Mama Ludens Goes All-In : Gaming Mothers' Fun Lead the Ludic Revolution

This paper investigates gaming mothers' playing practices, trying to identify their ideas of fun and playfulness. It is a work in progress, the third in a series of empirical studies performed within the framework of the project "Gaming Moms: Juggling Time, Play and Family Life" (Enevold & Hagström, Lund University) undertaken with the aim to revise the usual constructions of gamer identities

Trade Policy Formation when Geography Matters for Specialisation

In this paper, trade policy formation is incorporated into an economic geography model. The political setup used is a modified version of that introduced by Grossman and Helpman (1994) in which policy makers may be in‡uenced by lobbying contributions. On the basis of the underlying trade framework, lobbying activity is performed in benefit of capital interests. Optimal policy outcomes indicate tha

The Tragedy of the Commoners: The Decline of the Customary Marine Tenure System of Tonga

The breakdown of traditional marine tenure systems and overexploitation of marine organisms as a result of rapid modernization, urbanization and population growth in the case of Tonga is outlined. The customary marine tenure system is described and the threats against the coral reefs are discussed. It is shown how accumulative strategies correlate with the move toward overexploitation. It is argue

Preliminary notes on the phonology, orthography and vocabulary of Semnam (Austroasiatic, Malay Peninsula)

This paper reports tentatively some features of Semnam, a Central Aslian language spoken by some 250 people in the Perak valley, Peninsular Malaysia. It outlines the unusually rich phonemic system of this hitherto undescribed language (e.g. a vowel system comprising 36 distinctive nuclei), and proposes a practical orthography for it. It also includes the c. 1,250- item wordlist on which the analys

Educating for a digital future – Walking three roads simultaneously: one analog and two digital

In this paper we introduce the digitization challenge for higher education. Furthermore, three parallel ‘roads’ are proposed to consider in designing higher education content to address the digitization challenge. Program designers and educators will benefit by giving consideration to: (1) non-digital teaching activities that promote digital literacy, (2) digital opportunities to enhance tradition

Synthesis of amino- and hydroxyl-substituted bridged bicyclic compounds and their application in asymmetric catalysis

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett kiralt föremål definieras som ett föremål som inte är identiskt med sin spegelbild. Många molekyler har denna egenskap och uppträder då i två former, s. k. enantiomerer. Även om enantiomererna har samma fysikaliska egenskaper i en akiral miljö uppträder de olika när de införs i en kiral miljö. En enkel liknelse är att en höger hand passar bäst i en höger handske ochIn this work, hydroxyl- and amino-substituted bridged bicyclic compounds based on bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane, bicyclo[2.2.2]octane and bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane were synthesized and investigated for use in asymmetric catalysis. An improved process for the preparation of an optically active key intermediate for the synthesis of bicyclo[2.2.2]octane-derivatives, using genetically engineered yeast, was devel

ESTIMATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF SUNSHADES USING OUTDOOR MEASUREMENTS AND THE SOFTWARE TOOL PARASOL V 2.0

Solar shading devices can significantly reduce cooling loads, improve thermal comfort and reduce potential glare problems in commercial buildings. However, measured data or tools to facilitate a comparison among various shading devices have previously not been available to designers. The Solar Shading Project at Lund University was initiated in 1997 to increase the knowledge on shading devices. Th
