Self-recognition is an advanced cognitive ability that is traditionally investigated by the mirror mark test. However, it has been argued that this test might not be a reliable measure of self-recognition ability, as it may be affected by the mirror understanding of the species. The great tit (Parus major) is one of the many avian species that did not succeed in this test. However, it has never be
Länge har de riktade emissionerna hamnat i skuggan av företrädesemissionerna. Min utredning visar på att såväl lagstiftaren som AMN under en lång period har ställt sig restriktiva till en ökning av riktade emissioner. Genom samhällets utveckling och vid olika konjunkturcykler har det skett en stadig ökning av användandet av nyemissioner. Bolagen är i allt större behov av att anskaffa kapital och n
En viktig princip i svensk företagsbeskattning är den evigt rullande kvittningsrätten. Den innebär att ett företag som får ett underskott ett beskattningsår kan då spara det och kvitta det mot framtida vinster i samma verksamhet. I Inkomstskattelagens 40 kap finns bestämmelser som begränsar avdragsrätten för underskott. Begränsningarna blir tillämpliga när det sker en ägarförändring för underskottAn important principle in swedish tax law is the possibility to equalize loss by saving deficits from one fiscal year and use it to set off against future profits. In the 40th chapter of the swedish income tax act there are limitations for using the accumulated losses. When there has been an ownership change in the company with the deficits, the limitations apply. If the ownership change means tha
Social services work with violent fathers The objective of this study was to review and analyze how social workers, employed by the Swedish social services, work with fathers that are domestically violent and to discuss their views and perceptions on this issue. Domestic violence is traditionally considered a private matter, and in the past has largely not been considered a child protection issue
The depletion of oil reserves and the increasingly stringent European Union regulation of air pollution have forced researchers and manufacturers to search for cleaner and sustainable substitutes to petroleum‐based transportation fuels. Biofuels like small aliphatic alcohols are of increasing interest as alternatives to fossil fuels, as they offer long‐term fuel‐source regenerability. As major adv
What does recognition mean for people whose sexuality has for a long time been criminalised? Over the last years, the recognition of India’s queers has been the focus of numerous contestations as a result of the complex developments around Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code, which criminalises ‘carnal acts against the order of nature’. The Section had been partially repealed in 2009 by the Delhi
A great deal of attention is currently being paid in urban sociology to the relationship between place and identity. The background to the growing interest in the identity development of individuals can be found in the radical changes the city is presently undergoing. These changes have often been described in terms of the dissolving city, a concept that not only refers to the continuing physical/
Popular Abstract in Swedish Kroppens immunförsvar består av röda och vita blodceller som alla härstammar från blodbildande stamceller i benmärgen. Stamcellerna har den unika egenskapen att kunna producera alla typer av blodceller och upprätthålla produktionen hela livet ut. I princip all blodbildning (hematopoes) sker i benmärgen, förutom för T celler. Dessa är vita blodceller som produceras i thyhe hematopoietic development is a highly dynamic but tightly regulated process. The flexibility to produce blood cells through more than one route will allow the blood system to respond rapidly in stress situations such as infections. On the other hand, regulation of the blood system is required to prevent blood cells from uncontrolled proliferation that could result in leukemia or bone marrow fai
A quite common view is that the scientific persona matters less in contemporary Western knowledge societies. Large research groups produce new scientific discoveries gathered around impersonal expert system. However, it is also well known that scientific cultures differ widely. In physics, the projects are quite impersonal, sometimes including thousands of persons. The prime example is the CERN or
Colon cancer is the third most common cancer in the world and the fourth most common cause of cancer related deaths. Inflammation is one of the risk factors for development of colon cancer. Interestingly immune cells as mast cells and inflammatory mediators as LTC4 play an important role in colon cancer. Genetic predisposition, which might lead to either activation of oncogenes or inhibition of tu
The tradition of writing books specifically for girls came to an abrupt end in the middle of the 1960's. In Sweden this was a turbulent decade when society changed in many ways, and equality between the sexes was a key word. The old girls' and boys' books were replaced by "the modern book for young people", which, it was proclaimed, should be up-to-date, discuss real problems, break taboos, and ap

In the autumn of 1993 the subject of free trade in visual media was brought into the public eye as never before, at least within the European Union. The occasion was of course the much publicised near breakdown in the ongoing GATT-negotiations. The crux seemed to be that the US and the EU was unable to come to terms whereas films and television programmes was to be seen as manufactured goods which
