When it comes to reading, there are rather large differences between boys and girls in skill and frequency, and these differences have persisted for decades. For the last few years I have sensed an increasingly negative image of boys and men in the ”public conversation”. What to read is a matter of personal choice, yet this personal choice is, in this conversation, connected to war, men’s violence
To attain an Internal Market, in which goods, capital and natural and legal persons can move from Member States to Member State, is one of the main aims of the EU. The Treaty of Rome was laid down in order to tear down obstacles that existed and to create bonds between the Member States. The EC Treaty contained the fundamental freedoms, essential in the work towards an Internal Market. In order t
Fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) deoxyribonucleoside kinase (DmdNK; EC: 2.7.1.145) was characterized for its substrate specificity towards natural and non-natural nucleosides, confirming its potential in the enzymatic synthesis of modified nucleotides. DmdNK was adsorbed on a solid ion exchange support (bearing primary amino groups) achieving an expressed activity >98%. Upon cross-linking with
Nanoteknik är ‘big business’. Stora summor pengar står på spel då detta innovativa teknikområde expanderar i snabb takt. Denna undersökning utgår från antagandet att ekonomiska intressen snarare än demokratiska värden och hållbar utveckling styr utvecklingen av nanoteknik i Sverige idag. Detta ses som problematiskt, och det övergripande målet är att föreslå alternativa principer för att styra utveNanotechnology is big business. With rapid innovation and expansion of the field, financial stakes are high. This study is based on the assumption that the development of nanotechnology in Sweden today is controlled by economic interests rather than democratic values and sustainable development. This is considered problematic, and the overall aim with this study is to propose alternative principle
Since the middle of the last century, excavated clay tobacco pipes have been used for dating post-medieval sites with the aid of extensive typologies and dating techniques. Until recently, social aspects of smoking represented by clay tobacco pipes have been relatively unexplored. In Sweden little attention has been paid to social implications of pipes and smoking in the 17th and 18th centuries, a
Denna uppsats behandlar överprövning inom offentlig upphandling och den därvid närliggande frågan om negativ rättskraft. Offentlig upphandling är ett särpräglat område som har stora likheter med tvistemål inom allmän process. Detta till trots, sorteras området under förvaltningsrätt. LOU reglerar myndigheters inköp av varor och tjänster och bygger på EU-direktiv, vilka dock inte är föremål för behThis essay deals with the problem of the possibility for a supplier to raise claims regarding public procurement and the nearby question of res judicata. Public procurement is a distinctive area within Swedish law because of its similarities with civil case suits while still being sorted under administrative law. The Swedish procurement act regulates governmental purchase of wares and services and
The aim and purpose of this thesis is to examine the relationship between archives and cultural tourism and how people within the Swedish archives sector relate to this. Specifically, the aim is trying to find out if and how the selected archives are using (cultural)tourism and for example marketing to attract new visitors to their institutions. But also to see if it is so that the archives and th
New methods for spectrophotometric alkalinity measurement, dissolved hydrogen monitoring and for obtaining a fingerprint of the microbial community were evaluated as tools for process monitoring in anaerobic digestion. The anaerobic digestion process was operated at organic loading rates of 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5g volatile solids l-1d-1 and subjected to pulse loads of carbohydrate, lipid, protein and a
In today's society, companies are struggling to be heard and seen in the ever-increasing amount of information available on the market. A distinctive trademark has therefore become a very important means of communication for businesses. A trademark is often of considerable value in the form of goodwill and corporate image and is seen to communicate consumer attitude. An entire concept is not uI dagens samhälle kämpar företag för att höras och synas i det överflöd av information som finns tillgänglig. Ett särskiljande kännetecken har därmed blivit ett mycket viktigt kommunikationsmedel för företag. I detta kännetecken ligger ofta ett betydande värde i form av goodwill och image och attityd hos förbrukarna. Inte sällan är det hela koncept som förmedlas i ett komplicerat byggande av relat
Abstract Sammanfattning: Uppsatsen handlar om hur ungdomar förhåller sig till talet om pornografi, hur de uppfattar, definierar och resonerar kring fenomenet i förhållande till sig själva och till andra fenomen. I uppsatsen vill jag visa på hur mötet mellan två olika diskurser, en som reglerar sexualitet och en som reglerar förhållandet vuxen/ungdom, styr hur ungdomar förhåller sig till och reson
Interfirm self-regulation through trade associations is common but its effectiveness is debated and likely varies by time, country, and industry. This study examines self-regulation of pharmaceutical marketing, characterized by delegation of major regulatory responsibilities to trade associations' self-regulatory bodies. In addressing critical research gaps, this study first analyzes 1,776 complai
Mining Life: An Exploration in Three Acts into the Potential of Socially Engaged Art Practices to Instigate Social Change investigates the intersection of art, activism, and social change through three major artistic research projects. Emerging from a critical shift in my own artistic practice, this thesis questions the role of socially engaged art within post-colonial structures, challenging the
Reality isn’t what it appears to be. Contexts are not always clear and visible. People don’t always say what they really mean. And they don’t always mean what they say. When life is your stage manager, anything can happen. I often say, life is hard, my head is harder. Making documentaries is not for the faint-hearted.This PhD project explores creative processes and parallel realities in documentar
This paper presents the method and performance of primary vertex reconstruction in proton–proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment during Run 1 of the LHC. The studies presented focus on data taken during 2012 at a centre-of-mass energy of s=8 TeV. The performance has been measured as a function of the number of interactions per bunch crossing over a wide range, from one to seventy.
En katalysator är en substans som kan snabba på en kemisk reaktion utan attsjälv förbrukas. Katalysatorer används vanligen i kemisk produktion och i bilarsförbränningsmotorer (för att ta bort tex CO och NO). För att optimera katalysatornoch utveckla andra och bättre katalysatorer i framtiden så behöver vi vetahur katalysatorn fungerar på atomär nivå. Katalysatorer i industrin är komplexavilket görA catalyst is a substance that can speed up the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being consumed. Catalysts are crucial for chemical production industries, where about 90% of all chemicals are produced using catalysts. They are also used for exhaust gas cleaning, for instance in cars, where CO and unburned fuels are oxidized to CO2 and NOx is reduced to N2. To optimize catalysts, and deve
Lead-based perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) have outstanding optical properties and cheap synthesis conferring them a tremendous potential in the field of optoelectronic devices. However, two critical problems are still unresolved and hindering their commercial applications: one is the fact of being lead-based and the other is the poor stability. Lead-free all-inorganic perovskite Cs3Bi2X9 (X=Cl, Br,
Background: More people will probably continue working into old age in the future due to the increased size of aging populations in many countries. We therefore need to know more about older workers' health in relation to their work situation and retirement. This study is a part of a theoretical development of older workers' situations. Older workers' situations are theoretically themed in nine ar
Churches are in crisis. The turn to praxis in ecclesiology appears to attend to the current crisis; yet, the appearance might be deceptive. Since post-liberal ecclesiologies – such as John Milbank’s – consider neither quantitative-empirical nor qualitative-empirical accounts of concrete churches, the turn might be assessed as a turn to talk about praxis instead of a turn to praxis. Confronting Mil
