I artikeln avhandlas historien om hur lägren i Auschwitz var av stor betydelse från 1942 till avvecklandet i januari 1945 för the det fortsatta massmördandet, för att fängsla politiska motståndare och andra som nazisterna riktade bannstrålen mot och för att hysa slavarbetskraft för fabriker av betydelse för den tyska krigsinsatsen. En annan aspekt är den likaledes centrala betydelse som Auschwitz
Såväl sambanden mellan då, nu och sedan som frågan om hur historievetenskap (the historical past) kan samverka eller ibland ersättas av andra slags historieproduktion och -förmedling (the practical past) är viktiga komponenter i denna artikel. Den grundläggande frågan är om – och i så fall hur – vi kan lära av den i flera avseenden atypiska och mångfasetterade förintelsen. En utgångspunkt är att dBoth the connections between then, present and then and the question of how scholarly history (the historical past) can interact or sometimes be replaced by other forms of historical production and dissemination (the practical past) are important components. The fundamental question is whether – and if so, how – we can learn from the atypical and multifaceted Holocaust in many respects. A starting
This study critically engages with the assumption that factory jobs will benefit both women themselves and overall development in Ethiopia, whose industrial policy is dedicated to labor-intensive light manufacturing. Drawing on fieldwork data collected in and around an export-oriented garment factory, it delves into the impact of women’s employment on their intra-household decision-making power, a
Current food systems are unsustainable, exacerbating environmental and socio-economic challenges. With 80 % of food consumed in cities, transforming urban food systems is vital. Urban food sharing initiatives (FSIs), which involve collective acts of growing, cooking, eating, and redistributing food, offer a promising alternative in sustainable urban transformations. However, FSIs often struggle to
In this article, I explore the assigned role of interpreters in journalism training programmes in Vietnam, focusing on two media aid projects funded by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida): the Local Radio Project and the Further Training of Journalists programme. The study is based on qualitative analyses of project documentation and interviews with former trainers. A t
We present a user study analyzing head-gaze- based robot control and foveated visual augmentation in a simulated search-and-rescue task. Results show that foveated augmentation significantly improves task performance, reduces cognitive load by 38%, and shortens task time by over 60%. Head-gaze patterns analysed over both the entire task duration and shorter time segments show that near and far att
This paper explores the dynamics of human-robot collaboration through a comparative study of human-assisted and system-assisted approaches in a search and rescue application. Leveraging virtual environments and mixed-reality interfaces, the study evaluates task performance, workload, usability, and subjective experiences of participants. Results indicate that the system-assisted approach significa
Research on deception cues in writing has focused on the products of writing rather than theprocess, ignoring the rich data that lies behind the finished texts. Written process data offera unique window into the cognitive processes involved in language production alongsidespoken process data. The aim of this dissertation is to examine the the effect of deceptionon real-time language production pro
This article analyses how a newly established set of actors – online brokerage firms (OBFs) – sought to popularise stock trading among the Swedish populace in the late 1990s. During this period, internet usage took off and stock markets surged rapidly up until the dotcom bubble burst in 2000. Sweden was at the forefront of both these international developments, and we analyse the intimate connecti
Globally, suicide is a leading cause of mortality among teenage children and adolescents. Alcohol and other substances of abuse may influence both the decision to commit suicide and the choice of method. However, only few studies focused on toxicological findings in child suicides. The aim of this study was to map postmortem toxicological findings in child suicides in Sweden. Data on age, sex, sui
STUDY OBJECTIVES: An association between COVID-19 and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been reported in literature. We aimed to address the occurrence and phenotypes of OSA in adults with a history of COVID-19 infection and its possible association with long-COVID.METHODS: In this matched case-control study, 152 individuals with a history of COVID-19 and 152 without were evaluated in a sleep labo
C1INH (C1-inhibitor) is a multifunctional SERPIN (serine protease inhibitor) that functions as a major negative regulator of the complement, coagulation, and kallikrein-kinin systems. C1INH products were originally developed for the treatment of hereditary angioedema associated with C1INH deficiency. A growing body of literature indicates that C1INH products may find utility in the management of s
Based on a combination of morphometric analyses, a chloroplast DNA phylogeny, and multivariate analyses of whole genome sequence data from >300 museum samples, we discuss and evaluate the delimitation, taxonomy, and evolution of wild and escaped taxa in Mentha subgen. Mentha, focusing on the northern hemisphere. Thirteen species (Mentha aquatica, M. arvensis, M. australis, M. capensis, M. dahurica
Very-low-field MRI (<100 mT) holds promise for Point-of-Care brain imaging applications, including stroke and multiple sclerosis, with T1 mapping emerging as a key biomarker for brain development and pathology. However, current low-field T1 mapping protocols suffer from long acquisition times and limited multi-site repeatability. This study aimed to improve T1 mapping at 64 mT using a clinically f
