Previous research has shown that fracture incidence has not been stable andsome studies suggest that this has also continued during recent decades.Aims: The aim of this thesis was therefore to describe fracture epidemiology and
This study investigates patterns of seasonal variation in hours worked by women employed in home-based industrial production in Sweden in the early 20th century. Previous studies often describe workers in this type of production as the most flexible segment of industrial workers, and highly dependent on seasonal fluctuations in supply and demand. However, few have studied this empirically. This st
The transnational and transmedial dimensions of media and communication throughout history have not always been adequately recognised. In this research report we propose the concept of entanglement as a means of better understanding the dynamic interconnectedness of media across semiotic, technological, institutional and political boundaries in history. Entanglement is a concept that can be employ
Much of our built environment is constructed to accommodate ‘normate’ (Garland-Thomson 1996; Hamraie 2017) bodies.

Notably, and particularly troublesome, there are indications that some mental health issues, such as non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and disordered eating (DE) behaviors, have increased during the last decades, these reports, h
The purpose of the study is to see if International Accounting Standards for Small and Medium sized entities are suitable for entities in Macedonia, with the emphasis on accounting quality. This thesis has an inductive approach. A qualitative method was selected as a strategy and semi-structured interviews were conducted in order to gather relevant information from the respondent.
