Swedish archaeologists have been working in Pompeii since 2000. Our fieldwork has consisted mainly of the study of standing walls and cleared floor levels in a city block unearthed in the 19th century and of the production of a comprehensive documentation, presented in an open access publication: www.pompejiprojektet.se/insula.php. The perspective of the present paper is the insula as a whole. Its
OBJECTIVES: Prioritisation in healthcare is an issue of growing importance due to scarcity of resources. The aims of this study were firstly to describe decision makers' experience of prioritisation and their views concerning willingness to pay and how to finance healthcare costs. An additional aim was to compare the views of politicians and physicians. METHODS: The study was a cross-sectional stu
In the wake of the enactment of Sweden’s Language Act in 2009 and in the face of the growing presence of English, Swedish universities have been called upon by the Swedish Higher Education Authority to craft their own language policy documents. This article focuses on the discursive negotiation of institutional bilingualism by a language policy committee at one Swedish university during the proces
Nature-based rehabilitation (NBR) has convincing support in research, yet the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. The present study sought to increase understanding of the role of soundscapes in NBR, an aspect paid little attention thus far. Transcribed interviews with 59 patients suffering from stress-related mental disorders and undergoing a 12-week therapy programme in the rehabilit
We can trace the beginnings of our knowledge of early Upper Paleolithic (Aurignacian) use of fire to the pioneering 1910–1911 excavations at Abri Blanchard undertaken by Louis Didon and Marcel Castanet. At Blanchard, the excavators recognized and described fire structures that correspond in many ways to features excavated more recently in Western and Central Europe. Here, we address the issue of h
Abstract in Bosnian:Raširenost vladajućih normi u društvu u kontekstu rata, okupacije, anarhije i preuzimanja vlasti od strane kriminalnih snaga uništava stare, ali postavlja nove norme, koje takođe mogu biti odbačene. Anomija se može opisati kao nukleus društva, kao vrsta „pulsirajuće moralne destrukcije” koju niko ne kontroliše, ali koja paradoksalno proizvodi socijalni red. Anomija se ne rađa i
The evidence pointing to a fundamental link between abundance in natural resources and unsustainable development processes in developing countries has caught attention lately, one aspect of this being the „resource curse‟. This paper aims to demonstrate the extent to which the resource abundance can explain the unsustainable economic development process of Kazakhstan. It aims to answer the overarc

This thesis problematizes the consumption of meat and animal-derived foods in the age of climate change. Despite vast empirical data showing the detrimental effects related to animal agriculture, there is a general reluctance to stop consuming animal-based foods. In order to investigate the reasons for this reluctance, qualitative interviews were chosen as a research method. Using Norway as a case
Coastal ecosystems are some of the most productive, and most at risk, in the world. These ecosystems are at risk due to the high levels of pollution entering the system. Most of this pollution comes from either run off or atmospheric deposition. There are a few ways in which this pollution could be tackled without a complete overhaul of societal systems, the most common solutions being grey or gre
Arkiv används ofta som en källa inom olika forskningsprojekt. I den här uppsatsen är det istället arkivet i sig som är studieobjekt. Utifrån mediearkeologisk teori undersöks Biblioteksstyrelsens arkiv i Åmål. Uppsatsens teoretiska utgångspunkter är att arkiv befinner sig i en samhällelig kontext och återspeglar det minne det lagrar. Uppsatsen är en kvalitativ studie och arkivet har undersökts på fArchives are often used as a source in various research projects. In this essay, it is instead the archive that is a study object. Based on media archaeological theory, the Library Board's archive in Åmål is examined. The theoretical basis of the essay is that archives are in a social context and reflect the memory it stores. It is a qualitative study and the archive has been investigated on s
Den svenska lagstiftaren betraktar doping som ett oönskat beteende vilket på olika sätt bör bekämpas. År 1991 infördes en särskild dopinglag, lag (1991:1969) om förbud mot vissa dopningsmedel. Till stöd för ett rättsligt dopingförbud anfördes argument om skydd för folkhälsa och minskad dopingrelaterad kriminalitet. År 1999 utvidgades lagen till att omfatta ett förbud mot bruk av dopingmedel. I takThe Swedish legislator views doping as an unwanted behaviour, which in many ways should be fought. In 1991, the first anti-doping law, “lag (1991:1969) om förbud mot vissa dopningsmedel”, was founded. To justify a legal prohibition against doping, the government adduced arguments such as protection of public health and reduction in doping related crime. In 1999, the law was extended to include a p
In Zambia, the privatisation of state owned companies is challenging job security, working conditions and workers’ rights. It has also weakened the role of government as a regulator of labour legislation, which in Zambia is quite progressive, compared to other countries in the region. Workers struggle to survive and therefore turn to trade unions in order to change their situation. This study exam
This thesis examines how the Climate Justice Movement in Germany is set up today and how activists relate to and feel about their activism. Specifically, factors are investigated that make people feel unhappy about their activism or even leave the movement. Furthermore, potential changes of the movement in order to become a healthier and more sustainable environment for activists are suggested. Pa
The last few years has seen the world slipping back into the classic dividing lines of the Cold War - marked perhaps most clearly by Russias invasion of Crimea in 2014. At the same time, a new phenomenen has entered modern politics. We discuss fake news, information warfare and election meddling - again with Russia as a proposed assailant. What is the driving force behind this? And is it something
Continuous organisational changes worldwide have led to a considerable amount of research on this topic within various fields. Managers have generally been acknowledged as the most crucial stakeholders in organisational changes, leading to a majority of studies being from their perspective. This has led to an unbalanced view on organisational changes. This study therefore aims to explore the emplo

One of the greatest challenges astronomers are facing today is understanding how galaxies form. We know that the Milky Way is a spiral disk galaxy, similar to many others we see in the sky, therefore the Milky Way is a benchmark for understanding the inner workings of disk galaxies. The task of unraveling the mystery of the formation of the Milky Way has been given to astronomers, who attempt to c
