Ambivalent Friendship : Anglican Conflict Handling and Education for Peace in Jerusalem 1920-1948

Popular Abstract in Swedish Denna avhandling fokuserar en religiös aktör i det civila samhället under en konfliktfylld tid. Judiska, muslimska och kristna barn studerade tillsammans i anglikanska missionsskolor under den brittiska mandattiden i Palestina. Jerusalem var då etniskt och religiöst delat. Det anglikanska utbildningsprojektet var en del av den Anglikanska kyrkans försök att främja konflThis thesis concerns a religious actor in the civil society in times of violent conflict. During the British Mandate period in Palestine, Jewish, Muslim and Christian children studied together at Anglican missionary schools. At this time Jerusalem bore all the imprints of ethnic and religious separation and division. The Anglican educational project became part of the efforts made by the Anglican

Experimental Investigation of Laminar Flame Speeds for Medium Calorific Gas with Various Amounts of Hydrogen and Carbon Monoxide Content at Gas Turbine Temperatures

It is expected that, in the future, gas turbines will be operated on gaseous fuels currently unutilized. The ability to predict the range of feasible fuels, and the extent to which existing turbines must be modified to accommodate these fuels, rests on the nature of these fuels in the combustion environment. Understanding the combustion behavior is aided by investigation of syngases of similar com

Membrane emulsification modelling: how can we get from characterisation to design?

There has been an increasing interest in a new technique for making emulsions known as membrane emulsification, which uses a microporous membrane operated in cross-flow. The continuous phase is pumped along the membrane and sweeps away dispersed phase droplets forming from pore openings as shown in Fig. 1. The effects ofprocess parameters in membrane emulsification have been studied, especially on

Evaluating independent spike models

Markov regime switching models are often used to model energy prices. We have applied these to six electricity markets. The seasonal variation is corrected for by using the month ahead forward price as a predictor. This paper extends to the current framework by using Gamma distributed spikes, which improves the fit for most energy markets. Applications on European energy markets are provided with

The role of the supply chain perspective for increased customer orientation

In today’s business landscape the view and role of the customer, or market, in shaping and guiding strategy and the competitive advantage of a business, is given increasing attention within many areas of business theory. By definition the supply chain discipline focuses on suppliers from the perspective of the manufacturer, not customers. However this paper illustrates the use of the supply chain

Elements for improving the teaching of the later phases of the mechanical engineering design process

Introduction During the embodiment design and detail design phase, the designer has at his disposal a set of tools and techniques that him or her through the synthesis activity: basic rules, guidelines and principles (see [1]), but in the literature there are general design processes that help the designer to organize their work (e.g. [1]), but not at a very operational level. From a previous stud

I viljan att göra det normala : En kritisk studie av genusperspektivet i missbrukarvården

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen handlar om hur kön görs i en av det sociala arbetets praktiker, nämligen missbrukarvården. Socialt arbete kan förstås som en normaliserande praktik som ger uttryck för samhällets normer och värderingar. Dess syfte är att fostra och anpassa människor så att de passar in i samhället. Under senare år har intresset för att synliggöra och hantera könsfråThe aim of this dissertation is to use intersectional analysis to investigate how gender is made in drug abuse treatment and to examine how the formation of gender interplays with the formation of sexuality, class and ethnicity. Central questions are: What gender(s) are to be shaped in druge abuse treatment? What happens to a gender perspective with emancipatory ambitions when it is incorporated i

Iscensättandet av Solskensolympiaden. Dagspressens konstruktion av föreställda gemenskaper vid Stockholmsolympiaden 1912

This thesis analyses the renegotiation of Swedish national identity in newspapers’ coverage of the Olympics of 1912. The “sun-shine Olympics”, as Swedes have come to term the event, idealises early twentieth-century Sweden and early sports events. Researchers have shown that this era was far from idyllic in Sweden: it was characterised by various battles concerning the proper national community. N
