This thesis has two aims. One is to situate COVID-19 in a macro narrative that characterizes our time as a risk society or reflexive modernization. The other is to bring public health emergencies such as the COVID-19 pandemic into the sharp focus of cultural trauma study which is closely related to media representations. The research scope is set in media and communication studies. Through the the

This book is a contribution to the discussion about religion in contemporary Western society, characterized by the privatization of religion. The concept religion is not easily operational and does not carry meaning or implications that remain valid or consistent over time. It must be re-substantiated in order to remain descriptive and operational. This book’s ambition is to explore a means of re-

Popular AbstractAvsikten med denna avhandling är att utveckla en teori om de försvårade villkor som män ur arbetarklassen och den lägre medelklassen upplevt i Ronneby sedan början av 1900-talet; om hur traditionen att snabbt komma ut i arbetslivet — som bland män i Ronneby i det närmaste har varit likvärdigt med att bli vuxen — ersatts av ett behov att senarelägga vuxenblivandet. Bakgrunden är attThe place is Ronneby, a smallish town in southern Sweden. My subjects are working class and lower middle class men in Ronneby, men who — since the beginning of the century — have encountered changing conditions for reaching adulthood. In this dissertation, I will analyse these changing and increasingly difficult conditions and try to explain how the tradition of starting to work early in life, and

What we can conclude from this study is that the state and the market are not perfect substitutes in allocating resources and sustaining economic development separately. The case of the Thai cassava industry seems to suggest that the Thai state is not benevolent, but predatory in nature. The central point is that the Thai state cannot be simply seen as weak and predatory without understanding the

Alla kvinnor i Sverige har rätt till ett liv fritt från könsbaserat våld i nära relation. Sedan början av 1990-talet har den svenska staten sett det som ett prioriterat jämställdhetsmål att utrota allt könsbaserat våld för att uppnå full jämställdhet mellan könen. Dock finns det en grupp med kvinnor som tvingas välja mellan att stå ut med våld i nära relation eller att bli utvisad. Flertalet rappoAll women in Sweden have the right to a life free from gender-based violence in close relationships. Since the early 1990s, the Swedish government sees the goal to eradicate all gender-based violence as a priority, to achieve full equality between the sexes. However, there is a group of women who are forced to choose between putting up with domestic violence or being deported. Several reports from

This thesis aims to describe and examine the democratic deficit critique and the problems with democratic legitimacy in the EU's supranational system of governance. It specially addresses the role of the European Parliament and the national parliaments in the EU decision-making procedures. As parliaments traditionally, in liberal democracy theories, are considered strongholds and symbols of de

Temporary agency work has come to the fore during recent years as the phenomenon in itself has become more frequent on many national labour markets. This thesis examines how, by means of labour law and collective bargaining, the balance between, on the one hand, the employers’ need for flexibility, and on the other hand, the work-force’s need for stability and continuity in the form of income and

Background: The epidemic of Alzheimer's disease (AD) represents a significant challenge for the health care and social service systems of many developed countries. AD affects both patients and family caregivers, on whom the main burden of care falls, putting them at higher risk of stress, anxiety, mortality and lower quality of life. Evidence remains controversial concerning the effectiveness of p

Improving energy performance in the Swedish multifamily building stock is an important undertaking in order to reach national and international targets for energy efficiency. However, growing economic inequalities in Sweden, manifested in the multifamily building stock as housing inequalities that entail segregation, overcrowding, and differences in standard of living, have led to low-income house

Social monitoring of the actions of group members is thought to be a key development associated with group living. Humans constantly monitor the behaviour of others and respond to them in a flexible way depending on past interactions and the current social context. While other primates have also been reported to change their behaviour towards other group members flexibly based on the current state

This PhD thesis deals with anthropomorphic images from the Vendel and Viking Ages, their contexts and functions. The images are seen as means of communication with “effective power” or agency ("Wirkmächtigkeit"). They could have had a relationship of interaction or partial identity with what was represented, due to the fact that the Vendel and Viking Age societies were largely based on oral tradit

Popular Abstract in Swedish Populära tidskrifter och flertalet debattörer har alltsedan 80-talet hävdat att privatisering leder automatiskt till en förbättring av företagets effektivitet. På grund av dessa diskussioner har man litat mycket på marknadskrafter, då man trott att dessa krafter kan ombilda organisationer med goda effekter. Avhandlingen är en kritik mot dessa ansatser. Författaren försöThe majority of research on privatisation has been driven by, inter alia, economics. Some economists have argued that private ownership introduces capital market pressures into inefficient state bureaucracies. Private property rights are expected to maximise the incentives for management to achieve a high level of production efficiency. The argument put forward in this research is that in so far a

This article discusses why films have not been used more than they have as historical sources and argues that films ought to be used more by historians. Principally, historians can use film in three basic ways, all of which give access to information about the period when it was produced. First, films can with caution be used for information about the persons, objects and events depicted in docum

Abstract in ItalianUn’accesa e radicale tensione nelle scienze cognitive è quella tra il cognitivismo e il cosiddetto approccio delle quattro E (Embodied, Enactive, Embedded e Extended). La mancanza di una riflessione aperta e sostanziale sul lavoro teorico ed empirico proposto dall’approccio opposto appare problematica da entrambe le parti. Il presente contributo analizza a fondo le evidenze empiIn philosophy and cognitive science, the tension between cognitivism and the 4E-Cognition approach is both deep and polarizing. A lack of serious engagement with the theoretical and empirical work generated by the opposing framework seems problematic on both sides. In this paper, we closely discuss data on early socio-cognitive development produced by an influential nativist current of thought in

This article focuses on young unemployed in Sweden involved in two activation measures. Using the analytical framework of governmentality, it analyses how the participants perceive and value activation measures as government-driven intervention aimed at bringing young people into the labour market, based on a neoliberal discourse in the welfare state. The article highlights that the welfare system

Pain is a significant health concern for children living with cerebral palsy (CP). There are no population-level or large-scale multi-national datasets using common measures characterizing pain experience and interference (ie, pain burden) and management practices for children with CP. The aim of the CPPain survey is to generate a comprehensive understanding of pain burden and current management o

Birds and mammals show remarkable convergence in their neurocognition and thermal physiology despite being phylogenetically separated for 325 million years of evolution. This elaboration in neurocognition is hypothesised to be directed at increasing the caloric intake through efficient foraging to power tachymetabolic endothermy. To gain a better understanding of how and why cognitive abilities ev

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory joint disease that affects all aspects of life. Rheumatology care strives to achieve optimal health based on person-centred care (PCC). Effective treatment is available, but patients still experience unmet needs.Aims: The overall aim of this thesis was to explore patients' perspectives of PCC and preferred outcomes in early RA.
