165 Abstract The chapter reviews evidence for the bodily mimesis hypothesis, which states that the evolution of language was preceded by an adaptation for improved volitional control of the body, giving our ancestors advantages in the domains of imi- tation, empathy, and gestural communication. Much of this evidence is also shared by other gesture-first theories of language origins, but they face

Restricting language change through micro-comparative analysis Jan Don a , Paula Fenger a & Olaf Koeneman b (a = University of Amsterdam, b = Radboud University Nijmegen) 1. Introduction Although the variation pertaining to subject verb agreement in dialects of Dutch is quite bewildering (cf. SAND atlas, Barbiers et al 2005), four exceptionless generalizations on paradigm structure can be formulat

This paper explores discourses in higher education viewing two pairs of concepts, on the one hand, the concepts of use- vs. exchange value and on the other, the concepts of deep vs. surface learning. Drawing on Yrjö Engeströms’ position of use- vs. exchange value, and his elaboration on the activity system, we assert that any component in an activity system combines two inherent forces which compe

Populations that undergo a process of rapid evolution present excellent opportunities to investigate the mechanisms driving or restraining adaptive divergence. The genetic variance-covariance matrix (G) is often considered to constrain adaptation but little is known about its potential to evolve during phenotypic divergence. We compared the G-matrices of ancestral and recently established ecotype

Arbetet utgör en analys av vilka föreställningar om kön som skapas och åter-skapas i mål om vårdnad, boende och umgänge där fäder brukat våld mot mödrar. En utgångspunkt i arbetet är att våldet förstås utifrån könskategorier, eftersom det främst är fäder som är våldsutövare och mödrar som är våldsut-satta. Arbetet antar ett feministiskt och socialkonstruktionistiskt angreppssätt, vilket innebär atThis essay constitutes an analysis of which ideas about gender that are being produced and reproduced in custody, residence and contact cases, where fa-thers have been violent towards mothers. The essay is based on the under-standing that violence is connected to categories of gender, since perpetrators primarily constitutes of fathers while mothers are usually the victims of vio-lence.

In May 2009, a new Swedish legislation made it possible for a new tenure to enter the housing market – condominiums. Since the law took effect, only a few condominiums have been built, mainly by minor construction- and property companies. This thesis aims to investigate under what circums- tances it’s favorably to build condominiums and also to identify what ob- stacles and opportunities that c

For more than half a century, researchers around the world have been engaged in attempts to achieve fusion ignition as a proof of principle of various fusion concepts. Following the Lawson criterion, an ignited plasma is one where the fusion heating power is high enough to overcome all the physical processes that cool the fusion plasma, creating a positive thermodynamic feedback loop with rapidly

Kenya’s population is rapidly growing and urbanising. Poverty and problems of food insecurity are equally urbanising at an unprecedented rate. Formal employment has not kept pace with the job demand of the growing population. As a result, urban residents seek employment (livelihood) from an array of informal economic activities, including own food production. The growing urban population and urban

Popular Abstract in Swedish En amfifil molekyl innebär en molekyl som består av två delar, en som är hydrofil (“vattenälskande”) och en som är hydrofob (“vattenhatande”). Ofta består den amfifila molekylen av en ”vattenälskande” huvudgrupp och en ”vattenhatande” svans och kallas för surfaktant. Detta beteende ger amfifila molekyler speciella egenskaper. En av de viktigaste egenskaperna är att de kIn this thesis temperature induced vesicle formation in both a block copolymer system and nonionic surfactant system have been investigated. The block copolymer is a triblock copolymer of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(propylene oxide) (PPO), PEO-PPO-PEO, with the average molecular composition of EO5PO68EO5 and the commercial trade name Pluronic L121 (papers I, II).
