Nordic businesses on climate transition, competitiveness and growth
In order to investigate how climate efforts and competitiveness are connected in the Nordic region, CEO's and top management of some of the leading companies in the five countries have been interviewed. According to the interviews, the Nordic region can contribute to reaching the Paris Agreement. Climate change is top of mind of CEOs, chairs and top-level management in Nordic companies, and contributing to reaching global climate goals is not only altruistic.

The interviewed companies have approximately 540 000 employees. The aggregated revenue of the companies is around 200 billion EUR, corresponding to 17 percent of the GDP of the Nordic region.

Rulership in 1st to 14th century Scandinavia
This book seeks to revitalise the somewhat stagnant scholarly debate on Germanic rulership in the first millennium AD. A series of comprehensive chapters combines literary evidence on Scandinavia’s polities, kings, and other rulers with archaeological, documentary, toponymical, and linguistic evidence. The picture that emerges is one of surprisingly stable rulership institutions, sites, and myths, while control of them was contested between individuals, dynasties, and polities. While in the early centuries, Scandinavia was integrated in Germanic Europe, profound societal and cultural changes in 6th-century Scandinavia and the Christianisation of Continental and English kingdoms set norther...
The Complete History of Plague in Norway, 1348-1654
Historical studies of plague are predominantly related to individual local epidemics, often associated with the Black Death. However, this unique book provides a complete presentation of the entire Second Plague Pandemic in Norway, from the Black Death to the last outbreaks of plague in 1654. It begins with a succinct presentation of the history of plague and its basic clinical and epidemiological features, while also drawing upon new scholarship and research. It confirms the great genetic stability of the plague contagion, and shows that the outbreaks and spread of plague can be studied in interaction with two historical societies of two historical periods, the late medieval society and the early modern society. The changes and differences in epidemiology and dynamics of plague between the two halves of the pandemic are gateways to understanding how plague epidemics are transmitted, disseminated and evolve. The book’s long-term perspective allows it to study plague’s epidemiology and to identify consistent long-term features.

C. A. Gottlunds samlade nedteckningar av finska släktnamn i husförhörslängderna 1819-1827 för Gräsmark, Fryksände, Norra Ny, Östmark och Dalby församlingar
År 1821 besökte den finske studenten Carl Axel Gottlund (1796-1875) de värmländska och norska finnskogarna, bebodda av ättlingar av östfinnar som migrerat till Sverige under 1500- och 1600-talen. Han möttes av en kultur som bibehållit många av sina drag sedan flera hundra år och fängslades av folkets liv. Hans besök och intresse för sina landsmän ledde till ett starkt engagemang för att hjälpa dem genom att föra deras talan gentemot myndigheterna, som inte hade kunskap om denna folkspillra. Som ett led i hans engagemang förde han vid sitt besök ned finnarnas släktnamn i socknarnas husförhörslängder för att dokumentera den finska befolkningen. Dessa nedteckningar gjord...
