The Sustainable Development Report 2022 features the SDG Index and Dashboards, the first and widely used tool to assess country performance on the Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals. In a context of multiple crises, the report analyzes and outlines how the SDGs can be used as a roadmap for more sustainable societies by 2030 and beyond. In particular, this year's edition underlines the importance of international financing mechanisms for addressing lack of fiscal space in poorer countries and promoting sustainable investments into physical and human infrastructure.

Why are people in some countries much more satisfied with their lives than people in others? In fact, the national mean life satisfaction scores of 72 countries in this study range from 3.7 to 8.5 on a 10 point scale. This book examines the importance of social capital for societal well-being with highly interesting results. If people in a rich nation increased their civic engagements from one to three memberships on average, the life satisfaction would rise by the same amount as from an increase in GDP per capita of 24,000 US-$. The effects of networks and trust, as well as GDP, unemployment, inflation and income equality are investigated in this study of World Bank and World Values Survey data including 180,000 respondents from Albania to Zimbabwe. The book discusses approaches to life satisfaction from economics, psychology, political science, biology, social anthropology, and sociology, featuring a thorough exploration of social capital theory. Important policy implications result from the findings: Rich nations have to focus on improving interpersonal ties between citizens – a paradigm shift is necessary. Moreover, economically emerging nations need to include social capital more intensively into their policy strategies. Networks of social support must be strengthened today to improve the quality of life around the globe tomorrow.

Die ökonomische Denkschule des Multirationalen Managements wurde federführend von Schedler und Rüegg-Stürm aus St. Gallen entwickelt, um Wege aufzuzeigen, wie in einem komplexen, dynamischen und heterogenen Umfeld erfolgreich gewirtschaftet werden kann. In Wissenschaft und Praxis breitet sich seither die neue Art zu denken und wirtschaften aus, da sie Lösungen für Herausforderungen bietet, vor denen viele Organisationen heute stehen. Das vorliegende Buch möchte einen Beitrag in der Debatte um das Multirationale Management leisten, indem die sozial- und unternehmensethischen Potenziale der neuen ökonomischen Denkschule aus einer christlich-sozialethischen Perspektive reflektiert werden. Das Buch bietet tiefgreifende Einblicke in die Denkschule, konfrontiert sie mit der Christlichen Sozialethik und stellt Handlungs- und Anwendungsmöglichkeiten der Denkschule für christliche Organisationen vor.

Fattigdom utan gränser är den första bok som tar ett helhetsgrepp om fattigdomsfrågan. Boken är en betraktelse av fattigdomens historia, nutid och framtid där forskarens och journalistens olika perspektiv sammanfogas i ett vidare synfält. Boken bygger på ett temanummer i tidskriften Socionomen som utkom med anledning av EU:s fattigdomsår 2010. Med nytt innehåll behandlar redaktörerna i denna bok fattigdomsfrågan ur ett vidare perspektiv. De allra flesta bidragen är skrivna av nordiska forskare och bygger på aktuella forskningsresultat. Ett mål med boken har varit att vidga blickfånget och överskrida traditionella gränser. Dels mellan olika vetenskapliga discipliner men även mellan vetenskap, journalistik, litteratur, konst och foto. Vi hör också Joakim Palme, professor i statsvetenskap vid Uppsala universitet, i ett avslutande ord. Bokens redaktörer, Hans Swärd och Lena Engelmark, har ett mångårigt samarbete kring sociala frågor bakom sig. Hans Swärd är professor i socialt arbete vid Lunds universitet och redaktör för Socionomens forskningssupplement. Lena Engelmark är journalist, specialiserad på sociala frågor och chefredaktör för Tidskriften Socionomen. Omslagsbild Elisabeth Edén
