I am concerned with Mary Wollstonecraft’s political morality. In it she makes no moral room, I claim, for emotional responses or emotional reasons for action, and it is important that she doesn’t. I will start by pointing at reasons for why it is important. I will then go on to analyse the content of and relations between her main political concepts: the triad of liberty, equality and virtue, with

The diagnosis of perinatal insults currently relies on adequate documentation of general medical and obstetric factors and on radiologic and laboratory assessments. The measurement of brain damage markers may offer an alternative and direct indicator of cell damage in the nervous system when clinical and radiologic assessments are still silent and has the additional advantage of providing a quanti

A comparative study is performed of a deformed mean field theory, represented by the cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky (CNS) model and the spherical shell model. Energy spectra, occupation numbers, B(E2) values, and spectroscopic quadrupole moments in the light pf-shell nuclei are calculated in the two models and compared. The result is also compared to available experimental data which are generally wel

Popular Abstract in Swedish Organisationssammanslagningar är vanligt förekommande inom såväl offentlig som privat verksamhet. Effekterna för de anställda och för organisationerna är beroende av hur integrationsprocessen förlöper. En korsbefruktning kan äga rum när idéer och arbetssätt möts efter sammanslagningen. Syftet med avhandlingen är att analysera integrationsprocessen och undersöka om den kMergers of organizations are a widespread phenomenon in the public as well as in the private sector. The individual and the organizational outcomes are dependent on the success of the integration process. During the integration after a merger, a cross-fertilization of ideas, working methods etc. is possible and could pave the way for creative processes. The aim of the present thesis is to analyze

Popular Abstract in Swedish Malaria är en allvarlig febersjukdom som varje år drabbar nästan 250 miljoner människor. Sjukdomen är mycket utbredd inom tropiska och subtropiska delar av världen och världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) har beräknat att strax under en miljon människor, majoriteten av dem barn, dör av malaria varje år. Malaria har följt människan under mycket lång tid och var länge vanlig iMalaria is a serious disease that causes around 800 000 deaths per year. Current malaria control efforts are hampered by the widespread resistance to common antimalarial drugs, such as the 4-aminoquinoline derivative called chloroquine. Previous research has shown that specific modifications of chloroquine, including inclusion of organometallic fragments into the organic framework, can result in c

Popular Abstract in Swedish I Tallsten barnomsorgs- och skolenhet införde man 1996, som del i en omorganisation av verksamheten, ett nytt tanke- och arbetssätt utifrån en kommunikativ pedagogik. Tre mindre organisatoriska enheter, som var mer eller mindre slutna i förhållande till varandra, slogs samman till en enhet. Ett primärt syfte i sammanhanget var att skapa en helhetssyn på barnet från 1?18This thesis focuses on the pedagogue as a social being and how she or he experiences the social life in preschools and schools in Tallsten. In 1996, the child-care and education authorities in Tallsten introduced a new manner of thinking and working based on the communicative pedagogy. The idea of communicative pedagogy was origanlly put forth by the Danish teacher Lars Rokkjaer. One of the goals

This thesis presents two prime contributions. First, digital filters for both intermediate and base band filtering for mobile communication are presented. Second, a local clock for on-chip clock generation is introduced. The intermediate frequency filter is a digital alternative to today's analog filters. It is a narrow band filter designed for the American digital mobile telephone system accordin

Vad gör en skolledare framgångsrik? Och vad gör en framgångsrik skolledare? I denna artikel presenteras några resultat från forskningsprojektet Framgångsrikt skolledarskap i olika skolkulturer, vilka delvis utgör svar på frågorna. Resultaten härrör från intervjuer, enkäter, observationer och elevuppsatser och utgörs av olika skolaktörers kriterier för bedömning av skolledares framgång. I likhet me

This paper deals with line-drawings, obtained from images of polyhedral objects after edge detection. Such images are used e.g. for recognition and reconstruction. In the presence of noise, in general they do not obey the geometric conditions imposed by the projective imaging process. Under various optimality conditions, algorithms are presented for the correction of such line-drawings, disturbed

Historia förmedlas ofta på ett inflytelserikt sätt på film. I "World War II at 24 Frames a Second" jämförs filmiska representationer av andra världskriget i Danmark, Norge och Sverige med fokus på den senaste tioårsperioden.

One of the most common Neolithic tool types in Scandinavia which is available to us for study today is the axe. Judging by the thousands of such axes found in museum collections, this tool was an important part of Neolithic man's toolkit. While most of the axes which are considered primarily work axes (as opposed to the more ceremonial so-called battle axes) are made of flint, other, non-flint mat

Popular Abstract in Swedish Blödande åderbråck i matstrupen - en jämförande studie mellan kirurgisk shunt och lokal behandling Patienter med skrumplever riskerar många komplikationer. Den mest fruktade är blödning från oesofagusvaricer, dvs åderbråck i matstrupen. Fyrtio procent av patienterna avlider om de inte får behandling. Anledningen till att patienter med skrumplever (cirros) utvecklar oesThis thesis is aimed at evaluating the clinical results of two treatments in patients with bleeding oesophageal varices; the mesocaval interposition shunt (MI shunt) and repeated endoscopic sclerotherapy (ST). 24 patients were randomised to MI shunt and 21 patients to the ST group (mean age 51.6?9.2 and 53.6?10.5 years). Complications include shunt occlusion in 4 %, oesophagitis in 33 % and oesoph

In this paper we study the infinitesimal-time case of the so called multilinear constraints that exist for each subsequence in a sequence of images. These constraints link the infinitesimal motion of the image points with the infinitesimal viewer motion. The analysis is done both for calibrated and uncalibrated cameras. Two simplifications are also presented for the uncalibrated camera case. One s
