This essay concerns the use of judicial preview and review in Sweden and Germany. First, it is presented how judicial preview and review works in each respective system, and then the procedure of the enactment of a law is presented. In the analysis it is discussed how differently the law would've been treated, if Sweden had the same judicial review as in Germany. The conclusion is that the gr
This thesis examines how learning is depicted in policy documents for public libraries on municipal and national level in Sweden. The documents analyzed are library plans from five Swedish cities, as well as the proposal for a national strategy presented in 2019 by the National Library of Sweden. The method used is Carol Bacchi’s What’s the problem represented to be-approach. Pierre Bourdieu’s the
The extent to which in-situ global mechanical tensioning (GMT) can be used to modify the residual stress state in friction stir (FS) welds is investigated in this article. Residual stress distributions have been determined by synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction for four sets of FS welds in high-strength AA7449-W51 and lithium containing AA2199-T8 aerospace aluminum alloys subjected to a syst
This dissertation aims to investigate and analyze people's preparation for retirement. The study has been made through semi-structured interviews with 78 people born between the years 1931-1981 regarding their preparations for retirement. The analysis is based on the model Reflexive Planning for Later Life, coping, bounded rationality, behavioural finance and the concept of governmentality, and
Sweden's connections to and relationships with the European and wider world is a field of study attracting considerable scholarly attention. The essays here, from archaeologists and historians, offer a new perspective on early modern Sweden as deeply affected by the increasing internationality of the 16th-18th centuries. Set in the socio-political context of an expanding and changing kingdom, they
Ett antal studier har visat att buller har negativa hälsoeffekter (Barregård et al. 2005; Rosvall et al. 2009; Nilsson, Eriksson & Palmqvist 2009). Exempel på problem som kan uppstå på grund av buller är sömnsvårigheter, hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar, minskad inlärning och reducerad kognitiv förmåga (Berglund, Lindvall & Schwela 1999). Dessa typer av hälsoproblem leder till lidande för den enskNoise has negative health effects according to a number of studies (Barregård et al. 2005; Rosvall et al. 2009; Nilsson, Eriksson & Palmqvist 2009). Example of problems that can occur from exposure to noise is sleeping disturbances, heart diseases, lessened learning and reduced cognitive performance (Berglund, Lindvall & Schwela 1999). This kind of problems cause suffering on a personal le
Microplastics (MPs) in biosolids used as soil amendments are of growing concern. The purpose of this study was to improve the characterization of MPs in complex biosolid matrices by optimizing sample preparation for morphological and chemical analyses with different spectroscopic techniques. We compared extraction procedures involving Fenton oxidation (F), Fenton plus sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS),
The Andean lakes of northern Chile and southern Bolivia are characterized by their high salinity due to arid climate and high evaporation. These lakes are poorly studied due to access difficulties. The aim of this study is to characterize two shallow saline lakes in northern Chile (Salar de Atacama, 23°S, Chile) and South Lipez of Bolivia (Khalina lake, 22.61°S) using satellite images (Landsat 8).
With the shift toward de-escalating surgery in breast cancer, prediction models incorporating imaging can reassess the need for surgical axillary staging. This study employed advancements in deep learning to comprehensively evaluate routine mammograms for preoperative lymph node metastasis prediction. Mammograms and clinicopathological data from 1265 cN0 T1-T2 breast cancer patients (primary surge
Spectroscopic imaging is a widely employed diagnostic approach with applications span-ning several different disciplines. Although color-sensitive cameras are very common and used for everyday photography, scientific applications often require highly specific color sensitivity to avoid signal cross-talk and misinterpretations. Such systems are primarily based on sequential acquisition configuratio
How can cities and communities around the world become more sustainable? What can we do as researchers to help them? As we move through the twenty-first century, these questions assume ever-greater importance. Many of the quickest wins for human and planetary health involve reimagining and reconfiguring cities. Activities that generate negative impacts like air pollution and poor health are concen
Objectives: In India, cervical cancer is the most common cancer among women and makes up for up to 29% of all registered cancer in females. Cancer-related pain is one of the major distressing symptoms for all cancer patients. Pain is characterised as somatic or neuropathic, and the total pain experience is often mixed. Conventional opioids are the backbone of analgesic treatment but are most often
This case note discusses Swedish Labour Court case No. 33 of 2023 (AD 2023:33). The case involved a fixed-term worker employed as a personal assistant under a specific form of fixed-term contract regulated by collective agreement. The trade union sought to have the employment contract converted into a contract of indefinite duration and the form of fixed-term employment used to be declared invalid
Place branding is defined as “the development of brands for geographic locationswith the aim of triggering positive associations about the area and distinguishinga place from other places” (Stevens et al., 2020, p. 752). Like all occupations,place branding is organised by discourses, or talk, that determine best practices andnorms about what constitutes expertise (Loacker and Sullivan, 2016). Expl
The UPCA for the first time establishes harmonized exceptions and limitations to the effects of granted patent rights. Previously these were the sole province of national law but a with a degree of similarity.This chapter briefly analyses the historical origin, legal nature and scope of Article 27 UPCA, the future harmonizing effect of UPCA patent limitations, followed by a discussion on each limi
