Three empirical questions are posed: what reforms have been undertaken, what effects have they had and how have changes in the organizational environment affected them. The theoretical aim is

Estimating Uncertainty in Time-difference and Doppler Estimates

Sound and radio can be used to estimate the distance between a transmitter and a sender by correlating the emitted and received signal. Alternatively by correlating two received signals it is possible to estimate distance difference. Such methods can be divided into methods that are robust to noise and reverberation, but give limited precision and sub-sample refinements that are sensitive to noiseSound and radio can be used to estimate the distance between a transmitter and a sender by correlating the emitted and received signal.

A Quest for Legitimacy : Debating UN Security Council Rules on Terrorism and Non-proliferation

Popular Abstract in Swedish Efter terroristattackerna den 11 september 2001 har FN:s säkerhetsråd - med USA i spetsen - radikalt utvidgat sina egna befogenheter när det gäller att upprätthålla internationell fred och säkerhet genom att anta resolutioner som i praktiken är lagstiftande. Resolution 1373 (som behandlar terrorism) och resolution 1540 (som behandlar spridning av massförstörelsevapen tiSince the end of the Cold War, international politics and international law have not only become increasingly intertwined, but their mutual implications have also become increasingly recognized by scholars. Yet research explicitly addressing the question of how political factors affect the emergence of legal rules is still limited. This doctoral dissertation aims to take a step in the direction of

Mode och medborgarskap : Hur scouterna och Svenska herrmoderådet samarbetade för att styra ungdomar genom stil under 1950- och 1960-talen

I slutet av 1950-talet inledde Sveriges Scoutförbund utbildningssatsningen Stilskolan vid några av landets industri- och lärlingsskolor. Utbildningen utmynnade i ett samarbete med Svenska herrmoderådet, där organisationerna såg en möjlighet att utbilda ungdomar i frågor som rörde uppträdande och värderingar. I den här artikeln undersöker vi mer specifikt hur Stilskolan sökte väcka intresse bland uIn the late 1950s, Sveriges Scoutförbund (the Swedish Scout Association) launched courses for vocational schools called Stilskolan (lit. ”Style school”).

Tenacious Documents : Exploring the Allure of Documentation in Swedish Compulsory Schools

De svenska utbildningsmyndigheterna står inför ett seglivat problem. Lärare har under många år uttryckt missnöje över alltmer utbredda och genomgripande krav på dokumentation. En hel del dokumentation stjäl tid som annars skulle kunna läggas på elevers lärande och att utveckla undervisningen, lyder klagomålen. Under de senaste 15 åren har olika svenska regeringar försökt åtgärda detta problem, menThe Swedish education authorities are up against a tenacious problem. Teachers have for years expressed dissatisfaction over increasingly prolific and pervasive demands for documentation that hijacks time that could have been invested in pupils’ learning. Over the past 15 years different Swedish governments have sought to remedy this problem but to no avail. The ‘burden of documentation’, as it is

The Lessons of the Gezi Park Protests in Turkey

The mass mobilization and the collective political engagement of the Gezi Park protests of 2013 came as a surprise for many in Turkey. What was new about these large-scale demonstrations was not only the sheer number of people taking place in them (more than 3.5 million), but rather the expansive range of the protesters.This presentation looks into the Gezi events through a research question of Ho

Farewell to peasantry? : (Post)modernising rural Mexico - The case of the ejido peasants in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med avhandlingen är att undersöka bondeskapets (the peasantry)framtida existens. Analysen görs på global nivå, men framför allt på lokal nivå i samband med implikationerna av Mexikos nya jordreform från 1992. Bonden dekonstrueras i ekonomisk-och sociopolitisk aktör för att belysa hans/hennes complexitet. Försörjningsstrategier i tider då staten ersätts av markandThe thesis deals with a classical issue, that of the fate of the peasantry, in particular the process of the transformation of the peasantry. The aim is to explore whether there is a place for the smallholding peasantry in the future, or if the process of dissolution is inevitable. The discussion of this broad question is approached by first deconstructing the peasantry into economic actors and so

Worth its salt? : critical analysis of desalination for drinking water supply on Gotland (Sweden)

Vatten är en livsnödvändig resurs såväl för människor som för miljön. Globalt är vattenresurser under ökad belastning vilket resulterar i vattenbrist lokalt. Skillnaden mellan ökande vattenbehov och den naturliga gränsen för tillgången av sötvatten utmanar myndigheterna att hitta lösningar som uppfyller samhälleliga och ekonomiska intressen utan att äventyra miljöinverkan. Vattenproduktion, flöde Water is an essential resource for humans as well as the environment and water resources globally are under increasing pressure resulting in local conditions of water scarcity. The tension between increasing water demands and the natural limit to freshwater supply challenges authorities to find solutions that fulfil societal demands and economic purposes without compromising environmental integrit
