The intersection of Tolkien’s writing and his environmental agenda have long been studied and the Ents are easily identified as one of the envoys of environmental messages in The Lord of the Rings. The Ents are anthropomorphic Hybrids in their function within the narrative, which can lead to a paradox when considering that ecocritical theories rather disapprove of humanising tools to convey ecolog
This article explores the development process of a sharing platform in the tourism industry, drawing on a longitudinal case study of a sharing-based business in adventure tourism in Sweden. The purpose is to explore how sharing business models emerge through processes of ideological narration—the strategic use of stories to shape and sustain a business. Over a two-year period, empirical data were
Popular Abstract in Swedish Studien handlar om fysiologen Frithiof Holmgrens försök att fastställa seendets natur på experimentell väg. Avsikten är att problematisera Holmgrens intresse för synsinnet mot bakgrund av de metoder och vetenskapliga ideal som var förhärskande inom den experimentella fysiologin, det ämne som Holmgren introducerade i Sverige 1862. Generellt kan man säga att Holmgrens forThis study deals with research on the visual organ as pursued in experimental physiology during the latter half of the nineteenth-century. In the 1850's och 60's experimental physiology developed as a new, scientific discipline within the curriculum of western medicine. By opposing the natural philosophical and vitalistic viewpoint of romantic medicine and by proclaiming measuring devices, animal
The sound transmission loss of double walls in the low-frequency range is studied by means of structure-acoustic finite element analysis. The analysis simulates standard experiments to determine sound transmission loss of walls. The model is a detailed description of the geometry of the system, including both the double wall and the rooms acoustically coupled to the wall. The frequency range studi
This paper stems from an inductive research problem: the support given to the military-deep state by the youth revolutionary movement in Egypt’s political upheavals of summer 2013. Why would the youth revolutionary movement choose to support the military-deep state’s political maneuverings, and what is the precise nature of this support? To answer these questions, this paper chooses to explore two
Paper presented at Swedish Anthropological Association Annual Meeting, Lund, April 2015, panel on Business ethics. Abstract: Under the influence of U.S. government regulations, new anti-bribery laws and embarrassing corruption scandals, major global corporations have realized that unethical conduct may affect their reputations and ultimately, their profits. This development has given rise to a new
When discussing choice of methodology in evaluation studies, it is wise to reflect upon organizational considerations concerning contracting, conducting and utilization. Based upon research conducted among social workers in Sweden this paper focuses upon possibilities and problems in knowledge dissemination and usage. Powerful institutions in Sweden are now encouraging knowledge development of soc
In this study I have investigated the various factors influencing reproductive tactics among breeding blue tits (Parus caeruleus). The study was carried out in a nestbox-breeding population of marked individuals at the Revinge Area, outside Lund, southern Sweden. I have especially investigated the energetic, physiological and temporal factors influencing the reproductive decisions. This included u
The radionuclide 14C is produced in all types of nuclear reactors mainly by neutron-induced reactions in oxygen (17O), nitrogen (14N) and carbon (13C). Part of the 14C created is continuously released during normal operation as airborne effluents in various chemical forms (such as CO2, CO and hydrocarbons) to the surroundings. Because of the biological importance of carbon and the long physical ha
There is ample evidence that word order is a problematic domain in L2 usage. In particular, production of the verb-second (V2) phenomenon, which requires the finite verb in main clauses to appear in second position, (e.g., Ganuza, 2008 for an overview). Surprisingly, we know very little about how these structures are processed and how production relates to comprehension. We therefore examined how
