Over the last few years, we have witnessed a surge in protest movements around the world. As planet Earth shows its vulnerability and a global pandemic has fundamentally recalibrated the textures of our individual and collective lives, a shared concern for survival triggers individuals and groups to contest the status quo and to call for alternative solutions to the pressing issues of our time. Th

One main reason why Homo sapiens rule the world is because they are being more creative than other tribes. By the same token, organizations that are more creative can survive longer and better than their less creative counterparts. In this study, the author provides her insights into the meaning of creativity, the myths of creativity, and the recipe for creativity.

While Ellis, Reid, and Kramer’s life history framework is convincing in explaining individual variation in life history strategies, it has certain limitations, which we discuss – drawing notably on the economic theory of fertility choice. In particular, we suggest that ambient cues to extrinsic mortality alone are not sufficient to trigger sustained net fertility decline.

We discuss two variations of Edwards’ duality theorem. More precisely, we prove one version of the theorem for cones not necessarily containing all constant functions. In particular, we allow the functions in the cone to have a non-empty common zero set. In the second variation, we replace suprema of point evaluations and infima over Jensen measures by suprema of other continuous functionals and i

Kortvariga intensiva regn med varaktighet upp till en timme åren 1980–2007 från nederbördsmätare i Malmöhar analyserats för att finna intensiteter med lång återkomsttid. Oberoende observationer för olika stationer harsammanförts till en serie till vilken sannolikhetsfördelningar anpassats. Korttidsregnmätningars tillförlitlighetdiskuteras. De extrema händelserna har behandlats individuellt. För atShort-term intensive storms of duration up to an hour the years 1980–2007 from rain gauges in Malmö havebeen analyzed to find intensities of long return periods. Non-dependent observations from different stationshave been combined into a series to which probability functions have been adjusted. The extreme events havebeen investigated individually. The reliability of rain measurements is discussed

The European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), a leading facility in synchrotron science, plays a crucial role in supporting both the local and the international scientific community by providing advanced instrumentation for their research. However, our understanding of the actual reach of the facility and its spatial dynamics remains limited. Thus, a methodology is proposed where author affi

The metal beaker that was found in the house is a unique object. The shape arouses associations with late antique glasses. The beaker is covered with embossed gold bands with figure representations carried out in early Style I. The bands were probably produced around 500 AD. The body of the beaker might be contemporaneous or possibly also older, with the bands as a later addition. The beaker is co

This paper investigates whether increasing the amount of control a learner has in his/ her learning increases his/her willingness to pay for that learning, or his/her reservation wage for a topic related task. Using a small scale online experiment, separating participants into two groups, each corresponding to a different treatment; one with control and one without, this paper found no significant

Fenomenet utstationering av arbetstagare på EU:s inre marknad regleras i såväl unionsrätten som i medlemsstaternas nationella arbetsrätt. Uppsatsen undersöker hur rättsutvecklingen sett ut på unionsnivå med avseende på regleringen utstationering av arbetstagare och hur denna rättsutveckling påverkat den svenska arbetsrätten. Utvecklingen har präglats av framtagandet av sekundärrättsliga instrumentThe posting of workers within the internal market of the EU is regulated in European Union law as well as the labour law of member states. The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the regulation of the posting of workers has evolved in European Union law and how this legal development has impacted Swedish labour law as it pertains to the posting of workers. This field of regulation has been im

This is an explorative study of source material that has not been studied before, journals from Asylerna för husvilla in the beginning of the 20th century Stockholm. Asylerna för husvilla was a municipal organisation which was a part of the public poor relief in Stockholm at the time and offered temporal lodging, ”asyler”, for homeless people. The study is a quantitative study of the people who st

Better signal strength is required to provide a good signal service to the UE. For this, different methods and techniques are available, one of them is codebook type II precoding. This method has a potential to provide an amount of energy to the user in the required direction more precisely than Codebook type I. Therefore this method will be put to the test, for a given SNR range, by comparing the

Åldern för jordens inre kärna är en gåta som har förbryllat forskare i många decennier. Allt från en ålder lika hög som jordens magnetfält (mellan 3,5 och 4,2 Ga) i den ena änden, ner till 0,5 Ga i den andra änden. Eftersom den inre kärnan existerar på en fullkomligt oåtkomlig plats i jordens innersta centrum, medför detta självklara svårigheter när det kommer till direkta observationer (med seismThe age of the Earth's inner core is an enigma that has puzzled scientists for many decades. Everything from an age as high as the Earth's magnetic field (between 3.5 and 4.2 Ga) at one end, down to 0.5 Ga at the other end. Since the inner core exists in a completely inaccessible place in the innermost center of the Earth, this presents obvious difficulties when it comes to direct observat
