Under covid-19-pandemin uppmärksammades tillämpningen av handlings-offentligheten. Covid-19-pandemin utgjorde en kris som innebar olika former av påfrestningar för bl.a. svenska myndigheter. Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda och analysera om det finns några inskränkningar i handlingsoffentligheten under normala förhållanden och under särskilda situationer som kris, krigsfara eller krig. Utöver det During the COVID-19 pandemic attention was paid to the right to access official documents. The COVID-19 pandemic constituted a crisis that meant various forms of stress for, among others, Swedish authorities. The purpose of the essay is to examine and analyze whether there are any restrictions on the right to access official documents under normal conditions and during special situations such as

The main purpose of this thesis is to present a Cultural-Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) based analysis of the activities conducted by and with visually impaired users supported by audio-haptic technology.This thesis covers several studies conducted in two projects. The studies evaluate the use of audio-haptic technologies to support and/or mediate the activities of people with visual impairment

Higher energy prices contributed significantly to the increase in inflation. However, core inflation, excluding the direct contribution of energy prices, was also significantly above the European Central Bank’s inflation target, which was partially due to the highly expansion

This is an account that should be heard of an important struggle: the struggle of a large group of experts who came together at the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic to warn the world about the risk of airborne transmission and the consequences of ignoring it. We alerted the World Health Organization (WHO) about the potential significance of the airborne transmission of SARS-CoV-2 and the urgent

Based on an ethnographic study of non-conformist mosques, this article demonstrates how Muslims may adopt a Sunni or Shiʿa identity while navigating spaces that are institutionalised as such but give much less importance to this identity – if any – when occupying less structured spaces. It may, for example, have little influence on what religious literature they read, which preachers they follow o

Many of the physiological and morphological adaptations permitting its winter endurance in this harsh environment are well understood.

Programmable metasurfaces constitute an emerging paradigm, envisaged to become a key enabling technology for Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) due to their powerful control over electromagnetic waves. The HyperSurface (HSF) paradigm takes one step further by embedding a network of customized integrated circuit (IC) controllers within the device with the aim of adding intelligence, connecti

The thesis explores the ‘missing link’ in the study of priority-setting for research, development, and innovation (RDI), namely the processes of implementing RDI priorities, and the consequences of these processes. It does so by focusing on how choices, actions, and motivations of implementers of RDI priorities established elsewhere in the policy system enact, or carry out, the priorities, resulti

Band structure calculations for photonic crystals require the numerical solution of eigenvalue problems. In this paper, we consider crystals composed of lossy materials with frequency-dependent permittivities. Often, these frequency dependencies are modeled by rational functions, such as the Lorentz model, in which case the eigenvalue problems are rational in the eigenvalue parameter. After spatia

A high-order interior penalty method for scattering problems in two-dimensions is presented. Results for perfectly conducting objects illustrate the high accuracy of the method at low computational cost.

In 1921, disgruntled and radicalised veterans of the First World War organised the Ukrainian Military Organisation (UVO) after unsuccessfully taking up arms for Ukrainian independence. In 1929 the UVO merged with a number of other far-right groups and student fraternities into the Organisation of Ukrainian Nationalists. The leading figure in the 1920s and 1930s was Evhen’ Konovalets’, a former col

The pre-dispute phase, during which justiciable problems may or may not emerge and transform into legal cases, is complex. Based on a meta-ethnography of 572 articles, all of which apply or refer to Felstiner et al.’s pioneering linear framework of naming, blaming, and claiming, we analysed the many sorting mechanisms that are at play in the pre-dispute phase. We identified the institutional, poli

This research aims to present a synopsis of four eminent theoretical concepts that scholars have expended to help understand how digitalisation has changed the workplace as we used to know it. The research is based on a conceptual approach. It aims to critically synthesise the relevant literature as the principal methodology for analysing work in the selected four research domains where the perspe
