Disasters are not natural; we can choose to prevent them and assist vulnerable populations. This recognition has led to the development

Once again Europe is faced with the challenge to which extent should a democratic state act in a militant manner to combat threats to its democratic future. Croatia and Sweden, both the European Union and Council of Europe member states, are also facing the increased clash between the freedom of expression and the far-right expression that occurs in public debate, therefore, affecting the legislat

The heat wave of 2018 caused up to 8.2% more deaths compared to the year before in Sweden, with higher impacts in other parts of the world. The fact that people spent almost 90% of their times indoors makes the indoor environment
According to the Federal Criminal Police Office, 139 women were killed by their (ex-)partner in 2020. That year, Germany was ranked second highest in estimated number of femicide victims in Europe. As most extreme form of gender-based violence, femicide or feminicide designate the gender-specific killing of women, related to the maintenance of hierarchical gender relations. The topic is little dis

I approach international development from an international relations perspective. To do so, I first review historical and current economic relationships between developed and developing countries. After confirming the existence of hidden value transfers flowing from low income to wealthy countries, I conduct a panel data analysis on 89 developing countries from 1985 to 2017. The main objective of

The findings of the paper demonstrate tha
Mänskliga röster bär på mycket information, och en av de fösta egenskaper vi registrerar är talarens kön. Är det möjligt att omvandla en röst så att lyssnaren ändrar uppfattning? Inom könsbekräftande vård av transpersoner ingår ibland talterapi för att uppnå en röst mer i linje med patientens könsidentitet. Där fokuserar behandlingen på att ändra de aspekter av rösten som associeras med kön: gruWhen we listen to human speech, one of the first characteristics we assess is the gender of the speaker. For individuals who suffer from gender dysphoria, this may cause them to be negatively impacted by their voice not matching their gender identity. Therefore, some persons attempt to change their voices with a speech-language therapist. Differences between the average female and male voice have
