Fake canonizations are prevalent in the former communist countries wherein arts and culture in general may still function as propaganda weaponry at the hands of the sponsoring state. The public is almost eliminated from the process of canonization, as the publishing houses, art galleries, and cultural industries seldom survive and flourish from sales to a real public. As a rule, their rarefied pub

Augusti. De första tecknen på höst smattrar mot rutorna när samtalet kommer. Iris kusin Ingrid är desperat, systerdottern Alva har inte återvänt från paddelturen med vännerna. När Iris inser att det finns paralleller till något hon och kusinen själva upplevde i tonåren kör hon raka spåret upp till Åmål för att hjälpa till att leta. Sökandet utvecklar sig snart till en utdragen katt-och-råtta-lek i

Over the past decade an increase in labour taxation reforms have been observed across several countries. The main target of these reforms has generally been to encourage labour supply among different groups. In the case of Sweden, an earned income tax credit was introduced in 2007 and reinforced in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 as a measure to deal with the high unemployment level. The relationship be

This work focuses on observers estimating flux linkage and speed for induction machines, mainly in the low speed region. With speed estimation, sensorless control is possible, meaning that the speed of induction machines without mechanical speed sensors can be controlled. The observer based sensorless drive system has superior dynamic performance compared to a system with an open loop frequency in

The anatomy of the cetrarioid lichens (Parmeliaceae) has been studied, and the taxonomy revised. Special attention has been paid to reproductive structures, in particular the asci and pycnoconidia. Two types of asci are recognized. The Cetraria type is narrowly clavate, bears an amyloid ring structure in the tholus, and has a small axial body. The Lecanora type, specifically the Melanelia form, is

Study of landscape in some early Bergman films. The feneral idea is that Bergman used dramatic settings to enhance the angst of the characters.

The ECL cells constitute the predominant endocrine cell population of the stomach. They secrete histamine which is a major stimulator of acid secretion. Chormogranin A (CgA)-derived peptides, such as pancreastatin, are co-secreted with histamine. In this thesis it was demonstrated that pancreastatin may serve as a reliable marker for ECL cell secretory activity in the rat. The function of pancreas

A semiotic analysis of the collection of works by Elis Eriksson at Norrköping museum of art.

Study of anti-modern ideology in Bergman's films.

The thesis addresses the nature of causation. It is argued that causation exists and is as local as its causes and effects. As a consequence, the position advocated is contrary to the as yet prevailing view that no 'causal tie' between cause and effect exists. Moreover, it is suggested that this tie can be perceived. The essay attempts to elucidate the nature of causes, effects, and causal mechani
