Evolution of chain migration in an aerial insectivorous bird, the common swift Apus apus

Spectacular long-distance migration has evolved repeatedly in animals enabling exploration of resources separated in time and space. In birds, these patterns are largely driven by seasonality, cost of migration, and asymmetries in competition leading most often to leapfrog migration, where northern breeding populations winter furthest to the south. Here, we show that the highly aerial common swift

German Surveillance of the Swedish Film Market during World War II

This article approaches the subject of German film policy in Sweden during World War II from a new perspective. While several film scholars have mapped the connections between the German and Swedish film industries in the past, less is known about the German surveillance of Swedish film criticism, Swedish cinema audiences and Allied newsreel competitors. Drawing on previously overlooked archival m

‘Short Film of the Year–A Nazi Rite of Passage’ : Gösta Werner and the Making of The Sacrifice (1945)

This article reconsiders the Swedish filmmaker Gösta Werner’s experimental short film The Sacrifice (Midvinterblot, 1945) and places its production history in an ideological context. In this case study, the article shows that The Sacrifice, which depicts gruesome old Norse pagan rituals of sacrifice, threw light on the director’s collaboration with the Nazi controlled German film company Universum

Mobility and Marginalization : Arne Sucksdorff’s Documentary Authorship in India and Brazil

Swedish filmmaker Arne Sucksdorff was recognized as an innovative documentary filmmaker in the 1940s and 1950s, but once his production moved internationally - first to India and then to Brazil - the authorial discourse on his production changed dramatically. This chapter maps the transnational production and circulation of his feature length documentaries The Flute and the Arrow (En djungelsaga,

Moral preferences in helping dilemmas expressed by matching and forced choice

This paper asks whether moral preferences in eight medical dilemmas change as a function of how preferences are expressed, and how people choose when they are faced with two equally attractive help projects. In two large-scale studies, participants first read dilemmas where they “matched” two suggested helping projects (which varied on a single attribute) so that they became equally attractive. Th

Ett filmbolag i det allmännas tjänst? : Svensk Filmindustri och skolfilmens flytande gränser

Under flera decennier var Svensk filmindustri (SF) Sveriges ledande producent och distributör av film till landets skolor. I detta kapitel analyseras hur denna privata aktör positionerade sig gentemot samhället under decennierna efter andra världskriget. Genom att studera tidskriften Svensk skolfilm och bildningsfilm visar kapitlet på att gränserna mellan begrepp som ”skolfilm”, ”bildningsfilm” oc

Två tillstånd som inte bara psykiatrer bör känna till : Malignt neuroleptikasyndrom och serotonergt syndrom är två tillstånd som det är viktigt att även andra läkare än psykiatrer tänker på och känner igen

Malignt neuroleptikasyndrom och serotonergt syndrom är två tillstånd som det är viktigt att även andra läkare än psykiatrer tänker på och känner igen. Petra Truedsson och medförfattare beskriver helt riktigt i en översikt i Läkartidningen [1] att det skulle behövas bättre kvalitet i det vetenskapliga underlaget för behandling av dessa tillstånd, i synnerhet för malignt neuroleptikasyndrom som är f

Normative Encounters between the ‘Global’ and the ‘Local’: : Women, Peace and Security in Mali and Rwanda

This thesis examines the multiple and often overlapping encounters between ‘global’ and ‘local’ norms, actors, practices, and discourses which take place when norms travel between different socio-political contexts. This is done through a study of how global gender equality norms embedded in the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda are promoted in two war to peace transitions: Mali and Rwanda. S

Hemlös men inte bostadslös

Bostadsbrist är ett faktum för många hushåll, i betydelsen att de upplever påtagliga brister i sitt boende. Bristerna kan bestå i trångboddhet, kvalitetsbrister, bostad långt från arbete eller socialt sammanhang, höga bostadsutgifter eller osäker besittning till boendet (Bengtsson, 2020). För vissa hushåll är bristen närmast total och de saknar den basala tryggheten av ett säkert utrymme för perso
