The Phoenicians were the dominant traders in the Mediterranean Sea two thousand to three thousand years ago and expanded from their homeland in the Levant to establish colonies and trading posts throughout the Mediterranean, but then they disappeared from history. We wished to identify their male genetic traces in modern populations. Therefore, we chose Phoenician-influenced sites on the basis of

Few other social technologies and institutions are more consequential to human societies than money. Yet money remains a deeply perplexing phenomenon. On the one hand, it is a pan-human system of valuation, but on the other, it is conventional and variable in its uses. While it is controversial if money instantiates a fully-fledged sign system, it is rife with semiotic capacities. To present an il

Staters immunitet i fall som rör grova kränkningar av mänskliga rättigheter har blivit flitigt omdiskuterad i den folkrättsliga debatten, och har gett upphov till motstridiga domar bland olika nationella domstolar. Medan grova kränkningar av mänskliga rättigheter utgör brott mot tvingande folkrättsliga regler, jus cogens, från vilka inga avsteg är tillåtna, så utgör reglerna om statsimmunitet ett The jurisdictional immunity of states in cases concerning serious human rights violations has been extensively discussed in the international legal debate, and has given rise to conflicting judicial decisions by courts of various jurisdictions. While serious human rights violations constitute breaches of peremptory norms, jus cogens, from which no derogation is permitted, the law of state immunity

It is told that there are 366 instances of different forms of ”do not be afraid” in the Bible, one for every day of the year including leap years. It sounds like a nice thought; however, proving it would probably require a lot of time. Nevertheless, fear is a recurring topic in the Bible and can be interpreted in many different ways. The Bible is with no doubt a huge source of knowledge for Christ

This thesis is devoted to competition law aspects of parallel trade regulation in the European Union. The long line of case law of the European Court of Justice and the European Commission reflects the changes of the approaches towards the problem of parallel trade restrictions, where the very first cases establish the fundamental framework and policies for development of the internal market throu

Popular Abstract in Swedish Studien behandlar bibelbruket i den grekiska systematiska samlingen av Apophthegmata Patrum ( kenfädernas tänkespråk). Efter en inledande genomgång av tidigare forskning på biblebruk i allmänhet och det i tänkespråken i synnerhet formuleras undersökningens syfte så: att beskriva hur bibeltexten kontextualiseras, dvs. hur texten infogas i den undervisning och de ideal so

This doctoral dissertation investigates how Plato elaborates and incorporates the works of the poets in the preludes to the laws. It is argued that the poetic style of the preludes represents a key element for the Athenian’s purpose of persuading the citizens of Magnesia to spontaneously abide to the new legislation that is being laid out.The analysis is divided in four chapters. Chapter 1 discuss

Popular Abstract in SwedishEtt väl etablerat fynd inom personbedömningsforskning är att vi människor bedömer varandra på ett mer nyanserat sätt än enbart en endimensionell skala (bra-dålig). Istället använder vi oss av två grundläggande dimensioner för personbedömningar. Den första dimensionen (värme) ger oss svaret på andra människors avsikter (t.ex. vänligt eller fientligt inställda till oss). DIt is well established that we do not judge other people on a one-dimensional scale (i.e., good - bad), but rather based on two fundamental dimensions. The first dimension is warmth, which essentially answers the questions of what the other person’s intentions are (e.g., friendly or malicious). The second dimension is competence, which in contrast answers the question regarding the person’s capabi

As humanity faces multiple mutually-reinforcing social-ecological crises, rhetoric on transformations abounds. However, transformations are normative, politically-contested processes that risk perpetuating, or even exacerbating, the ecological and socio-economic crises of today. We argue that transformations should seek to enhance human and non-human well-being within the planetary boundaries; a g

Many items of culture which are conveyed from one culture to another may take verbal form, and then constitute what Jakobson called "translation proper." If such diffusions involve a co-occurrent change of semiotic systems, they are of such a different nature, that we better reserve another term for it: transposition. Whether or not accompanied by transpositions, such as pictures, translational ev

Den här artikeln granskar subskriptionerne på Markusevangeliet i 157 grekiska handskrifter, och noterar deras gradvisa utveckling från att vara identisk med titeln i den tidigaste fasen till att bli mer och mer utarbetad och betydelsefull för tolkningshistorien. Tidigt, vilket återspeglas i titeln, förknippades det andra evangeliet med Markus, känd för att vara Petrus lärjunge och tolk. Under det

In January of 2022, I made an installation event at Rönnells. I set larger speakers up on the balcony, and played three of the large-scale multi-channel compositions from this project– Skogen är bäst på bild, Vädersolsmodernitet and Vart ska dom ta vägen nu?–at a very much lowered volume. I made them hoping they could function both as concert pieces and as installations. The event at Rönnels prove

Ionin, Ko and Wexler (2004a) have shown that L2 speakers of English whose L1’s lack articles (Russian and Korean) appear to fluctuate in their interpretation of the and a, allowing them to encode either definiteness or specificity. They argue that these are two options of an Article Choice Parameter offered by Universal Grammar, and that the Russian and Korean speakers fluctuate between them when

A co-ordinated series of field experiments were conducted to consider the effects of elevated UV-B radiation applied directly to decomposing plant litter. Betula pubescens was decomposed under ambient and elevated UV-B (simulating a 15% ozone depletion) using outdoor irradiation facilities at Adventdalen, Norway (78° N), Abisko, Sweden (68° N), Amsterdam, The Netherlands (52° N,) and Patras, Greec

Objectives: High quality nutrition and medical nutrition therapy in long-term care (LTC) settings are essential to overcome malnutrition and ensure a better quality of life. Heterogenous and often insufficient regulations contribute to a disparity in nutritional practices across Europe. The aim of the study was to gather information on nutrition-related regulations and practices, as well as establ
