This paper explores intensive motherhood and educational desires in contemporary Singapore. Singapore’s education system is globally renowned for its high academic standards and for producing students who excel in international assessment tests and rankings. At the same time, there has been a shift of attention in education policy towards social-emotional competencies and well-being. While a top-n

Non-linear acoustic methods has shown increasing potential in the identication of damage in brittle materials such as concrete. Commonly, these methods focus on one or several resonance frequencies of the material and on the relative change in resonance frequency and attenuation with strain amplitude which has been shown to allow one to identify the extent of the material damage. However, current
All languages borrow words from other languages. Some languages are more prone to borrowing, while others borrow less, and different domains of the vocabulary are unequally susceptible to borrowing. Languages typically borrow words when a new concept is introduced, but languages may also borrow a new word for an already existing concept. Linguists describe two causalities for borrowing: need, i.e.
Over the past three decades, numbers, particularly those that can be expressed in financial terms, have come to be presented as a form of truth. Today, numbers guide and govern us, and shape and influence who we are, or who we should try to become (Kurunmäki et al., 2016). A few decades ago, this quantifying movement was restricted to a few fields. Today, however, it appears as if no one can escap
According to the cost-of-capital hypothesis, increased voluntary disclosure should reduce information asymmetries, lower the cost of capital, and increase firm value. The optimal-disclosure hypothesis, however, predicts that costs related to voluntary disclosure lead to the existence of an interior optimum of disclosure that maximizes firm value. These hypotheses are empirically tested using a pre

Researchers and students from the University of Cambridge and Lund University met at this year’s sustainability conference with a shared goal: to develop new interdisciplinary knowledge and scale up the solutions that already exist to tackle the urgent crises of our time – from climate change and collapsing ecosystems to a transforming energy sector. ‘The problems are so complex that we must work

I detta examensarbete testades och jämfördes olika instuderingsmetoder under en begränsad period. Syftet var att hitta nya verktyg samt öka förståelsen för de faktorer som leder till effektiv inlärning. Förhoppningen var att minska frustration. Teknikerna som provades var slowing, chunking och separation och musiken som studerades var tre satser ur Galliards Sonater 1–3. För att lättare bedömaIn this thesis, different study techniques were tested over a limited period of time. The purpose was both to find new tools and to increase the knowledge of the different factors involved in effective learning, with the goal of diminishing practice frustration. Three techniques were used; slowing, chunking and separation. The music selected was three movements from Galliard’s Sonata 1-3. In o
The direct involvement of the human leukocyte antigen class II DR-DQ genes in type 1 diabetes (T1D) is well established, and these genes display a complex hierarchy of risk effects at the genotype and haplotype levels. We investigated, using data from 38 studies, whether the DR-DQ haplotypes and genotypes show the same relative predispositional effects across populations and ethnic groups. Signifi

Global Dynamic Engagement (GDE) further develops previous strategic work on internationalisation and builds on existing collaborations at the University. The work is based on continuous analysis of the world around us. Using this as a starting point, the University produces documentation each year in the form of a framework for the geographical areas where we are engaged, as well as roadmaps outli

Strategies to determine the removal efficiency of micropollutants in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are widely discussed. Especially the evaluation of the potential benefit of further advanced treatment steps such as an additional tertiary treatment based on ozonation or activated carbon have come into focus. Such evaluation strategies are often based on the removal behavior of known micropol
I och med Sveriges medlemskap i EU 1995 skedde en förändring i rättsordningen då EU-rätten överställdes nationell rätt med målet att främja den inre marknaden. Vad gäller direkta skatteområdet finns det dock ett undantag där skattesuveränitet gavs till medlemsstaterna. Av EUD-praxis har framkommit senare att medlemsstaterna trots allt måste beakta kravet på fri rörlighet då de nationella lagarna uDue to Sweden's membership in the EU in 1995, national law became subordinated under the EU law with the aim of promoting the internal market. As regards direct taxation, there is an exception where the tax sovereignty was given to the member states. The Court of Justice of the European Union (ECJ) practices have emerged later that the member states must nevertheless observe the requirement of
Denna uppsats undersöker de sedvanerättsliga reglerna om immunitet för statschefer och andra högt uppsatta statsrepresentanter. Syftet är att göra en övergripande kartläggning av reglernas innehåll som möjliggör korrekt rättstillämpning i framtiden. Genom att granska konventioner, kodifieringar, rättsfall och doktrin om ämnet, samt genom att undersöka det pågående kodifikationsarbetet, kartläggs rThis essay examines the rules of immunity for heads of state and other high-ranking state officials under international law. The aim is to create a comprehensive outline of the content of the rules, enabling a more accurate and legal-ly sound practice in the future.
