This thesis takes on the distribution of influence at the local level of the Church of Sweden from a legitimacy theory perspective. It is argued that the high levels of member resignation could be viewed as a manifested lack of confidence due to the failing legitimacy of the Church of Sweden. In order to continue the academic discussion on the democratic relation between the Church and its members
Sammanfattning Det naturvetenskapliga kunskapsläget om klimatförändringarna förbättrats ständigt genom forskningen om klimatsystemet, klimatpåverkan, klimatets variationer och förändringar samt klimateffekter. Kunskapsläget är väletablerat när det gäller den grundläggande fysiken bakom växthuseffekten, liksom att genomsnittstemperaturen vid jordytan stigit de senaste femtio åren. Det är också my
Background: In most resource poor countries, particularly sub-Saharan Africa, modern contraceptive use and prevalence is unusually low and fertility is very high resulting in rapid population growth and high maternal mortality and morbidity. Current evidence shows slow progress in expanding the use of contraceptives by women of low socioeconomic status and insufficient financial commitment to fami
We study some properties of random walks perturbed at extrema, which are generalizations of the walks considered, e.g., by Davis (1999) and Tth (1996). This process can also be viewed as a version of an excited random walk, recently studied by many authors. We obtain several properties related to the range of the process with infinite memory and prove the strong law, the central limit theorem, and
Helicobacter pylori infection in humans is associated with chronic type B gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and gastric carcinoma. A high intake of carotenoids and vitamin C has been proposed to prevent development of gastric malignancies. The aim of this study was to explore if the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis rich in the carotenoid astaxanthin and vitamin C can inhibit experimental H. pylori
The importance of screening programs in reducing the prevalence of genital chlamydial infections is stressed by the fact that the majority of infected persons are more or less asymptomatic. The use of oral contraceptives may mask infections affecting the upper genital tract. This imposes selective screening and rescreening of women with a history of pelvic inflammatory disease. The recent knowledg
Artikel 101 i fördraget om Europeiska unionens funktionssätt (FEUF) gäller för företag och förbjuder företag att ingå avtal som potentiellt kan påverka konkurrensen på marknaden. Konkurrensen på marknaden i Europeiska unionen (EU) är ett mål som EU strävar efter att upprätthålla och skydda. Detta är främst för att upprätthålla en marknad som är rättvis för kunderna, men också för att samhället skaArticle 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) applies to undertakings and prohibits undertakings to enter into an agreement that could potentially affect the competition on the market. The competition on the market in the European Union (EU) is an objective that the EU aims to maintain and protect. This is mainly to maintain a market that is fair for the customers but a
This paper investigates Carmen Laforet's Nada through the perspective of censorship. It focuses on the historical context and the machinery of the censorship process in Francoist Spain. The research aims to analyse how Laforet's literary style creates an opportunity for publication despite the critical touch in terms of content. The analytical part takes as its starting point the fluid the
Economic sanctions, a key foreign policy tool in global diplomacy, present both challenges and opportunities, yet relatively underexamined in scholarly research. Unlike previous sanctions aimed at natural resources, the US-China trade war targets labour-intensive manufacturing, creating unique opportunities for investment relocation to labour-abundant countries. Vietnam’s success in attracting sub
Unravelling the home is an anecdotal mapping of the house and the objects within it to seek a deeper understanding of what a home is constructed of. Through prints, photographs, observations, interviews and drawings, the house is slowly unravelled to visualise the material and the immaterial components, including the norms and narratives, that makes it a home. The notion of the home as a physical
Denna uppsats baseras på en jämförande undersökning av två av fyra befintliga svenska översättningar av den amerikanske författaren F. Scott Fitzgeralds roman The Great Gatsby från 1925. Med en kvalitativ metod som bygger på näranalys av textutdrag ur romanen och de båda översättningarna jämförs de med varandra för att utröna vilken som kan anses mera källtexttrogen. De aspekter som särskilt stude
Book review.
Thirty-nine streptococcal strains belonging to groups A, C, and G and 12 staphylococcal strains were investigated with respect to surface charge and hydrophobicity. Isoelectric points of the bacteria were determined by cross-partition experiments in dextran-polyethylene glycol two-phase systems containing charged polymers. The results obtained indicate that group A, C, and G streptococci have isoe
Popular Abstract in Swedish Komplementsystemet ingår i vårt naturliga immunförsvar och bidrar till det förvärvade immunförsvaret bl. a. genom att aktiveras av specifika antikroppar. Komplementsystemets viktigaste skyddsfunktioner är att försvara oss mot bakteriella infektioner, förhindra uppkomst av autoimmuna sjukdomar genom att eliminera immunkomplex och döende celler samt att fungera som en för
