Child poverty in a Scandinavian welfare context - from children's point of view
2011
Published version of an article published in the journal: Child Indicators Research. Also available from the publisher at: http;//dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12187-010-9092-0 The focus for this article is child poverty in a Nordic welfare state context.

2005
Published version of an article published in Scandinavian Journal of Information Systems, 17 (2), 133-168. Also available from the publisher at: http://aisel.aisnet.org/sjis/vol17/iss2/5.

In political science, democracy is not taken as given in this way, but can be represented by different models which characterize different relationships between politicians and the citizens they represent. This paper uses quantitative and qualitative content analysis to analyze the communicat…

Resumen: La neumonía adquirida en la comunidad (NAC) en la edad pediátrica ha sufrido, en la última década, una serie de cambios epidemiológicos, clínicos, etiológicos y de resistencias a antibióticos, que obligan a replantear su abordaje terapéutico.
