This study focuses on the relationship between education and economic growth, specifically the effect a potential decline in schooling caused by the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic would have on the economic growth of a country. Using an inductive approach, the study focuses on the Sub- Saharan African countries, especially Kenya, since there is anecdotal evidence that a significant number of students h

Subjective experience has often taken center stage in debates between competing conceptual theories of the mind. This is also a central object of concern in the empirical domain, and especially in the search for the neural correlates of consciousness (NCCs). By now, most of the competing conceptual theories of consciousness have become aligned with distinct hypotheses about the NCCs. These hypothe

On 19 August 2015 the European Spallation Source (ESS) was approved by the European Commission as a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC). The purpose of the contribution is to answer the question about actual VAT treatment of transactions in which ESS is engaged and to make a conclusion whether the current rules contribute to the free movement of knowledge in Europe, also called a "f

Feedback controllers are typically applied to computing systems by acting on some quantities ("tunable parameters" in the computer science lexicon, think e.g. of a packet drop rate) in order to attain some goal (e.g., a required bandwidth allocation). In other words, control loops are closed around the computing system, that exposes tunable parameters as control actuators, and allows to measure so

Many model-based tuning methods for PI(D) controllers, especially - but not exclusively - in the process control domain, employ models with delay. Doing so has advantages, basically in terms of tuning rules' simplicity, but also potential drawbacks, especially from the standpoint of performance (and sometimes robustness). This manuscript aims at initiating and fostering a critical discussion on th

Within the humanitarian arena and since the introduction of the humanitarian reform process in 2005, the cluster approach was introduced to strengthen the cooperation and accountability between agencies working in the same field. Such an integrated approach is particularly needed and relevant in emergencies like cholera, especially in countries undergoing internal conflicts like Yemen. Several are

Despite its importance for the establishment of modern Turkey, İzmir remains understudied in scholarship on Turkish nationalism. This paper presents data from the project Beyond Sacred/Secular Cities, studying urban imaginaries in contemporary Middle Eastern nationalisms. With a point of departure in theories of memory (Connerton 1989), postsecularism (Asad 2018), and social construction of space

Eosinophils are increasingly recognized as adaptable immune cells that exhibit diverse phenotypes and effector functions across different tissues and disease states. While they can induce pathology through degranulation and cytotoxic mediator release, eosinophils also fulfill regulatory and tissue repair roles. Advances in single-cell and spatial technologies have begun to reveal how microenvironm

I denna uppsats undersöks hur EU-arbetsrättens olika arbetstagarbegrepp definieras, vilken räckvidd de har samt hur dessa begrepp kan komma att utvecklas i framtiden. Arbetstagarbegreppen i både primärrätten och sekundärrätten undersöks. Undersökningen genomförs med den rättsdogmatiska metoden och den EU-rättsliga metoden. Artikel 45 FEUF var den första bestämmelsen med ett arbetstagarbegrepp i This thesis examines how the various concepts of ‘worker’ in EU labour law are defined, what their scopes are, and how these concepts may change in the future. The concepts of ‘worker’ in both primary and secondary law are examined. The examination is carried out using the legal dogmatic method and the EU legal method. Article 45 TFEU was the first regulation in the EU to contain a concept of ‘wo

In this article, I identify a key trend for demarcating the “secular” as a Western, Christian achievement. I analyze how the New Testament story often known as “Render unto Caesar” is referenced as a source for the secular West, particularly in writings by European and American conservative thinkers in the 1990s and early 2000s. My argument is that these references to “Render unto Caesar” constitu

The chapter investigates how one specific collaboration between a fashion conglomerate (Louis Vuitton) and a contemporary artist (Takashi Murakami) exemplifies a wider phenomenon of the ways in which brands curate artists to fit their own needs. Central to the chapter is the discussion about why and to what ends curation of art has become important for fashion brands in their branding efforts.
