Social–ecological transformations towards sustainability in drylands
Drylands face urgent development challenges that are complex and interconnected, requiring holistic systems-based approaches. Here, we present a social–ecological systems framework to guide research, policy, and action across disciplines and sectors towards sustainability transformations in drylands for improved livelihoods and enhanced ecosystem, livestock, and human health. Our conceptual framework integrates three non-exclusive and complementa…
The teacher shortage in Sweden
The background of this study is the accelerating teacher shortage in Sweden. Various stakeholders have expressed their views on the issue, but not those working with pupils. Therefore, this study is focused on seven professional groups who responded via an online survey to statements about causes of and solutions to the teacher shortage. The statements had previously emerged from national and regional dialogues with policy makers. The results sho…
Following in the footsteps of the successful spice farmers
Factors influencing spice income in Tanzania are assessed, exploring household effects of spice diversification, socio‐economic and land characteristics on spice income. Spice diversification, household size, age and gender of the household head, non‐spice crops and off‐farm activities are factors influencing spice income. Results indicate that successful farmers can negotiate higher prices for most spices. This suggests that policymakers should …
Climate change and reindeer herding – A bioeconomic model on the impact of climate change on harvesting profits for Saami reindeer herders in Norway and Sweden
Student conceptions of motivation to study revealed through phenomenography
This study examined a group of primary Swedish students' conceptions of their own motivation for learning. Altogether, 68 students in Grades 3, 6, and 8 participated in the study, in which similarities and differences among students in the three grades were considered. Theoretical and methodological aspects were guided by the phenomenographical approach. For most students, positive and negative influences on motivation emerged in seven distinct c…
Unravelling the pastoralist paradox – preferences for land tenure security and flexibility in Kenya
In this paper, we use a discrete choice experiment conducted among pastoralists in four different semi-arid counties in Kenya characterized by different land tenure regimes to analyze how pastoralists make tradeoffs between tenure security and grazing flexibility – the so-called pastoralist paradox. Results show that there is one group of respondents who are desperate for change and seem to prefer either group or private title deeds to their curr…
The role of Swedish forests in climate change mitigation – A frame analysis of conflicting interests
Saving and borrowing behaviour among agropastoralists in West Pokot County, Kenya
Financial inclusion is an important development impetus, where knowledge of saving and borrowing behaviour provides valuable insights. This study focuses on access to and use of financial services among agropastoralists in rural Kenya, using survey‐based household data from 2007 and 2017. Surveys show that households with savings increased from about 57% to 71%—coinciding with increased access to financial training and growing use of informal gro…
Benefits and costs of two temporary no-take zones
Planning on a wider scale – Swedish forest owners' preferences for landscape policy attributes
Determinants of forest owners attitudes towards wood ash recycling in Sweden - Can the nutrient cycle be closed
Policies for forest landscape management – A conceptual approach with an empirical application for Swedish conditions
Ash recycling — A method to improve forest production or to restore acidified surface waters
Measuring transaction costs incurred by landowners in multiple land-use situations
Gender Differences in Value Systems Expressed by Russian and Swedish University Students
In this study, the authors pinpoint the similarities and differences between students at a Russian university and a Swedish university regarding the students' value systems. What similarities and what differences are there between male Swedish students and male Russian students, and what similarities and what differences are there between the female students in the two countries? The authors' interest was directed towards the gender differences b…
Accounting for cultural heritage — A theoretical and empirical exploration with focus on Swedish reindeer husbandry
Acidification Remediation Alternatives
Estimating cost functions for the four large carnivores in Sweden
Wolves as a Symbol of People's Willingness to Pay for Large Carnivore Conservation
A successful implementation of a mammalian conservation policy requires knowledge of how people value animals. Little is known about how people value large carnivores. The discussion is therefore dominated by people's perception of wolves. In a mail survey (65% response rate) we asked persons residing in areas with populations of wolves, bears, lynx, and wolverines whether they were willing to pay to reach the national conservation goals for thos…
