Economic evaluation of digital health interventions to improve quality-adjusted life years in adolescents living with HIV in Ethiopia
Introduction: The rapid expansion of mobile phone access has enabled low-cost SMS interventions to support adherence to antiretroviral therapy (ART). Although text messaging improves adherence and retention in HIV care, its cost-effectiveness for enhancing quality of life remains uncertain, particularly among adolescents in resource-limited settings. This study evaluated whether SMS reminders improve retention in care and quality-adjusted life ye…
Neutralisation of polluted academic credentials within the Swedish police
Cooperation between higher education and the police has been described an often conflict-related “two-worldthinking”. This study draws on interviews with 16 PhD-educated police officers and explores what kinds of academic credentials they experience that the police regard as dangerous, and how the police organisation responds to such danger. By combining the concept of symbolic closure with the theory of purity, danger and pollution, the study ex…
Representations of the Holocaust in Swedish secondary school history textbooks
The article analyzes how the Holocaust is portrayed in Swedish high school history textbooks over seven decades. Based, among other things, on the pedagogical guidelines of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), it evaluates the quality and scope of the textbooks' content. The results show an increased emphasis on the Holocaust and anti-Semitism in recent decades. However, Jewish life before and especially after the genocide is …

Managing Two Worlds. Role-Exit Processes among Swedish Police Officers with PhDs
Given the international trend in police education in recent decades towards a more academic focus, the starting point for this article was the fact that only a few police officers with a PhD stay on in the Swedish police organisation. Thus the objective of the study was to investigate the role exit processes of police officers with a PhD, with special emphasis on organisational opportunities and obstacles in the relationship between higher educat…
Flooding in Sebeya catchment, Rwanda - A review of causes, impacts, and management
Flooding is one of the natural hazards that pose the most serious threat to human societies in Rwanda, particularly in the Sebeya catchment located in the northwestern part of the country. The main aims of this study are to identify the current flooding issues in the Sebeya catchment in Rwanda and to propose recommendations for improved flood risk management (FRM). The methodology employed encompasses extensive reviews and subsequent analysis of …
Quantifying Soil Loss in the Brazilian Savanna Ecosystem
The Brazilian Savanna (Cerrado) is the second‐largest South American biome that corresponds to almost two‐third of the national agricultural production. Extensive agricultural‐driven land‐use changes have significantly altered the landscape, causing increased soil erosion. Furthermore, projections of climate change effects on the Cerrado raise concerns about the potential exacerbation of soil loss and its consequences on ecosystem sustainability.…
Teachers navigating the diversified Swedish school market
This study examines the consequences that a highly diversified school market has on the teacher labour market. By interviewing 43 teachers in two different local school markets, one large and highly segregated and one smaller and less segregated, the teacher ́s views and attitudes towards competing schools, different working conditions and educational ideas have been analysed. The results indicate that teachers in the more segregated school marke…
Teachers' professional dispositions
Previous research has shown that when teachers in segregated school markets change jobs, they transfer to schools with similar pupil composition as the school from which they transferred. One explanation for this immobile mobility is that teachers develop context-related professional principles only suitable for one type of school context. This is conceptualised as a professional disposition. From interviews with secondary schoolteachers, three d…
Crossing a social demarcation line
One consequence of the widened participation in higher education (HE) is that the social demarcation line that once existed at the entrance to HE has moved inside the HE system. This study investigates how students experience social friction when demarcation lines are crossed and how such friction develops over time. This was achieved by repeated interviews with the same 10 HE students during their time at university. The study deploys habitus an…
Teacher careers and professional dispositions in a diversified school market
The marketization of the Swedish school system in the early 1990’s has led to an increased social segregation and organizational and pedagogical diversification, in terms of profiling, of Swedish schools. These differences are growing more visible and important for the teachers’ labour market since the teachers synchronise and incorporate professional dispositions and skills of only local validity and therefore only work in limited sectors of the…
I have neither his voice nor body’
For this study, Swedish upper secondary schoolteacher students were interviewed about their experiences and perceptions of teacher work in light of the traditional gendered division of labor in teaching. While female teaching has been signified by caring work, male teaching has been signified by distant teacher-pupil relations and the use of bodily resources to discipline pupils. In this study, both genders expressed feeling comforted when teache…
