Steriliseringslagstiftningens framväxt tog sin utgångspunkt i ”degenerationen” och oron för att industrialiseringen hade skapat en biologisk försämring av befolkningen. Det var vid denna tidpunkt som tankarna om rashygienen väcktes. Genom biologisk förädling skulle befolkningskvalitén höjas. Det fanns en förhoppning att genom positiv och negativ eugenik öka fortplantningen hos den ”goda” befolkninThe emergence of the sterilization law were based on "degeneration" and fear that the industrialization had created a biological degradation of the population. It was at this point that the ideas of the eugenics evoked. By biological processing the quality of the population should increase. There was a hope that through positive and negative eugenics increase the breeding of the "go

Denna kandidatuppsats utreder frågan om straffet livstids fängelse i Sverige bör kvarstå i sin nuvarande utformning. I uppsatsen görs en beskrivning av den historiska bakgrunden till straffet. Uppsatsens syfte är att klargöra om livstidsstraffet är en försvarlig påföljd i vårt moderna rätts-samhälle. Uppsatsen baseras på ett rättsutvecklingsperspektiv för att förklara hur livstidsstraffet fått si

Det råder i svensk rätt en grundläggande uppfattning om att unga lagöverträdare bör särbehandlas i påföljdssystemet på grund av bland annat deras bristande mognad och relativt stora sanktionskänslighet. Denna uppfattning kommer till uttryck såväl genom reglerna om ungdomsreduktion i 29 kap. 7 § BrB som genom de särskilda ungdomspåföljderna som utgörs av ungdomstjänst, ungdomsvård och sluten ungdom

Background and purpose — Analysis of the revision-free survival of knee and hip prostheses has traditionally been performed using Kaplan–Meier analysis and Cox regression. The competing risk problem that is related to patients who die during follow-up has recently been increasingly discussed, not least with regard to the problem of choosing a suitable statistical method for the analysis. We compar

Nuclear hormone receptors (NRs) regulate physiology by sensing lipophilic ligands and adapting cellular transcription appropriately. A growing understanding of the impact of circadian clocks on mammalian transcription has sparked interest in the interregulation of transcriptional programs. Mammalian clocks are based on a transcriptional feedback loop featuring the transcriptional activators circad

Key functions of civil society organizations (CSOs) are to criticize governments and to hold them to account. Recent trends of privatization and contracting out challenge CSOs’ opportunities to voice such criticism. The purpose of this article is to analyse whether and why CSOs ‘hold back their criticism’ of public authorities, and how a compromised advocacy can be linked to financial, organizatio

This article seeks to explain what policy approaches and policy measures are best suited for promoting new regional industrial path development and what needs and possibilities there are for such policy to change and adapt to new conditions in order to remain efficient. The article departs from the notion of Smart Specialization and discusses how regional strategies that are inspired by this appro

The possible importance of virus infections before the development of islet autoimmunity and then for the appearance of clinical type 1 diabetes is reviewed. There is a lack of specific data on the role of virus to induce islet autoimmunity. There is also a paucity of data to demonstrate that virus infections may contribute to an accelerated disease process resulting in clinical onset of type 1 di

The Late Neolithic flint daggers of Scandinavia have long fascinated contemporary flintknappers, due to the beauty of some specimens and the presumed skill required to make them. Examination of populations of daggers in museum collections reveals differences in knapping quality. Such differences are commonly ascribed to variations in skill levels on the part of their makers, and high skill is ofte

In light of the speedy technological development in society, technical standards are becoming increasingly important. In the early days, the specific tasks delegated to standardization bodies under the New Approach did not attract much political interest. Today, however, politicians and different stakeholders realize that the tasks delegated to the standardization industry are highly important for

This volume presents cutting-edge research on integration and adaptation processes of second-generation immigrant adolescents in Spain that no doubt constitutes an important and timely contribution to the migration-integration debate. Principal findings of the Investigación Longitudinal de la Segunda Generación study indicate a comparatively smooth integration of second-generation immigrant adoles

A model to simulate long-term beach-dune evolution due to interacting longshore and cross-shore sediment transport processes is developed and tested. The work builds on a cross-shore model (CSM) previously developed at Lund University and includes changes to the equations describing aeolian transport and morphological evolution. The modifications are mainly based on existing conceptual geomorpholo
