The Psychology of Starting School
The Psychology of Starting School offers a highly accessible, practical guide to cutting-edge research from developmental science to guide parents and professionals through this exciting but sometimes tricky period. Written by expert developmental psychologists, it explores how social and emotional competence emerges within a network of supportive relationships and explains how the transition to school compares with other key transitions for children, for example, becoming a sibling. Addressing the all-important topic of children’s early friendships, it explains how children’s mindreading skills and ability to regulate their feelings and behaviour contribute to a successful school transi...
Trade Unions on YouTube
This open access book investigates how trade unions representing different social classes use YouTube videos for renewal purposes. Information and communication technology has undoubtedly offered new opportunities for social movements, but while research suggests that these new means of communication can be used for trade union revitalization, few studies have examined what unions actually do on social media. By analysing more than 4500 videos that have been uploaded by Swedish trade unions, Jansson and Uba explore how unions use YouTube to address issues such as recruiting new members, improving internal democracy, promoting political campaigns and constructing (new) self-images. The results demonstrate that trade unions representing a range of social classes use different revitalization strategies via YouTube. This research will be of use to students and scholars researching European politics and political participation, trade unionism and labour movements in the digital age.

The Undiscovered Country
In Maggie Stiefvater's SHIVER, Grace and Sam found each other. In LINGER, they fought to be together. Now, in FOREVER, the stakes are even higher than before. Wolves are being hunted. Lives are being threatened. And love is harder and harder to hold on to as death closes in.
In the Spirit of 1992
This book, first published in 1992, provides vital information on the changes in Western European information services resulting from the new European Community. Through an elaboration of the information infrastructure supporting political, economic, social, and bibliographic interconnections among Western European nations, readers will gain a detailed understanding of this multifaceted landscape. It contains informative chapters on topics such as information policy and library status in the European Community, standardization and other cooperative strategies among libraries in Europe, bibliographic access in the United Kingdom, access to information stores in Nordic countries, access to selected European online databases, and implications of European libraries’ cooperative developments for American libraries. This revelatory book features the thinking of distinguished experts on key initiatives in the European information community.
The Battle Over Working-Class Voters
This book examines how social democratic parties have responded to populist radical right parties in the battle for support from working-class voters. It focuses on the paradigmatic examples of social democratic parties in the Nordic countries. Historically these have been the strongest social democratic parties, but they have declined in recent years partly due to the competition from populist radical right parties. In addition, since populist radical right parties tend to support liberal and conservative parties in parliament or in governmental negotiations, social democratic parties’ ability to impact broader policy areas has declined as well. The book provides a detailed empirical account of how social democratic parties – and more broadly, labour movement organisations, including unions – have responded to these challenges across Denmark, Sweden, Finland, and Norway. This volume will be of interest to scholars of party politics, comparative politics, Nordic politics, and the populist radical right.

Sommaren på Nornö
En sommar, två familjer, ett öde skrivet i runorna. Artonåriga Zoë Holmgren har levt hela sitt liv på den mytomspunna ön Nornö i Stockholms skärgård. Tillsammans med sin struliga mamma Linn och sin mormor Agnes driver Zoë öns handelsbod som Holmgrens gjort i generationer. Med en haitisk-amerikansk pappa, som hon aldrig träffat, har Zoë alltid stått ut från mängden. Trots Linns motstånd börjar Zoë i smyg göra efterforskningar. Hennes högsta önskan är att hitta honom. Vanligtvis händer inte mycket på Nornö, men när Camilla Easton, utlandssvensk, före detta modell och numera Manhattanbo, anländer till sin nybyggda sommarbostad, ställs Zoës och Linns tillvaro på ända. De dras direkt till familjen Eastons sofistikerade och till synes perfekta liv. Men snart inser de att de inte är ensamma om att ha saker att dölja. Sommaren på Nornö handlar om ursprung, identitet och om komplicerade mor-dotter-relationer. Och om hur skuld kan påverka våra liv mer än vi tror.
