Denna avhandling undersöker den samtida nedmonteringen av civilsamhället i Indien genom begreppet civic governmentality. Avhandlingen hävdar att krisen för det civilas handlingsutrymme inte enbart är en berättelse om förtryck, utan om hur förutsättningarna för det civila på ett genomgripande sätt förändrats och nu präglas av auktoritär nyliberal styrning. I kontrast till dominerande narrativ som fThis thesis interrogates the contemporary unmaking of civil society in India through the analytic of civic governmentality, arguing that the crisis of civic space is not merely a story of repression but of the deeper remaking of civic subjectivity under conditions of authoritarian neoliberal rule. Against narratives that cast international non-governmental organisations (INGOs) as either heroic re

Background: Optimal treatment and support in family planning for women with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and follow-up during pregnancy are important, however, there is limited knowledge from the women’s perspective on their considerations of family planning, pregnancy, and motherhood. Objectives: To explore expectations and experiences of family planning, pregnancy, and motherhood among women with T1D.

Increasing tree species diversity is known to enhance soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks, but its effect on SOC stability remains a critical uncertainty for climate mitigation. Through examination of a subtropical karst forest diversity gradient in southwest China, we reveal a fundamental shift in SOC stabilization mechanisms using physical fractionation, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy

The reliable integration of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) into safety-critical settings requires guarantees that extend beyond empirical accuracy. Despite strong prediction performance, DNNs remain vulnerable to adversarial perturbations, information leakage, and disparities across different populations. Addressing these limitations demands scalable methods for formally analyzing network behavior un

Sensory traits shape animal lifestyles due to the central role they play in retrieving and processing environmental information. However, being some of the most energetically expensive tissues to build and maintain, ecological demands often modulate investment in these organs. Evidence that ecology shapes the evolution of sensory traits is plenty, but is heavily biased towards vertebrates and has

Previous research has shown that gender-inclusive pronouns can facilitate mental representation of nonbinary individuals. However, considering that gender and pronoun use are politicized in many countries, such that individuals with a right-wing political orientation show more skepticism toward nonbinarity, these effects may be compromised. Across four studies (Ntotal = 2,847), we tested whether t

In fixed-bed reactors, the use of large particles in thermally thick regimes is common, which underscores the need for a comprehensive understanding of intraparticle processes. However, integrating detailed particle models into fixed-bed simulations is computationally expensive. This study introduces a tabulation method for biomass conversion’s drying and pyrolysis stages, where significant mass e

This paper examines whether high levels of intergenerational class mobility in twentieth-century Sweden eliminated class-origin income inequalities within adult occupationaldestinations, and whether childhood neighborhood exposure moderated these inequalities.Using longitudinal population-register, income, occupation, and geocoded residential data, thestudy follows individuals born between 1922 an

Beta-amyloid positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) with [18F]flutemetamol is used to demonstrate presence of Alzheimer’s disease. With the possibility to use [18F]flutemetamol PET/CT for early detection of mild cognitive impairment and the development of prevention drugs, the demand for the procedure may increase significantly. The biokinetics and dosimetry of [18F]flutemetamol

Detta är Arena Idés åttonde årliga flaggskeppsrapport om den svenska arbetsmarknadsmodellen. Anders Kjellbergs rapporter för Arena Idé harblivit referensverk för alla som bevakar svensk arbetsmarknad.Som vanligt redovisas nya uppgifter om facklig organisationsgrad ochmedlemsutveckling, men även ny statistik om fackligt förtroendevalda,a-kassornas medlemsutveckling och organisationsgrad, kollektiva

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) is a main component in electrical aircraft and electric vehicles. Due to its advantages, it is gaining the attention of manufacturers. This machine is highly efficient and reliable. It has a high torque to weight ratio. Due to its criticality in application, we need to detect the faults at the initiation stage. The faults associated with PMSM can be electr

Temozolomide (TMZ) increases the overall survival of patients with glioblastoma (GBM), but its role in the clinical management of diffuse low-grade gliomas (LGG) is still being defined. DNA hypermethylation of the O (6) -methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter is associated with an improved response to TMZ treatment, while inactivation of the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) pathway is associ

This study explored the informational needs of individuals attending genetic counseling for hereditary cancer, using a free-choice and a forced choice method. Prior to the consultation the informational needs of 334 counselees from Sweden and Norway were assessed by the QUOTE-gene (ca) questionnaire and by a study specific forced choice method, using Q-methodology. Questionnaire responses indicate

From the Wunderkammern of Renaissance Europe to the curated vaults of today’s natural history museums, millions of insect specimens have been preserved, capturing an irreplaceable chronicle of biodiversity, including lineages that are rare, highly specialized, or already extinct. Yet their fragility has historically constrained genomic inquiry. Here, we apply museomic methodology to a >40-year-old

How does coalition participation influence party membership? We argue that parties that take part in coalition governments are likely to experience less favorable party membership developments than parties governing alone because of the compromises they have to agree on in multi-party cabinets. This should be particularly likely for parties in ideologically diverse coalition governments since part

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) continues to pose a major global health challenge, with incidence rising sharply and current therapies offering only symptomatic relief. This study builds on prior work into six structurally diverse multi-target compounds (1–6) designed to modulate key pathological processes in AD. We have now combined experimental and computational approaches to determine a set of pharmac

Control of crystallographic texture is key to improving the properties of piezoelectric ceramics, but it has so far mainly been realized in the form of fiber textures perpendicular to the dominant surface of simple 2.5D structures. This work demonstrates how grains in piezoelectric ceramics can be aligned in complex patterns and shapes via material extrusion-based additive manufacturing, specifica
