Visiting and living in Västra Götaland. Västra Götaland offers diversity and varying experiences. From salt-splashed Skagerrak in the rocky west, along Lake Vänern to mysterious Lake Vättern in the densely forested east. From the big city pulse of Göteborg to the calmer tempo of the small timbered town of Hjo. From the Bronze age rock carvings at Tanum to graffiti art at Röda Sten. From working life in an international envi- ronment in a city to life at a small dairy in the countryside. In a nutshell, Västra Götaland is where the contrasts that give life colour and zest come together. – 6 – – 7 – VISITING AND LIVING IN VÄstra GÖtaLAND VISITING AND LIVING IN VÄstra GÖtaLAND The Hammarkullen carnival in Göteborg 20% of Sweden’s horses can be found in Västra The Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra – the The best things in life can’t be bought for money attracts 50,000 visitors a year.

Further inland, Västra Götaland shows a different face with open plains that give way to plateaus with rare vegetation, for example flowering Kinnekulle ridge on the eastern shore of lake Vänern, Sweden’s largest lake.

Swedish Dimensional Adjectives. (Svenska dimensionsadjektiv.) Acta Universitatis Stockholmiensis. Stockholm Studies in Scandinavian Philology. New Series. 36. Almqvist & Wiksell International. 377 pp. The purpose of this study is to give a thorough and detailed account and analysis of the semantics of twelve Swedish dimensional adjectives: hög ‘high/tall’, låg ‘low’, bred ‘broad/wide’, smal ‘narrow/thin’, vid ‘broad’, trång ‘narrow’, tjock ‘thick’, tunn ‘thin’, djup ‘deep’, grund ‘narrow’, lång ‘long’ and kort ‘short’. Focus has been placed on their spatial, non-metaphorical sense. The study was written within the framework of cognitive linguistics, where lexical definitions may be given in terms of prototypical and peripheral uses. Four sources of data have been considered: a corpus, consisting of contemporary fiction, an elicitation test, designed for the purpose, dictionary articles on the pertinent adjectives, and the author’s own linguistic intuition as a native speaker. The methodology has involved categorisation of combinations of adjective and noun, based upon three major themes: orientation, function, and shape. In order to determine prototypical uses, precedence has been given to the outcome of the elicitation test over the corpus search. For both sources, frequency has played an important part. The ranking of senses as stated in the dictionary articles has also been considered.

Since then Göteborg has been struggling to transform itself into a successful post-industrial city. The political leadership has worked diligently at promoting Göteborg as a knowledge and event city with the goal of creating growth in the region. After the shipyard crisis an area on the waterfront called Lindholmen was planned for housing, green areas and the preservation of an historically valuable building. In 1997, however, this all changed when the pri- vate company Ericsson started to look for a new office location and showed interest in the area. The company demanded the establishment of an IT-cluster consisting of 10 000 workplaces on the pier. This started a process which re- sulted in Lindholmen Science Park, a growth environment for knowledge in- tensive, high-tech companies.

The Development and Quality of Financial Accounting: - Unnecessary Disruptions and Established Routines BJÖRN BRORSTRÖM PIERRE DONATELLA The Development and Quality of Financial Accounting The Development and Quality of Financial Accounting: - Unnecessary Disruptions and Established Routines BJÖRN BRORSTRÖM PIERRE DONATELLA Abstract This paper addresses financial accounting in Swedish municipalities and county councils and the quality of municipal accounting. The paper describes the ways in which municipal accounting has transformed over the last few decades towards accrual accounting and the development of the annual report to become more user-friendly. A study has been conducted of the quality of municipal annual reports with the purpose to find out whether they meet established criteria after 20 years of efforts to improve them. An operationalization of basic and crucial requirements for financial accounting has been done. In the next step the requirements have been compared with the actual content of the annual reports. The main result is that the annual reports are disclosed and provide accessible information, but is to some extent not up-to-date. Routines and institutionalized texts obstruct the reports’ newsworthiness and their informational content. The result of the study of the practice has apparent normative implications. Annual reports ought to be founded more firmly up-to-date if they should attract different kind of users.
