The middle class and its importance for democracy: A European study of the middle class, decreasing democracy and rising extremism surrounding the financial crisis of 2008-2010

By testing theories from the likes of Seymour Martin Lipset and Francis Fukuyama, this thesis aims to illuminate the correlations between the size of a nation’s middle class and the stability and rigor of its democracy. Using quantitative data on democracy and middle class size in the time surrounding the financial crisis of 2008-2010, this thesis illustrates the parallel declines in both democrac

Threads and Images : The Use of Scripture in Apophthegmata Patrum

Popular Abstract in Swedish Studien behandlar bibelbruket i den grekiska systematiska samlingen av Apophthegmata Patrum ( kenfädernas tänkespråk). Efter en inledande genomgång av tidigare forskning på biblebruk i allmänhet och det i tänkespråken i synnerhet formuleras undersökningens syfte så: att beskriva hur bibeltexten kontextualiseras, dvs. hur texten infogas i den undervisning och de ideal so

A framework to assess the degrowth transformative capacity of niche initiatives

As humanity faces multiple mutually-reinforcing social-ecological crises, rhetoric on transformations abounds. However, transformations are normative, politically-contested processes that risk perpetuating, or even exacerbating, the ecological and socio-economic crises of today. We argue that transformations should seek to enhance human and non-human well-being within the planetary boundaries; a g

Accounting for English article interpretation by L2 speakers

Ionin, Ko and Wexler (2004a) have shown that L2 speakers of English whose L1’s lack articles (Russian and Korean) appear to fluctuate in their interpretation of the and a, allowing them to encode either definiteness or specificity. They argue that these are two options of an Article Choice Parameter offered by Universal Grammar, and that the Russian and Korean speakers fluctuate between them when

Warmth and competence in implicit stereotypes and discrimination

Popular Abstract in SwedishEtt väl etablerat fynd inom personbedömningsforskning är att vi människor bedömer varandra på ett mer nyanserat sätt än enbart en endimensionell skala (bra-dålig). Istället använder vi oss av två grundläggande dimensioner för personbedömningar. Den första dimensionen (värme) ger oss svaret på andra människors avsikter (t.ex. vänligt eller fientligt inställda till oss). DIt is well established that we do not judge other people on a one-dimensional scale (i.e., good - bad), but rather based on two fundamental dimensions. The first dimension is warmth, which essentially answers the questions of what the other person’s intentions are (e.g., friendly or malicious). The second dimension is competence, which in contrast answers the question regarding the person’s capabi

Ghost Installation: Rönnells

In January of 2022, I made an installation event at Rönnells. I set larger speakers up on the balcony, and played three of the large-scale multi-channel compositions from this project– Skogen är bäst på bild, Vädersolsmodernitet and Vart ska dom ta vägen nu?–at a very much lowered volume. I made them hoping they could function both as concert pieces and as installations. The event at Rönnels prove

Translation as culture : The example of pictorial-verbal transposition in Sahagún's primeros memoriales and codex florentino

Many items of culture which are conveyed from one culture to another may take verbal form, and then constitute what Jakobson called "translation proper." If such diffusions involve a co-occurrent change of semiotic systems, they are of such a different nature, that we better reserve another term for it: transposition. Whether or not accompanied by transpositions, such as pictures, translational ev

The Subscriptions to Mark’s Gospel and History of Reception

Den här artikeln granskar subskriptionerne på Markusevangeliet i 157 grekiska handskrifter, och noterar deras gradvisa utveckling från att vara identisk med titeln i den tidigaste fasen till att bli mer och mer utarbetad och betydelsefull för tolkningshistorien. Tidigt, vilket återspeglas i titeln, förknippades det andra evangeliet med Markus, känd för att vara Petrus lärjunge och tolk. Under det

Poetic Diction and Poetic References in the Preludes of Plato’s Laws

This doctoral dissertation investigates how Plato elaborates and incorporates the works of the poets in the preludes to the laws. It is argued that the poetic style of the preludes represents a key element for the Athenian’s purpose of persuading the citizens of Magnesia to spontaneously abide to the new legislation that is being laid out.The analysis is divided in four chapters. Chapter 1 discuss

I Skuggan av Korruption

The 2008 Financial Crisis left a lasting impact on countries across the world. Unemployment, negative growth rates, and instability stretched far over and continuous to play a role in many countries' affairs, the aftermath of which can still be felt today. In Europe countries employed different measures in order to combat the problems brought on by the crisis. Theory demonstrates that countrie

Nutritional practices in long-term care across five European countries : Findings from the COST Action PROGRAMMING

Objectives: High quality nutrition and medical nutrition therapy in long-term care (LTC) settings are essential to overcome malnutrition and ensure a better quality of life. Heterogenous and often insufficient regulations contribute to a disparity in nutritional practices across Europe. The aim of the study was to gather information on nutrition-related regulations and practices, as well as establ

The Concept of Fear in the Bible: Two conceptual studies from a Cognitive Linguistics perspective

It is told that there are 366 instances of different forms of ”do not be afraid” in the Bible, one for every day of the year including leap years. It sounds like a nice thought; however, proving it would probably require a lot of time. Nevertheless, fear is a recurring topic in the Bible and can be interpreted in many different ways. The Bible is with no doubt a huge source of knowledge for Christ

Parallel Trade in the European Union: Competition Law Aspects

This thesis is devoted to competition law aspects of parallel trade regulation in the European Union. The long line of case law of the European Court of Justice and the European Commission reflects the changes of the approaches towards the problem of parallel trade restrictions, where the very first cases establish the fundamental framework and policies for development of the internal market throu

Determinants of local ant (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) species richness and activity density across Europe

1. Species richness is influenced by local habitat features and large-scale climatic gradients. Usually, both influences are studied in isolation because of the divergent spatial scales at which they occur. Here, we compared the influence of large-scale climate and local habitat type on European ants using a continent-wide, standardised sampling programme. 2. We investigated species richness and a
