Hur vi väljer att organisera våra familjer har genomgått en radikal förändring sedan mitten av 1900-talet. Kärnfamiljen är visserligen fortfarande den vanligaste familjeformen, men den har i allt större utsträckning kommit att kompletteras med en rad icke-traditionella familje-konstellationer, bl.a. samkönade familjer. Den här utvecklingen har naturligtvis också påverkat hur vi lever och praktisHow we choose to organize our families has changed significantly since the mid-20th century. It might be true that the nuclear family remains the most common family form. However, it has to an increasing extent been accompanied by a number of non-traditional families, including same-sex families. Naturally, this development has also affected the way we live and how we practice family life. While
Middle and basal Upper Cambrian strata are well exposed in an old quarry at Gudhem in the Falbygden area of Västergötland, south-central Sweden. The exposures consist of finely laminated alum shale with scattered stinkstone (orsten) lenses, up to 2.3 m in diameter. Four sections have been measured and sampled in order to establish the succession of trilobite species. Fossils are generally preserve
South Africa is a water-scarce country that is expected to face challenges regarding freshwater resources in the future. This study aimed to identify the land cover in two different catchments and to analyse the water quality in relation to land cover data. The study shows that GIS and remote sensing can be successfully used as a tool in classifying land cover over time in order to use the results
The use of natural gas is increasing globally. At the same time, the cheap and easily accessible resources are decreasing rapidly. Among other alternative gases, biogas is considered since it is a renewable resource. In order for biogas to really become a large scale alternative, it needs to be fully compatible with today’s infrastructure and gas applications. This report is evaluating the technic
Background: Although cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers and medial temporal lobe atrophy (MTA) contribute to the diagnosis of Alzheimer disease (AD), they may not be specific. Relatively little is known about how they correlate with each other. Purpose: To identify the validity of the radiological linear measurements of brain atrophy in AD diagnosis by examining the correlation with CSF biomarke
Among the formats introduced in Swedish radio in the 1930s, the theatre series about contemporary family life has turned out an exceptional survivor. The first family series, ”Ingenjör Björck med familj” (1936-1943), was followed by 22 related series during the rest of the 20th century, each cultivating its own intimate and ritual based bond with the listeners. The dissertation ”Höra hemma. Familj
The break up of the family unit leads to new living arrangements and significant changes for children. This can be an extremely upsetting experience for a child, especially if the child is old enough to understand what is happening. New living arrangements can effect a childs fundamental sense of security as well as having consequences later on in life. The object of this research paper was to exa
There is an increase of financial integration, which can be seen in recent mergers of banks, financial institutions etc. in the European Union especially in the Nordic countries. However there are some weaknesses in providing consumers cross border services in the sector of banking, such as cross border bank account transfer of payments. The existing transaction costs do not encourage cross border
Despite the increasing significance of foreign investment in the global economy, the extent and intensity of regulation at the multilateral level is disproportionate as compared to that of international trade. Unlike the integrated system established under the World Trade Organization, the governance of international investment is highly fragmented, encompassing an amalgamation of customary intern
This master’s thesis in Library and Information Science concerns the relationship between librarians and users, and focuses on how it is constructed in scholarly articles about Library 2.0. The study analyses 40 articles concerning Library 2.0 and the questions asked are: ”How is the relationship between librarians and users constructed?”; ”Which discourses can be identified in the articles and ho
De senaste 100 åren har den globala medeltemperaturen ökat i genomsnitt 0,74 grader, vilket medför stora effekter för såväl människor som djur och natur. En av de största konsekvenserna till den globala uppvärmningen är att den stigande havsnivån blir allt mer påtaglig världen över. Glaciärer och inlandsisar har börjat smälta allt mer, där avsmältningen medför en global ökning i havsnivån. HavsnivThe rising sea level is becoming more evident around the world as less as well as more developed countries are starting to fully comprehend the consequenses. It is also generally accepted that the sea level rise is accelerated by human-induced global warming. Glaciers and ice sheets are melting more and more, which together with temperature induced thermal expansion of the seas which leads to a gl
This thesis, “Die Wiedergabe der Wirklichkeit” (“The Reported Reality”), explores from a contrastive perspective what linguistic strategies serious German and Swedish newspapers use in different text genres as they report from reality. Two German – die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung and die Süddeutsche Zeitung – and two Swedish newspapers – Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet – are studied. For e
In this contribution, a micro-mechanically motivated, energy relaxation-based constitutive model for phase transformation, martensite reorientation and twin formation in shape memory alloys is proposed. The formulation builds on an idealized parametrization of the austenite-twinned martensite microstructure through first- and second-order laminates. To estimate the effective rank-one convex energy
Background: Voluntary self-exclusion from gambling is a common harm reduction tool in individuals with a gambling disorder. Previous data have demonstrated that many gamblers breach their own self-exclusion, typically through other online services outside the jurisdiction in which they are self-excluded. The present study aimed to carry out a new follow-up measure—similar to previous studies in th
Problem definition: In the Swedish construction projects, there is a role "logistics manager" whose assignment is to manage the logistics at the production site. Exactly how and which logistic related tasks they perform is uncertain. The study’s aim is to find some general patterns and methods that are used by the role holders.
Purpose: The study aims to contribute to t
This thesis is essentially a political jurisprudential case study of two labor disputes and their judicial aftermaths. The two cases studied are the highly publicized Laval and Viking cases, and the theoretical model employed is Alec Stone Sweet's model on judicialization and the construction of governance. The paper is made up of six sections. After the introductory section, I introduce the r
