The propositions in this chapter are to a large extent drawn from the thesis Metaphors and norms – understanding copyright law in a digital society (Larsson 2011b), however with some important complements, not least concerning the implications of categorisation. The chapter is explorative in bringing findings from cognitive linguistics into the quite common socio-legal task of studying norms. Its
BACKGROUND: Empirical knowledge around palliative care provision and needs of people with intellectual disabilities is extremely limited, as is the availability of research resources, including expertise and funding. This paper describes a consultation process that sought to develop an agenda for research priorities for palliative care of people with intellectual disabilities in Europe.METHODS: A
Purpose – There is growing concern about the performance of public organizations (POs) in developing countries. Despite the fact that the advantages of innovation and learning orientation to organizations have been evidently documented in Western economies and private owned enterprises, there has been little research into these practices and their impact on enhancing competitive advantages in POs
This project has been an exploration into how sustainability is understood and its challenges framed within design. But the reader undertaking the task of going through this document will find more about carrying in urban transportation which has been the area of application. Probing the underlying assumptions upon which our solutions toward a sustainable future rest, the research identifies
Purpose: To examine how different branding strategies (direct branding, sub-branding, and independent branding) in luxury downward line extensions affect the exclusivity and brand im- age of the parent luxury brand. Design/methodology/approach: This study follows a qualitative approach by conducting semi-structured interviews with 15 respondents. The interviews were based on three luxury brand cas
As concerns grow ever larger about the negative effects of CO2 emissions, the use of hydrogen gas as an alternative to fossil fuels is becoming a more attractive objective. This however, requires practical ways of storing and transporting a highly flammable gas and is generally not compatible with much of the existing infrastructure. One proposed solution to this problem is implementation of liqui
Objectives: This study sets out to answer the following research questions: 1. How do Sida and CEDLA problematize poverty and what does this reveal about their underlying development paradigms? 2. What are some of the key promises and challenges of Sida and CEDLA’s differing understandings of capitalism for their use of the MDPA framework in Bolivia? The key areas of focus are the organizations
Öga för öga, tand för tand är en straffrättslig princip som myntades av kung Hammurabi i Babylonien kring år 1700 före Kristus genom Hammurabis lag. Principen om öga för öga, tand för tand innebär att den som orsakat skada ska lida samma skada. Svensk straffrätt har gått från resonemanget att ”ont ska botas med ont” till straff och skadestånd i pengar och därför finns inte principen om öga för ögaChapter 5 article 2 of the Property Formation Act reads that the person who forfeitsland shall be compensated with land primarily. This means that the principal rule isthat land shall be compensated with land, but when this is not deemed appropriated compensation in money is acceptable. Furthermore, the paragraphmeans that the Surveying Authority (LM) may decide against the land owners wish that c
Geologisk tid är inte bara ett tröskelbegrepp, det är en central del i hur vi erfar geovetenskapliga fenomen som utspelar sig på en rumtids-skala som sträcker sig från mikro (exempelvis molnbildning) till makro (exempelvis plattektonik). Om vi vill förstå geovetenskapliga fenomen måste vi gå från det konkreta till det ab-strakta, vi måste gå från att kunna se och ta på fenomen till att enbart kunnGeologic time is more than a threshold concept, it is a central part of how we experience geoscientific phenomena that takes place on a space and time scale ranging from micro (e.g. cloud formation) to macro (e.g. plate tectonics). If we want to understand earth science phenomena, we must move from the concrete to the ab-stract, we must go from being able to see and touch a phenomenon to being abl
This thesis contributes to growing critical scholarship investigating co-operative housing projects in relation to their wider socio-political and institutional contexts. It goes beyond normative questions of whether co-operative housing projects are sustainable, or not. Instead, it proposes to utilize an empirical case study on an emerging co-operative housing sector in Finland, as a tool to prob
Uppsatsen utgår från komplexiteten som råder kring förmögenhetsbrotten. Möjligheterna för brotten har utvecklats i och med utvecklingen av näringslivet samtidigt som osäkerhetsmarginalerna är stora i brottsstatistiken. Rekvisiten i brottet trolöshet mot huvudman har en särskilt komplicerad uppbyggnad och bedömningen är inte alltid glasklar. Missbruksrekvisitet utgör kärnan i det brottsliga handlanThe background of this thesis stems from the complexity surrounding property crimes. The possibilities for the crimes have developed with the development of the business sector, while the margins of uncertainty are large in the crime statistics. The necessary conditions in the crime of disloyalty to principal are particularly complex and the assessment is not always clear-cut. The requirement of a
Viktigt för rättssäkerheten i Sverige är att ingen ska kunna dömas oskyldig och att medborgare anklagade för brott ska betraktas som oskyldiga till dess att motsatsen bevisats. Misstag sker dock och därför finns regler kring resning i brottmål till förmån för den tilltalade i 58 kap. 2 § Rättegångsbalken (RB). Rättelse kan därmed nås genom att den dömde begär resning och på så sätt får sin dom ompIt is of importance that citizen’s accused of crime is seen as innocent until proven guilty and no one should be innocently convicted. But mistakes happen and therefor there are rules for granting convicted citizens a new trial in 58 kap. 2 § Rättegångsbalken (RB). It is essential in a legal certain society that a verdict which has gained legal force is not easily removed, but as previously menti
Uppsatsen syftar till att söka förståelse till varför tvister mellan fackförbund om vem som ska teckna kollektivavtal uppstår. Arbetsmarknadernas parter är i allmänhet ense om att det som regel bör finnas ett kollektivavtal på varje avtalsområde. Kollektivavtalets speciella rättsverkningar gör det viktigt för fackförbunden att vara avtalspart i ett kollektivavtal. Kollektivavtalet sätter i stor utThe aim of this essay is to seek understanding about why conflicts appear between trade unions regarding which one of them should sign the collective agreement in the workplace. The labour market parties are in general in an agreement that there should only be one applicable collective agreement in every area of work. The unique effects of the collective agreement make it crucial for the trade uni
Context. A long-held vision has been to realize diffraction-limited optical aperture synthesis over kilometer baselines. This will enable imaging of stellar surfaces and their environments, and reveal interacting gas flows in binary systems. An opportunity is now opening up with the large telescope arrays primarily erected for measuring Cherenkov light in air induced by gamma rays. With suitable s
Bragg Coherent Diffraction Imaging (Bragg CDI) is an X-ray imaging technique used to recover the internal strain information of nano-scale crystalline particles. A particle, illuminated by X-ray beams, is rocked along a direction θ and the entire diffraction volume is sampled by a series of 2-D diffraction patterns. From the diffraction volume, the internal structure of the particle can be recover
This work investigates single-sensor localization of acoustic emissions (AEs) along a wind turbine blade with supervised neural networks. We evaluate six architectures: a Dense MLP, a 1D CNN on time-domain inputs, two 2D CNNs on linear spectrograms (LinSpec) and mel-spectrograms (MelSpec), a CRNN (2D CNN + LSTM), and RepVGG (Mini RepVGG in simulation, RepVGG-A0 in experiments). Three experimental
Audiobooks have in recent years become widely popular. The format accordingly impacts how many contemporary readers use and experience literature. The article examines this tendency, departing from Rita Felski’s theoretical conceptualizations of uses of literature (Felski 2008). Felski represents a new attention within literary studies toward the ways in which so-called lay readers use, experience
Late Quaternary glaciations, deglaciations, sea-level changes and aeolian activity have resulted in an abundance of clastic sediments that currently cover the three Baltic States, Northern Europe almost entirely. The chronology for these deposits has largely been established from luminescence dating. This review synthesises 201 luminescence ages obtained between 2011 and 2021 on sediments in the B
