Boy Stories
Swedish photographer Johan Willner (born 1971) is well known for his enigmatic images that draw on inspirations from music, literature and philosophy. The Boy Stories series is based on personal memories. Slightly faded colors, often in hues of green and red on a lighter background, lend the photographs a dreamlike aesthetic.
Wind Upon the Face of Waters
Wind Upon the Face of Waters deals with the great questions of religion and faith, from a perspective to be brought up in a modern, political and strongly secular society, during the seventies and eighties.It is a personal story that also reflects on the photographic method, Johan Willner combines the black and white photographs with an integrated essay in which the two parts follow each other and work both independently and jointly in the photographic and textual narrative. A combination that contributes to an extension of the experience of the photograph.In 2015 Wind Upon the Face of Waters was awarded Best Portfolio at Landskrona Photo Festival, Sweden (August 2016) and the winner of the Spine International Dummy Award.
Privatization Experiences in the European Union
Experts evaluate the varied outcomes of privatization experiences in Austria, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, and the UK.

The first part of the book provides a trenchant critique of current globalisation, of multinational corporations, the WTO, and intellectual property rights. The rest of the book outlines an alternative globalisation based on inclusion, democratic participation, and equality. The role of the universities in this process is given special attention. The alternative globalisation is still based on the market economy but not necessarily one in which the sole objective of the corporations is to maximise profits. The book is a must-read for all economists, including those who are satisfied with the current...

Leadership and Cooperation in Academia
Leadership and Cooperation in Academia focuses on the place and the role of universities in different societies, including their influence on the socio-economic development of those societies. Across the world academic institutions are being questioned by their stakeholders and pressured to change. Answering these questions requires that academics and professional managers in universities think about their work, its value and organisation. The book highlights the need for space and stimulus to reflect on the responsibilities, roles and expectations that they identify for themselves, and that others place upon them Ð then, they might be better able to understand and to act. Similarly, policy...
