Projektbeskrivning: Economization is a phenomenon that today plays a predominant role in the management of our everyday lives. From the day we are born to the moment we die, we are continuously organized as actors who, with the help of statistics, measures and financial calculation, are supposed to rationally choose and efficiently produce the various “goods” of education, health, and care. It is therefore no wonder why economization is considered to be one of the most influential reforms over the last couple of decades (Kisner and Vigoda-Gadot, 2017) as it seems to constantly expand into newer areas (see Lapsley and Miller, 2019) reshaping our possibilities to think, act and evaluate the welfare of ourselves as well as others.

Projektbeskrivning: Due to the lifting of national borders, organizations are increasingly composed by international migrant workers. Society and organizations agree that there is a need to attract migrant workers; nonetheless, tensions arise between organizational aspirations for openness and the circumstances that migrant workers face. Organizational inclusion frameworks are intended to resolve these tensions.

Nurit Nobel
Projektbeskrivning: Dr. Nobel’s dissertation examines the gap between people’s good intentions—regarding their health, finance or consumption choices—and lack of meaningful action to progress towards their goals. The dissertation suggests that this gap exacerbates global challenges such as the savings crisis and climate change, and proposes to tackle it with a combination of behavioral interventions and technology.

Projektbeskrivning: My research explores broadly the role of firms in sustainability transitions. More specifically, as digital innovation becomes ubiquitous across industry sectors and is heralded as an opportunity to instill new values such as sustainability into practices, it looks at the social practices and processes of firms around how digital technologies become perceived as valuable. This brings forward both the technical and social aspects of digital innovation development, i.e., what qualities and affordances are considered, how they are measured (or not) and who is involved in these decisions.

Projektbeskrivning: I min avhandling studerades assimileringen av migranter från landsbygden i Sveriges städer ca år 1900. Följande studier bygger vidare på avhandlingens metod, teori och forskningsläge men kontexten som studeras är efterkrigstidens finländska svensk- och finskspråkiga invandrares assimilering. 1 Assimilationens geografi Kan invandrares kulturella assimilering kopplas till platsen där de bor?

Projektbeskrivning: The broader topic of the proposed project is technological change and income inequality. In my dissertation, I focused on how technological change can influence occupational structure and skills. In my proposed project, I want to build upon that work by exploring the connection to income and regional inequality.

Projektbeskrivning: I maj 1927 sammankallade Nationernas Förbund den Världsekonomiska konferensen i Genève, där delegater från medlemsländer, den internationella affärsvärlden och fackföreningsrörelsen deltog. Konferensen fokuserade på ”rationaliseringsfrågan”, ett centralt ekonomiskt tema för europeiska regeringar och industriella eliter under mellankrigstiden. Rationalisering definierades av konferensen som ”de teknik- och organisationsmetoder som är utformade för att minimera slöseri av antingen arbetskraft eller material” och inkluderade bland annat ”den vetenskapliga organisationen av arbetet, standardisering av både material och produkter, förenkling av processer och förbättringar av transportsystem och marknadsföring.” Konferensen enades om att rationalisering var ett centralt mål för global ekonomisk utveckling och att det uppnåddes bäst genom internationellt samarbete.

Projektbeskrivning: Competitive economies rely on innovation capacity, productivity growth, and high employment rates. Labor market institutions are essential for all these outcomes, especially in export-dependent countries exposed to international competition such as Sweden and many other European nations. The Swedish labor market model is characterized by a particular setup of political-economic institutions and by deeply rooted ideas that are shared among the three main stakeholders: unions, employer associations and the state.

Projektbeskrivning: While global warming remains this century’s major collective challenge, financing is an Achilles heel of Europe’s green transition. Amid scarce fiscal resources and public sector austerity, policymakers have tried to finance the green transition through financial derisking (FD), i.e. the absorption of various types of business risks by the public sector.

Projektbeskrivning: Consumers often interpret products based on their brands. However, sometimes they assess a product based on their perception of the entire industry. For example, the oil and gas industry is one of the most disliked in the US (Sauter & Froelich, 2012), while microfinancing is perceived more positively (Bajde et al., 2022).

Projektbeskrivning: 1. Project description The transport sector significantly contributes to greenhouse gas emissions in Sweden, accounting for 25% of domestic and 16.4% of international emissions in 2022, with 92.4% of domestic emissions coming from road transport (SCB statistical database). Although the number of electric vehicles is growing, adoption remains limited especially for commercial and off-road vehicles (Transport Analysis database), necessitating an accelerated transition to meet Sweden’s zero-emission target by 2045.

Projektbeskrivning: The research plan for the coming years focuses on deepening the understanding of collaborative initiatives among various market actors (commercial, public, and non-governmental organizations) in relation to sustainability efforts. Theoretically, the research contributes to the field of service ecosystems as setting for value co-creation and institutional work. As a starting point, the research will be based on the vast amount data collected during my PhD studies as this material could not be fully utilized within the frame of the thesis.

Christoffer Andersson
Projektbeskrivning: Over the next three years, I aim to develop knowledge about how work is transformed by algorithmic technology. My ambition is to, through academic publishing in organization studies journals as well as with engagement with practitioners, concretely contribute to the responsible and purposeful use of algorithmic technology in both the public and private sectors. Algorithmic technologies, that is, digital technology based on algorithms used to augment and automate organizational practices, are today central concerns for both organizational researchers as well as employees, managers, and decision-makers in both the public and private sectors.

Projektbeskrivning: Background & purpose Rapidly growing scale-up firms have recently received much policy and scholarly attention for generating quality employment and potentially revitalizing economies (Duruflé et al., 2017). Scaling is associated with growth, expansion, and prosperity for stakeholders (Giustiziero et al., 2023). However, recent evidence reveals alarming concerns about its impact on employees.

Projektbeskrivning: This project is in the area of financial analysis and financial reporting. My doctoral dissertation investigates the association between accounting-based equity values and stock prices, and tests whether predictions of corrections of deviations between the two can be used to improve value-investing strategies. In my planned projects, I will study the impact of investors’ clienteles on the divergence of stock prices and fundamental values, the usefulness of intangibles-related disclosures for the prediction of firm performance, and the economics and incentives of firms pursuing intentional business misconduct.

Projektbeskrivning: Strategic Ideation in Times of Change: Empowering Entrepreneurs to Leverage Disruptive Environmental Changes Swedish society faces several challenges, including increasing violent crime, a decline in social solidarity, and suboptimal production of fossil-free energy. While disruptive changes in the external environment are often viewed as problems to be resolved, they also create opportunities for entrepreneurship by prompting shifts in demand, resources, social norms, and legal frameworks that entrepreneurs can exploit (Davidsson, Recker, & von Briel, 2020). Many startups transform disruptive environmental changes into opportunities, offering innovative solutions that drive economic growth and enhance global competitiveness.

Projektbeskrivning: The project investigates how personal and institutional factors influence the entrepreneurial readiness and behavior of Ukrainian refugees in host countries, with a focus on Sweden. I explore both personal characteristics that drive Ukrainian refugees’ entrepreneurial readiness and behavior, and institutional contexts that may either enable or hinder entrepreneurial activities. Refugee entrepreneurship (RE) entails entrepreneurial activity by forced migrants in their new host country during the period they receive refugee status.
