I denna text lyfter doktoranderna och aktivisterna Emma Söderman och Pouran Djampour fram organiseringen av No Border Musical och Asylstaffetten som exempel för att fråga oss om hur politiskt aktörskap kan göras möjligt i en samhällsordning där medborgarskap ses som en förutsättning för politiskt deltagande.

Phosphor thermometry, a remote temperature sensing technique, is widely implemented to measure the temperature of different combustion engines components. The presence of engine lubricant can influence the behavior of the applied sensor materials, known as thermographic phosphors, and thus leading to erroneous temperature measurements. The effect of two engine lubricants on decay times originating

Sweden's reputation as one of the most encompassing welfare states in the world is maintained by means of a good self-image, not least in relation to refugee policies. At the same time, external authorities have been critical of Sweden's handling of the process of seeking asylum. Drawing on Stanley Cohen's concepts of denial and partial acknowledgment, the article explores how Swedish state offici

On the basis of two points of departure: (1) no state has clean hands and (2) the types of crime a state commits vary with state formations, this article explores cases where the Swedish state and its agencies have been held responsible for some form of wrongdoing. Drawing on a total of 8,561 judgments issued against the state by agencies of control (the Parliamentary Ombudsman, the Chancellor of

We investigate the workings of an early eighteenth century instrument for predicting eclipses described by the French astronomer de la Hire in his book Tabulae Astronomicae.Two Burmese eclipse calculations, one lunar and one solar, are analysed using examples from a Burmese manuscript. The fundamental parameters are with some important exceptions the same as in the Suryasiddhanta, but the handling of, for instance, parallax in the solar eclipse is different and much simplified. Specific to Burma are also the shadow calculations.

We investigate the workings of an early eighteenth century instrument for predicting eclipses described by the French astronomer de la Hire in his book Tabulae Astronomicae.

The methods of calculation of shadow lengths of the Sun and the Moon seem to be a specific for Burmese astronomy and have many original features. The present paper gives a detailed exposition of these methods with an analysis of an example taken from a Burmese manuscript.

Romer är en av Sveriges fem nationella minoriteter. I Sverige skattas den romska minoriteten utgöra ungefär 40 000 personer, vilket skall ställas i relation till världens 20 miljoner romer. I den här publikationen # nns en utvärdering av den verksamhet som bedrivits av Romskt informations- och kunskapscenter (RIKC) under 2009, samt en utvärdering av den verksamhet som bedrivits vid Romsk kul
