The article is a presentation of the basic activities of the Swedish language board during the years 1987-1998 when I was its president. New possibilities and demands opened up with the development of computer technology. At the end of the 80ies I became aware of the possible linguistic effects of globalization upon national languages like Swedish and questions of national language policy were foc

This book chapter discusses the revival of political and feminist performance in the 2000s.

Introduction: Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a powerful analytical technique for the identification of chemical compounds at low concentrations. Background: The presence of organic compounds at low concentrations that have not been previously identified in a sample may represent a significant risk to human health and safety. However, reliable identification remains challenging due t

The notion of design research entails research where design practice forms part of the knowledge production. Based on our characterization of the nature of design, we propose to conceptualize this kind of research as programmatic design research. Two ongoing PhD projects in interaction design are presented as examples of programmatic research processes, highlighting issues to do with the virtues a

The article presents and discusses a number of recent scholarly attempts to investigate theological and/or religious dimensions of music. On the basis of critical interpretations of these (Anglophone and German) contributions the article proposes an interdisciplinary approach to a theological aesthetics of music. Such a methodology necessitates any "theologizing" to respect the singular qualities

In children’s literature nonhuman primates are often represented either as ferocious beasts or as curios and charmful vicarious children. In this article I demonstrate how these different constructions interestingly coexist in the popular story ‘‘The monkey that would not kill’’, written by the Scottish evangelist and professor of the natural sciences Henry Drummond in 1891. My study anchors the f

In many applications, especially in the process industry, low-level controllers are the workhorses of the automated production lines. The aim of this study has been to provide simple tuning procedures, either optimization-based methods or tuning rules, for design of low-order controllers. The first part of this thesis deals with PID tuning. Design methods or both SISO and MIMO PID controllers bas

Den offentliga statistiken inom äldreomsorgsområdet är för närvarande begränsad till mängdstatistik (Statistik - socialtjänst 2000:5, Socialstyrelsen 2000 och Hälso- och sjukvårdsstatistisk årsbok 1999, Socialstyrelsen 2000). Från denna statistik erhålles uppgifter om antalet äldre som får vård och hjälp fördelade på ålder, kön och vårdinsats samt vårdkostnader. För att få insikt i äldreomsorgssys

It has been suggested that a parent–teacher–student conference should centre on the capacities and good qualities of the student. This article focuses on teacher discourse in situations where the students’ answers (in mathematics tests, written assignments etc.) are either entirely or almost entirely correct. The study shows that, in eight cases out of ten, the comments made reflect a “deficiency

Intervju med Richard Hobert om hela hans karriär men främst om filmserien om de sju dödssynderna, som då nått fram till filmen Ögat.

Rättsläget när det gäller att få en godkänd arbetsskada efter utmattningssyndrom är synnerligen oklart, och det är snarare regel än undantag att dessa ärenden avslås. Vi beskriver hur ett sådant ärende bedömts av Försäkringskassan och Länsrätten. Ärendet gick inte vidare till Kammarrätten, eftersom försäkringskassan godtog Länsrättens dom. Därmed är inte domen vägledande rent juridiskt, men utslag

By tradition the humanities have been anthropocentrically focused on the lives of human beings in arts and literature. The limited analysis of what other species do in literature – and of the different relations between humans and animals that are represented – has sustained the notion of a hierachical divide between humans and other species, thereby reducing the ethical potential of literature to

Todorov´s distinction between theoretical genres and historical genres are logically analyzed, the first being classes, the second cultural, social facts. The theoretical genres cannot, according to Todorov, be falsified or verified. This is on account of the rule saying that the language of object and the metalanguage must not be mixed. But this mixing is always present in ordinary language, in l
