This thesis analyses how welfare, entitlement and welfare subjects are discursively constructed in the policy process surrounding the proposed qualification requirements for social insurance benefits and financial assistance, as part of the Swedish social benefit reform, ‘bidragsreformen’. Drawing on Norman Fairclough’s three-dimensional model of discourse analysis, the study examines the governme
Background: Ventricular fibrillation (VF) during acute ischemia is linked to increased dispersion of ventricular repolarization (DOR), which is considered a robust marker of arrhythmic susceptibility. In previous works, we showed that a time-warping-based index quantifying morphological changes from the T-wave peak to the T-wave end over a PCA transform lead, dPCAw,Tpe, outperformed the T-peak-to-
Background: Developing new diagnostic imaging methods that provide detailed visualization of the histoanatomy of tissues and organs requires precise histomorphometric evaluation. With a particular focus on bowel, this study aimed to develop and validate a computer program for reliable and efficient assessment of bowel wall histomorphometry. Methods: A MATLAB-based computer program was developed in
Background: Local networks have been recognized for their potential to govern collaborative action toward a low-carbon future in urban areas, yet there is a need to learn more about the strengths and weaknesses of such governance structures. In this paper we assess the Local Roadmap for a Climate Neutral Building & Construction Industry in Malmö 2030 (LFM30) network which was initiated in 2018
I denna uppsats undersöks på vilka grunder en säljare kan göras ansvarig för skador som sålt gods orsakar i köparens näringsverksamhet. Säljarens ansvar enligt dispositiv rätt och enligt tre välspridda standardavtal (ABM 92, Avtal 90 och NL 92) studeras. Undersökningen omfattar säljarens ansvar både för skador på köparens egendom och förmögenhet. En viktig del av uppsatsen utgörs av att särskilja
Sedan slutet av 1980-talet då Lagen om målsägandebiträde (1988:609) introducerades har svenska sexualbrottsoffer haft rätt till ett särskilt juridiskt biträde i form av det statligt finansierade målsägandebiträdet. Den bakomliggande idén till lagens införande var att kvinnor som utsatts för sexuella övergrepp är i behov av extra stöd och hjälp genom det straffrättsliga förfarandet, särskilt under Since the late 1980s when the Counsel for Injured Party Act (1988:609) was introduced, Swedish victims of sexual assault have had the right to a special legal counsel in the form of a government funded counsel for injured party. The underlying idea behind the Act was that sexually assaulted women are in need of extra support and assistance through the legal proceedings, especially during the preli
Maternal mortality levels in most low middle income countries is not been the same over the past decades. Among these countries, some of them seem to have an improvement in reducing maternal mortality but the aggregate picture is indicated the regional progress as not that impressive. This is been the case because of the different social and economic policies that each low-middle income countries
In 2003, partly due to intense protests from the All Indian Democratic Women’s Association, the Indian state prohibited a commercial for skin lightening cream from continuing being aired on Indian television. The commercial indirectly suggests that a girl can neither get a well paid job, nor a husband to provide for her, due to her dark skin tone. Ashok Venkatramani, spokesman for the company prod
Today evaluation is a popular phenomenon within the public sector, but is the instrumental use of the results the only purpose it fills? This case study aims to investigate the use of evaluation in practical social work in municipals with focus on supportive contacts without documentation requirements based on a new institutional perspective. What purposes for evaluation can be identified, what in
It has been shown that the semi-arid environment of the Sahelian belt plays an important role in the global carbon uptake as the fluctuation of its primary productivity can be determinant for the global carbon uptake. The insect Schistocerca gregaria commonly known as the desert locust is a disturbance factor that can affect the vegetation productivity for consecutive seasons. In this study the de
The aim of the study is to research preschool teacher’s understanding and way of talking about ethnicity and diversity in two different municipalities. The design of the methods performed for the study was qualitative and seven interviews have been done to gather empirics. The interview guide was semi-structured in order to be able to keep a flexible approach through the interviews. The result sho
Problem description To develop strategic guidelines for the production that are in line with the vision and marketing strategies of the company. Purpose The purpose is two folded. The first part aims to facilitate future strategic decisions concerning manufacturing. The second is to illuminate why the company should take the manufacturing strategy into consideration when taking other strategic dec
The purpose of this study was to gain understanding of the student-athletes’ transition to a sport gymnasium (sport high school). The objectives were: (1) to explore the Dual Career Survey and Student Identity Measurement Scale, (2) to examine the dynamics during the first six month at the sport gymnasium in student-athletes (a) transition variables, (b) personal variables, (c) importance/satisfac

It is of central interest in membrane proteomics to establish methods that combine efficient solubilization with enrichment of proteins and intact protein complexes. We have investigated the quantitative and qualitative solubilization efficiency of five commercially available detergents using mitochondria from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae as model system. Combining the zwitterionic detergent
A terpyridine ligand has been covalently linked to a Ru(bpy)(3) complex via an amide bond. By using this functionalized terpyridine ligand, a series of multinuclear bimetallic complexes have been synthesized and characterized. One of these complexes has the structure of di-mu-oxobridged Mn dimer. EPR spectra of this complex showed that, depending on the procedure for the preparation, the oxidation
Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are being increasingly used as selective adsorbents in different analytical applications. To satisfy the different application purposes, MEN with well controlled physical forms in different size ranges are highly desirable. For examples, MIP nanoparticles are very suitable to be used to develop binding assays and for microfluidic separations, whereas MIP beads
