This Master's thesis concerns the classification of compact discs according to the Swedish classification system, SAB. The purpose of this thesis is to critically study and discuss category Y of the SAB-system and its application in Swedish public libraries. The classification system has undergone great changes from the first edition in 1921 until today. In 1921 there were no musical recording
Get married is the rite of passage that coincides with exit from the parental household, solemnizing the establishment of a new household and commitment to a sexual partner (Allan, G. et al, 2003:135), which is a ubiquitous phenomenon across human society. Almost all adult men and women seek to marry or form a permanent stable relationship with another person for the sake of bear children and rais
The thesis examines jurisdiction in the United States in contractual relationships established over the Internet. The presentation is divided into six chapters and the first pair describes Internet contract types and the evolution of the jurisdictional doctrine. The second pair of chapters is a mix of descriptive and analytical content regarding case law and the debate in the legal community. The
“Recruitment as a Part of the Dialogue – an Exploration of Different Experiences and Views of Social Media in the Recruitment Process”. The thesis you’re about to read is based on the new possibilities of communication that social media can enable in the recruitment process. The aim of the study has been to explore the relatively unexplored area of social media connected to HR. Theories used conce
Since the elections of 2010 there are 14 per cent women in the Colombian congress - a remarkably low number in comparison with several other countries in Latin America where quotas of allocation are common. Decades of armed conflict might give a hint of why gender progress has been slow in Colombia, but at the same time as stereotyped gender roles are highly dominating, women are in no sense passi
Several governments recently adopted strategies to facilitate the development of artificial intelligence (AI), one of the reasons being the pursuit of sustainability – a claim with little scientific grounding so far. In this thesis, I strived to outline the scope of AI’s potentials by showing i) the limits of its theoretical and practical usefulness and ii) the political barriers to using it for s
Samerna har levt i Sverige sedan tiden före kolonisering och landgränser. Trots det erkänner den svenska staten inte någon äganderätt till land och de har enbart vissa rättigheter inom sina traditionella landområden. Sverige har fått internationell kritik upprepade gånger för hur man behandlar samerna. Rätten till land och vatten liksom rätten till självbestämmande är omdiskuterade frågor som ejThe Sami have lived in Sweden since the time before colonization and land borders. Nevertheless, the Swedish state doesn’t recognize any ownership of land and only some rights within their traditional land. Sweden has received international criticism repeatedly for the treatment of the Sami. The right to land and water, as well as the right to self-determination, are debated issues that haven’t b
En advokat bär på kontraktsrättslig grund ett ansvar gentemot sin klient. Om advokaten vållar sin klient skada genom oaktsamhet ska denne ersätta klienten för skadan. Det finns inte någon särskild lag som klargör skadeståndsansvaret för advokater men på bara de senaste två åren har Högsta Domstolen prövat två mål som handlar om advokaters skadeståndsansvar gentemot sina klienter. FörutsättningarA lawyer is, under contract law, liable to his client for any damage caused as a result of careless consulting. If the lawyer causes his client harm through negligence, he must compensate the client for the damage. There is no specific Swedish law that clarifies liability for lawyers, but in the last two years, the Supreme Court has tried two cases that deal with lawyers' liability towards the
Reliable data on familial risks are important for clinical counselling and cancer genetics. However, the estimates of familial risk of gastric cancer vary widely. We examined the risk of familial gastric cancer using the updated Swedish Family-Cancer Database with 5358 patients among offspring and 36 486 patients among parents. There were 133 families with one parent and one offspring diagnosed wi
Twin studies on cancer have addressed two general questions, one about the possible carcinogenic effects of twinning and the second about heritable effects of cancer. The first question is answered by comparing the occurrence of cancer in twins to that in singletons; the second is answered in probandwise analysis of monozygotic twins compared to dizygotic twins or siblings. We used the nationwide
Carcinoids are rare neuroendocrine tumors, mainly located in the bowel, stomach and lung. Familial risks in carcinoid tumours are not well known apart from multiple endocrine neoplasia 1 (MEN1). We used the nation-wide Swedish Family-Cancer Database on 10.1 million individuals for assessment. Carcinoid tumors were retrieved from the Cancer Registry covering the years 1958-1998. The offspring gener
In this chapter it is argued that Mary Wollstonecraft’s political is best characterized as ‘feminist republicanism’. Wollstonecraft’s feminism challenges republicanism from within. The republican movement used the language of rights and liberty in arguments for popular sovereignty and against despotic and aristocratic privilege. Wollstonecraft articulated her feminism within and against this movem
Introduction/Objectives: The meta-analytical prevalence of paternal postnatal depression (PPND) is 8.4% (Cameron et al., 2016). However, measures for PPND are scarce and the commonly used Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) has low sensitivity, as many men express depression with somatization and/or externalizing symptoms. Recent studies show higher prevalences, indicating that affected me
An important image processing step in spinal cord magnetic resonance imaging is the ability to reliably and accurately segment grey and white matter for tissue specific analysis. There are several semi- or fully-automated segmentation methods for cervical cord cross-sectional area measurement with an excellent performance close or equal to the manual segmentation. However, grey matter segmentation
Growing evidence suggests a consistent association between atrial fibrillation (AF) and cognitive impairment and dementia that is independent of clinical stroke. This report from the AF-SCREEN International Collaboration summarizes the evidence linking AF to cognitive impairment and dementia. It provides guidance on the investigation and management of dementia in patients with AF on the basis of b
Background: While HPV vaccination uptake in Sweden is quite high, at around 80%, vaccine hesitancy remains an issue in countries throughout Europe. The latter can be related to a contemporary context of increased contestation of expert knowledge and of a large share of information on health-related issues including vaccination today being sought via the internet. Still, there is a paucity of recen
As smart and as stupid, as well- and ill-informed, as curious and closed-minded as any random sample, tourists represent a unique object of study, as they are “the last remaining class that exhibits consciousness for itself” (MacCannell, 2013 p.xix). Technology has been transforming the tourist experience deeply, as it both fulfils a functional purpose of performing tasks for humans, and it holds
This thesis focuses on conduct rules in criminal law. Such rules prohibit, proscribe and permit different courses of conduct that individuals are obligated to, or in the case of permissions, allowed to follow. The correlates to conduct rules are criminal adjudication rules. As a result, very little has been said in the literature about conduct rules and how they function. This knowledge gap raises
This paper is a contribution to the zooarchaeological research on animals or animal parts found in human graves during the Middle Bronze Age in Greece. The animal bones from the early Middle Helladic settlement (MH I-II, c. 2100-1800 BC) and contemporary burials at Asine are presented. The goal is to compare the animal bones from the settlement with those from the burials, in terms of species comp
Katalys är ryggraden i många processer i vardagen. Även människokroppen styrs huvudsakligen av katalysatorer. Detta viktiga koncept tillåter oss att på ett miljövänligt sätt konvertera råmaterial som råolja och naturgas till värdefulla och oersättliga produkter, till exempel motorbränslen, läkemedel och agrokemikalier. En katalysprocess drivs av en katalysator, vilket således är en substans som, uNew classes of N-heterocyclic carbene-palladium(II) complexes containing either a vinyl group in different positions or an anthracene tag in the backbone of the N-heterocycle were synthesized and fully characterized. The vinyl based complexes were copolymerized with divinylbenzene to fabricate robust polymer-supported NHC-Pd(II) systems, while the anthracene based complexes were π-stacked onto the
