Stilguider för webben - Hjälpande eller stjälpande?

Det finns idag mycket kunskap om vad som anses utgöra en grund för en bra design i ett användargränssnitt för webben.

Habermas in the garden : broadening the scope of social movements for sustainability

The implicit assumptions of the causal mechanisms for strategic social change propose limits to what transformative social action can be, and risk overlooking untapped resources for change. To address these limitations I use Habermas’ critical social theories on public engagement, systemic rationalit

Räcker en trovärdig berättelse? En granskning av förhållandet mellan målsägandens trovärdighet och den övriga bevisningen i våldtäktsmål

I våldtäktsmål utgör ofta målsägandens berättelse en stor del av bevisningen eftersom bevisning i den här typen av mål kan vara svår att få fram. Därmed blir målsägandens trovärdighet av stor betydelse för utgången i målet. Redan i NJA 1980 s. 225 slog Högsta domstolen (HD) fast att det för än fällande dom inte räcker att målsäganden är mer trovärdig än den tilltalade. Efter detta mål har praxis uIn rape cases, the victim’s story often represents a crucial part of the evidence, since it can be difficult to produce other types of evidence in such cases. Therefore, the victim’s credibility is of great significance for the outcome of a case. Already in NJA 1980 p. 225, the Supreme Court (HD) stated that in order to accomplish a conviction it is not sufficient for a victim to be more credible

Desertification in China : desertification in China, causes and preventive actions in modern time

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Klimatförhållandena i norra Kina samt Mongliet gör dessa områden benägna att drabbas av mark-försämring, vilket i sin irreversibla form ofta hänförs som ökenspridning. Litteraturstudien fokuserar på både tidigare erfarenheter, så som vad olika åtgärder har haft för konsekvenser- bra som dåliga – och även vad olika sätt att sköta marken på har medfört, samt även aThe climatic conditions in northern China and Mongolia make these regions prone to desertification. The results showed that there is quite a lot of disagreement in this matter, as to whether it exists at all and if so what the major explanatory factor is. Some argue that the desertification is due to climatic/natural factors (almost) alone, others that human activities is the major cause, and some

The effect of prophylactic platelet transfusions on point-of-care coagulation parameters in conjunction to central venous catheter insertion—what effect do transfusions have and are they necessary?

Introduction: Platelet transfusions are often used when thrombocytopenic patients are facing a central venous catheter (CVC) insertion, but their use has been up to debate. Point-of-care devices such as thromboelastometry (ROTEM) and platelet aggregometry (Multiplate) better reflect in vivo haemostasis than routine coagulation tests. Aim of the study was to investigate the effects of platelet tran
