En empirisk undersøgelse af effekten af lingvistisk kompleksitet og LSP på oversættelse af spanske teksterHalskov Jensen, Elisabeth (Frederiksberg, 1999)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Det vi ved om oversættelsesprocessen er i dag i høj grad baseret på information om den strategiske adfærd, der kan eliciteres ved højttænkning og retrospektion — eller observeres af forsøgsiederen — under et givet oversættelsesforløb. Krings (1986), Lörscher (1991) og Kiraly (1995) er blandt de forskere, som på basis afempiriske analyser af høj ttænkningsprotokoller har udarbejdet modeller, hvor de gør rede for oversættelsesstrategier. Megen forskning har først og fremmest interesseret sig for at beskrive en adfærd hos oversætteren, som angiveligt var årsagen til mindre vellykkede oversættelser (f.eks. Königs 1993; Kussmaul 1995; Hönig 1995). En del studier har også sammenlignet professionelle og ikke professionelle eller gode versus dårlige oversættere (f.eks. Gerloff 1988; Jääskeläinen 1990; Tirkkonen-Condit 1991; Krings 1987, 1997). Alle disse studier har bidraget til, at vi i dag kan sætte ord på en stor del af den adfærd, der foregår i en oversættelsesprocces, men studiet af oversættelsesprocessen er stadig i sin begyndelse. Formålet med denne undersøgelse er at bidrage til beskrivelsen af, hvordan tekstuelle faktorer påvirker oversættelse. Fokus er således ikke på de strategier, som oversættere anvender under oversættelse, men på hvordan tekstprocessing påvirkes af henholdsvis tekstens krav til specialiseret forhåndsviden (LSP-viden) og dens lingvistiske kompleksitet. LSP-teksterne i denne undersøgelse er spanske juridiske tekster, og en gruppe semi-professionelle oversættere er valgt som informanter. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/9317 Filer i denne post: 1

Resume: In this paper, we analyze the concept of human-computer interaction in cultural and national contexts. Building and extending upon the framework for understanding research in usability and culture by Honold [3], we give an overview of publications in culture and HCI between 1998 and 2008, with a narrow focus on high-level journal publications only. The purpose is to review current practice in how cultural HCI issues are studied, and to analyse problems with the measures and interpretation of this studies. We find that Hofstede’s cultural dimensions has been the dominating model of culture, participants have been picked because they could speak English, and most studies have been large scale quantitative studies. In order to balance this situation, we recommend that more researchers and practitioners do qualitative, empirical work studies. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7948 Filer i denne post: 1

Does negative equity exist as a permanent feature in the Danish housing market?Lunde, Jens (København, 2005)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: House and flat prices have been through a tremendous bust and boom cycle in Denmark. From 1986 to 1993 real prices for houses and flats dropped by one third on average, foreclosures accounted for around 1/6 of the house and flat turnovers in numbers, and in reality the market for owner-occupied houses and flats was in a crisis. Initiated by a strong interest rate drop and by an expansive finance policy, the market turned. From 1993H1 to 2004H1 real house prices increased 76% and real flat prices 128%. Moreover, Denmark has a leading position in the international household debt race and as in many other countries the fear of the consequences of a strong interest rate increase for the housing market is widespread. Therefore, in order to examine the financial stability among owner-occupiers, a sample of approx. 40,000 owner-occupier families with data at household level has been drawn from the tax statistics for each year from 1987 to 2003. Through the analysis it is shown that the distributions of the owner-occupiers’ capital structure, measured by the net liability/housing wealth ratios, have more or less been the same throughout the 16 years, even during the long-lasting steep house and flat price rise. Moreover, since 1994 the median value of the net liability/income ratio has increased by 71% for all owner-occupiers and by 54% for owner-occupiers between 30-39 years of age.Finally, one last, important aspect of the financial stability of owner-occupiers, namely, their capacity to service their debt has been analysed. The owner-occupiers’ net interest expenditures/ income ratios before tax have been nearly halved from 1987 to 2003. Most of the drop happened during the years of the "housing market failure". From 1994 on the ratios were more slightly reduced and were in 2003 at 8.8% (median value) for all owner-occupiers and 12.2% for owner-occupiers between 30-39 years of age. However, if the reductions of the tax rates for deducting interest expenditures are taken into account, the 2003 after-tax-ratios are only about 2 percentage points below the 1987 after-tax ratios. At March 2005, a new challenge facing Danish owner-occupiers is that 50% of their mortgages carry interest adjustment. Keywords: house prices, housing wealth, real estate wealth, housing debt, mortgage debt, personal wealth, personal finance, loan-to-value, debt-to-income, interest expenditures, interest-to-income, financial stability.

Insights from Annual General MeetingsStrand, Therese (Frederiksberg, 2012)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This thesis consists of five empirical studies, all relating to shareholder activism at annual general meetings. The first study concerns the structure and content of general meetings in Denmark and Sweden comparatively. The paper reveals significant differences in the level of activism, with Swedish investors being the most active in terms of proposals, proxy voting, and ‘voice’. The paper takes a legal approach, and discusses divergence in activism levels from the perspective of shareholder prerequisites to engage in monitoring efforts. Further, the paper investigating the topics addressed through questions and opinions. The results show that matters which can be categorized as irrelevant are reasonably rare. This is an important finding, as suggestions to abolish general meetings have often been based on the assumption that general meetings facilitate nothing but irrelevant, time consuming, and costly discussions that serves no monitoring function. The second study analyses the impact of voting power on shareholder activism. We hypothesize that there is a positive relationship between shareholder activism and a measure of the largest shareholder’s sensitivity to increased participation by small shareholders and find that firms’ amenability to small shareholder influence leads to more proposals by the nomination committee, but fewer proposals by other shareholders. We interpret this as evidence that the shareholder elected nomination committees effectively channel shareholder concerns and preempt other kinds of activism. Politicians and companies that desire active shareholders could improve the amenability of firms to shareholder influence by ownership transparency, shareholder committees, and contacts with shareholder associations and other vehicles for collective action...

A Business Historical AnalysisIversen, Martin Jes; Tuborg Arnth Nielsen, Peter; Pretzmann, Louise (Frederiksberg, 2015)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This short report forms part of the ambitious CBS Maritime research initiative entitled “Competitive Challenges and Strategic Development Potential in Global Maritime Industries”, which was launched in 2014 with the generous support of the Danish Maritime Fund. The competitiveness initiative targets specific maritime industries (including shipping, offshore energy, ports, and maritime service and equipment suppliers) as well as addresses topics that cut across maritime industries (regulation and competitiveness). The topics and narrower research questions addressed in the initiative were developed in close dialogue between CBS Maritime and the maritime industries in Denmark. CBS Maritime is a Business in Society (BiS) Platform at Copenhagen Business School committed to the big question of how to achieve economic and social progress in the maritime industries. CBS Maritime aims to strengthen a maritime focus at CBS and create the foundation for CBS as a stronger partner for the maritime industries, as well as for other universities and business school with a devotion to maritime economics research. The competitiveness initiative comprises a number of PhD projects and five short-term mapping projects, the latter aiming at developing key concepts and building up a basic industry knowledge-base for further development of CBS Maritime research and teaching. This report attempts to map the fundamental changes in financing methods, ownership structures and strategies within the Danish product tanker segment.

Resume: Firms in the European countries today have the possibility of choosing from a range of control enhancing mechanisms giving the controlling owners an amount of influence which is disproportional to their share of cash flow. The list of control enhancing mechanisms includes dual class shares, pyramidal ownership structures and several others. The justification for these control enhancing mechanisms is currently the subject of much debate within the European Union. The opposing positions in the debate can be stated briefly as i) the control enhancing mechanisms are an impediment to takeovers and should therefore be removed to improve the market for corporate control. ii) Removing the control enhancing mechanisms reduces the contractual freedom to decide desirable ownership structures. This report investigates whether ownership structures affect firm performance. To do so this study provides a description of the current ownership structures in European countries and the economic outcomes for firms using different ownership structures. The results are presented in the tables below. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7491 Filer i denne post: 1

An EU Procurement Law PerspectiveTvarnø, Christina D. (Frederiksberg, 2015)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: This memo concerns the new public procurement directive adopted by the EU in 2014. The new directive, in many ways, acknowledges P3 as a significant instrument in both the public and the private sector, especially in comparison to the 2004 public procurement directive on works. In the last 10 years, P3 has been governed by restrictive rules on anti-corruption, transparency, equality and competition, based on a principle on non-negotiation.

The case of video production at the BBC Digital Media InitiativeMariategui, Jose-Carlos; Marton, Attila (Frederiksberg, 2013)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: The unfolding of the paradoxical interplay between overarching institutional orders and domain-specific, situated practices has been a central theme of organization studies. With the rise of information and communication technology (ICT), digital infrastructures and the standards they foster are disseminating on a global scale based on the computational rationale of binary-based digitalization. The following paper will delve into this paradoxical interplay by studying digital video as it travels across work practices of broadcasting qua computational standards and processes. Using BBC’s Digital Media Initiative (DMI) as a case study, we seek to assess how work practices are affected by the use of digital video throughout the editing process. In particular, we take a semiological approach in order to understand two distinctive image-intensive practices, news and long-form productions, and the ways they changed due to the implementation of a digital infrastructure. Thus conceived, we demonstrate how digitalization as a technical process decontextualizes digital video information, while the work practices related to their management rely on highly contextualized and situated information.

L’ «orientation mondiale» dans les programmes de français au DanemarkVerstraete-Hansen, Lisbeth (Paris, 2014)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: Cet article propose une réflexion sur ce qu’on pourrait appeler « l’orientation mondiale » des programmes de français au Danemark. Plusieurs rapport officiels et études académiques ont souligné la nécessité de mieux assurer la progression entre les différents niveaux de l’enseignement des langues étrangères, mais les recommandations concernent plus souvent l’acquisition de la langue et les compétences communicatives que le contenu des cours. A travers l’examen de la présence de la « francophonie » dans les documents officiels concernant l’école fondamentale, le lycée et la formation universitaire destinée à former les futurs enseignants pour le lycée, l’article montre que la vision et la place de ce qu’est une « orientation mondiale » varient considérablement d’un niveau à l’autre du système éducatif.

Evidence from Unexpected Inheritance due to Sudden DeathAndersen, Steffen; Meisner Nielsen, Kasper (Frederiksberg, 2010)[Flere oplysninger][Færre oplysninger]
Resume: We use a natural experiment to investigate the impact of participation constraints on individuals' decisions to invest in the stock market. Unexpected inheritance due to sudden deaths results in exogenous variation in financial wealth and allows us to examine whether fixed entry and ongoing participation costs cause non-participation. We have three key findings. First, windfall wealth has a positive effect on participation. Second, the majority of households do not react to sizeable windfalls by entering the stock market, but hold on to substantial safe assets—even over longer horizons. Third, the majority of households inheriting stock holdings actively sell the entire portfolio. Overall, these findings suggest that participation by many individuals is unlikely to be constrained by financial participation costs. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8169 Filer i denne post: 1
