This study aims to analyze the gender representation of experts in the local newspaper Sydsvenskan during the covid pandemic. Furthermore, this study seeks to gain insights about the results of the processes that determine who is interviewed as an expert during a crisis situation such as the covid pandemic. A total of 369 articles were examined during the period from 1 May 2021 to 31 October 2021

This study describes and discusses the founding of the Regional Archives (landsarkiv) in Sweden. My main focus is to examine to what extent the nationalist movement and the construction of the nation state underlay the founding of the Regional Archives and how it affected the development of the archives. Sweden has seven regional archives. The first, Vadstena Regional Archive, was founded in 1899

The aim of this study is to identify which types of international pressures can be found in Georgia’s democratization process and to understand how international pressures and external factors promote democratization of Georgia, using a theory-testing process tracing method. An analytical framework consisting of four types international pressures; contagion, control, consent, and conditionality is

The national day of Australia is Australia Day; a contentious public holiday that sparks a national debate on identity and multiculturalism every year. There are many different narratives that make up the Australian story, which encapsulates Australia’s diverse and multicultural history. Media plays a pivotal role in the representation of the national narrative; however, evidence of systemic power

The centre of analysis in this research has been the new welfare legislation in Sweden 2013 granting children residing in the country without a permit tuition free and legal access to the Swedish educational system. Methodological triangulation has been used were a quantitative analysis has been made involving efforts taken to identify the number of children in the municipalities of Sweden having

The thesis argues that systemic banking crises and inequality go hand in hand, with inequality in front. Through showing how factors commonly found to influence banking crises, such as household and business debt levels, asset prices, default ratios, and credit growth (all important in Minsky-type bubbles) theoretically can be attributed to decreasing relative wages of households, and/or concentra

Collaborative governance is an approach used by governments to create policies in an equitable manner through the consensus seeking decision-making process via the collaboration of stakeholders that will be affected by the solution. However, one of the many critiques of this approach is that there are power imbalances between those involved, that instead make the outcome inequitable. Collaborative

Mitt syfte med denna uppsats är att synliggöra problematiska maktrelationer som föreligger till synes neutralt framställda inom viljediskursen. Jag diskuterar hur SOU 2016:60, det vill säga förarbetena till Samtyckeslagen, diskursivt framställer rättsskyddssubjektet, samt hur denna konstruktion kan ses som en begränsning gentemot kvinnan. För att uppnå detta brukar jag en foucauldiansk diskursanal

This study investigates how early exposure to maternal mental distress shapes offspring’s long‐ term socioeconomic pathways by leveraging the 1970 British Cohort Study. Maternal distress was measured when the cohort members were aged 5, 10, and 16 years via the 24-item Malaise Inventory. Structural Equation Modeling is employed to estimate (1) the direct effect of maternal malaise on offspring’s a

A hybrid catalyst consisting of Zr-doped mesoporous silica (Zr-SBA-15) supports with intergrown Cu nanoparticles was used to study the effects of a catalyst’s chemical states on CO2 hydrogenation. The chemical state of the catalyst was altered by using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) or sodium metasilicate (SMS) as the silica precursor in the synthesis of the Zr-SBA-15 framework, and infiltration A hybrid catalyst consisting of Zr-doped mesoporous silica (Zr-SBA-15) supports with intergrown Cu nanoparticles was used to study the effects of a catalyst’s chemical states on CO2 hydrogenation.

Three different models (STEP–GENDEC–NOflux, Zhang2010, and Surfatm) are used to simulateNO, CO2, and NH3 fluxes at the daily scale for 2 years(2012–2013) in a semi-arid grazed ecosystem at Dahra(152401000 N, 152505600W, Senegal, Sahel).

The current state of the water and sanitation sector has put water­related innovations high on the global policy agenda. However, the systemic complexity that typically surrounds such contexts call for actionable knowledge of how to enable and orchestrate innovative solutions by connecting different players via organized networks.

Teaching history in multicultural societies – Case study Malmo (Sweden) German Minister of Education and Research, Annette Schavan recently presented a proposal concerning a common European History Book. According to Deutsche Welle she underlined that “education is essential for shaping identity and for social cohesion in Europe”. Therefore it is possible to conclude that the content of history a

Global greenhouse gas emissions from air travel (GHG-A) are on the rise, and projections point towards a rapid growth in the coming decades. This study aims to examine how local government (cities), addresses GHG-A in their Sustainable Energy Action Plans (SEAP). To fulfil this aim, over 200 SEAPs were analysed focusing on three issues: (1) Treatment of GHG-A in local emissions inventories; (2) PoGlobal greenhouse gas emissions from air travel (GHG-A) are on the rise, and projections point towards a rapid growth in the coming decades.

Purpose: To address the systematic bias in whole-brain dual flip angle (DFA) T1-mapping at 7T by optimizing the flip angle pair and carefully selecting RF pulse shape and duration. Theory and Methods: Spoiled gradient echoes can be used to estimate whole-brain maps of T1. This can be accomplished by using only two acquisitions with different flip angles, i.e., a DFA-based approach. Although DFA-ba
