Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling riktar sig till läsare som har ett särskilt intresse i de baltiska staterna såväl som i demokratiseringsfrågor, postkommunism och medborgarskap. Författaren analyserar utvecklingen av medborgarskap i de baltiska länderna under sovjettiden samt sedan återupprättandet av självständigheten 1990. Teoretiskt vilar analysen på en kritisk granskning av de tre This book speaks to readers with a particular interest in the Baltic states as well as to those with a broader interest in post-communist democratization and citizenship. The notion of citizenship has not been prominent in academic perspectives on post-communism. This study aims at bringing citizenship back into these perspectives. Starting from the idea that citizenship is both a condition of de

An algorithm is presented in which the Colour-Dipole Cascade Model as implemented in the ARIADNE program is corrected to match the fixed order tree-level matrix elements for e(+)e(-) --> n jets. For the results presented here, matrix elements were used up to second order in alpha(S) but the scheme is applicable also for higher orders.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med denna studie var att kartlägga kvinnligt skolledarskap. En enkät sän-des till 235 kvinnliga rektorer. Av dem hade 204 tjänst som skolledare under den tid då undersökningen genomfördes och 173 av dem besvarade enkäten. Det externa bortfallet var alltså ca 15 procent. I den fortsatta framställningen avses med bortfall det interna. Nedan ges en sammanfattning avThe purpose of this study was to chart the situation of women principals. By the time the in-vestigation was made the whole amount of women principals in compulsory school was about 16 percent (90/91). Of 235 contacted women, 204 were serving as principals. 173 responded which means 85 percent. The study shows that responsibility rationality are important in women principals' work. They look afte

3-Hydroxypropionic acid was isolated by bioactivity-guided fractionation of extracts obtained from submerged cultures of several endophytic fungi isolated from above-ground plant organs. This compound showed selective nematicidal activity against the plant-parasitic nematode Meloidogyne incognita with LD50 values of 12.5-15 mug/ml. Activity against the saprophytic Caenorhabditis elegans was fivefo

An improved ELISA method for the detection of Staphylococcal. Enterotoxin B (SEB) in protein A preparations is presented. Fab fragments were obtained by digestion with papain of anti-SEB IgG bound to SEB immobilized on Sepharose 4B. Anti-SEB and peroxidase-labeled Fab fragments from secondary antibodies were successfully used in a modified ELISA of SEB in protein A preparations. SEB-Sepharose was

Objective: To identify the reasons and their relative importance why medicines are returned to Swedish pharmacies unused. Setting: A random sample of the pharmacies in Sweden. Method: Interviews using a semi-structered interview form with pharmacy customers returning unused medicines to the pharmacy. Main outcome measure: Reasons given by patients/relatives/carers for returning unused medicines to

Associations with functional groups of natural organic matter (NOM) are of great importance for bioavailability, toxicity, and mobility of trace metals in soils and waters. In this study, the coordination chemistry of copper, Cu(II), in organic soils and dissolved organic matter (DOM) from soils and streams was investigated by extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy. In both

The first order second moment (FOSM) method is used for deriving a risk measure for safety of people in hotels. The measure is the reliability index ß. The safety is expressed as the evacuation time margin which is the difference between the available time before untenable conditions occur and the evacuation time. These times are subjected to uncertainty. The reliability index is used to determine

A field sampling device to study the transport of aromatic, persistent chlorinated hydrocarbons from water to air was constructed. It was tested in large, outdoor artificial ponds contaminated with polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). The PCB compounds volatilised to air at a rate of 0·9 to 9·6 ng m−2 h−1 depending on levels of PCBs in the water and water temperature.
