Denna avhandling undersöker 1998 års svenska förbud mot sexköp utifrån den uppmärksamhet lagen fått som ett unikt tillvägagångssätt för att reglera prostitution, den starkt polariserade politiska miljö den existerar inom och de många juridiska motsägelser den uppvisar. Genom material insamlat genom en multisituerad metod mellan åren 2009 och 2019 visar studien att sexköpsförbudet är en variant av This essay thesis examines Sweden’s 1999 ban on purchasing sexual services, considering the attention it received as an unprecedented approach to governing prostitution, the highly polarised political environment in which it exists, and the multiple legal contradictions it displays. Using material gathered through a multisited method from 2009 through 2019, the study shows that the offence is a va

This study examines data-driven campaign (DDC) practices in Sweden. We explore the extent of data-driven practices adopted in Swedish political campaigns, and parties’ motivations to adopt them. Since this is a comparison of domestic parties, we test the importance of four party-level factors—resources, structure, attitudes toward data use, and ideology—using extensive interviews with key campaign

Combining high peak and high average power has long been a key challenge of ultrafast laser technology, crucial for applications such as laser-plasma acceleration and strong-field physics. A promising solution lies in post-compressed ytterbium lasers, but scaling these to high pulse energies presents a major bottleneck. Post-compression techniques, particularly Herriott-type multi-pass cells (MPCs

Methodological considerations in practice-based research: lessons learned from research with a music school in SwedenThis is a presentation of a practice-based research project that has been carried out in collaboration between two course leaders from a music school in Sweden and one researcher between 2022 and 2023. The aim of the research project is to contribute to knowledge about pupil particiMethodological considerations in practice-based research: lessons learned from research with a music school in SwedenThis is a presentation of a practice-based research project that has been carried out in collaboration between two course leaders from a music school in Sweden and one researcher between 2022 and 2023.

In what ways can various perspectives, aims, circumstances, and directives influence music students and music teachers in different educational contexts such as primary school, Schools of music and performing arts (SMPA), folk high school, and upper secondary school, viewed from a Nordic perspective?A common characteristic for all these types of schools is that they can be part of an educational a

We perform an experimental two-color high-order harmonic generation study in argon with the fundamental of an ytterbium ultrashort pulse laser and its second harmonic. The intensity of the second harmonic and its phase relative to the fundamental are varied, in a large range compared to earlier works, while keeping the total intensity constant. We extract the optimum values for the relative phase

This chapter explores the relationship between long-term exposure to neighborhood income inequality and adult mortality in Landskrona during a period of declining economic disparities. Using geocoded data from 1939 to 1967, the authors examine three interconnected hypotheses concerning income inequality and longevity. The analysis considers spatial changes in neighborhood inequality over time and

Our book has taken a distinctive, policy-oriented approach to IGR in analysing both specific crisis-driven problems and new, longer-term, and emerging policy issues confronting European governments. We have explored the shifting balances of power within IGR systems focused on the challenges of vertical and horizontal coordination within cross-country, comparative perspectives. In order to position

Background: Involving librarians as team members can lead to better quality in reviews. To improve their search results, an international diabetes project involved two medical librarians in a large-scale project planning of a series of systematic reviews for clinical guidelines in diabetes precision medicine. Case Presentation: The precision diabetes project was divided into teams. Four diabetes m

Introduction: The long-term effects of a capitate fracture are unknown. The aim of this study was to assess both clinical and radiological long-term outcomes after a capitate fracture. Materials and methods: From a cohort of 526 consecutive patients with post traumatic radial sided wrist pain, 23 were identified diagnosed with a capitate fracture. 16 of these (11 males and 5 females) with a median

Scope: This European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases guideline provides evidence-based recommendations to support a selection of appropriate antibiotic use practices for patients seen in the emergency department (ED) and guidance for their implementation. The topics addressed in this guideline are (a) Do biomarkers or rapid pathogen tests improve antibiotic prescribing and

International consensus supports the development of standardized protocols for measured glomerular filtration rate (mGFR) to facilitate the integration of mGFR testing in both clinical and research settings. To this end, the European Kidney Function Consortium convened an international group of experts with relevant experience in mGFR. The working group performed an extensive literature search to

In this paper, I discuss resistance against antisemitism in relation to the overall antiracist struggle. Inspired by postcolonial theory and critical race studies, and by locating notions of “Swedishness” at the core of the analysis, I show that antisemitism can be understood as a form of structural racism entangled with other racisms.

Ur ett forskarperspektiv förankrat i en bred tradition av kritisk teori framstår det inte som eftersträvansvärt att hitta ”rätt” definition av antisemitism. Precis som vi inte har några en gång för alla fastslagna definitioner av rasism, homofobi, sexism eller något annat måste vi förstå även antisemitismen som ett socialt och historiskt fenomen som ständigt befinner sig i rörelse och under omförh
