Abstract: Sedan 1990-talet finns en till synes motstridig rörelse inom kulturområdet. Dels en tendens att kultursektorn, i dess nuvarande kulturpolitiskt mer traditionella avgränsning, uppfattas som alltmer marginaliserad. Dels att kultur i bredare bemärkelse efterfrågas i allt högre grad och inom allt fler områden. Rörelsen hänger samman med övergripande samhällsförändringar som globaliseringens Since the 1990s, there has been a seemingly contradictory movement in the field of culture. On the one hand, there is a tendency for the cultural sector, in its current cultural-political more traditional demarcation, to be perceived as increasingly marginalized. Secondly, that culture in a broader sense is in increasing demand and in more areas. The movement is connected with overarching societal

The Neptunian satellite system is unusual, comprising Triton, a large (∼2700 km) moon on a close-in, circular, yet retrograde orbit, flanked by Nereid, the largest irregular satellite (∼300 km) on a highly eccentric orbit. Capture origins have been previously suggested for both moons. Here we explore an alternative in situ formation model where the two satellites accreted in the circum-Neptunian d

Under de senaste åren har flera författare granskat de kliniska resultaten av Electro Enhanced Chemotherapy:• Elektrokemoterapi för primär hudcancer och hudmetastas i samband med andra maligniteter (Reinhold, 2011).• Utnyttjande av elektrokemoterapi vid behandling av melanom (Testori et al., 2012).• Antitumörverkan av elektrokemoterapi: En systematisk granskning och meta-analys (Mali et al., 2013)In recent years several authors have reviewed the clinical results of Electro Enhanced Chemotherapy: • Electro-chemotherapy for primary skin cancer and skin metastasis related to other malignancies (Reinhold, 2011). • Utility of electro-chemotherapy in melanoma treatment (Testori et al., 2012).• Antitumor effectiveness of electro-chemotherapy: A systematic review and meta-analysis (Mali et al

Although self-harm is a common behavior and exists in many contexts, previous research on tolerance and attitudes has focused primarily on health care providers. Less is known about tolerance toward self-harm in the general population. To the best of our knowledge, there is currently no scale assessing public tolerance toward self-harm. For this purpose, a brief scale was constructed and tested fo

“People are bloody ignorant apes” (Beckett 1986, 15), says Estragon pacing back and forth under a bare tree in the first act of Beckett’s Waiting for Godot. Regardless of whether this statement is addressed to his unlucky fellow, Vladimir, sitting right by his side, or whether he just blurts it out without any purpose at all, he inadvertently includes two terms in it. Combined, they provoke a ques

The purpose of this thesis is two-fold. Firstly, it is to investigate the notion of belonging in contemporary photography in Turkey and Sweden. Secondly, it aims to contribute to a theoretical approach to contemporary photography that includes its affective, situated and embodied aspects. Engaging is used throughout the thesis as a unifying notion to bring together a range of theoretical perspecti

This entry provides a presentation of different leader-follower perspectives. Traditional leadership research has a psychological orientation and focuses on leaders as persons. Leaders are conceptualized as active communicators and subordinates/followers as more or less passive recipients, which implies a monologic, transmission-oriented view of communication. In recent years, there has been a tur

Solutions for propagating mode III cracks in elastic perfectly-plastic solids are obtained as the limit solutions for infinitesimal crack tip speed and infinitesimal linear strain-hardening. The solution for a perfectly plastic material by Chitaley and McClintock (1971, J. Mech. Phys. Solids 19, 147) is not obtained. A point above or below the crack plane will experience first a centred-fan slip l
