It offers a space for critical analysis of how media and communication practices for social change, on the one hand, and analytic conceptions of public spheres and participation, on the other, are currently being reconfigured in both concep

We study inhomogeneous random graphs in the subcritical case. Among other results, we derive an exact formula for the size of the largest connected component scaled by logn, with n being the size of the graph. This generalizes a result for the "rank-1 case". We also investigate branching processes associated with these graphs. In particular, we discover that the same well-known equation for the su

In modern standard Swedish genitive is marked by -s, which, according to the standard analyses, is a phrasal clitic, viz. [mannen på gatan]s åsikt (man on street-s opinion). In dialects in parts of Småland, Halland, and Västergötland a variant on -a or -e, here called a-genitive, is used, primarily on proper names, viz.
