The knowledge I have acquired d
As energy demand soars to new levels in heavily industrialised European countries, difficult decisions have to be made on how to ensure sufficient future energy capacity. The decision of the EU to put nuclear energy back on the agenda as a means of solving this issue must be seen against the backdrop of the debate over climate change and the outspoken policy to substantially reduce greenhouse gas
With the help and mediation of international involvement, a peace negotiation, succeeding previous futile attempts to put an end to a civil war finally led to the signing of the Chapultepec peace accords. The first presidential elections in 1994 were won by right-winged party ARENA, who furthermore would hold power through elections for 15 years to come. In the 2009 elections, left winged party FM
The purpose of this thesis is to understand if the picture of wealth in Matthew 27:57, where Joseph of Arimathea is described as rich, is coherent with the picture of wealth that appears in the rest of the Gospel of Matthew.

In a 2007 article, Hathaway relaunched his proposal of a multilateral refugee protection system based on the idea of ‘common but differentiated responsibility’. The 2007 article and an earlier, similar article of 1997 both observe that the proposed system will not provide a back door to ‘permanent immigration’ for refugees.In the proposals, all remaining migration movements are subjected to the co
In this document, a large number of mathematical models describing various physical, biological and chemical processes in a wastewater treatment plant are presented. In most cases, the models are fairly simple as they are inteded for steady-state simulations based on yearly averages of the influent wastewater charteristics. The combination of models forms a software tool namned URWARE (URban WAter
This paper focuses on two phenomena, a semanticization of the gender system that started in West Jutland, the southwestern part of Denmark, and so-called “pancake sentences” in Mainland Scandinavian (primarily Danish and Swedish). In West Jutlandic, substance-denoting nouns (as well as event nouns) are obligatorily constructed with a prenominal neuter element, primarily det, for example det mælk
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det mystika arvet: om konsten att erhålla och förklara det (och förstå litegrann): Ett turkiskt exempel.
Popular Abstract in Swedish Alla levande organismer är uppbyggda av celler. Antalet celler varierar, från encelliga organismer, t ex jäst, till flercelliga organismer, som t ex djur och växter. För att en cell ska fungera och utvecklas måste cellen hålla den inre miljön relativt konstant trots kanske stora variationer i miljön utanför. För att kunna göra detta har celler utvecklat system för att tIn plants, 14-3-3 proteins are key regulators of primary metabolism and membrane transport. It was previously thought that the 14-3-3 isoforms were not very specific with regard to target proteins, but more recent data suggest that the specificity may be high. Therefore, identification, localization, and characterization of all 14-3-3 isoforms in the model plant Arabidopsis are important. We ident
I analyze the effect of a large exogenous trade shock on mortality in the United States between 2002 and 2012. Following the example of Autor, Dorn, and Hanson (2013), I construct a variable that captures the difference in exposure to import competition stemming from differences in initial manufacturing employment structures. I avoid endogeneity issues by instrumenting US commuting zones’ exposure
The aim of this short article is to question the archaeological classification of the Neolithic archaeological cultures, and to raise questions about how to understand the fragmentary material culture in terms of social agency and cultural expression. e settlement of Jonstorp in southern Sweden as a case of the south Scandinavian Pitted Ware complex presents theoretical and methodological implicat
The potential tension between being a pan-European umbrella organisation and engaging in queer politics was the starting point of this thesis that investigates the implications that the concept and practice of queer has within IGLYO (International Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Queer Youth and Student Organisation). My interpretations are informed by aspects of Queer theory and social movement t
The aim of this thesis is to examine natural resource rights of the non-herding Saami population in Sweden. Throughout history Swedish governments have actively reinforced the notion of herding as the core of Saami culture. In reality, the Saamis involved in this traditional livelihood consists a small part of the overall Saami population. Swedish law still make a distinction between the herding a
Sedan länge har det funnits en uppdelning i Sverige mellan den idrottsliga världen och den allmänna domstolen när det kommer till idrottsrelaterad tvistelösning. Denna uppdelning innebär i praktiken att idrottsnämnder sköter sin egen tvistelösning genom privatdomarförfaranden och i vissa fall skiljeförfaranden. Denna uppsats undersöker Svensk Travsports privatdomarförfarande och jämför det med artFor a long time, there has been a division in Sweden between the sports movement and the general courts when it comes to sports-related disputes. In practice this division means that sports associations deal with their disputes through private dispute resolution and in some cases through arbitration proceedings. This essay examines the Swedish Trotting Associations private dispute resolution and c
Brottslighet och särskilt organiserad brottslighet, utgör ett problem för samhället i Sverige men också i andra länder. I statsmaktens arbete mot kriminalitet är hindrande av möjligheterna till penningtvätt, ett viktigt inslag. Penningtvättsåtgärder kan nämligen allmänt beskrivas syfta till att dölja eller omsätta vinning av brottslig verksamhet. Studier har visat att omfattande summor pengar frånCrime and in particular organized crime, is a problem for the society in Sweden but also in other countries.
