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

Denna uppsats syftar till att diskutera den rasism som sägs blomstra i Europa, och mer specifikt i Sverige, idag. Detta görs genom att undersöka Sverigedemokraternas principprogram som antogs 2011. Den metod som används för att analysera programmet är en teoribaserad innehållsanalys. Teorin som används för analysen är den definition av rasism som görs av George M. Fredrickson och som presenteras iThis essay aims to discuss the racism that is said to flourish in Europe, and more specifically in Sweden, today. This is done by examining the Sweden Democrats' policy program adopted in 2011. The method used to analyze the document is a theory-based content analysis. The theory used for the analysis is the definiton of racism done by George M. Fredrickson as it is presented in his book "

Virtual communities, including communities dedicated to consumption practices, were named one of the rising modern trends. With the technological development, nowadays, people do not need actual locations to meet for being friends because multiple blooming social networks allow people to stay connected 24/7 no matter where they are in this world. This technological development has many positive ef

Jus cogens norms and obligations erga omnes are concepts within international law that are often used to reinforce legal claims. This thesis aims to assess to what extent invoking these concepts, along with their reinforcing capabilities, is justified in specific cases. In order to achieve this, the thesis first gives an overview of the theoretical debate surrounding the concepts of jus cogens no

T cell recognition of the type II collagen (CII) 260-270 peptide is a bottleneck for the development of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA), an animal model of rheumatoid arthritis. We have earlier made C3H.Q mice expressing CII with glutamic acid instead of aspartic acid at position 266 (the MMC-C3H.Q mouse), similar to the rat and human CII epitope, which increases binding to MHC class II and leads

By measuring excited state and charge dynamics in blends of an alternating polyfluorene copolymer and fullerene derivative over nine orders in time and two orders in light intensity, we have monitored the light-induced processes from ultrafast charge photogeneration to much slower decay of charges by recombination. We find that at low light intensities relevant to solar cell operation relatively f

Electron injection from the transition metal complex Ru(dcbpy)(2)(NCS)(2) (dcbpy = 2,2'-bipyridine-4,4'-dicarboxylate) into a titanium dioxide nanoparticle film occurs along two pathways. The dominating part of the electron injection proceeds from the initially excited singlet state of the sensitizer into the conduction band of the semiconductor on the sub-hundred-femtosecond time scale. The slowe

PURPOSE: The purpose of this research project is to further advance theory on management of product development by providing insights on customer orientations. The study contributes to the literature by bringing in Actor-Network Theory (ANT) as a new perspective to theorize the process of translations between customer orientation and engineering orientation within product development. RELEVANCE:

Purpose: Consumers are forming deep love relationships with brands to a degree that involves the incorporation of the brand’s symbolic attributes to their own self-concept. However, though deep, these bonds are not indestructible. With that said, this thesis aims to investigate the consumer-brand love relationship with specific regard to the dissolution of these deep bonds. Methodology: In-depth s

Mexico, the second largest economy in Latin America, has almost eradicated extreme poverty according to the Millennium Development Goals; however, official statistics show that by national standards poverty levels are still quite high, reaching up to half its population. This paper looks into how the determinants of poverty in Mexico have evolved after the last major economic crisis the country ex

Through different blogs, social medias and apps people are sharing pictures like never before. Sales in expensive DSLR cameras have increased, and companies in the photo industry are providing customers with lessons to help them in their quest to become better photographers. From being just an object symbol of tourism it has evolved into becoming a lifestyle for many photography enthusiasts. This

Doppler-free saturation spectroscopy in the regime of strong pumping intensities and optically thick atomic samples is investigated experimentally and theoretically. It is shown that a very high signal-to-background ratio can be obtained and, at the same time, subnatural linewidths can be reached. Further contrast and linewidth improvements can be attained by supplementing the primary depleted pum

Popular Abstract in Swedish Att fortsätta leva på mitt sätt. Medelålders kvinnor och menopaus/klimakteriet. Varje år passerar cirka 65 000 svenska kvinnor sin menopaus. Menopaus är en medicinsk term och avser tidpunkten för en kvinnas sista menstruation. Tidpunkten för menopaus kan därför i regel endast avgöras i efterhand, vanligtvis först efter ett års uppehåll av de naturliga menstruationernaTo deepen the understanding of menopause and its role in women's lives is the general aim of this thesis. Between 1995 and 2003, all women in two Swedish primary health care districts received a postal questionnaire, when they were 45, 50, 55 or 60. A total of 1681 women (76%) responded. Twenty-four women were given research interviews. The effects of menopause on quality of life (QoL) and number

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen diskuterar den sakramentala kyrkosynen hos den franske, romersk-katolske, teologen Henri de Lubac (1896-1991). Utgångpunkt är hans formulering (i ?Catholicisme? 1938): ?Om Kristus är Guds Sakrament, så är Kyrkan för oss Kristi sakrament. Hon (kyrkan) re-presenterar honom (Kristus), med detta ords hela urgamla kraft: hon gör honom i sanning närvarande.? ForThe thesis provides a discussion of the ecclesiology of the French Roman-Catholic theologian Henri de Lubac SJ (1896-1991) by showing how this is determined by his method of fundamental theology. I establish the term ?fundamental ecclesiology? for this inter-dependance of form and content, subject and object in theology; this is why his ecclesiology is sacramental in structure. I primarily use tex

An analysis of Swedish-Spanish Gothicism and the impacts of these ideas

Haptoglobin phenotypes have been shown in human medicine to be related to the prevalence of various diseases. Furthermore, abnormal glycosylation of haptoglobin has been reported as a consequence of liver disease, cancer and immunological disorders in man. To our knowledge, similar findings have not, so far, been reported in canine disease. The present paper describes a method for investigation of
