Vittnesmålen i Polska källinstitutet i Lund utgör idag en unik intervjuskatt som saknar motstycke! Föreliggande komparativa fallstudie analyserar hur förintelseöverlevande behandlades i koncentrationslägren och hur detta skildras i de polska vittnesutsagorna om Förintelsen från 1945 – 1946. I undersökningen tillämpas flera olika metoder bl.a. kvalitativ textanalys i kombination med en kvantitativ The witness testimonies at the Polish Research Institute archive in Lund constitute today a unique and unparalleled interview gem! The subsequent comparative case study analyses how Holocaust survivors were treated in the concentration camps and how this is described in the Polish witness testimonies about the Holocaust from 1945 - 1946. Several different methods are applied in the study including

Illegal gränsöverskridande avfallshandel är en komplex fråga. Att en avfallstransport är illegal är inte alltid lätt att bevisa då det är flera aspekter som spelar in. I Sverige är det flera myndigheter som samarbetar på området och samarbetar med andra länder. Svenska myndigheter jobbar återkommande med att förbättra tillsynen när det kommer till att identifiera och stoppa de illegala avfallstranIllegal waste trafficking is today one of the most profitable illegal activities in the world. About 25 % of all global waste transports are estimated to be illegal and they are increasing. The same applies to plastics; the production of plastics is increasing and so is the illegal shipment of plastic waste. Due to the often- harmful substances in plastics, when plastic waste is not taken care of

Föreliggande studie har undersökt implementering av terapeuters erhållna kunskaper efter att ha genomgått vidareutbildning i biologisk traumabehandling, som är en utbildning för behandling av trauma med utgångspunkt i kroppen. Två frågeställningar har studerats: 1) Vilket kunskapsinnehåll och vilka kunskapsformer står i fokus när terapeuterna reflekterar över sin praktik i biologisk traumabehandliThe purpose of this study is to examine the implementation of knowledge acquired by therapists after having taking part in a further education course of biological trauma treatment, which aimed at using the body as a starting point for trauma treatment. Two issues have been studied: 1)What content of knowledge and what forms of knowledge have the therapists reflected about in their practice of bio

Issue: Does a statistical relationship between OMXS30 and S&P500 plus OMXS30 and DAX30 exist after extreme returns? Is it possible to explain the relationship between OMXS30 and S&P500 plus S&P500 and DAX30 with the chosen economic theories? Purpose: The purpose is to examine the effects on OMXS30 during 6 days after extreme returns on S&P500 or DAX30 are present. These effects wi

The link between the incurrence of a customs debt and the incurrence of the Value Added Tax on importation, have a parallel nature, as they arise from the importation of goods into the territory of the Community. This link is a result of Article 71 (1) of the VAT Directive. This article authorises member states to link the chargeable event and the chargeability of VAT on importation of goods with

ABSTRACT Key words: Axiology, Value of Exchange, Blue Ocean Strategy, Docking Equipment, Key Value Factor, Value Co-Creation, The STACC Value Model Issue of Study: In a typical red ocean - an industry with shrinking margins, overcapacity and decreasing demand - Crawford Solutions has the ambition to become what they call a solution provider. The question arises whether there is a potential for val

Neutralitetskonceptet växte fram under en tid då konflikter mellan länder fortfarande var en regional angelägenhet. Idag har kollektiva säkerhetssystemet i FN-stadgan konverterat dessa konflikter till en global angelägenhet. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka korrelationen mellan neutralitetslagstiftningen och FN-stadgan och hur detta påverkar neutrala stater inom FN. Frågeställningen är i viThe concept of neutrality emerged at a time when conflicts between states were still regional matters. Today the system of collective security within the UN Charter has converted these conflicts into a global issue. The purpose of this essay is to examine the correlation between the law of neutrality and the Charter of the United Nations and how this affects the neutral member states of the Unit

We test asteroseismic radii of Kepler main-sequence and subgiant stars by deriving their parallaxes which are compared with those of the first Gaia data release. We compute radii based on the asteroseismic scaling relations as well as by fitting observed oscillation frequencies to stellar models for a subset of the sample, and test the impact of using effective temperatures from either spectroscop

In this first investigation of the MOCCA database with respect to cataclysmic variables, we found that for models with Kroupa initial distributions, considering the standard value of the efficiency of the common-envelope phase adopted in BSE, no single cataclysmic variable was formed only via binary stellar evolution, i. e., in order to form them, strong dynamical interactions have to take place.

The choice of expressions for the coding probabilities in general, and the escape probability in particular, is of great importance in the family of PPM algorithms. We present a parameterized version of the escape probability estimator which, together with a 'compactness' criterion, provides guidelines for the estimator design given a 'representative' set of files. This parameterization also makes

Background and purpose — Rates of knee replacement (KR) are increasing worldwide. Based on population and practice changes, there are forecasts of a further exponential increase in primary knee replacement through to 2030, and a corresponding increase in revision knee replacement. We used registry data to document changes in KR over the past 15 years, comparing practice changes across Sweden, Aust

Not long ago the rise of monasticism was taken to be the creation of a Sonderwelt – an idea which also seemed to be reflected in the ancient literary material: the desert became a city of its own. However, a contradiction between city and monastery is often bridged by the very literature that created the rift, because texts travelled both ways – just as people did. In the context of this short con

High-quality biosecurity practices are critical to restarting international tourism. Effective market segmentation improves the communication and efficacy of health advice. Travel frequency is an important basis for health-related consumer segmentation, as it is closely related to risk of greater exposure to infectious diseases. Theoretically grounded studies of tourist biosecurity behavior and tr

Debatten om covid-19 fokuserar främst på medicinska områden som smittspridning, antikroppar och vacciner. Men det finns andra aspekter som glöms bort.Våren 2020 rapporterade Interpol att stora mängder förfalskade covid-19- skyddsprodukter av olika slag var i omlopp. Nu ett år senare har den globala illegala spridningen ökat. Det gäller allt från undermåliga ansiktsmasker till sådant som utger sig

This paper discusses which freehand drawing skills a designer needs in the 21st century and why not more people are using sketching as a creative tool. Are design schools teaching the adequate skills needed today? In the past 5-10 years focus has shifted from product design to experience design and the skills needed to make high end drawings might not be needed to the same extent. 3D computational

Protein kinase RNA-activated (PKR) is a cytoplasmic receptor for dsRNA, and as such is involved in detection of viral infection. On binding dsRNA, PKR dimerizes, autophosphorylates, and then phosphorylates its substrate, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit a (eIF2α), causing inhibition of mRNA translation and shutdown of viral protein production. However, active PKR has also been fo

Evaluations of the other culture is a strong force, not only in cultural dialogue but, consequently, in a culture’s formation of itself. Cultures are formed, as it were, in encounters that include domination, conflict, and dismissal as much as appreciation and smooth exchange. In this paper, the construction of cultural identity is discussed, in a study of a Scandinavian Theme Park proposal that w

In the last century, starch present in foods was considered to be completely digested. However, during the 1980s, studies on starch digestion started to show that besides digestible starch, which could be rapidly ors lowly hydrolysed, there was a variable fraction that resisted hydrolysis by digestive enzymes. That fraction was named resistant starch (RS )and it encompasses those forms of starch t

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate our experience with patients affected by ovarian carcinosarcoma. Patients and Methods: During a 16-year period, data on 13 patients with ovarian carcinosarcoma were collected. They were obtained from hospital charts and follow-up visits. Survival curves were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. All tests were t
