Sixteen Corpses : The First Reburials in the Escorial in 1586 and the Dynastic Dynamics that Made Them Happen

This chapter analyses the Spanish Habsburg crypt at the Escorial and the dynamics that caused it to become increasingly inclusive. Two main dynamics are identif ied: family heads exercising increased authority in mandating burials in the Escorial, including for individuals who had indicated other wishes, like siblings and adult children. And peripheral relatives who previously would not have expec

Nordic influences on Swedish construction law - an example on the value of comparing standard contracts

This article investigates the dependence on standard contracts in Swedish construction law, particularly AB 04 and ABT 06, due to a lack of specialized laws. Comparing them to similar contracts from other Nordic countries demonstrates the value of cross-border legal understanding. A 2018 Swedish Supreme Court judgment highlights this technique, implying that comparative analysis might improve lega

Efficient Absorbance-Based Assay for Rapid Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing of Enterobacterales

It is increasingly important to rapidly receive information on the antimicrobial susceptibility of bacteria due to the rise in antimicrobial resistance worldwide. However, traditional phenotypic methods are time-consuming. Thus, the objective of this study was to develop a rapid assay that can detect antibiotic-resistant bacterial isolates phenotypically in less than 2 h. The microplate assay used

The Growth of Food Aid in Sweden – How Demand and Supply are Transforming Charitable Organisations

The purpose of this article is to describe and analyse the growth in food aid in Sweden, and how it affects the non-profit organisations providing it. The particular type of food aid in focus is large-scale collaborations between charitable non-profit organisations and the food industry, through which food surplus is turned into food aid for people in food insecurity. The first examples of such fo

China’s Crisis Governance and Evolving State-Society Relations during the COVID-19 Pandemic

Existing studies on China’s COVID-19 response have gravitated to a macro-level,formal institutional analysis, focusing either on the effectiveness of the policy in early stage virus containment or on the growing negative impacts of COVID policy practices on China’s socio-political landscape at the late stage. Using serial interviewsaccompanied by online observations and documents, this thesis redi

Measurement of jet substructure in boosted Formula Presented events with the ATLAS detector using Formula Presented of 13 TeV Formula Presented collisions

Measurements of the substructure of top-quark jets are presented, using Formula Presented of 13 TeV Formula Presented collision data recorded with the ATLAS detector at the LHC. Top-quark jets reconstructed with the anti-Formula Presented algorithm with a radius parameter Formula Presented are selected in top-quark pair (Formula Presented) events where one top quark decays semileptonically and the

Search for magnetic monopoles and stable particles with high electric charges in (Formula presented.) TeV pp collisions with the ATLAS detector

We present a search for magnetic monopoles and high-electric-charge objects using LHC Run (Formula presented.) TeV proton-proton collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector. A total integrated luminosity of 138 fb−1 was collected by a specialized trigger. No highly ionizing particle candidate was observed. Considering the Drell-Yan and photon-fusion pair production mechanisms as benchmark models, cr

Performance of the ATLAS forward proton Time-of-Flight detector in Run 2

We present performance studies of the Time-of-Flight (ToF) subdetector of the ATLAS Forward Proton (AFP) detector at the LHC. Efficiencies and resolutions are measured using high-statistics data samples collected at low and moderate pile-up in 2017, the first year when the detectors were installed on both sides of the interaction region. While low efficiencies are observed, of the order of a few p

Rethinking (Human) bodies in HRI : Embodied interactions every day

Significant amounts of HRI research effort are spent on the design/evaluation of robot bodies. Critical discussion and debates concerning the way bodies are treated and considered within HRI have tended to focus on the implications of designing/interacting with highly anthropomorphic robots, yet drawing attention away from the human body in HRI, particularly in the context of everyday interactions

Ett intellektuellt proletariat : Fackliga strategier bland svenska folkbibliotekarier

The Swedish public librarians’ union (SFF) was founded in 1938 and joined the larger DIK union in 1972. SFF’s roots can be traced back to a union of library assistants at Stockholm’s library. From its start, SFF fought for higher wages and improved status for public librarians. SFF’s repertoire for collective confrontations consists of methods inspired by theworkers’ and civil servants’ movements.

Citizens’ experiences of enablers and barriers to obtaining digital citizenship: : E-applications for social assistance

This article focuses on citizens’ experiences of enablers of- and barriers to obtaining digital citizenship. E-applications for social assistance are used as an exemplar. In Sweden, as in many countries, there is political pressure on welfare services to become more digitalized, and to offer different kinds of self-service technology such as e-applications. Even if the goals of implementing these

Sharing housing: a solution to – or a reflection of – housing inequality?

Shared housing is a rather unusual phenomenon in Sweden. However, due to the decreasing availability of affordable housing and a large share of single-person households in urban areas, sharing is on the rise and new forms of shared housing have entered the market. By analysing how shared housing overlaps with existing patterns of socioeconomic segregation and by interviewing developers of diverse

Lessons from the 'Dark' Side: Emotional Labour and Positioning in Cross-Sectoral Collaborations

Collaboration across disciplines and stakeholders is important in handling complex societal problems. Even if collaborating is acknowledged as contributing towards societal change and innovation, collaborators’ emotional experiences during development, consolidation and completion of a given project are underexplored. This article discusses emotional labour in three cross-sectoral collaborations u
