Emerging Welfare States: Comparing East Asian and Scandinavian Redistribution Models in a Global Context

In this paper we discuss social policy in relation to different development contexts, where characteristics and outcomes of social policies in different sectors ( e.g.,housing, care, education, social security) are compared. The paper relates to the discussion on the causes and outcomes of welfare state management in different contexts. However, existing analytical models do not fit the mixtures

Sätt och apparat för provtagning av reaktiva föreningar i en aerosol

Submikrona partiklar som innehåller reaktiva föreningar i en provaerosol uppsamlas för kemisk bestämning av partiklarna, utan oönskade förändringar i den kemiska sammansättningen hos partiklarna. En känd reagensvätska levereras till ett poröst material i fluidkommunikation med provaerosolen, och reagensvätskan bringas att förångas till en ånga med tillhanddahållna uppvärmningsorgan. Reagensångan b

Self-rated health among very old people in European countries : An explorative study in Latvia and Sweden

Objectives: To explore and gain insight into factors related to self-rated health (SRH) among very old people in two European countries. Methods: The study was based on Latvian (n = 301) and Swedish (n = 397) data from the baseline of the Enabling Autonomy, Participation, and Well-Being in Old Age: The Home Environment as a Determinant for Healthy Ageing Survey Study. Besides descriptive statistic

Antigenic relationships between human and cobra complement factors C3 and cobra venom factor (CVF) from the Indian cobra (Naja naja)

The presence of a factor immunologically related to cobra venom factor (CVF) was demonstrated in serum and plasma from the Indian cobra (Naja naja kaoutia). The factor was purified from cobra plasma by affinity chromatography on an anti-CVF gel and was found to consist of a protein composed of two polypeptide chains similar in size to those of human C3. With use of immunoblotting technique, common

The logic of isomorphism and its uses

We present a class of first-order modal logics, called transformational logics, which are designed for working with sentences that hold up to a certain type of transformation. An inference system is given, and com- pleteness for the basic transformational logic HOS is proved. In order to capture ‘up to isomorphism’, we express a very weak version of higher category theory in terms of first-order m
