Säkerhetsläget i Europa har förändrats drastiskt under de senaste åren, med de två största förändringarna i Rysslands invasion av Ukraina, och NATO:s expandering med Sverige och Finland som nya medlemsstater. Den ökade militariseringen i Europa har också resulterat i att en gammal fråga nu igen dykt upp i den allmänna debatten, nämligen frågan om Åland borde remili-tariseras i syfte att säkra ÖsteThe security in Europe has changed dramatically during recent years, with the two most significant changes being Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and NATO:s expansion with Sweden and Finland as new member states. The increasing militarization in Europe has also brought back an old question into the public debate, namely if the Åland islands should be re-militarized with the purpose of securing the Ba

Under senare år har regeringen intensifierat arbetet mot hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck genom flera lagstiftningsreformer. Bland de senaste åtgärderna återfinns kriminaliseringen av oskuldskontroller, oskuldsintyg och oskulds-ingrepp. Regeringen har framhållits att dessa företeelser kränker flickors och kvinnors kroppsliga och sexuella integritet. I samband med en kriminalisering aktualiserasIn recent years, the Swedish Government has intensified its efforts to combat honour-related violence and oppression through several legislative reforms. Among the most recent measures is the criminalization of virginity testing, virginity certificates and virginity-restoring procedures. The Swedish Gov-ernment has emphasized that these practices violate the bodily and sexual in-tegrity of girls a

Avian Influenza Viruses (AIVs) infect many mammals, including humans1. These AIVs are diverse in their natural hosts, harboring almost all possible viral subtypes2. Human pandemics of flu originally stem from AIVs3. Many fatal human cases during the H5N1 outbreaks in recent years were reported. Lately, a new AIV related strain swept through the human population, causing the 'swine flu epidemic'4.

This is a proposal to organize a session.Description:The rapid development of the technological progress is constantly reshaping the organization of the firm, raising important labour law issues.One of the red treads of this phenomenon is the shifting of the focus from the “activity” performed by the worker, to the “result” obtained.In the past it was not always possible to measure the output prod

In the last decades, the frequency and intensity of cyanobacterial blooms have been of increasing concern. They have become a direct threat to the drinking water supply by clogging filters, bringing odour and unpleasant taste to the treated water and worst of all, causing elevated cyanotoxins, which can be difficult to remove, yet lead to severe health issues. This thesis aims to present a compreh

The Swedish Program "Leadership, Organization and Communication" (LOM) was a research and a development program designed to support local processes of change in the private and the public sector. The program was carried out between 1985 and 1990. The strategy of LOM was focused on two basic principles: the principle of democratic dialogue and the principle of development of a "communicative infras

The thesis presents a rheological study on wheat flour dough, in relation to the structural influence of the different dough constituents, added components and mixing time. Rheological investigations have been focused on measurements at small deformations, including dynamic oscillation and stress relaxation, although complementing measurements have been performed in large deformation viscosity exp

Avhandlingen, som består av fyra delstudier, är en femårsuppföljning av kvinnliga missbrukare, som var tvångsomhändertagna på Lunden mellan januari 1997 och december 2000, och som genomgick en omfattande utredning. Klienterna har systematiskt utretts med psykologiska och neuropsykologiska test i samarbete med personal och Lundens psykiater. Test och skattningsskalor som använts är standardiserade The study focus is a sample of women with drug dependence admitted to compulsory treatment according to the Swedish act of care for drug abusers (LVM, 1988:870) and according to the act of care for young persons (LVU, 1990:52). From a cohort consecutively admitted to residential treatment at Lunden between 1997 and 2000, a sample of 132 women was selected for a five year follow-up. They were evalu

A novel approach for surface wave testing of pavements is presented. It is a non-destructive testing (NDT) technique that can be used to obtain the thickness and stiffness properties of the different layers in a pavement. With this method structural properties of the pavement can be mapped as a function of time and space, providing a valuable tool in pavement design and management. The technical d

Popular Abstract in Swedish Målet med arbetet var att öka mängden vindkraft, solel och annan distribuerad generering (DG) som kan anslutas till befintliga distributionsnät på ett snabbt och kostnadseffektivt sätt. Att införa aktiv spänningsreglering i nätet, istället för installation av nya ledningar, har identifierats som en lämplig strategi. Då denna princip bygger på att DG-enheternas produktioDistributed generation (DG), i.e. generation connected to the low and medium voltage distribution network (DN), has been increasing a lot during recent years. Thus the traditional assumption of a unidirectional power flow and a voltage decrease along the distribution feeders is no longer valid in all operation conditions. Voltage control in these networks is often limited to the on-load tap change

This work investigates the concept of autonomy in three contexts: in constitutional law (SA), in the philosophy of Immanuel Kant (KA) and in the contemporary philosophical discussion on personal autonomy (PA). Tracing the concept of autonomy historically, we highlight similarities and dissimilarities between different definitions. For example, Kant’s account of self-legislation is traced back to S

Global warming and its effects on climate are of great concern. Climate change can affect buildings in different ways, i.e. it can change the energy demand or the moisture durability of buildings in the future. In Sweden, most of the last 20 years have been mild and wet compared to the 1961-1990 climate reference period. Future needs and risks of the building sector depend on the future climate wh

Popular Abstract in Swedish I Sverige finns cirka 350 000 personer med diabetes. Motsvarande siffra i hela världen är cirka 350 miljoner människor och forskning talar för att antalet personer med diabetes kommer att öka dramatiskt under de närmsta decennierna. Den största ökningen sker i utvecklingsländer i urbana områden, till stor del beroende på livsstilsförändringar och förändringar i diet. UtSpecific aims: To examine whether the sociodemographic characteristics of patients with type 2 diabetes affect the odds of reaching the recommended treatment goals for HbA1c and blood lipids (study 1). To investigate whether the odds of coronary heart disease are higher in patients with diabetes living in deprived neighborhoods than in those living in wealthy neighborhoods (Study 2). To examine th

Interaction is an integral part of all music. Interaction is part of listening, of playing, of composing and even of thinking about music. In this thesis the multiplicity of modes in which one may engage interactively in, through and with music is the starting point for rethinking Human-Computer Interaction in general and Interactive Music in particular. I propose that in Human-Computer interactio

The major histocompatibility class I (MHC-I) genes are highly polymorphic and the proteins that they encode play a crucial role in both the innate and the adaptive immune response. A MHC-I molecule consists of three parts, one polymorphic heavy chain, one invariant light chain, β2-microglobulin and a peptide of usually between 8-11 amino acids in length. The maturation and quality control of MHC-I

An important factor for a user of web sites on the Internet is the duration of time between the request of a web page until an answer has been returned. If this response time is too long, the user is likely to abandon the web site and search for other providers of the service. To avoid this loss of users, it is important for the web site operator to assure that users are treated sufficiently fast.

Det digitala samhällets utmaningar för EU:s upphovsrättsliga system är många. Med syftet att implementera WIPO:s internettraktater från 1996, samt att horisontellt harmonisera regelverket för upphovsrätt och närliggande rättigheter, antog EU år 2001 det mycket kritiserade InfoSoc-direktivet. Dess mest kontroversiella delar rör upphovsrättsundantagen samt det specifika skyddet som ges till tekniskaThe challenges of the digital networked environment to the EU copyright system are many. With the task of implementing the 1996 WIPO Internet Treaties while at the same time horizontally harmonizing the legal framework on copyright and related rights, the EU in 2001 adopted the much-criticized InfoSoc Directive. Its most controversial provisions were on copyright exceptions and the specific protec

I en komparativ studie undersöktes regleringen av flera former av eutanasi (dödshjälp) och assisterat självmord i Sverige, Nederländerna, Schweiz och Italien. Även Europadomstolens praxis, samt attityder till och förekomst av eutanasi behandlades och resultaten sammanställdes. Bland de jämförda länderna är aktiv eutanasi, dvs. att aktivt förkorta en annans liv, tillåtet endast för nederländska lThe regulation of several types of euthanasia and assisted suicide in Sweden, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Italy was examined, as well as case law from the European Court of Human rights, and attitudes towards and occurrence of euthanasia. The results were then analysed. Active euthanasia, i.e. to actively shorten the life of another person, is legal only for Dutch physicians. The physician
