The first stories about Kluskap, the culture hero of the Mi’kmaq in eastern Canada, were written down at the end of the 19th century. The romantic epoch and the environmental failures of industrialism had generated a growing interest for the “Indian”, who seemed to inherit the continent’s authentic “poetry of the Volk” and harbour deep wisdom about nature. The first written literature about Kluska
In the world of cryptography, stream ciphers are known as primitives used to ensure privacy over a communication channel. One common way to build a stream cipher is to use a keystream generator to produce a pseudo-random sequence of symbols. In such algorithms, the ciphertext is the sum of the keystream and the plaintext, resembling the one-time pad principal. Although the idea behind stream ciphe
Despite rigorous efforts to improve the construction working environment in the European Union, the fatal accident rate is approximately 13 workers per 100,000 as against 5 per 100,000 for the all sectors average. Although the accident rates have declined steadily and steeply since 1994, it still remains unacceptably high. Thousands of construction workers still suffer severe injury and even death
The centromeres of most higher eukaryotes are embedded within large regions of constitutive heterochromatin and consist of large quantities of highly repetitive DNA. Transposable elements are also found in these regions. However, a detailed mapping of such elements or other nonsatellite DNA embedded within the large blocks of centromeric repetitive DNA has not yet been made. The dipteran Chironomu
Popular Abstract in Swedish Ekonomistyrsystemens utformning och roll är sedan 1980-talet föremål för stor uppmärksamhet mot bakgrund av pågående förändringar i företagens tillverknings- och marknadsmiljö. En grundläggande frågeställning som behandlas i boken är vilken påverkan företagens situation har på ekonomistyrsystemets utformning och om olika ekonomistyrsystem är mer ändamålsenliga än andra The focus of the thesis is the situation of and the management control systems in middle-sized, manufacturing companies. We have examined the relevance of different types of management control systems for different situations and formulated taxonomies of the contingency factors environment, production situation and business strategy. We found two types of situation. The first type, the interactive
Popular Abstract in Swedish I en tid då allt färre lever på landsbygden har jordbrukslandskapet blivit föremål för ett växande intresse. Landsbygdens landskap har i vår tid kommit att framstå som idylliskt, äkta och naturligt, men också som i hög grad hotat. Den här avhandlingen analyserar ur ett etnologiskt perspektiv vad landskap är och hur landskap skapas. Den behandlar bland annat människors oThe complex character of rural landscapes implies a constant interaction between mind and matter as well as between nature and society. In landscapes, the established division of reality into nature and culture appears all but natural. This book points to the possibilities of regarding landscape as a dialectical process. Landscape is here used as an analytical device to examine nature-culture rela
When designing symmetric ciphers, security and performance are of utmost importance. When selecting a symmetric encryption algorithm, the first choice is whether to choose a block cipher or a stream cipher. Most modern block ciphers offer a sufficient security and a reasonably good performance. But a block cipher must usually be used in a stream cipher mode of operation, which suggests that using
Sertindole is an antipsychotic drug with affinity for dopamine D, serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2C, and alpha(1)-adrenoreceptors. Preclinical studies suggest that sertindole acts preferentially on limbic and cortical dopaminergic neurons and clinical trials have confirmed that sertindole is effective at a low cloparnine D-2 occupancy level. The active substance has a long half-life. Oral administration
Leaf and bark volatiles from nonhost angiosperm trees were tested on lps duplicatus by gas chromatographic-electroantennographic detection (GC-EAD) and by pheromone-baited traps in Sweden and Inner Mongolia, China, respectively. GC-EAD analysis of the headspace volatiles from fresh bark chips of Betula pubescens revealed trans-conophthorin, two green leaf Volatiles (GLVs): 1-hexanol and (Z)-3-hexe
Abraham från Godegård – berättelsen om en originell människa och hans musik bygger på Peter Berrys mångåriga efterforskningar om folkskolläraren Abraham Hagholm (1811-1890). Hagholm var son till en fattig torpare i en avlägsen socken av Östergötland och drabbades i tidig ålder av förlamning. Hagholm övervann svårigheterna i sitt liv genom sin starka vilja och sitt livslånga engagemang i musik. IdaAbraham of Godegård – a tale of originality and music Summarizing a story as wild and ambiguous as this one is a difficult task. My story seems to lack order but is a thorough scholarly study at the same time as being a very personal rendition of how I have proceeded along the road of my research and my search for, and relationship to the subject of my story, the school teacher and musician Abrah
Popular Abstract in English Climate migration has become an iconic topic in international climate politics and policy. This work, combining political ecology, critical security studies and post-foundational theories, traces the changes of conflicting discourses across time and space, and assesses the different forms of security they interpellate. While initially attracting attention as a securityThis work seeks to de-naturalise climate-induced migration (CM). Combining political ecology and post-foundational theories, I read CM as a construct that reifies a series of phenomena into an issue to be researched and governed. By assessing the narratives, the knowledge, the logics and imaginaries on which conflicting discourses are built, I analyse the strategies of government they envision. I
This research is an attempt to conceptualize the underlying forces behind persistent and ubiquitous problems of inequality in access to water in cities of the global south. Inequality in water access is hypothesized to result from urban water regimes that tend to prioritize the right to water access or to provide preferential terms of access for some groups in society, while marginalizing others.
