaching practice and threatening contexts of theory…

Inteligencia Territorial y Transición Socio-Ecológica
2011
Este artículo defiende que la definición de la inteligencia territorial que se propone desde la European Network of Territorial Intelligence (ENTI) satisface desde su origen los desafíos actuales del desarrollo. El primer apartado expone estos desafíos en el marco de la transición socio-ecológica. El segundo apartado argumenta que la inteligencia territorial constituye una respuesta científica a estos desafíos, estableciendo las diferencias con otros conceptos como “inteligencia económica” o “desarrollo comunitario”. Finamente, en la tercera parte, se presentan los ejes y las herramientas operativas de inteligencia territorial que propone ENTI, se discuten los progresos realizados y se resu…
