De senaste årtiondena har vi sett en ökad förståelse för hur strukturella ojämlikheter mellan könen inom flyktingrätten har lett till att kvinnor systematiskt har missgynnats vid beviljandet av flyktingskap i enlighet med 1951 års Flyktingkonvention. I Sverige ledde det här till en lagändring av Utlänningslagen år 2005, då könsrelaterad förföljelse lades till som en grund för flyktingskap. Den här

Omvandlingsmineralogi typiskt för Svartliden Studien behandlar Svartliden, som är en gruva i norra Sverige nära Skelleftefältet. Den ligger i "Guldlinjen", som är en tektonisk zon med guldmineraliseringar. Svartlidengruvan upptäcktes av amatörgeologer, som letade efter stenblock med låga sulfidhalter. Så gjorde man inte vid malmletning i Skelleftefältet. Där letade man efter block med hö

Educational investments are made with the expectation that the acquired skills and knowledge will be applied on the labour market. Matching education and occupations lead to lower unemployment and vacancy rates and higher productivity and wages, but several imperfections of the labour market hinder the matching process.

Ökande oljepriser och en stigande efterfrågan gör idag undersökningar av alternativa petroleumreservoarer extra intressanta. Istället för att borra i den sedimentära berggrunden ges nu möjligheten att granska kristallina berggrundsreservoarer. Den här typen av borrning i kristallin berggrund äger rum på flera platser i världen, exempelvis i Vietnam och Yemen. Det norska företaget Lundin Norway AS Rising oil prices and an increasing global use of fossil fuels make the survey of alternative petroleum reservoirs of great importance. Instead of drilling in regular sedimentary successions, the possibility of investigating reservoirs in crystalline basement is in many places of economic interest. Reservoirs in crystalline basement rock are producing oil in several countries e.g. Vietnam and Yeme

Banks are normally heavily indebted with equity levels of 5-10 percent of total assets or even lower. The assets consist mainly of short-term and long-term loans, funded by deposits which can be withdrawn at short notice. In order to avoid excessive withdrawals, which is called a bank run, deposit insurance systems, guaranteed by the state, are generally in operation. The financial sector is chara

Skrynkelstrukturer, en typ av mikrobiellt inducerade sedimentstrukturer (MISS) har återfunnits i jurassiska tidalt avsatta heteroliter i skånska Kulla Gunnarstorp. Skrynkelstrukturer kännetecknas av små, ofta avlånga veck på överytan av finkorniga sandstenar. Dessa strukturer, liksom MISS i allmänhet, bildas i siliciklastiska sediment under inverkan av bakteriellt utsöndrad extracellulär polymeris
