Today, two great signs of change are occurring. On the one hand, the capitalist world economy is putting tremendous pressure on the earth’s biosphere and bringing an onslaught of destruction to immediate environments and vulnerable people worldwide. On the other hand, the rise of new and progressive social-economic foundations is the result of an unprecedented increase of information and communica
PURPOSE: To develop and assess a technique for self-gated fetal cardiac cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using tiny golden angle radial sampling combined with iGRASP (iterative Golden-angle RAdial Sparse Parallel) for accelerated acquisition based on parallel imaging and compressed sensing.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Fetal cardiac data were acquired from five volunteers in gestational week 29-37 a
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is associated with certain MHC class II alleles and is characterized by a chronic autoimmune response in the joints. Using transgenic mice expressing human DR4 (DRB1*0401) and human CD4, but lacking endogenous MHC class II, we show that posttranslational glycosylation of type II collagen (CII) influences the level of T cell tolerance to this candidate cartilage-specific a
By employing seven semi-structured interviews with local judges and prosecutors in Kosovo, this study aims at examining how the European Union Rule of Law Mission (EULEX) has impacted the legal order in Kosovo and the practice of the judges and prosecutors. In addition, this study examines how the impacts of EULEX, and how the judges and prosecutors will be affected after the EULEX are withdrawn f
The thriving far-right has been transforming social and political space in Western Democracies for decades. Yet despite the contemporary ecological crisis and other environmental problems, there is a considerable lack of research on the far-right’s positions on nature. The aim of this thesis is to contribute to filling the research gap and to investigate the ideological relations between the far-r
Supported Iridium pincer complexes were used to study gas-phase isopropanol dehydrogenation under continuous flow system at temperatures 200-260 °C with different flow rates. First supported catalyst was [Ir(C2H4)(p-tBu2PO-tBu4POCOP)] supported by covalent bonding to silica, the second one was [Ir(HCl)(p-HO2C- tBu4POCOP)] supported by adsorption to γ-Alumina. The highest activity of catalyst 1 w
The study aims to understand and map the influential factors affecting the degree of implementation of the EU Renewable Energy Directive, RED, in Poland, which sets individual national goals for all member states of the total share of renewable energy sources, RES, by the year 2020, a goal Poland is anticipated to fail to reach. The study is a within-case study conducted through a process-tracing
This thesis is a historical study concerned with the impact of North Sea oil on British politics during the 1970's and 80's. Vast quantities of oil sedimented beneath the waves within the UK continental shelf – hundreds of miles of the north-east coast of Scotland – attracted oil barons and transnational majors to the hostile waters of the North Sea in the early 1970's. It was Margaret
This study analyzes the memory of Rosenhagen, a People’s Park in Anderslöv. The Park was founded in 1930 by the local labor movement and has since then served varied, but important functions in the community. In January 2022, the main building in the Park was burned down in arson, which initiated a process within the association to write down the history of the Park to make sure that Rosenhagen wo
The aim of this study is to investigate how staff who work with persons with mental impairment living in supportive housing describe and reflect on the clients´ self-determination and which options and challenges they experience with respect to putting the intent of the Swedish act concerning support and service for people with certain functional impairments (LSS) regarding self-determination into
The aim of this study is to investigate how John Marsden’s Tomorrow, when the war began (1993) could be used for reading-between-the-lines practice in the English language classroom. It answers questions relating to how reading between the lines can be understood in relation to Grice’s cooperative principle, the effects of implicature in the text and how teachers can use this information to facili

Finding a solution to automatically identify tree crowns in has been a well discussed topic in the academic community. Different ideas have been put to practice, with researches mainly targeting coniferous forests. In a global context, papers concerning deciduous trees are rare and their results differ in relation to their respective study zone. Segmentation-based methodologies are a newcomer in t
Work in developmental pragmatics has shown that even though infants display refined mindreading abilities, older children struggle to understand language phenomena that rely on mindreading. This apparent mismatch might be partially explained by considering children's growing sensitivity to social categories such as their interlocutor's age. Based on recent work in philosophy of mind, we investigat
