This chapter explores homesickness of the Swedish colonial employees in the settlement of New Sweden and pays attention to the potential role of material culture in instigating feelings of longing. In the seventeenth century, in the age of wars fought far from home, colonial expansion and transoceanic resettlements, homesickness became a considerable social problem. In 1688, Johannes Hofer, a Swis

In the creation of the Swedish Torts Act of 1972, questions of autonomy were raised and discussed in a number of different ways. Its treatment here and in the writing of several important legal scholars in the period between the 1864 Penal Law and the new Torts Act offers several valuable insights into the problem of autonomy and tort law today, not least concerning robotics and AI. This essay ar

The tumor suppressor CYLD and the proto-oncogene BCL-3 are known to be deregulated in various cancer types. The molecular background of how these genes participate in carcinogenesis is not fully understood. CYLD is a deubiquitinating enzyme known to specifically target lysine 63 linked ubiquitin chains, which can negatively regulate the BCL-3, NF-κB and JNK signaling pathways, leading to a decreas

The aim of the study reported here was to investigate changes in the digestive enzyme content in the pancreas after food and secretagogue stimulation. Rats from which food had been withheld overnight were either fed (between 6 and 8 a.m.) or not before euthanasia and pancreatic excision (at 8 a.m.: 21 not fed and 21 fed) and at 4 (12 p.m.: six not fed and six fed) and 8 h later (4 p.m.: six not fe

Bangladesh is located in a danger area of the World. The geographical location makes the country vulnerable for tropical cyclones and other hazards. An increasing number of natural disasters such as floods, storms, and tropical cyclones, always keep the coastal people in a worst condition. Bangladesh government is not always fully successful in recovering the situation and gives a sustainable live

Both in the media and academic circles there have been a proliferation of interest in drag queens. While the female impersonator has a long recorded history, our contemporary society’s quite public and sustained preoccupation about the subject seems to be unprecedented. Even though drag can be considered part of the Swedish pop culture, to see a man dressed in clothes that are typically attributed

This study aims to investigate whether countries succeed to reduce their contribution to global emissions when countries reach higher levels of income. As a result of rapid changes in international trade, a country’s emission responsibility goes beyond national borders, which should be adequately captured in their carbon footprint. This study discusses that the two conventional accounting measures

This thesis examines how psychological traits, specifically self-control and entrepreneurial passion, interact with entrepreneurial intention to predict entrepreneurial action among graduates of a Master's programme in Entrepreneurship and Innovation at Lund University. Guided by the Rubicon Model of Action Phases, we distinguish between the formation of entrepreneurial intention (predecisiona

This research investigates the perceived barriers to UK Trade Unions (TU) engagement in climate change and environmental issues, from the perspective of union members working at local branch, union policy and strategy levels, and what opportunities there are for developing an environmental trade union movement. With the advent of catastrophic climate change necessitating rapid decarbonisation of t

Rampant land reclamation is shifting the ecological, political, and social landscape of the Maldives. While the state frames land reclamation as a remedy for land scarcity, a climate change adaptation, and as an indicator of development, these narratives conceal lived-experiences of land reclamation and the accompanying social and environmental harm. Through semi-structured interviews with Maldivi

The Moon’s origin is an exciting topic that many scientists believe started with a colossal collision between early Earth and a Mars-sized body. In this study, we examine the possibility that Theia, a body known to have existed, may have formed in a stable orbit between Earth and Mars, and eventually collided with our planet due to orbital changes over time. To explore this event, we use the REBOU

This thesis investigates the lived experiences of women with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), diagnosed in adulthood in Denmark, focusing on how culturally ingrained norms and diagnostic frameworks contribute to masking behaviours, delayed recognition and systemic exclusion. The reason behind this thesis is a persistent underdiagnosis of ADHD in women and the subsequent resultant n

As the impacts and consequences of climate change intensify and accelerate, climate adaptation is becoming increasingly central to and visible in European Union (EU) policy and governance. Yet, climate adaptation has historically been given less political and academic attention than climate mitigation. This thesis explores how the European Commission formulates and projects strategic narratives ab

The construction industry is a very traditional sector. The construction supply chain is very complex and fragmented since every project is site-based and unique. The distinctive nature of the construction industry is its heavy reliance on subcontracting. A common practice in the industry is to organize projects with a tier of subcontractors working for a main contractor. Since it is a knowledge-i

Denna uppsats undersöker hur det svenska genomförandet av de nya gränsförfarandena, som del av EU:s nya migrations- och asylpakt, kan påverka asylsökandes rätt till frihet under artikel 5 i Europakonventionen. Fokus ligger på screeningförfarandet, asylgränsförfarandet och gränsförfarandet för återvändande, vilka tillsammans skapar en ny inresefas vid ankomst till Unionen. Pakten bygger på den rättThis thesis examines how the Swedish implementation of the new border procedures, as part of the new EU Pact on Migration and Asylum, may affect asylum seekers’ right to liberty under Article 5 of the European Convention on Human Rights. The focus is on the screening procedure, the asylum border procedure and the return border procedure, which together create a new pre-entry phase when arriving to

Stålindustrin står för ungefär 7-8% av världens växthusgasutsläpp, och fordonsindustrin är en av dess viktigaste kunder. Fordonstillverkare som Volvo, Mercedes och Scania möter idag hårdare krav på att minska utsläppen i sina försörjningskedjor, genom regelverk i EU som förändras snabbt och ett växande tryck att ansvara för sina koldioxidavtryck. I detta sammanhang har grönt stål blivit en strategThe steel sector accounts for approximately 7-8% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and the automotive industry stands for a large part of its customer base. As Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), such as Volvo, Mercedes and Scania etc., face tightening Scope 3 emission targets, evolving EU regulatory frameworks, and growing pressure to decarbonise their supply chains, the question of

Pharmaceutical manufacturing of parenteral injections must be fine-tuned to yield a stable API through efficient production methods. Assessing a products processability is essential to ensure consistent manufacturing and safe drug administration, of which powder flowability and dissolution both have a direct impact. Spray drying is a particle engineering technique to modify these parameters, howev
