Nancy Frasers arbete är ett exempel på kritik som en rad teoretiker har riktat mot Marshall, och inte minst mot hans förgivettagande att nationen är den givna ram inom vilken medborgarskap, det vill säga rättigheter av olika slag, anordnas och tillhandahålls. Även om vi i dag lever i en tid av globalisering och världsomspännande migration där rörlighet är mer regel än undantag, så är nationalismen
Limited knowledge of African inequality trajectories hampers our understanding of the drivers of heterogenous inequality outcomes in Africa today, and leads to major omission in debates about global inequality. In recent years, African economic history has advanced towards the reconstruction of full income distributions of African economies using 'social tables'. In this paper, we take stock of th
Carbon emissions from buildings have inherently dynamic characteristics since buildings evolve over time. Most previous studies, however, implemented static building carbon regimes, ignoring the temporal variation of many factors that govern carbon emissions of buildings. This research explores the influences of four dynamic factors acting on building carbon emissions: dynamic climate change data,
The Volgo-Uralia segment, which constitutes one fourth of the East European Craton, is covered by sedimentary deposits. From geophysical studies and examination of thousands of drillcores, Volgo-Uralia has been recognised as a vast high-grade terrain with a complex crustal history extending from the Palaeoarchaean to the Palaeoproterozoic. Our recent studies are focused on the search for the oldes
Objectives A prospective randomised trial to compare two different durations of maintenance immunosuppressive therapy for the prevention of relapse in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). Methods P atients with AAV were recruited 18-24 months after diagnosis if they were in stable remission after cyclophosphamide/prednisolone-based induction followed by azathi
Previous research has documented intergenerational transmission of human capital from children to parents. Less is known, however, about heterogeneity in this 'upward transmission' in low-resource settings. We examine whether co-resident adult children's education is associated with improved health among older parents in India, using nationally representative data from the 2014 Indian National Sam
Vi har insett att det inte finns en tydlig definition av fenomenet konceptbutik. Vi upplever att innebörden av fenomenet därför anpassas till den egna verksamheten så att det blir vad man vill att det ska vara. Detta tror vi kan leda till förvirring kring vad en konceptbutik erbjuder och vad som förväntas av en sådan. Konceptbutiker handlar om att ge kunden något utöver det vanliga, där upplevelse
This thesis analyses the discourse of cultural heritage by taking the European Heritage Label (EHL) as a case study. The European Heritage Label is an organization established in 2011 by the European Union (EU) and created an application process for historical and cultural sites to be labelled as “European Heritage”. This thesis aims to critically analyse heritage as a concept that is used and pro
This thesis investigates a possible influence of language on thought in the domain of motion event descriptions using a cognitive-semiotic framework. Previous studies (e.g., von Stutterheim et al., 2012) have claimed that speakers of languages who construe situations as temporally ongoing through morphological aspect tend to focus more on the action itself and less on other details such as possibl
In 2018, the Swedish government decided to invest 350 million SEK in welfare technology as a response to the increasing population of the elderly. The aim of this study was to investigate implementation managers’ descriptions of their work and use of welfare technology. The interviews were conducted at three long-term facilities for the elderly in the municipality of Burlöv, Helsingborg, and Hässl
The West Bank attracts countless researchers due to the conflict’s intractable label. On one hand, these researchers are drawn to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict due to logistical reasons: accessibility to the area, academic prestige, ample funding, grant and networking opportunities. On the other, researchers are allured due to an Orientalist fascination with conducting fieldwork in the West Ban
Children's rights are a crucial area of research since children are among the most vulnerable groups in every society. The state laws, including the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), set out the rights of children and prescribes the obligations of governments and adults to ensure their protection, provision for their needs and grant them the right to participate in th
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of consumer generated advertising as a marketing tool to encourage online word of mouth. Subsequently, the researchers aim to examine if there are certain design factors in consumer generated advertising that influence the effectiveness of consumer generated advertising in encouraging online word of mouth. The study conducts a multiple
Children primarily learn about climate change (CC) through media, including children’s films. Films can influence emotions, shaping perceptions and actions regarding CC. However, research focusing on media narratives consumed by children is lacking, leaving a significant knowledge gap. To bridge this gap, this study employed narrative analysis, examining CC depictions in six children's animate
Worldwide, Indigenous peoples have played a critical role in preserving ecosystems and biodiversity. Historically oppressed by colonial institutions, they are today confronted with detrimental effects of the global food system and increasingly pronounced changes in climate that jeopardise their ability to produce food. In reaction to globalisation, food sovereignty advocates the right of peoples t
Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to critically explore how a regulatory, community and organizational stakeholder perceive their role in the context of sustainability reporting as well as identify convergence and divergence between these different stakeholder perceptions. Methodology: We chose a qualitative-abductive approach to our case study of sustainability reporting by interviewing th
Sammandrag Denna uppsats har sin utgångspunkt i min översättning av ett kapitel ur en nutida spansk filosofisk och populärvetenskaplig bok, El valor de educar av Fernando Savater (1997). Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att undersöka om textens komplexa karaktär och dess informationstäthet skulle kunna överföras till en svensk måltext som är idiomatisk och som samtidigt bevarar motsvarande innehåll
