Whenever a material object is selected to represent a physically absent, but emotionally present referent, such as a religious figure or a deceased relative, we have a complex representation situation that involves what we could tentatively label “transgressive cognitive acts”. A transgressive cognitive act is here meant to involve a part that is experienced as present, and as having an effect, bu
The maternal temperature is normally increasing during delivery. Maternal fever in labor is a common problem.Such fever could represent a chorioamnionitis (CAM), leading to an increased risk of neonatal encephalopathy andsubsequent cerebral palsy, as well as other complications. There are also noninfectious reasons for elevatedtemperature during delivery. There is no fetal heart rate that is speci
Utopia – the word is simultaneously evocative of hope and dread. As a concept it is stupendously problematic, and yet despite its alleged passing into irrelevance, utopia still remains a household word. Why is this so?Utopia has been reduced to a category. We place a solution in the category of the utopian or, conversely, the not-utopian. Without fail, discussions involving utopia will eventually
Experience with tranexamic acid, an indirect fibrinolytic inhibitor, started as soon as it was released from Shosuke Okamoto's lab in the early 1960s. It was first prescribed to females with heavy menstrual blood loss and to patients with hereditary bleeding disorders. Soon the indications were widened to elective surgery because of its blood saving effects. Contraindications are few, most importa
The general aim of the thesis was to contribute to a more evidenced based framework in the surgical treatment of diseases in the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ), by comparing outcome, measured by complication and survival rates, and evaluate different reconstructions regarding long-term symptoms and quality of life (QoL). The GEJ is a poorly defined anatomic area that represents the lower part of
Background Kenya is facing social and economic problems related to the high unemployment rate the country has suffered since independence. The Kenyan government are placing a lot, if not all, eggs in one basket and betting on entrepreneurship to solve these problem. For entrepreneurship to thrive there needs to be an ecosystem facilitating it and inherent in this ecosystem are support organisation
Detta examensarbete är inspirerat av den slöjdebatt som sker i Sverige idag, angående huruvida ett slöjförbud bör införas i den svenska för- och grundskolan. Arbetet intar ett straffrättsligt perspektiv på frågan och undersöker hur argumenten som framförs av politiska förespråkare, i ett par utvalda motioner, förhåller sig till Nils Jareborgs och Claes Lernestedts kriminalrättsliga grundprinciper.This essay is inspired by the debate in Sweden today, about whether a ban on veiling should be introduced in the Swedish preschools and elementary schools. With a criminal-law perspective, this essay examines motions filed by political advocates for a ban and evaluates the compatibility of their arguments to Nils Jareborg's and Claes Lernestedt's criminalization principles. Simultaneously,
Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda om Sveriges införande av det ekonomiska arbetsgivarbegreppet ger önskad effekt. Syftet med begreppets inkorporering i lagstiftningen är att skapa konkurrensneutrala regler där företag inte ska anställa på grund av skatteregler utan på affärsmässiga grunder. Begreppet är sedan tidigare känt på global nivå och innebär att arbetstagare inte bara har sin legala arbetsgivThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether Sweden's introduction of the economic employer concept have had the desired effect. The purpose of the concept's incorporation into legislation is to create competition - neutral rules where companies are not to be employed due to tax rules but on commercial grounds. The concept is already known on a global level and means that employees
I en allt mer globaliserad värld och efter den digitala revolutionen, har skyddet för personuppgifter hamnat i rampljuset. Numera, utbyts data över nätet dagligen för olika syften, såsom privata, kommersiella och allmänna, vilket har skapat en oro för hur dessa överföringar av personuppgifter kan påverka rätten till dataskydd och rätten till privatliv. Inom EU har det funnits en tradition av att In an increasingly globalized world and after a decade of digital revolution, the protection of personal data has fallen in the limelight. Nowadays, data is exchanged over the internet daily for various purposes, including strictly private, commercial, as well as public, which has raised concerns on how these transfers of personal data may affect the right to data protection and the right to priva
Runt om i den Europeiska unionen (EU) utnyttjas den fria rörligheten i större utsträckning än tidigare. Företag flyttar över nationsgränserna och med företagen kommer arbetstagarna och deras familjer. Idag sträcker sig allt fler familjeband över nationsgränserna och i och med det har också familjerätten tagit steget från att ha varit nationell till att bli allt mer internationell. Inom EU finns Within the European Union (EU), the freedom of movement guaranteed in the Treaties has increased significantly the last decade. Companies may move their establishment from one Member State to another and with the companies, the employees and their families follow. An effect of the integration within the European Union is a high level of cross-border family relationships. As a result, family law ha
Photosynthesis is performed by a multitude of organisms, but in P nearly all cases, it is variations on a common theme: absorption of light followed by energy transfer to a reaction center where charge separation takes place, This initial form of chemical energy is stabilized by the biosynthesis of carbohydrates. To produce these energy-rich products, a substrate is needed that feeds in reductive
Popular Abstract in Swedish Föräldrars involvering i skolan har under de senaste decennierna betonats allt mer i skoldebatten. Länge betraktades skolutbildning som enbart ett samhälleligt ansvar, vilket ofta medförde ett markerat avståndstagande från familjen och föräldrarna. Likt andra samhälleliga servicefunktioner har emellertid också skolan i sitt förhållande till sina användare undergått en fOver the last two decades, educational reforms have stimulated an enormous growth in innovative school thinking, effecting both independent schools and mainstream education. Parents and interest groups, previously excluded from general pedagogic practice and planning, are now faced with new opportunities and responsibilities. Parents “invest” in these newly won options in very different ways. Fail
Skogar har en positiv inverkan på halten av växthusgaser i atmosfären eftersom de binder koldioxid via fotsyntesen och lagrar kol i marken. Dessutom utgör många skogar en betydande sänka för växthusgasen metan. Upptaget av metan sker i väl syresatta marker genom oxidation utförd av metanotrofa bakterier. Däremot sker en nettoproduktion av metan i syrefattiga skogsmarker när mikroorganismer, s.k. aPopular Abstract in English Forests have a positive impact on the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere because they absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and store carbon in the soil. Moreover, many forests function as a sink for the greenhouse gas methane (CH4). The uptake of CH4 takes place in well-aerated soils through oxidation by methanotrophic bacteria. However, there is a net
The microflora of Herrgård cheese produced at three dairies was compared after three and six months maturation. The microflora of cheeses from two of the dairies was dominated by a spontaneous microflora of Lactobacillus after three months of ripening, while starter bacteria still dominated in cheese from the third dairy after six months. Isolates were typed by the PCR-based method Randomly
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det har blivit vanligt med beskrivningar av hur olika trender påverkar det sätt på vilket arbetslivet utformas. I första hand rör det sig om informationsteknikens inflytande inom i stort sett alla samhällsområden men det handlar också om en globaliserad ekonomi, ökad konkurrens, samt strävan efter högre kvalitet och större flexibilitet. Denna utveckling kan förstås som The study explores the interaction of general management ideas like TQM (here referred to as technocratic visions) and microprocesses of narrating and organizing in two different contexts: the public sector (health care) and the private sector (manufacturing) in Sweden. The purpose is to provide a better understanding of what happens when models of this type are introduced into a work organization
The red admiral (Vanessa atalanta) is a migratory butterfly that can be found in North America, North Africa, Europe and some parts of Asia. In Europe the main part of the population spend winter in the Mediterranean region and the following spring leave this area to breed further to the north. At least one new generation is then produced in the summer region before they return to the south again
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund Denna studie är en undersökning av barns musikskapande med synthesizer och dator. I studien deltog nio barn i åttaårsåldern. Musik utgör en viktig del i barns och ungdomars vardag och den stora exponering för musik som sker i vårt samhälle innebär att ingen är någon musikalisk nybörjare. Det är väl känt att barn kan skapa musik på egen hand, mest är det dock bToday’s children live in a world where music in all its different forms has become a significant factor in their everyday life. From earlier research we know that young children are able to create music by singing and using musical instruments. The present study was undertaken with eight-year-old children in school year 2 in order to investigate the children’s composing and composition processes u
Popular Abstract in Swedish Medborgarlön - ett statligt bidrag som ges till alla medborgare utan inkomst- eller behovsprövning - har varit flitigt diskuterat inom akademiska kretsar under senare år. Bland argumenten för medborgarlön återfinns att det antas ge ett erkännande åt obetalt arbete inom hemmet, en mer jämlik fördelning av lönearbete genom att uppmuntra deltidsarbete, leda till minskad ofBasic income - an income granted by the government to each full member of society without means tests or work requirements - has been a widely discussed subject among academics in recent years. However, basic income has not, in most cases, reached the formal political agenda. The main aim of this book is to discuss why this is the case, with Sweden as the focus of the discussion. The aim is also t
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det finns en schablonblid av dopseden förr och nu. Lite karikerat skulle den kunna sägas se ut på följande sätt. Förr döptes alla barn. Skälen till att man döpte sina barn var djupt religiösa. Så kom baptismen och bröt barndopsseden. När baptisterna slutade döpa sina barn och sekulariseringesvågen blev allt starkare följde snart många efter. Idag döps barnen framfö alltFrom the time of the establishment of Christianity in Sweden to the middle of the Nineteenth Century all childeren were baptised. In Örebro, in central Sweden, the baptism custom was subsequently broken and weakend. Örebro is in many ways an extreme case. In 1910 only 82 percent of children were baptised. The old dodparent custom was almost extingct in 1910. The dissertation shows the course of ch
Thirteen piston and gravity cores from the Faroe-Shetland area were investigated for their planktic and benthic foraminiferal and oxygen isotopic distributions. Eight time-slices between 18 ka BP and the present were reconstructed to study variations in surface and deep water exchange between the SE Norwegian Sea and the northeast Atlantic Ocean. Today, a relatively strong northward flow of warm N
