Unfair, ineffective, and inefficient. These are some of the moral objections to increasing fuel prices in Sweden. A new study from Lund University identifies how social movements are resisting green transition policies through moral reasoning and argues that their concerns must be both recognised and responded to, in order to achieve a low-carbon future. – If politicians want different climate pol
With the Research Data Office, the University is working to improve support for researchers in the management of research data.

Bland innovationsforskare finns en utbredd uppfattning att kunskapsintensiva företag frodas bäst i större städer. Men i takt med att nätet byggts ut och människor blivit bättre på att använda det, minskar städernas försprång. Dessutom har landsbygdens trofasta personal som inte hoppar mellan jobb visat sig vara en konkurrensfördel. Det visar samhällsgeografen Hjalti Nielsen i en ny avhandling. Och

Vad finns det för samband mellan åderförfettning och bakterier i tarm och mun? Forskarna bakom en ny stor studie har funnit flera nya kopplingar. På lång sikt kan kunskapen hjälpa personer med typ 2-diabetes, en grupp som är i riskzonen att utveckla åderförfettning. Åderförfettning, även kallat åderförkalkning, innebär att fett och kalk under lång tid har samlats på insidan av blodkärlen. Då blir

I den långvariga konflikten i Israel och Palestina är det de oskyldiga civila som betalar det högsta priset. Oavsett vad den andra sidan gjort ska den internationella humanitära rätten alltid upprätthållas. Det understryker folkrättsforskaren Alberto Rinaldi. Hamas attack mot Israel den 7 oktober var startskottet för det pågående och senaste kriget som krävt tusentals liv. På tre veckor har det dö
