Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2021-529/ Selv om levevilkårene for LGBTI-personer i Norden har ændret sig i løbet af de sidste halvfjerds år, viser store folkesundhedsundersøgelser, at de har et ringere fysisk og psykisk helbred end resten af befolkningen. Selv blandt den unge generation af LGBTI-personer påvirkes deres liv af at have en seksualitet eller kønsidentitet, der falder uden for heteronormativiteten. Nordisk Ministerråd har derfor iværksat et projekt med henblik på at belyse unge LGBTI-personers velvære. Nordisk information for kundskab om køn, NIKK, har gennemført projektet, som resulterede i rapporten "Sundhed, velvære og levevilkår blandt unge LGBTI-personer i Norden". Dette er et resumé af rapporten.
"Dagligdag under fascismen. Levevilkår i Mussolinis Italien og Hitlers Tyskland" handler om fascismebegrebet og perioden 1922-1945 i Tyskland og Italien, hvor fascismen var den politiske styreform. Fascismen greb ind i alle dele af det offentlige liv med meget aktive politikker for undervisning og dannelse, kunst og kultur, raceopfattelse og arbejdsmarkedet. Henrik Pers beskriver i denne bog, der udkom første gang i 1979, hvordan første verdenskrig skabte grobund for fascismens gennembrud i de to lande, samt hvordan hverdagen og livsvilkårene så ud for almindelige borgere. Henrik Pers (f. 1949) er dansk historiker, forfatter og oversætter. Han har været tilknyttet Københavns Universitet som ekstern lektor, Undervisningsministeriet som specialkonsulent og Censorsekretariatet for erhvervskommunikation, sprog og medier som sekretariatsleder. Pers har udgivet en række faglitterære bøger om blandt andet velfærdsstatens gennembrud i Danmark og om italiensk politik og historie. Som oversætter står han bag den tidligere FN-generalsekretær Kofi Annans erindringer "I krig og fred" fra 2013.
The SLiCA anthology probes into the theoretical and methodological background of the SLiCA project, the research design, the ethical principles applied and introduces examples of the wealth of information available on the livelihoods and living conditions of the Inuit, Saami and the indigenous peoples of Chukotka and the Kola Peninsula, measured with quality of life criteria they themselves chose. Furthermore the anthology provides samples of analyses – including comparative and contextual studies – that can be accomplished using SLiCA data. Examples of living conditions and topics anlysed are: "suicidal thoughts"; impacts of oil development on living conditions and quality of life; economic stratification; objective and subjective living conditions; education; gender based differences in productive activities; impacts of societal development on men’s and women’s perceptions of their contributions to their households; factors affecting migration, identity, ethnicity, and herding rights.

Lard, Lice and Longevity reconstructs economic policies implemented in Denmark and the Netherlands during the German occupation. It clearly shows that the experiences of both these countries during World War I, and during the 1930s equipped them to introduce extensive and intrusive economic controls to ward off a subsistence crisis. In spite of the strong similarities between the two countries in terms of policies and economic order, there remains a glaring difference between the two. Throughout the occupation years, the Netherlands suffered a markedly higher level of child mortality than before or after the war, caused by an upsurge of infectious diseases. Child health in Denmark, on the other hand, declined during the occupation years, and infectious diseases rose only marginally there. In spite of similar policies, hence, the outcome in terms of the biological standard of living was dissimilar. By closely investigating the impact of various policies on everyday life, and the amounts of goods available to different groups of consumers, this study identifies the causes of this remarkable divergence.
