Isomorphism, Isopraxism and Isonymism: Complementary or Competing Processes?

New institutional theory has been critizised, for describing institutionalization as a static qualitative state rather than a process. In this paper we provide an extended understanding of the process of institutionalization by replacing the mechanical concept of diffusion by the concept of translation and an analytical model of "trevel of ideas". Analyzing the field material from three cases of t

Duellanten och rättvisan : Duellbrott och synen på manlighet i stormaktsväldets slutskede

I denna bok utforskas den rättsliga hanteringen av duellbrott som ärekränkningar och dueller med dödlig utgång under stormaktsväldets slutskede. Med inspiration från New Cultural History och teorier om manlighet och våld analyseras lagtexter, rättsfall, prästers och rättslärdas skrifter samt anklagade duellanters brev och nådeansökningar. Studien fokuserar på hur den rättsliga diskursen kring duelThis dissertation examines duelling crimes in Sweden during the first half of the 18th century. During this period such crimes could involve verbal insults concerning honour as well as duelling, resulting in death. Inspired by the methods and perspectives of New Cultural History and by theories of masculinity the study argues that masculine violence is a cultural category that is historically deve

An antenna system and a method for operating an antenna system

An antenna system is disclosed that includes two or more antennas and an impedance matching network. The antennas of the antenna system are closely separated, such as by a distance of no more than a wavelength of received signals divided by two. The impedance matching network is adapted to respond to and counteract performance degradation resulting from cross coupling between the antennas. Related

Object-Oriented Modeling and Predictive Control of the Moisture Content in Paper Production

Drying is an important process in paper manufacturing, where steam heated cylinders are used to dry paper. Control of the moisture content is accomplished by adjusting the steam pressure in the cylinders. This paper presents a nonlinear dynamic model, based on heat and mass balances for steam, cylinder, and paper. It is implemented in the object-oriented modeling language Modelica and is used to e

Propagation in bianisotropic media - reflection and transmission

In this paper a systematic analysis that solves the wave propagation problem in a general bianisotropic, stratified media is presented. The method utilizes the concept of propagators, and the representation of these operators is simpli- fied by introducing the Cayley-Hamilton theorem. The propagators propagate the total tangential electric and magnetic fields in the slab and only outside the slab
