This study in contemporary history describes the transformation of the public sphere in Sweden during the period 1969-1999, and analyses the role of information technology and politics in the process. The overall aim of the study is to explain how, and why, the public sphere in Jürgen Habermas sense has deteriorated during a period of rapid technological and political change, when increasing atten
Epitaxial III-V nanowhiskers have been grown with orientation in the [111]B and [100] directions. While the nature of the crystal structure in the (111)B type of whiskers varies more or less at random between hexagonal (wurtzite) and cubic (zincblende) structure, the (100) type whiskers are of single crystal zincblende structure. We show that the bounding surface facets of the whiskers are either
A swirl stabilized flame has been studied numerically using Large Eddy Simulation. The response of the flame to a large swirl number modulation has as been determined. Decreasing the swirl number moderately does not destabilize the flame. Decreasing further the swirl number induces a transition from stabilized to a jet flame with increase in the flame fluctuations. Increasing back the swirl restor
Foreign direct investment has been of large importance in economic growth and global economic integration over the last decades. South East Asia has been part of this development with rapidly increasing inflows of FDI. However, there are large variations over time and between countries in the region as regard to the policies towards FDI, and in actual inflows of FDI. This chapter aims at examining

The people bordering the Arabian Gulf, the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea rely more and more on seawater desalination for safe water supply. Desalination has advantages and disadvantages which to a large extent depend on the region, location, technology, impact and amount of fresh water production. In this region, some 60% of all desalination capacity is installed. The three regions areas repre
Popular Abstract in Swedish I Fornstora dagar, moderna tider är perspektivet vidare än i traditionellt historiografiska studier. De bruk och debatter som analyseras begränsas inte till de historievetenskapliga historieprodukterna. Studien visar att kring sekelskiftet 1900 dominerade det nationalistiska historiebruket. Under mellankrigstiden var såväl traditionella som moderna perspektiv väl represThe aim of the study is to investigate uses of and debates on Swedish history during a period of 100 years. The perspective is broader than the traditional study of history, since it supplements the search for new facts, contexts and interpretations by which meaning is ascribed the the past by different producers and consumers of history in society. The dominating use of history around 1900 was id
Popular Abstract in Swedish Fysiologiska och kliniska aspekter på förändrad kapillärpermeabilitet Graden av genomsläpplighet (permeabilitet) i de minsta blodkärlen (kapillärerna), där utbytet av näringsämnen och slaggprodukter sker, är avgörande för att kroppens celler skall fungera. I den svåraste fasen av sjukdomar såsom blodförgiftning (sepsis) och efter trauma är permeabiliteten ökad varvid plMicrovascular permeability is important for exchange of fluids and proteins in health and in disease. Permeability increases in critical illness, such as during sepsis/SIRS and after trauma, and may be affected by drugs. Increased permeability causes oedema and hypovolaemia. Hypovolaemia is treated with fluids, and their efficacy is determined by their intravascular retention, also influenced by t

Normalt sett föreställer man sig att det finns ett samband mellan ord och handling. Det skulle betyda att människor som säger sig vara miljöengagerade också tar miljöhänsyn i vardagslivets handlingar. Man kan emellertid konstatera att vägen från ord till handling är kantad av många slags överväganden som leder till skillnader mellan det man säger sig tycka och vad man sedan gör. Mellan attityd och
