Stjärnor utan svindel
Stjärnor utan svindel firar 25 år! En roman som lästes och älskades av en hel generation – och som är ett tidsdokument av ett nittiotal som vi aldrig har slutat att fascineras av. Sophie har klarat trettioårskrisen med glans och lever det perfekta livet med man och hundar i en ståtlig Stocksundsvilla. Hon är framgångsrik författare, tjänar hyfsat med pengar och är en lika självklar gäst på baler i Riddarhuset som på festfixarnas kändispartyn. Allt tycks gå som på räls. Men så kommer plötsligt Kaja in i hennes liv. Kaja är lesbisk radikalfeminist och vänsteraktivist och med ens råder helt andra förutsättningar för hur Sophie ska leva sitt liv. Ska hon våga ta steget? Ska hon våga trotsa alla normer för kärlekens skull? Stjärnor utan svindel är en roman om vad det innebär att ifrågasätta sig själv och sitt invanda liv. Det är en av de relationsromaner som verkligen formade sin tid genom att så öppet prata om kärlek och svek, om kvinnor och kvinnor, om kvinnor och män. ”En modern klassiker.” Göteborgs-Posten
Revaluing Coastal Fisheries
This book illustrates and explains the consequences of neoliberal reform on rural economies. Based on an ethnographic case study of coastal fisheries in Iceland, it poses the following questions: How are rural fishers navigating liberal capitalism? And how are new markets, property-rights and digital technologies transforming rural economies? By drawing on an extensive body of literature on economic sociology and science and technology studies, the book offers a novel understanding of the role of market-based reform for rural development.
International Perspectives on Competence in the Workplace
In the future a more competent workforce will be required as workers will have to acquire the competence to predict and deal with novel situations at work. This book aims to provide the reader with insightful perspectives about competence in different situations and contexts. It presents a more enlightened view of human competence by opening up an international dialogue about the meaning and interpretation of competence in the workplace, and the impact of learning environments on workplace policy and practice. Five major premises which provide a basis for how we interpret, experience, and teach competence in the workplace are put forward: notions of worker competence, and the persuasiveness of informal workplace training; developing competence as an individual, and the inherent relationship between the worker and work, and the lifeworld; learning which develops higher level competences based on a more holistic conception of competence; characteristics of learning environments as integral components of learning at work; learning environments construed as theoretical and methodological problems in terms of their impact on the acquisition of competence.
