Every day we encounter expressions of different religious traditions in our surroundings, in the news, in literature, in art and in popular culture. It is clear that religion can be an expression of both conflict, reconciliation and a sense fellowship. Thus it is important, relevant and interesting to engage in the field of religious studies.
Some of the questions students process and deepen their understanding of are: What is religion?
The conflicts fall into three categories – easy, difficult and impossible. A collaboration between working life science and sociology has led to a book for students.
Jonas Axelsson, Senior Lecturer in working life science at Karlstad Business School, and Markus Arvidson, Senior Lecturer in sociology at Karlstad University, have a long-term interest in matters of loyalty. They have known each other for more than ten years and had many discussions on the topic.

Research data can be shared or disseminated in different ways. This often happens informally between colleagues or research partners. If research data is available via data repositories, others can find, reuse and cite the data.If data contains personal information, and particularly sensitive data, this may affect possibilities to make it accessible.Remember that documentation should be as extensive as possible to facilitate assessment and reuse of data. File formats must also be considered.

Den 22 oktober hölls en workshop på Karlstads universitet och du hittar presentationerna här nedan.
Sammanfattningsvis är slutsatsen från workshopen att solcellsinstallationer principiellt är en säker teknik och statistik visar att antalet allvarliga olyckor kopplade till solceller är mycket få.
Over the last decade, perovskites have received much attention in solar cell research all over the world. Perovskite solar cells combine the benefits of the high performance of conventional silicon solar cells and the low cost of polymer-based solar cells.
