The aim of this essay is to examine the relationship between the European Commission and civil by focusing on the issue of legitimacy. This study takes a critical stand towards the prevailing view in the debate on the EU’s democratic deficit. This view that centers on that EU institutions, like national parliaments and governments, derive most of their legitimacy from public input, so-called input

The practice of forcing a person to perform work without his or her consent and the denial of freedom to leave work has been part of human history for centuries. Despite great effort by the international community to combat forced labour, this scourge is still a prevalent practice in both developed and developing countries, with old as well as new forms of coercion being carried out every day. Mil

Utifrån en mediedebatt om Mixed Martial Arts (MMA)ii år 2009-2010, har syftet varit att undersöka hur MMA representerats i svensk media, vilka vetenskapliga antaganden som haft företräde i texterna samt hur de har bidragit till betraktelsesätt av MMA i det svenska samhället. Resultatet visar att MMA-debatten är knuten till de teoretiska utgångspunkterna i processen för moralpanik (Cohen 2002). De

Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common atria[ arrhythmia, has a complex aetiology and causes relevant morbidity and mortality due to different mechanisms, including but not limited to stroke, heart failure, and tachy- or bradyarrhythmia. Current therapeutic options (rate control, rhythm control, antithrombotic therapy, 'upstream therapy') only prevent a part of this burden of disease. New treat

BACKGROUND: The character higher order scales (self-directedness, cooperativeness, and self-transcendence) in the temperament and character inventory are important general measures of health and well-being [Mens Sana Monograph 11:16-24 (2013)]. Recent research has found suggestive evidence of common environmental influence on the development of these character traits during adolescence. The pres

The integrated dynamic ecosystem model ForSAFE-VEG was used to estimate critical loads for nitrogen using different chemical and biological criteria, and attempting to account for possible effects of climate change. The study is based on a model application on sites used for critical loads assessments in Sweden and France, focusing on the ecological effect of nitrogen pollution. To assess critical

This overview focusses on the ubiquitous presence of immunohistochemically visible peptidergic nerves with vasodilatory function. The nerve fibres are primarily related to the parasympathetic system (vasoactive intestinal polypeptide or VIP), the sympathetic system including the adrenal medulla (enkephalins) and to the sensory system (substance P as well as calcitonin gene-related peptide, CGRP).

Den 11 januari 2007 blev Vietnam medlem i WTO. Ett krav för medlemskap i världshandelsorganisationen är antagande av TRIPS, ett multilateralt avtal vars syfte är att erbjuda effektivt och adekvat skydd för immateriella rättigheter, för att på så sätt minimera hindren för global handel och främja internationell konkurrens. Efter Vietnams inträde i WTO var förhoppningen att andelen piratkopierade vaOn January 11, 2007, Vietnam joined the WTO. A requirement for joining the WTO is the adoption of TRIPs, a multilateral agreement whose purpose is to provide effective and adequate protection for intellectual property rights, in order to minimize obstacles to international trade and promote global competition. After joining the WTO, hopes were high that Vietnam’s copyright piracy would rapidly dec

The objectives of this thesis are to find a common ground for business and environmental interests and to evaluate the potential of Environmental Management Systems (EMSs) as transition tools to lead towards a greener economic paradigm. For these purposes it was assessed, which implications EMSs have for the competitiveness of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) within the first three years

Media har tidigare konsumerats genom tv, bio, hyrfilm radio osv. Konsumenten har fått köpa film och musik i butik eller titta på tv och lyssna på radio. Med Internets framfart har denna traditionella mediakonsumption fått konkurens. I dag konsumeras media alltmer via internet genom playtjänster och liknande mediastreamingtjänster. Studiens syfte är att bidra med kunskap om kritiska framgångsfaktor

Life on Earth was sharply disrupted 66 Ma ago as an asteroid hit the sea-floor in what is today Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. Approximately 600 km(3) of sedimentary rock were vapourized, ejected into the atmosphere and subsequently deposited globally as an ejecta apron and fallout layer. Proximal ejecta deposits occur in Belize and southern Mexico where the so called Albion island spheroid bed is sup

The modern medical treatment of HIV with antiretroviral therapy (ART) has drastically reduced the morbidity and mortality in patients infected with this virus. ART has also been shown to reduce the transmission risk from individual patients as well as the spread of the infection at the population level. This position statement from the Public Health Agency of Sweden and the Swedish Reference Group

A search for a new resonance decaying to a W or Z boson and a Higgs boson in the [Formula: see text] final states is performed using 20.3 fb[Formula: see text] of pp collision data recorded at [Formula: see text] 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. The search is conducted by examining the WH / ZH invariant mass distribution for a localized excess. No significant deviation f

Purpose: In the last decade, the research community has focused on defining reliable biomarkers for the early detection of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology. In 2017, the Geneva AD Biomarker Roadmap Initiative adapted a framework for the systematic validation of oncological biomarkers to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) AD biomarkers—encompassing the 42 amino-acid isoform of amyloid-β (Aβ42), phosphoryl

Many people do not act together against climate change or social inequalities because they feel they or their group cannot make a difference. Understanding how people come to feel that they can achieve something (a perception of self-efficacy) is therefore crucial for motivating people to act together for a better world. However, it is difficult to summarize already existing self-efficacy resear
