Gudmund Jöran Adlerbeth vann Gustaf lll:s gunst genom sin litterära talang, gjorde också karriär som ämbetsman och riksantikvarie. Under riksdagen 1789 höll han på riddarhuset ett uppmärksammat tal starkt kritisk till kunglig maktutvidgning men förhållandet till monarken förändrades inte mycket. Gustaf lll sa sig hysa personlig affektion för honom och har väl haft ett behov av en samtalspartner som gav intellektuell stimulans. Adlerbeth har av Lorens Pasch d.y porträtterats i sin skepnad av ung tjusande hovman i sidendräkt och med halskrås. Under italienska resan tjänstgjorde han som kungens sekreterare. Den dagbok han förde under den nio månader långa färden är vår viktigaste källa för kungens Italienresa.

Anställningsskydd är en kommentar till den svenska lagstiftningen på anställningsskyddets område. Här finns en genomgång av lagförarbeten och av den rättspraxis som har vuxit fram i Arbetsdomstolen under mer än femtio år.

Den europeiska arbetsrätten ägnas stor uppmärksamhet. Kommentaren innehåller en redovisning av de europeiska domstolarnas avgöranden och deras betydelse för anställningsskyddet.

I kommentaren behandlas också förhållandet mellan anställningsskyddslagen och andra lagar som har betydelse på detta område, t.ex. diskrimineringslagen, socialförsäkringsbalken och de särskilda reglerna om offentlig anställning. Omfattande sakregister och rättsfallsregister hjälper läsaren att tillgodogöra sig innehållet.

Denna tolfte upplaga bygger på rättsutvecklingen fram till våren 2025 och omfattar de lagändringar som har genomförts i början av 2020-talet.

Biografi Adlerbeth uppfostrades på familjens gods Ramsjöholm vid Huskvarnaån med sin far, assessor Adlerbeth, som lärare. Adlerbeth blev 1768 student i Uppsala. År 1771 ingick han i en kunglig krigsexpedition, där han 1773 befordrades till kopist och kanslist. I Uppsala blev han invald i sällskapet Apollini sacra och i Stockholm ledamot av sällskapets modersamfund Utile Dulci. År 1773 blev han genom författaren Gustaf Fredrik Gyllenborg presenterad för Gustav III. Samma år blev Adlerbeth ledamot av Musikaliska akademien, vars sekreterare han var en period. Som en följd av sin fria översättning av Racines Iphigénie började han arbeta konstnärligt vid hovet. 1774 följde Adlerbeth kungen på resor inom landet och blev protokollssekreterare. Han utnämndes 1778 till riksantikvarie (vilket han var till 1793) och till kungens handsekreterare. 1783 följde han kungen på en resa till Italien. 1786 blev han ledamot av Svenska akademien vid dess stiftande. Samma år blev han även ledamot av Vitterhetsakademien, i vilken han blev sekreterare. Han blev kansliråd 1787 och året därpå, 1788, ledamot av Vetenskapsakademien. 1793 tog han avsked från sekreterarplatsen i Vitterhetsakademien. Vid kanslikollegiets upplösning 1801 fick han plats i det så kallade kanslersgillet. Han blev också ledamot av Vetenskapssocieteten i Uppsala och 1812 hedersledamot av Lantbruksakademien. Han var medlem i 1811-1814 års psalmbokskommitté. Adlerbeth var personlig vän till Gustaf Fredrik Gyllenborg, Carl Gustaf af Leopold, Johan Gabriel Oxenstierna och Nils von Rosenstein. Adlerbeth bidrog starkt till antagandet av 1809 års författning. Han var då en av de mest inflytelserika ledamöterna i konstitutionsutskottet och i tryckfrihetskommittén, som utarbetade de nya grundlagarna. Med hjälp av sitt anseende hos adeln drev han igenom att den nya regeringsformen antogs snabbt utan strider. Samma år utnämndes han till statsråd och friherre. 1815 fick han på begäran avsked från statsrådsämbetet. Han deltog i 1817 års riksdag som ordförande i expeditionsutskottet. Året därpå dog han den 7 oktober 1818 på Ramsjöholm. Han ligger begravd på Uppsala gamla kyrkogård.

Jailbird Singers var ett band som bildades av tre talangfulla interner på Långholmens fängelse under tidigt 1960-tal. Väl ute i frihet rönte de stora framgångar med låten Där björkarna susa och albumet Tjyvballader och Barnatro. Ett tragiskt dödsfall satte stopp för den alltför korta karriären, och Jailbird Singers försvann, tillsammans med den brytningstid i Sverige som bandet i mångt och mycket var en återspegling av. I den här boken har jag tecknat Jailbird Singers historia, kopplad till några av de strömningar - politiska, kulturella, sociala -som i hög grad påverkade människor, i Sverige och omvärlden, under “det andra 60-talet”.

This book is a joint effort of like-minded researchers to define the concept of process within a psychological setting. Although minor differences exist as regards choice of background theory, their common focus is on personality in a broad psychodynamic context. Their definition of personality rests on a series of test instruments that have been validated during decades of thorough and vigorous empirical work. These were originally designed to open up micro-processes underlying the adaptation to or construction of reality, and have subsequently proven diagnostically efficient. Coming from both sides of the Atlantic, the contributors have their background in psychological as well as medical institutions. The contributions in the book are examples of a vital source sustaining our efforts to get a more profound understanding of the vicissitudes of the human mind.

Technical change, defined as the manufacture and modification of tools, is generally thought to have played an important role in the evolution of intelligent life on earth, comparable to that of language. In this volume, first published in 1983, Jon Elster approaches the study of technical change from an epistemological perspective. He first sets out the main methods of scientific explanation and then applies those methods to some of the central theories of technical change. In particular, Elster considers neoclassical, evolutionary, and Marxist theories, whilst also devoting a chapter to Joseph Schumpeter's influential theory.

This title presents the construct of perceptgenesis, a psychodynamic theory pioneered by the author that explains reality as constructed from within by means of hidden but retraceable microprocesses under constraints imposed by outside stimuli. Supported by a process-oriented theoretical framework, the approach is clinically relevant to such fields as personnel selection, creativity, development, psychosomatics, and psychopathology.

This book gives an imaginative introduction to statistics and reorients the course toward an understanding of statistical thinking and its meaning and utility for students in their daily life and careers. It is well-known that most students enrolled in statistcs courses are under duress, and for these students lengthy discussions of numerous methods, formulas, and complex theories are of little value and no meaning. In Statistics: The Conceptual Approach, Gudmund Iversen and Mary Gergen bring their years of experience and insight into teaching the subject. Among the many innovations and insights found in this new text are a sustained emphasis on the process of statistical analysis and what statistics can and cannot do as well as careful exposition of the ideas of developing statistical and graphical literacy. In the spirit of contemporary pedagogy and through the use of technology, this book eliminates the usual barriers caused by statistical formulas and lengthy computations encountered by students without strong quantitative skills. Formulas are grouped at the end of each chapter along with related problems.Statistics: The Conceptual Approach requires only algebra as a prerequisite and is suitable for students in the liberal arts and the behavioral and social sciences.

The book is focused on defense mechanisms as theoretical constructs as well as the possibilities of their empirical registration by different methods, and the application of these constructs in different fields of psychology with special regard to concurrent and predictive validity. It is argued that defense mechanisms are in many ways to be seen as integrative constructs, not necessarily restricted to psychoanalytic theory and that the potential fields of their application have a wide ranging scope, comprising many fields of psychology. Consequently empirical studies are presented from the fields of clinical and personality psychology, psychotherapy research and psychosomatic phenomena and diseases. Methodological questions have a heavy weight in most of these studies. Provides coverage of relevant literature Covers different fields of application Attempts an integration of the contstruct of defense mechanisms into mainstream psychology Provides explanations of the theoretical basis of the construct of defense mechanisms

Resistance and Rebellion: Lessons from Eastern Europe explains how ordinary people become involved in resistance and rebellion against powerful regimes. The book shows how a sequence of casual forces - social norms, focal points, rational calculation - operate to drive individuals into roles of passive resistance and, at a second stage, into participation in community-based rebellion organization. By linking the operation of these mechanisms to observable social structures, the work generates predictions about which types of community and society are most likely to form and sustain resistance and rebellion. The empirical material centres around Lithuanian anti-Soviet resistance in both the 1940s and the 1987-91 period. Using the Lithuanian experience as a baseline, comparisons with several other Eastern European countries demonstrate the breadth and depth of the theory. The book contributes to both the general literature on political violence and protest, as well as the theoretical literature on collective action.

The problem of collective action is that each member of a group wants other members to make necessary sacrifices while he or she 'free rides', reaping the benefits of collective action without doing the work. Inevitably the end result is that no one does the work and the common interest is not realized. This book analyses the social pressure whereby groups solve the problem of collective action. The authors show that the problem of collective action requires a model of group process and cannot be deduced from simple models of individual behaviour. They employ formal mathematical models to emphasize the role of small subgroups of especially motivated individuals who form the 'critical mass' that sets collective action in motion. The book will be read with special interest by sociologists, social psychologists, economists and political scientists. It will also be of concern to those in industrial relations and communications research working on issues in collective action and rational choice.

This 1987 book offers a critique of the liberal theory of the state, focusing on a detailed study of cooperation in the absence of the state and of other kinds of coercion. The discussion includes an analysis of collective action and of the Prisoners' Dilemma supergame. It is a revised and expanded edition of the author's classic work of rational choice theory Anarchy and Cooperation, originally published with John Wiley in 1976. The analysis has been recast and developed here to make it more accessible to non-mathematical readers and to provide a more comprehensive and self-contained treatment of the theory of collective action. The book will be of interest to a range of readers in political and social philosophy and in economics.

The question Jon Elster addresses in this challenging book is what binds societies together and prevents them from disintegrating into chaos and war. He analyses two concepts of social order: stable, predictable patterns of behaviour, and co-operative behaviour. The book examines various aspects of collective action and bargaining from the perspective of rational-choice theory and the theory of social norms. It is a fundamental assumption of the book that social norms provide an important kind of motivation for action that is irreducible to rationality. The book represents a major statement by Elster, which will be of particular interest to political scientists, political philosophers, sociologists, and economists.

The essays in this volume, first published in 1986, examine the philosophical foundations of social choice theory. This field, a modern and sophisticated outgrowth of welfare economics, is best known for a series of impossibility theorems, of which the first and most crucial was proved by Kenneth Arrow in 1950. That has often been taken to show the impossibility of democracy as a procedure for making collective decisions. However, this interpretation is challenged by several of the contributors here. Other central issues discussed in the volume include the possibility of making interpersonal comparisons of utility, the question of whether all preferences are equally to be valued, and the normative individualism underlying the theoretical tradition. Criticisms of social choice theory are advanced and suggestions for alternative approaches are developed.

The quest for freedom from hunger and repression has triggered in recent years a dramatic, worldwide reform of political and economic systems. Never have so many people enjoyed, or at least experimented with democratic institutions. However, many strategies for economic development in Eastern Europe and Latin America have failed with the result that entire economic systems on both continents are being transformed. This major book analyzes recent transitions to democracy and market-oriented economic reforms in Eastern Europe and Latin America. Drawing in a quite distinctive way on models derived from political philosophy, economics, and game theory, Professor Przeworski also considers specific data on individual countries. Among the questions raised by the book are: What should we expect from these experiments in democracy and market economy? What new economic systems will emerge? Will these transitions result in new democracies or old dictatorships?

Statisticians now generally acknowledge the theorectical importance of Bayesian inference, if not its practical validity. According to Gudmund R. Iversen, one reason for the lag in applications is that empirical researchers have lacked a grounding in the methodology. His volume provides this introduction and serves as a companion to #4, Tests of Significance.

The authors have improved on their widely used first edition by providing updated examples, adding material on how to do ANOVA using statistical packages for microcomputers, linking the use of ANOVA to regression analysis, and enchancing their discussion on using ANOVA for experimentally gathered data.

Contextual analysis, the study of the role of the group context on actions and attitudes of individuals, is a useful technique in the study of education, neighborhoods, census tracts, election districts, and the family. However, the effective use of contextual analysis has involved overcoming a number of issues, such as group boundaries, the mobility of the individuals within a group, overlapping groups, missing individual data, and the choice of statistical models. Contextual Analysis offers researchers a guide for selecting the best model to use. Written in a straightforward style, the book explores such topics as contextual analysis with absolute effects, with relative effects, and the choice between regression coefficients as fixed parameters or as random variables.

Aimed at readers who may be more familiar with statistics than calculus and mathematics, this carefully written volume gives an overview of the central ideas in calculus. Author Gudmund R. Iversen shows examples of how calculus is used to translate many real-world phenomena into mathematical functions. Beginning with an explanation of the two major parts of calculus, differentiation and integration, Iversen illustrates how calculus is used in statistics to distinguish between the mean and the median, to derive the least squares formulas for regression coefficients, to find values of parameters from theoretical distributions, and to find a statistical p value when we using one of the continuous test variables like the t variable. Social scientists who either never took a calculus course or who want to "brush up" on their understanding of calculus will find this book a necessity.

Gudmund Schütte (1872-1958) was a renowned Danish historian, anthropologist and philologist. First published in 1933, as the English translation of a 1926 Danish original, this book forms one of two volumes by Schütte on the ethnography of the Gothic, German, Dutch, Anglo-Saxon, Frisian and Scandinavian peoples. The text is notable for its use of a systematic framework, following the principle that 'homogeneous matter should always be presented in homogeneous columns under precisely the same headings and in the same order'. Illustrative figures and textual notes are included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in perspectives on early North European history and ethnography.
