Summary In 1895 a posthumous essay by the Swedish poet and scholar Viktor Rydberg (1828- 1895) was published with the, for many modern Europeans, provoking title Den hvita rasens framtid (“The future of the white race”). In the late 20th century however “the white race” was a commonly used expression, it did not indicate any right-wing sympathies. Rydberg himself was a leftist, a social liberal. C
This dissertation is a thematic reading of 1,574 items from four Japanese and three Taiwanese major daily newspapers published in the 2000-2008 period. It argues that the concepts of repetition and representation play key structural and narrative roles in the sources and outlines how these concepts operate and how they interrelate on a content level as well as on a level of larger media frameworks
Basque is spoken by approximately 660,000 people (Trask 1997) in the Basque Country, straddling the border between northern Spain and southern France, particularly in rural areas of the Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa coastline, as well as inland Gipuzkoa and the foothills of the Pyrenees in Navarre. Virtually all Basque speakers are bilingual with either Spanish or French. Nevertheless, Basque is, due to it
Driven av en kärnnyfikenhet på förändringens och förändringssökandets politiska psykologi i motsats till kontinuitet och status quo-upprätthållande i världspolitiken, åtar sig denna avhandling att undersöka den ontologiska dynamiken och de psykiska drivkrafterna bakom revisionistiskt beteende i internationella relationer (IR). Genom att identifiera sig med en konstruktivistisk tendens till "konstiDriven by a core curiosity about the political psychology of change and change-seeking as opposed to continuity and status quo-keeping in world politics, this thesis undertakes to investigate the ontological dynamics and psychic drivers of revisionist behavior in International Relations (IR). Identifying with a constructivist tendency for “constitutive theorizing,” it deploys—and in so doing, theo
Background: Systematic analyses of global health trends can provide an accurate narrative of progress and challenges. We analysed the impact of changing age-specific mortality (epidemiology) and age structure (demography) on crude death rates (CDRs) and causes of death with large or rising mortality to inform the third Lancet Commission on Investing in Health. Methods: Data from the World Populati
Popular Abstract in Swedish Bränslecellen uppfanns redan 1838, det kommersiella genombrottet dröjde till 2007, den framtida potentialen är mycket lovande Domedagsprofetior angående växthuseffektens betydelse för livet på jorden når oss via media allt oftare. Bränsleceller är mycket lovande för ett framtida miljövänligt samhälle. Hög energieffektivitet och inga utsläpp av koldioxid, kväveoxider elFuel cells are electrochemical devices that directly transform chemical energy into electricity. They are promising for future energy systems, since they are energy efficient, able to use renewable fuels and, when hydrogen is used as fuel, there are no direct emissions of greenhouse gases. Various improvements are made during the recent years, however the technology is still in the early phases of
Incidence of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) varies considerably between ethnic groups, with particularly high incidence rates in Pacific Islanders. Here, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) involving 1,554 cases/1,973 controls of European ancestry and 301 cases/348 controls of Oceanian ancestry from the EPITHYR consortium. Our results confirmed the association with the know
Realistic and accurate reconstructions of past vegetation cover are necessary to study past environmental changes. This is important since the effects of human land-use changes (e.g. agriculture, deforestation and afforestation/reforestation) on biodiversity and climate are still under debate. Over the last decade, development, validation, and application of pollen-vegetation relationship models h
Ageism is a social problem that has harmful effects on the wellbeing of older people and needs to be tackled. It is pervasive and evident in the media (e.g., films, television, print and social media). Despite the fact that non-individual actors have adopted social media on a large scale in contemporary society, the social media representation of older people generated by those actors has remained
The product price given when producing offshore is not the entire truth and more companies decide to move their offshore production nearshore (Stentoft et. al, 2016). To measure the actual cost of producing many more parameters than visible costs needs to be taken account for. There are advantages as well as risks with outsourcing and costs can increase with distance such as quality issues, freigh
This thesis examines the phenomena of third-party enforcement in public international law, in a historical as well as in a contemporary perspective. To that end, it traces the role of such enforcement measures from the past into the present. It also studies the potential discrepancies between current unilateral sanctions and the recent changes experienced by international law at large. Two legal m
