Since Abney (1987), generative syntax has invested much interest in the structure of the Noun Phrase, producing numerous theoretical as well as descriptive studies. Within the field of Scandinavian Noun Phrase studies, Delsing (1993) was a groundbreaking work that has since been followed up by several important studies, including Vangsnes et al. (2003) and Julien (2005). This field of inquiry is e

In this study, we explored the implications of a groundwater development project on women's workload and their experience of marital violence in a Bangladesh village. We believe that the project facilitated irrigation water but also that it resulted in seasonal domestic water shortages. Men used deep motorized pumps for irrigation, and women used shallow handpumps for domestic purposes. Many handp

Statistics from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency show a sharp increase in the number of sick leave cases with the diagnoses Concussion, S06.0, and Postconcussional syndrome, F07.2, between the years 2010 and 2022. The reason for the increase has not been established and needs further investigation. One possible reason is that the acute phase treatment recommendations of individuals with mild tr

Through semi-structured interviews conducted with representatives of three different NGOs located in The Gambia, this qualitative study explores how practices and activities in the organisations improve educational opportunities for girls in the country. The study identifies specific societal challenges that the NGOs try to remedy with their work, and what the focus is in their capacity building.

This study explores why men's employment rates remain relatively stable after childbirth, in contrast to the significant changes often observed in women's employment. Despite progress in gender equality, cultural, economic, and structural factors continue to influence parental work patterns across European countries. Using survey data from the International Social Survey Programme (ISSP),

In the post-World War II era, international lawyers have occupied the front seat in the study of international organisations (IOs). During the past decade, this disciplinary hierarchy has grown to feel increasingly unsatisfying. This chapter offers an anthropological take on the study of IOs building both on the past decade of anthropological work and my ethnography at the UN Human Rights Committe

Multi-Key Homomorphic Signatures (MK-HS) enable clients in a system to sign and upload messages to an untrusted server. At any later point in time, the server can perform a computation C on data provided by t different clients, and return the output y and a short signature σC,y vouching for the correctness of y as the output of the function C on the signed data. Interestingly, MK-HS enable verifie

Frivilligarbete har efter ett par avgöranden i EU-domstolen kommit under särskild belysning också av Parlamentet. Rättspraxis har skjutit frivilligarbete allt närmare definitionerna av anställning och förvärvsarbete, i vart fall avseende vissa bestämmelser. Artikeln konstaterar att frivilligarbete är ett betydande del av det svenska civilsamhället - exempelvis organiseras i princip all sjöräddning

During the interwar period, there was a surge in cultural diplomacy efforts in Europe. This article investigates the role of cultural diplomacy within the Swedish film society movement, focusing particularly on Lund Film Society’s travels abroad during the 1930s: to Nazi-Germany in 1935 and in 1938 respectively, as well as to the Soviet Union in 1936. Through international exchange, Lund Film Soci

In stochastic modeling of infectious diseases, it has been established that variations in infectivity affect the probability of a major outbreak, but not the shape of the curves during a major outbreak, which is predicted by deterministic models (Diekmann et al., 2012). However, such conclusions are derived under idealized assumptions such as the population size tending to infinity, and the indivi

This article is a response to Steven Enderlein on the translation of Rom 3:23 and its implications for the πίστις Χριστοῦ debate. While affirming Enderlein's suggestion that the verb ὑστερέω is better understood as “lack” rather than “fall short,” we argue against his conclusions (1) that this translation leads to a subjective genitive reading of πίστις Χριστοῦ in Rom 3:22, 26; and (2) that the ve
