Its use is commonly associated with chronic diseases management and disease prevention. While CAM utilization is becoming more usual, the population-based descriptions of its patterns of use are still lacking; little research has been devoted to exploring whether the prevalence of CAM and socio-demographic characteristics of CAM users change over time, particularly in Norway.

The Relationship Between Earnings and First Birth Probability Among Norwegian Men and Women 1994-2008
Discussion Papers Statistics Norway Research department No. 787 • October 2014 Rannveig V. Kaldager The relationship between earnings and ﬁ rst birth probability among Norwegian men and women 1994-2008 Discussion Papers No. 787, October 2014 Statistics Norway, Research Department Rannveig V. Kaldager The relationship between earnings and first birth probability among Norwegian men and women 1994-2008 Abstract: I analyze whether the correlation between yearly earnings and the first birth probabilities changed in the period 1994-2008 in Norway, applying discrete-time hazard regressions to highly accurate data from population registers. The results show that the correlation between earnings and fertility has become more positive over time for women but is virtually unchanged for men – rendering the correlation fairly similar across sex at the end of the period. Though the (potential) opportunity cost of fathering increases, there is no evidence of a weaker correlation between earnings and first birth probability for men. I suggest that decreasing opportunity costs of motherhood as well as strategic timing of fertility to reduce wage penalties of motherhood are both plausible explanations of the increasingly positive correlation among women.

Networking, Lobbying and Bargaining for Pensions: Trade Union Power in the Norwegian Pension Reform
Journal of Public Policy (2019), 39, 465–481 doi:10.1017/S0143814X18000144 . ARTICLE Networking, lobbying and bargaining for pensions: trade union power in the Norwegian pension reform 1 2 https://www.cambridge.org/core/terms Anne Skevik Grødem * and Jon M. Hippe 1Institute for Social Research, Elisenberg, Oslo, Norway E-mail: [email protected] and 2Fafo Institute for Labour and Social Research, Tøyen, Oslo, Norway E-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] (Received 13 March 2017; revised 13 March 2018; accepted 2 April 2018; first published online 23 May 2018) Abstract Norway reformed its pension system in 2011, introducing a Swedish-style, NDC system. Contrary to expectations, the reform was largely supported by the dominant confederation of trade unions, the LO. In this article, we look at LO involvement in the process at different stages. Through qualitative interviews with key reform architects, we have traced the process between 2005 and 2008, emphasising actors, meeting places and interests. Starting , subject to the Cambridge Core terms of use, available at from the insight that unions can influence through lobbying, bargaining and (the threat of) mobilising, we suggest that lobbying can be a mutual process, where parties and unions move each other’s positions. In addition, bargaining can take the form of behind-the-scenes cooperation, as well as of negotiations in the classic, Nordic-style industrial relations sense. Expanding on this framework, we suggest that the literature on pension reforms should pay more attention to negotiated and voluntary labour market occupational schemes, and to 25 Sep 2021 at 02:16:42 the importance of expertise and networks.

The Social Motivation
International Electronic Journal of Elementary Education Vol. 3, Issue 1, October, 2010. Home education: The social motivation Christian W. BECK ∗∗∗ University of Oslo, Norway Abstract Data from a Norwegian survey show correlation between a student’s socially related problems at school and the parent’s social motivation for home education. I argue that more time spent at school by a student could result in more socially related problems at school, which can explain an increase in social motivation for home education. Keywords: home education, homeschooling, social school-problems, parents` motives. Introduction A question concerning extended school-time and home education are raised and discussed in this article: Will expanding time spent in school for students and decreasing time spent in everyday life result in more socially motivated home education? A social motive is here defined as related to a deficiency in the student’s social frames and ones other than more personal motives like pedagogical and religious (life-orientation) motives, such as socially related problems at school and parents who want to spend more time with their children. Is there a limit to school-growth? Informal education with individual and societal concerns twined together in everyday life was the long historical starting period of schooling. For a long time after the first educational law was put into effect in Norway in 1739, there was lack of schools in rural areas and therefore home education was allowed and practised (Tveit, 2004). ∗ Correspondence: Christian W.

The St. Olav's Way – the Origin, Nature and Trends in Development of Pilgrimage Activity in Scandinavia
PEREGRINUS CRACOVIENSIS 2016, 27 ( 1 ), 25–45 ISSN 1425–1922 doi: 10.4467/20833105PC.16.002.8903 Tomasz Duda The St. Olav’s Way – the origin, nature and trends in development of pilgrimage activity in Scandinavia Abstract: In the Middle Ages the idea of pilgrimage reached Scandinavia, for a long time regarded as a permanent mainstay of pagan beliefs associated mainly with the traditions and culture of Nordic warriors – the Vikings. The prolonged and filled with many dif- ficulties process of Christianization of northern Europe, over time developed a rapidly growing cult of St. Olav – a warrior, king and martyr of the Christian faith. Over nearly four hundred years, thousands of pilgrims embarked on pilgrimages to the tomb of the saint in Trondheim, making the Nidaros Cathedral the most important pilgrimage center in this part of Europe. In 1997, the first section of the St. Olav’s Way between Oslo and Trondheim was offi- cially re-opened. After it has been signposted, described and promoted, as well as after it has been awarded with the title of European Cultural Route by the European Council in 2010, the St. Olav’s Way has become one of the largest and most important pilgri- mage routes in Europe. The present study is based on preliminary research conducted by the author on the St. Olav’s Way in the last couple of years. Analysis of the available statistical data, as well as the opinions of the trail users themselves and its organizers as obtained by the author through social studies (surveys and direct interviews) allowed, however, to develop some preliminary research on the size and nature of pilgrimage movement along the routes of the St.

Internationales Holzbau-Forum 10 Wooden house construction in Scandinavia – a model for Europe | T. Schauerte 3 Wooden house construction in Scandinavia – a model for Europe This paper is aiming at describing selected areas of wooden house construction in Scandinavia, in order to show, whether or not these areas might be of referent power for other parts of Europe. The term Scandinavia might be misleading to the attentive reader, since the countries of interest for the present paper are not limited to the countries in the particular geographi- cal meaning of the Scandinavian peninsula, i.e. Norway and Sweden. Here and as often associated in a broader habitual linguistic meaning, Denmark and Finland are included as well. To give an overview of wooden house constructions in these countries, it is distinguished between the markets for single family houses on the one hand and multistory houses on the other hand. In the chapter on multistory houses, strategies and concepts aiming at triggering wood in construction are presented as well, as these to a large extent, and some of them almost exclusively, are designated for multistory houses in wood.
