I denna uppsats utreder vi den territoriellt avgränsade nationalstatens möjligheter att hantera transnationella flöden. Sedan globaliseringens intensifiering under 1900-talets senare hälft har de politiska subjekten med nödvändighet börjat röra sig över nationsgränserna i allt högre utsträckning. Uppsatsen består av tre teoridelar och avslutas med en diskussion. I första delen presenterar vi en hi

Att lära sig ett främmande språk som grekiska är varken svårare eller lättare än att lära sig andra språk, men det tar tid och innebär en hel del arbete. Denna grundläggande lärobok i nytestamentlig grekiska innehåller allt det du behöver för att kunna börja läsa Nya testamentet på dess grundspråk. Nytestamentlig grekiska inleds med en presentation av det grekiska alfabetet, dess tecken och uttal

We use historical data on union density and new historical data on policies toward migrants to study the long-run relationship between the strength of trade unions and the social and economic rights of migrants in the Global North. In countries with strong trade unions, there was, for a long time, a widening distance between the rights of migrants and the rights of citizens, probably because the r

Popular Abstract in Swedish Jungfru Marie nycklar och skogsnycklar: systematik, evolution och invandringshistoria Jungfru Marie nycklar (ssp. maculata) och skogsnycklar (ssp. fuchsii) bildar tillsammans ett mångformigt och vittspritt artkomplex inom det eurasiska orkidésläktet Dactylorhiza. I min avhandling har jag kommit fram till flera allmänna och biologiskt viktiga slutsatser rörande artbildnThe aim of this thesis was to investigate and describe different aspects of variation in the Dactylorhiza maculata complex and to relate the variation patterns to underlying biological processes such as Quaternary migration history, hybridization and polyploid evolution. The variation patterns were analysed at various geographic levels using molecular markers (plastid DNA and ITS of nrDNA), cytolo

Popular Abstract in Swedish I takt med att resultaten för behandling av cancer hos barn och ungdomar blivit bättre, har kraven på en god livskvalitet efter avslutad behandling ökat. Man beräknar att år 2005 kommer 1/700 unga vuxna mellan 25-35 års ålder att vara långtidsöverlevande efter barncancer. Mer än 2/3 av dem som behandlats kommer att ha någon form av sena biverkningar, och hos hälften av Evaluation of long-term side effects of treatment is important due to the growing number of childhood cancer survivors. How kidney function is affected over time needs to be clarified. In the first article, we investigated 247 healthy infants and children and established upper reference limits for several proteins in urine, to be used as markers for glomerular and tubular proteinuria in children w

Plants have developed complex molecular mechanisms to recognize and respond to the different microorganisms present in their surroundings. The most studied response mechanisms are plant defense responses. These defense response mechanisms share many similar components with the plant response mechanisms to beneficial microbes. Therefore, studying the defense response mechanisms against pathogens caPlants have developed complex molecular mechanisms to recognize and respond to the different microorganisms present in their surroundings.

Paying privately for childcare is a growing phenomenon, and its rise in Sweden is particularly interesting because of the vast prevalence there of publicly funded day care. This book combines family practice and childhood studies theory with the personal perspectives of nannies and au pairs, parents, and the children themselves, to provide new understandings of what constitutes ‘good care’. The au

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning:Dagens datorer har krympt i storlek i takt med den ständigt ökande kompetensen att tillverka transistorer med en anmärkningsvärd noggrannhet. Storleksskalan av nya transistorer börjar motsvara den av en handfull atomer.På denna skala dominerar kvantfysik, vilket är ett väsentligt hinder för de traditionella datorkomponenterna. Men detta innebär inte bara en begräThe work contained in this thesis deals with two closely related topics. Papers I-III deal with charge transport statistics in nanoscale devices to investigate the presence of entanglement in the constituent electrons. We identify the contributions of entangled electron pairs to the current cross-correlations as a signature of entanglement. Paper IV treats the electric control of a quantum dot bas

It is well-known and experimentally conrmed that the mechanical re-sponse to loading of small enough structures diers from what applies to themacro-scale. This is valid for structures of linear measures at the nano-scale,typically below about 50nm. In addition to pure size eects also the crys-tallographic orientation becomes important at this scale. This study demon-strates the mechanical response

The Beagle Channel crosses the southernmost tip of South America (Tierra del Fuego), connecting the South Atlantic with the Southeastern Pacific. Raised beaches occur up to 10 m above mean sea level (m a.m.s.l.), especially along the northern (Argentinian) shore, and have been dated using marine shells. The southern (Chilean) shore is well-known for its abundance of shell middens at different leve

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has come to prominence as a priority for policy makers and healthcare professionals. There are many well-described guidelines on how healthcare professionals should handle AMR. However, professional practices are sometimes different from what the guidelines prescribe. Based on a non-scientific case, the article explores and discusses healthcare professionals’ practic

In this contribution, we discuss the menu of policy regimes available for Iceland. Each regime is evaluated against the characteristics of the Icelandic economy. We start with a short description of the Icelandic economy. We then examine the costs and benefts of alternative monetary regimes. We conclude that no regime Iceland has tried since attaining full sovereignty in 1918 has provided economic

Avhandlingen undersöker betydelsen och funktionen av tårar i romersk politisk kultur under republiken och tidig kejsartid i olika historiska sammanhang, huvudsakligen sorg, tårar och i olika politiska sammanhang där auktoritet, makt och underkastelse utövades eller iscensattes. Detta görs genom studier av hur tårar skildras i olika genrer och författarskap i latinsk och grekisk litteratur. AllmäntThe thesis explores the meaning and function of tears in Roman political culture during the Republic and the Early Empire in various historical settings: mourning, the law court, and in different political contexts where power, authority, and subjection were expressed or exercised. This is carried through by reading representations of weeping in Greek and Latin literary works in different genres,

Skogsvårdslagen är en författning som gäller parallellt med miljöbalken. Lagen är uppbyggd kring att produktions- och miljömål ska vara likvärdiga. I praktiken ser det annorlunda ut då produktionsintresset ofta överordnas miljöintresset, vilket resulterar i att den biologiska mångfalden i skogslandskapet blir lidande. SVL ställer få krav på skogsägarna. Myndigheternas strategi är att med rådgivnin

The assumption underlying this thesis is that both technological development and institutional and structural change are required to achieve a more sustainable building sector in China. Earlier literature has taken an approach based on the technological innovation system (TIS) to evaluate and understand the dynamics of technology development and change processes. However, fewer studies have examin
