Envisaging the future through the lens of dualism : Unearthing the fetishism of technology in Kim Stanley Robinson's "The Ministry for the Future"

The article examines Kim Stanley Robinson's novel The Ministry for the Future (2020) as an example of how the commonsensical modern distinction between the material and the social pervades mainstream deliberations on technological solutions to problems of sustainability. To expose the fetishism of modern technology, founded on the unwarranted ontological distinction between nature and society, we

Developing a Supply Chain Mapping Framework – A case study at IKEA's Comfort Category

The benefits and barriers of supply chain mapping have often been discussed in the literature, but there is no existing step-by-step framework that can be followed to map a supply chain. In this master thesis, the authors develop a 12-step framework for supply chain mapping and explore IKEA's Comfort Category using the framework. The framework is divided into three main stages: 1) Before mapping,

Prophylactic Treatment of Children with Hemophilia in Sweden

Hemophilia A/B are caused by deficiency or lack of coagulation factors VIII (FVIII) or factor IX (FIX), respectively, in plasma. A person with hemophilia develops bleeding in the joints and muscles at an early age, which, if left untreated, leads to early arthropathy. Preventive treatment can be achieved by regular (prophylactic) administration of FVIII/FIX. In 1958, this was implemented on a smal

The Flesh of History : Re-Enlivening the History of Textile Industries Through the Work of Kristina Müntzing

Swedish artist Kristina Müntzing physically engages with archives of textile industries through manipulating, enlarging, fragmenting and re-constructing (re-weaving) photographs that she finds, as well as creating performances that explore the carnal aspects of this history. In this way, she makes connections between such embodied understandings and the political struggles of the time, which conti

Factors contributing to the potential expansion of Limnomonas gaiensis (Chlamydomonadales, Chlorophyta) in freshwater lakes in Northern Europe

Limnomonas gaiensis is a recently described green microalga inhabiting freshwater lakes in northern Europe (England, Sweden). There is little information on the species’ tolerance to environmental factors and its capacity to spread to unconnected lakes. Using a barcoding approach, we investigated the phylogeography of L. gaiensis along a latitudinal gradient spanning 54–60°N. Experimental long-ter
