In examining the complex identities of legal and illegal immigrants, as constructed by the EU, I have used discourse analysis to identify the meanings assigned to them. By using the theories of identity construction made by Torben Bech Dyrberg and discourse analysis from Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe I have analyzed seven official EU statements. I found that legal and illegal immigrants are cr
This research explored the relationship between new knowledge and increased awareness towards action and considered how the women participating in the ACCESS program in Netrakona in Bangladesh were acting upon their newly gained knowledge in terms of social and institutional change. Qualitative methods were used to capture the discursive change in the micro settings among the participants. In orde
Årtionden efter att internationella klimatförhandlingar inleddes tampas världen fortfarande med den grundläggande frågeställningen hur klimatåtgärder skall mobiliseras. Samtidigt stiger kostnaderna till följd av vår passivitet. Det har visat sig nästintill omöjligt för det internationella samfundet att göra upp om ett gemensamt, bindande regelverk för klimatpåverkan. Även på regional och lokal nivSeveral decades after the initiation of international climate change negotiations, the world still struggles with the issue of how to mobilize climate action. In the meantime, the costs of inaction rise to unprecedented heights. It has proven more than difficult – even impossible for the international society to agree upon a binding common framework, and also on regional and local levels are regul
The purpose of this research paper is to explore interdependencies between existing ideas and concepts in the area of business relationships. On the basis of this, a basic model is being developed in order to understand the specifics of relationships in newly-developed business networks. By exploring new business networks in an under-researched industry of the FMCG-sector, the theoretical conceptu
This study examines the representation of the European Union (EU) and EU-Hungarian relations in the two largest daily newspapers in Hungary, Népszabadság and Magyar Nemzet. Focusing on the topic of the Hungarian national elections and the tenth anniversary of Hungary in the EU, a critical discourse analysis (CDA) was carried out on articles appearing between 1 March and 5 May 2014 to identify disc
Every year hundreds of thousands of Central American migrants from mainly Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador embark on a journey through Mexican territory with the hopes of a better future in the United States - estimations suggest that up to thirty percent are women. Transnational migration is due to heightened violence in Central America on the rise. Although earlier research about women´s part
Processed food and eating out of the home are increasing phenomena, which presents new business opportunities for food manufacturers. However, the new food products require increased quality and safety, and thereby a more controlled distribution. The overall purpose of the research presented in this article is to describe the food supply chain from a critical context point of view in order to high
An analysis of the direct soft photon production rate as a function of the parent jet characteristics is presented, based on hadronic events collected by the DELPHI experiment at LEP1. The dependences of the photon rates on the jet kinematic characteristics (momentum, mass, etc.) and on the jet charged, neutral and total hadron multiplicities are reported. Up to a scale factor of about four, which
Excited states in the T-z-1/2 nucleus Rb-75 were observed for the first time using the Ca-40(Ca-40,alpha p) reaction at 128 MeV. Identification was achieved using events detected by the Daresbury recoil separator in coincidence with gamma rays detected in the 45 element EUROGAM I Ge-detector array. Threefold events were used to build a decay scheme which consists of two rotational bands observed t
A rapid increase in the prevalence of Streptococcus pneumoniae with reduced sensitivity to penicillin (MIC > or = 0.12 microgram/mL) was noted among clinical isolates during a 15-month period in 1994-1995 in the city of Malmo, Sweden. All first-time clinical isolates (n = 178) were consecutively collected and investigated for genetic relatedness with BOX-A PCR and arbitrarily primed (AP) PCR. An i
Development of the Drosophila visceral muscle depends on Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (Alk) receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling, which specifies founder cells (FCs) in the circular visceral mesoderm (VM). Although Alk activation by its ligand Jelly Belly (Jeb) is well characterized, few target molecules have been identified. Here, we used targeted DamID (TaDa) to identify Alk targets in embryos
The gallium abundance in HgMn stars has been reported to be different for analyses conducted from spectral lines in the optical versus those from the ultraviolet. We pursue this ultraviolet-optical discrepancy from a line-blending perspective by investigating the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) spectrum of the sharp-lined HgMn binary star chi Lup. Its galli
In 14 pigs the infrarenal vena cava was replaced with a peritoneal tube graft or a collagen-coated double velour graft. With 111In-labelled platelets dynamic in vivo imaging of platelet aggregation over the graft was carried out using a scintillation camera. After removal, the grafts were examined by autoradiography for an evaluation of the platelet aggregation pattern. Measurements of activity in
Nitrogen (N) is often considered to be the major factor limiting tree growth in northern forest ecosystems. An increased N availability, however, increases the demand for other nutrients such as base cations and phosphorous (P) which in turn may change which nutrient is the limiting factor. If P or base cations become limiting, N will start to leach which means a risk of increased eutrophication o
A gas chromatographic method was developed to quantify the phytotoxin prehelminthosporol, which is a sesquiterpene metabolite of the plant pathogen Bipolaris sorokiniana. The toxin was extracted from mycelium or culture filtrates, pre-cleaned using solid phase extraction, and analyzed by gas chromatography as a trimethylsilyl-derivative. The detection limit of the method was 5 ng mul(-)1 (signal t
The purpose of the present study was threefold: (a) to replicate the finding by MacLeod and Rutherford (1992) that low trait-anxious individuals, in contrast to high trait-anxious individuals, show a selective attention away from subliminally presented threat words at elevated levels of stress; (b) to test the hypothesis that this effect is due to individuals with repressive coping-style rather th
Published studies have reported conflicting results regarding the effects of cinnamon on glucose, lipids and insulin. To gain further insight into the metabolic effects of Cinnamomum cassia we performed randomized, double-blinded placebo-controlled study using euglycaemic-hyperinsulinaemic clamp.
