apps Other research product2020 Denmark DanishAuthors: Mørch, Anna Lydia Struve;Mørch, Anna Lydia Struve;This project report is written within a critical theoretic context for the subject Plan, Town and Process. It is researching the challenge surrounding students living in Copenhagen and the lack of affordable housing, through the perspective of the theory of the right to the city. The method used for this project is document analysis, which was chosen due to the current Covid-19 situation, and due to the wish to research the issue through the documents published by the actors themselves. The chosen theory is the right to the city which serves as the normative starting point for the critical theoretic approach. The right to the city is used as the way to view the documents through as to establish the students’ rights to Copenhagen. Through the chosen empirical data, I will highlight the different barriers which pose as obstacles in regards to building more affordable housing for students in the city.The first part of the analysis centers around the legislative aspects of the issue and includes The Danish Planning Act, the Municipal plan for Copenhagen 2019 and local plans for Kalvebod Brygge. These will be used to highlight relevant paragraphs that can be linked to the issue regarding the lack of affordable housing.The second part of the analysis centers around the right to the city and how the issues can be perceived through the theory. This part focuses on the normative view on how the students have a right to the city, and how that right functions in practice. The third part of the analysis centers around the different actors and what they see as barriers in regard to building more housing in Copenhagen. This is to understand what challenges they themselves point out, and how they talk into the theory of the right to the city. The discussion revolves around the student’s ability to gain or regain their right through the city, viewed from different perspectives. It explores what has to be done for the students right to the city to prevail. This chapter will also discuss the challenges in regard to this utopic idea of the right to the city. Lastly there will be a conclusion with the results of the analysis and discussion.

This is examined by analyzing how ethnic minorities are represented in Danish media coverage of increasing corona infection in the housing area Vollsmose, located in Odense, Denmark. Taking Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis approach combined with Høilund’s theory of The Right of Fear and Hallin’s theory of Spheres of the Journalistic World, this qualitative study analyzes 113 articles from eight Danish newspapers through thematic coding. The critical discourse analysis is structured according to Fairclough’s three-dimensional model, which divides the analysis into text, discursive practice and social practice. The analysis finds that the media draws on a nationalist discourse that is based on a concept of exclusion and divides the Danish society into “us” and “them”. The paper concludes that a nationalist discourse has gained hegemony in the media as well as the social and political structures of society. The media's representations of ethnic minorities during the covid-19 pandemic reproduces the same discourses as powerful political actors, thus contributing to the establishment of a nationalist discourse as a hegemonic discourse and strengthening nationalist political tendencies through fear of the covid-19 pandemic. Finally, the paper concludes that the media abandons the journalistic ideal of objectivity and critique by reproducing the same nationalist discourse as powerful political actors instead of challenging the attitudes, norms and values of prominent politicians. Thus, the media contributes to the creation and maintenance of unequal power relations, in which ethnic minorities are kept in a marginalized position.

The virus is transmitted mainly through small respiratory droplets from coughing or sneezing, where these droplets are then inhaled. The symptoms of COVID-19 vary in severity from being asymptomatic and in the more severe cases there is a risk of acute respiratory distress syndrome and pneumonia, which can poteintially lead to death. The asymptomatic cases is a problem, because they are as infectious as the servere cases, but they are not put in quarantine, which means they can still infect others. In this study we try to estimate the asymptomatic cases or non-registered cases, with an extended SEIR-model, using data from Iceland. In our extended SEIR-model we added two new I compartments, such that it consisted of both infected with no symptoms and infected with severe symptoms. The infected with severe symptoms will subsequently be placed in quarantine. We extended the SEIR-model, because in the classic SEIR-model it was not possible to differentiate the infected, since SEIR only gave an estimate on the total number of infections. In our SEIIIR-model we estimated different parameters to the associated compartments, to get the most optimal model. Since COVID-19 is an ongoing global pandemic, there is a lack of knowledge of the virus and the effective reproduction number is constantly changing. It is difficult to make any extensive conclutions. However, from this study we can conclude, that the non-registered cases have a big impact on the epidemic duration, R value and mortality, but to estimate the exact quantity requires a lot of testing, even on people who are feeling well.

CVZ) is built upon multiple critically flawed assumptions, obvious misuse of the standard analytical tools, and clear mistakes in study design. Additionally, the analysis presented contains crucial mathematical and statistical errors that completely revert the main results, sufficient that if the estimates had been calculated according to the declared methodology, the results would completely contradict the stated conclusions and policy recommendations. These are not idle criticisms. This study has received enormous public attention, and its results immediately appeared in discussions of public health policies around schools worldwide. The central question is resolving an evidence base for the inevitable tradeoff between (a) the very real harms of missed education provoked by policies that decrease viral spread vs. (b) the resumption of education as a social good which increases viral spread. This is an incredibly important public health question, and it demands careful cost-benefit analysis. To that end, this paper adds no usable evidence whatsoever.

For further information contact us at helpdesk@openaire.euapps Other research product2020 Denmark DanishAuthors: Jensen, Ida Marie Nyland; Nobel, Trine Cosmus;Jensen, Ida Marie Nyland; Nobel, Trine Cosmus;This study examines the emotional and social consequences of the COVID-19-crisis amongst students at a Danish university. The study is based upon a highly integrated mixed methods design consisting of a two-round panel data survey that was sent out in March (n = 2212), and October 2020 (n = 968), as well as five semi-structured interviews. In terms of quantitative methodology, it applies fixed effects, random effects, and ordinary least squares regression approaches, as well as independent sample T-tests. It draws on the theoretical framework of Pierre Bourdieu, mainly focusing on the concepts of habitus and hysteresis. Firstly, based upon a comparison with comparable respondents in ESS7, it finds that the COVID-19 crisis has led to a significant rise in ill-being and negative emotional consequences. In addi-tion, through panel data regression estimators, it finds that there are various significant predictors of ill-being during the COVID-19-crisis, the most prominent being the extent to which the respondents have managed to create daily structures throughout the crisis. Secondly, it finds that the crisis has partly be-come embedded as spontaneous practices, based on the restrictions, in the habitus of students, thus constituting it as a part of the social sphere. However, in line with the quantitative analysis, many re-spondents struggle with a lack of structure and physical variation. Likewise, it is shown that it is primari-ly the events that constitute everyday life that students feel deprived of. On the other hand, it becomes apparent that although the crisis has led to a higher level of ill-being, many students also experience it as a moment of reflection. Finally, it is demonstrated that although the corona crisis has become em-bedded in the habitus, there are elements of hysteresis effects which, since individuals are unable to use their spontaneous dispositions, make certain social situations hard and demanding, showcasing a dis-crepancy between the field and the habitus.

This biological achievement can be described as a genetic “pair of scissors” that can modify DNA to fx. remove a disease gene. The ethical discussion in this report includes arguments from moral philosopher Jonathan Glover and molecular biologist James Watson. We will look at the pros and cons in this discussion, and through an argumentation, the analysis assesses the validity of these claims. Arguments for the use of genetic enhancements include Parent’s right to decide for their child, competition and equality on a global scale, and human evolution. Arguments against include Genetic diversity declining, inequality between humans, and the natural fallacy.We have concluded that this is not a matter of right and wrong, but rather that what is necessary is a systematisation of use on somatic cells, as this won’t directly impact later generation. Gene modification on germ cells and embryos is, based on our evaluation, not ethically sustainable. To make this project even further we will also discuss how CRISPR technology can be used in our current pandemic stricken world as a tool in Covid-19 testing.

Der fokuseres på, hvordan medarbejderne navigerer i det grænseløse arbejde mellem deres privat- og arbejdsliv. Dette viser sig ved den mening, som medarbejderne tilegner deres identitet, som forstået ved hjælp af Karl Weicks meningsskabelse, samt grænsesætning gennem det grænseløse arbejde og boundary theory. For at analysere projektets empiri, benyttes en kombination af socialkonstruktivisme og fænomenologi, hvilket i sammenspil med det teoretiske perspektiv, giver et indblik i medarbejdernes livsverden. Dette beskriver hvordan forskellige forståelser af familie, arbejde, fritid påvirker balancen i hverdagslivet med øget hjemmearbejde i forbindelse med COVID-19. Projektets konklusion tydeliggør at, der kan ske en en sammensmeltning af medarbejdernes arbejds- og privatliv. Konklusionen giver samtidig indsigt i hvorvidt medarbejdernes work-life balance påvirkes af det øgede grænseløse arbejde. Desuden belyser projektet forskellige aspekter af identiteter i blandt andet alder, arbejdserfaring og opfattelse af hjemmet som arbejdsrum, og om dette har indflydelse på medarbejdernes meningsskabelse. The objective of this research project is to examine how three consultants working for EPICO, navigate through working at home, and in the workplace during the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus of this project then is the navigation and setting of borders between private life and of their work life. This is illuminated through the meaning that is subscribed to the consultant’s identities as it is understood by theories of Sensemaking by Karl Weick, as well as boundaries as presented by boundary theory and The Boundless. In analyzing the empirical evidence, the project utilizes a combination of social constructivism and phenomenology which, in combination with the theoretical framework, grants us a window into the inner world of the interviewees. This describes how different views of family, work, freetime and more allows for a deeper understanding of the process that is balancing life with more home-based work, during the COVID-19 pandemic. The project concludes that there is a substantial merging of private and work life for all interviewees. Though, several variations present themselves. This is explained by differences in, among others, age, experience in work and how the interviewed sees the home as a workspace in relation to theories of Sensemaking.

CVZ) is built upon multiple critically flawed assumptions, obvious misuse of the standard analytical tools, and clear mistakes in study design. Additionally, the analysis presented contains crucial mathematical and statistical errors that completely revert the main results, sufficient that if the estimates had been calculated according to the declared methodology, the results would completely contradict the stated conclusions and policy recommendations. These are not idle criticisms. This study has received enormous public attention, and its results immediately appeared in discussions of public health policies around schools worldwide. The central question is resolving an evidence base for the inevitable tradeoff between (a) the very real harms of missed education provoked by policies that decrease viral spread vs. (b) the resumption of education as a social good which increases viral spread. This is an incredibly important public health question, and it demands careful cost-benefit analysis. To that end, this paper adds no usable evidence whatsoever.

For further information contact us at helpdesk@openaire.euapps Other research product2020 Denmark DanishAuthors: Jensen, Ida Marie Nyland; Nobel, Trine Cosmus;Jensen, Ida Marie Nyland; Nobel, Trine Cosmus;This study examines the emotional and social consequences of the COVID-19-crisis amongst students at a Danish university. The study is based upon a highly integrated mixed methods design consisting of a two-round panel data survey that was sent out in March (n = 2212), and October 2020 (n = 968), as well as five semi-structured interviews. In terms of quantitative methodology, it applies fixed effects, random effects, and ordinary least squares regression approaches, as well as independent sample T-tests. It draws on the theoretical framework of Pierre Bourdieu, mainly focusing on the concepts of habitus and hysteresis. Firstly, based upon a comparison with comparable respondents in ESS7, it finds that the COVID-19 crisis has led to a significant rise in ill-being and negative emotional consequences. In addi-tion, through panel data regression estimators, it finds that there are various significant predictors of ill-being during the COVID-19-crisis, the most prominent being the extent to which the respondents have managed to create daily structures throughout the crisis. Secondly, it finds that the crisis has partly be-come embedded as spontaneous practices, based on the restrictions, in the habitus of students, thus constituting it as a part of the social sphere. However, in line with the quantitative analysis, many re-spondents struggle with a lack of structure and physical variation. Likewise, it is shown that it is primari-ly the events that constitute everyday life that students feel deprived of. On the other hand, it becomes apparent that although the crisis has led to a higher level of ill-being, many students also experience it as a moment of reflection. Finally, it is demonstrated that although the corona crisis has become em-bedded in the habitus, there are elements of hysteresis effects which, since individuals are unable to use their spontaneous dispositions, make certain social situations hard and demanding, showcasing a dis-crepancy between the field and the habitus.

This biological achievement can be described as a genetic “pair of scissors” that can modify DNA to fx. remove a disease gene. The ethical discussion in this report includes arguments from moral philosopher Jonathan Glover and molecular biologist James Watson. We will look at the pros and cons in this discussion, and through an argumentation, the analysis assesses the validity of these claims. Arguments for the use of genetic enhancements include Parent’s right to decide for their child, competition and equality on a global scale, and human evolution. Arguments against include Genetic diversity declining, inequality between humans, and the natural fallacy.We have concluded that this is not a matter of right and wrong, but rather that what is necessary is a systematisation of use on somatic cells, as this won’t directly impact later generation. Gene modification on germ cells and embryos is, based on our evaluation, not ethically sustainable. To make this project even further we will also discuss how CRISPR technology can be used in our current pandemic stricken world as a tool in Covid-19 testing.

Der fokuseres på, hvordan medarbejderne navigerer i det grænseløse arbejde mellem deres privat- og arbejdsliv. Dette viser sig ved den mening, som medarbejderne tilegner deres identitet, som forstået ved hjælp af Karl Weicks meningsskabelse, samt grænsesætning gennem det grænseløse arbejde og boundary theory. For at analysere projektets empiri, benyttes en kombination af socialkonstruktivisme og fænomenologi, hvilket i sammenspil med det teoretiske perspektiv, giver et indblik i medarbejdernes livsverden. Dette beskriver hvordan forskellige forståelser af familie, arbejde, fritid påvirker balancen i hverdagslivet med øget hjemmearbejde i forbindelse med COVID-19. Projektets konklusion tydeliggør at, der kan ske en en sammensmeltning af medarbejdernes arbejds- og privatliv. Konklusionen giver samtidig indsigt i hvorvidt medarbejdernes work-life balance påvirkes af det øgede grænseløse arbejde. Desuden belyser projektet forskellige aspekter af identiteter i blandt andet alder, arbejdserfaring og opfattelse af hjemmet som arbejdsrum, og om dette har indflydelse på medarbejdernes meningsskabelse. The objective of this research project is to examine how three consultants working for EPICO, navigate through working at home, and in the workplace during the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus of this project then is the navigation and setting of borders between private life and of their work life. This is illuminated through the meaning that is subscribed to the consultant’s identities as it is understood by theories of Sensemaking by Karl Weick, as well as boundaries as presented by boundary theory and The Boundless. In analyzing the empirical evidence, the project utilizes a combination of social constructivism and phenomenology which, in combination with the theoretical framework, grants us a window into the inner world of the interviewees. This describes how different views of family, work, freetime and more allows for a deeper understanding of the process that is balancing life with more home-based work, during the COVID-19 pandemic. The project concludes that there is a substantial merging of private and work life for all interviewees. Though, several variations present themselves. This is explained by differences in, among others, age, experience in work and how the interviewed sees the home as a workspace in relation to theories of Sensemaking.
