Controlling Destiny : Julian Huxley's Post-Darwinian Evolutionism and the History of Transhumanism

The evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley (1887–1975) attempted to promote a “religion for the future,” which he would come to refer to as Transhumanism. It was Huxley’s firm belief that mankind needed a unifying system of thought that could motivate action and change. Transhumanism was also an attempt to unite a more traditional humanistic view of the human as containing some form of core essence The evolutionary biologist Julian Huxley (1887–1975) attempted to promote a “religion for the future,” which he would come to refer to as Transhumanism.

Behandlares, handledares och utbildares upplevelser av arbete med Emotion Regulation Group Therapy ur ett implementeringsperspektiv

Huruvida en metod används och sprids i rutinmässig vård beror inte enbart på behandlingseffekt utan även på effektiviteten i implementeringen. Den manualbaserade gruppbehandlingen Emotion Regulation Group Therapy (ERGT) har ännu inte undersökts utifrån dess implementeringsprocess. Syftet med denna studie var att utforska ERGT i Sverige idag ur ett implementeringsperspektiv och att därigenom bidra The integration and dissemination of a method within routine care rely not only on treatment efficacy but also on the effectiveness of the implementation. So far, Emotion Regulation Group Therapy (ERGT), a manual-based group treatment, has not been investigated from an implementation perspective. The aim of this study was to examine the implementation process of ERGT in Sweden and thereby contribu

Störande Standardavtal - Om standardavtals konkurrensbegränsande effekt vid upphandling av entreprenader

Uppsatsen undersöker huruvida användningen av standardavtal vid offentlig upphandling av entreprenader inom Sverige innebär en inskränkning av den grundläggande unionsrättsliga friheten att tillhandahålla tjänster inom EU som säkerställs genom artikel 56 i Fördraget om Europeiska Unionens Funktionssätt. Entreprenadrätten är i Sverige oreglerad i lag och regleras istället genom standardavtal utformThis paper examines whether the use of standard agreements within public procurement of contractors in Sweden constitutes a restriction of the freedom to provide services within EU, which is ensured through article 56 in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. Contract-law is not regulated through law within Sweden but is instead regulated through standard agreements developed by an i

Long object shift and reflexives

This short communication is concerned with long object shift of reflexives in Swedish. Only 3rd person reflexives can shift across their antecedent. For some reason this is possible even if the antecedent is 1st or 2nd person as well, but certain requirements on the antecedent are necessary. This paper shows that neither a purely syntactic nor a purely semantic analysis can account for all the fac

In Search of Conceptual Clarity About the Structure of Psychopathic Traits in Children: A Network-Based Proposal

Psychopathic traits in childhood have been revealed as potential identifiers of risk, being predictive of later forms of behavioral maladjustment. Yet, it is still under debate how psychopathic traits in children should be best conceptualized and which are the core dimensions for construct definition and prediction. The present study aims to examine the structure of psychopathic traits in childhoo

Gårdsförsäljning i Sverige - En undersökning av gårdsförsäljning i förhållande till EU-rätten

Att gårdsförsäljning av alkoholdrycker ska bli en verklighet i Sverige är något som många vill se. För att gårdsförsäljningen ska kunna existera vid sidan om det svenska alkoholmonopolet krävs att den är förenlig med rådande EU-rätt. Centralt för den EU-rättsliga regleringen är upprätthållandet av en inre marknad där det råder fri rörlighet för varor. Artikel 37 i Fördraget om Europeiska unionens On-farm sales of alcoholic beverages becoming a reality in Sweden many wish to see. For on-farm sales to coexist with the Swedish alcohol monopoly, compatibility with current EU law is required. Central to EU legal regulation is the maintenance of an internal market with the free movement of goods. Article 37 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) regulates state trading mon

Lifetime measurements and terminating structures in 87Nb

Two experiments have been performed using the 58Ni(32S,3p) reaction at 135 MeV with Gammasphere and the Microball to study the high-spin structure of the transitional nucleus 87Nb. The first experiment using a thin target provided a considerable extension and refinement of the level scheme, as well as firm spin assignments from directional correlation of oriented nuclei. Sub-picosecond lifetimes w

Testing mean-field models near the N=Z line : γ-ray spectroscopy of the Tz=1/2 nucleus 73Kr

Excited states in the N=Z+1 nucleus 73Kr have been investigated using the 40Ca(36Ar, 2pn) and 40Ca(40Ca, α2pn) reactions at 145 and 160 MeV, respectively. γ rays were detected using the Gammasphere array and events were recorded in coincidence with charged-particle and neutron detectors. The three previously observed bands were extended to high spin, and a new unfavored positive-parity band has be

Öronvittnen: En undersökning av "other accent"-effekten i svensk kontext kopplad till konfidens och korrekthet

Studien undersökte hur auditivt minne påverkas av att höra en röst som talar med dialekt på ens eget modersmål (i detta fall svenska) i jämförelse med att höra en röst som talar med brytning på ett annat språk (i detta fall franska). Auditivt minne är ett relevant område i forensiskt sammanhang då det finns bristfällig forskning gällande öronvittnen och dialekters och brytningars påverkan på öronvThe present study researched how auditory memory is affected by hearing a voice that speaks with a dialect in one’s own mother tongue (in this case Swedish) in comparison to hearing a voice that speaks with an accent in another language (in this case French). Auditory memory is a relevant field in forensic context since the research concerning earwitnesses and the impact of dialects and accents on

Kapitalskydd som borgenärsskydd i aktiebolagsrätten

Kännetecknande för aktiebolagsformen är aktieägarnas avsaknad av personligt ansvar. Detta skapar även förutsättningar för en intressekonflikt mellan aktiebolagets ägare och dess borgenärer där synen på samt incitamenten till såväl investeringar som risktagande kan skilja sig åt. Kapitalskyddssystemet utgör en central del av det aktiebolagsrättsliga borgenärsskyddet och kan betraktas som lagstiftarThe limited liability company is characterised by the shareholders’ lack of personal liability. This also forms the basis of a conflict between the owners of the company and the creditors of the company, whose approaches and incentives for investments as well as risk-taking may diverge. The legal capital regime constitutets a core part of creditor protection under company law and can be considered

First evidence for smooth band termination in valence space in the mass 130 region : Spectroscopy of 127La

High spin states in 127La have been studied using the 32S(100Mo,p4n) reaction at a beam energy of 155 MeV. Gamma rays were detected using the EUROBALL III spectrometer. One of the side bands in 127La is observed to be populated to a spin of 83/2+. These data are compared with cranked Nilsson-Strutinski calculations which suggest that the structure is a smoothly terminating band, in valence space,

High-spin terminating bands formed from successive particle-hole excitations across closed shells

Observed high spin states in 30Zn and 66Dy isotopes with two protons outside the closed shells at Z = 28 and Z = 64, respectively, are discussed and compared with cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations. Bands terminating at higher and higher spin values are formed from successive proton excitations across these shells. These bands show very different features depending on the number of excited pa

Samlade runt vårt köksbord; i familjegruppchatten - en undersökning om att göra familjeintimitet i en digital värld.

Denna uppsats behandlar intimitet och familjeskapande med digitala verktyg i en globaliserad värld innanför ramen av familjegruppchatten. Syftet är att undersöka gruppchattens funktion, dess konsekvenser och betydelser; hur den påverkar individers välmående och deras band till sin familj i en värld vars traditionella värderingar och normer tenderar att lösas upp och bytas ut mot nya. Målet är ocks

Sakrättsliga moment vid överlåtelse och pantsättning av aktier i kupongbolag - Särskilt om verkan av denuntiation i förhållande till överlåtaren och pantsättarens borgenärer

Uppsatsen redogör för vilka sakrättsliga regleringar som blir verksamma och kan skydda en förvärvare eller panthavare mot överlåtaren och pantsättarens borgenärer när aktier i kupongbolag överlåts eller pantsätts men för vilka aktiebrev inte utgivits. Transaktioner med aktier i onoterade aktiebolag, vilka i de flesta fall utgörs av kupongbolag, blir allt vanligare och desto mer säll-synt är förekoThe paper describes the rules of property law that become effective and can protect an acquirer and pledgee against the transferor or pledger's creditors when shares in coupon companies are transferred or pledged but for which share certificates have not been issued. Transactions in shares of Swedish unlisted limited liability companies, which in most cases are coupon compa-nies, are becoming

Det skadar inte att ställa frågor - Om överprövningsprocessen i upphandlingsmål i ljuset av påtalandeskyldigheten

En leverantör som upplever att den upphandlande myndigheten har gjort avsteg från föreskrifterna i upphandlingsdokumenten och/eller från det upphandlingsrättsliga regelverket, har en vidsträckt möjlighet att ansöka om överprövning av upphandlingen. Under de senaste åren har dock en rad åtgärder vidtagits i syfte att göra den svenska överprövningsprocessen mer effektiv och förutsebar. Bland annat hA tenderer who feels that the contracting authority has deviated from the specifications in the procurement documents and/or is in breach of the procurement legislation, has a vast opportunity to apply for a review procedure. However, during the last couple of years, several actions have been taken with the aim of making the Swedish review procedure more efficient and predictable. For instance, re

Cropland abandonment in the context of drought, economic restructuring, and migration in northeast Syria

Farmland abandonment is often associated with biophysical, political, or socio-economic changes, like droughts, economic reforms, rural-urban migration, or armed conflicts. Syria has seen several such changes in the period between 2000-2011, however, few assessments of how these factors have interacted with land abandonment have been carried out. In this study we investigate land abandonment patte

Relation Between Success Rate and Sample Quantity in Dendrochronological Dating of Building Materials

Optimizing sample quantity and quality improves cost-effective and less invasive dendrochronological investigations. Our study examined 3,831 trees, including 2,921 pine, 404 spruce, and 506 oak trees. Pine had a 79.2% success rate for dating, spruce 46.5%, and oak 67.8%. Success rates increased with more trees analysed, notably in the case of spruce. When 1–3 spruce trees were analysed, only 44%
