The article presents a comparative overv
Avdelningen för konsthistoria och visuella studier forskar om äldre, modern och nutida konst, arkitektur och design utifrån historiska, samhälleliga och estetiska infallsvinklar. Konsthistoria är en humanistisk disciplin i betydelsen ett studium av det mänskliga. Det vi kallar konst är en människans spegel – äldre än historiens textbaserade källor och idag levande och mångfacetterad. Samtidigt äThe Division of Art History and Visual Studies researches old, modern and contemporary art, architecture and design, from historical, social and aesthetic perspectives. Art History is a humanistic discipline, a study of that which is human. What we call art is a mirror for the human, older than textual sources and vibrant and multifaceted today. At the same time, artworks are linked to their time

The Integrated Carbon Observation System (ICOS) is a pan-European research infrastructure which provides harmonized and high-precision scientific data on the carbon cycle and the greenhouse gas budget. All stations have to undergo a rigorous assessment before being labeled, i.e., receiving approval to join the network. In this paper, we present the labeling process for the ICOS atmosphere network
Interpenetrating polymer systems based on crosslinked polyurethane (PU) and polystyrene (PS) were prepared at room temperature by a one-shot (in situ) method, starting from an initial homogeneous mixture of reagents via noninterfering mechanisms. Both polymerizations were performed either simultaneously or one after the other. True simultaneity at every stages of the process is not possible. Despi

Coevolution occurs when species interact to influence one another's fitness, resulting in reciprocal evolutionary change. In many coevolving lineages, trait expression in one species is modified by the genotypes and phenotypes of the other, forming feedback loops reminiscent of models of intraspecific social evolution. Here, we adapt the theory of within-species social evolution, characterized by
If things go as planned, the EU will have two new member states in January 2007: Bulgaria and Romania.

There are many who have disputed the correctness or appropriateness of one or the other concepts. Boudard (
