Inom området för tvistelösning, har skiljedom genom historien blivit ett allt populärare alternativ till rättstvistprocessen. De viktigaste inslagen i skiljedom ger avtalsparterna med många fördelar såsom diskretion, effektivitet och lägre kostnader, genom att göra det smidigare i ett antal olika forum och branscher där dessa aspekter är avgörande. Dessutom kan skiljedomsförfarandet erbjuda avtalsIn the world of dispute resolution, arbitration has throughout history been an increasingly popular alternative to the litigation process. The major features of arbitration provide contracting parties with many advantages such as discreetness, efficiency and lower costs; making it preferable in a various number of branches and industries where such features are crucial. Furthermore, the arbitratio

How are bribes supposed to be given or taken? In this article, we study how individuals from countries with low tolerance of corruption learn, teach others and present themselves as knowledgeable about the etiquette of bribes. This involves the social practices of everyday corruption and petty bribes when working as ’strangers’ in countries where such exchanges are more common. Previous interviews

This article examines a case study of international Communist propaganda during the Cold War. The Institute of Historical and Socio-Political Research (ISISP), a historical propaganda organization affiliated to the Romanian Communist Party (RCP), succeeded in penetrating the Iron Curtain by distributing its works through a social network provided by the Italian Liberation Movement Institute, and i

The distinction between primary and secondary iconic signs, which I first made with regard to pictures, has been applied by other scholars to language, gesture, and music. Taking stock of this process, it has become necessary to clarify the distinction, insisting on the fact that secondary iconicity is not conventionality, but a kind of iconicity which is in itself not sufficient to define a meani

The early Greek translation of the Qur’an has received little notice, not least due to the many claims that it was a faulty and inadequate attempt of rendering the Qur’an into Greek. This article argues that the faults are very few and minor, and that the early translation (from before 870 CE) should instead be read as a serious example of early Qur’anic interpretation as well as a documentation o

The 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethyl (TMSEt) β-glycosides of globotetraose [β-d-GalNAc-(1 → 3)-α-d-Gal-(1 → 4)-β-d-Gal-(1 → 4)-d-Glc] and the terminal trisaccharide, as well as the methyl α-glycoside 1 of the terminal disaccharide, were synthesised by silver trifluoromethanesulfonate-promoted β-glycosylation of suitably protected galactoside, galabioside, and globotrioside alcohols with 3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-

This thesis is composed of five papers, which all attempt to optimise calculations of scattering amplitudes in high-energy-physics collisions. These scattering amplitudes are a key part of theoretical predictions for particle-physics experiments like the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The first four papers are the main topic of the thesis, and describe a novel method called chirality flow. Chirali

The COVID-19 pandemic had disastrous effects on health and economic activity worldwide, including in the Euro Area. The application of mandatory lockdowns contributed to a sharp fall in production and a rise in unemployment, inducing an expansionary fiscal and monetary response. Using a uniquely large macro database, this paper examines the effects of the pandemic and the ensuing economic policies

BACKGROUND: The EAT-Lancet Commission proposed a globally environmentally sustainable dietary pattern featuring mainly plant-based foods in 2019. However, evidence on this dietary pattern in preventing coronary events is minimal.OBJECTIVE: We aimed to examine the association between the EAT-Lancet diet and risk of coronary events.METHODS: The Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort study (recruited between 1

The identification of new members in the Cdk and cyclin families, functions for many of which are still emerging, has added new facets to the cell cycle regulatory network. With roles extending beyond the classical regulation of cell cycle progression, these new players are involved in diverse processes such as transcription, neuronal function, and ion transport. Members closely related to Cdks an

Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) are a family of bacterial protein toxins produced by various Clostridium species. They are traditionally classified into seven major serotypes (BoNT/A-G). Recent progress in sequencing microbial genomes has led to an ever-growing number of subtypes, chimeric toxins, BoNT-like toxins, and remotely related BoNT homologs, constituting an expanding BoNT superfamily. Recen

The Routledge Companion to Media and Tourism provides a comprehensive overview of the research into the convergence of media and tourism and specifically investigates the concept of mediatized tourism.This companion offers a holistic look at the relationship between media and tourism by drawing from a global range of contributions by scholars from disciplines across the humanities and social scien

Let S be the random walk obtained from “coin turning” with some sequence {pn}n≥2, as introduced in [8]. In this paper we investigate the scaling limits of S in the spirit of the classical Donsker invariance principle, both for the heating and for the cooling dynamics. We prove that an invariance principle, albeit with a non-classical scaling, holds for “not too small” sequences, the order const·n−

Explores the interaction between corporate law and competition law and suggests renewed focus on this important area.
