The article aims to provide a more historically grounded approach to the relationship between communication and participation, by distinguishing different waves of media democratization. The article first discusses the concept of participation and some of its complexities, and then sketches a series of intense moments of participation in and through the media in (mainly the second half) the 20th a

Hampton (1988) discovered that people are subject to overextension they categorize some things as falling under a conjunction (e.g., they categorize chess as a sport which is also a game) but not as falling under both of the corresponding conjuncts they do not categorize chess as a sport). Although subsequent literature has replicated this effect with a wider range of constructions than those orig

This thesis will provide a formal analysis of Joshua Oppenheimer’s documentary The Act of Killing (2012), by analyzing the different stylistic techniques used in the reenactments such as the cinematography, editing, sound and mise-en-scène, and by analyzing the ways in which these documentary techniques affected the film and the people who committed the crimes. This research also reflects the way

Abstract: A central debate within the field of Economic History and Growth studies is the effect trade liberalization has on the long-term growth of an economy. One radical switch in the foundation of an economy is from Import Substitution Industrialization (ISI) to Trade Liberalization. Mexico is one of the economies that have undergone this transformation since the early 1980s. This paper makes

BACKGROUND: The use of dietary fibre in bread products is increasing because of consumer demand for healthier products. However, an increase in dietary fibre level changes the rheological properties of the dough and also the quality properties of the final bread product. In this study, effects on dough and bread staling were followed after replacing 3% of wheat flour by fibre-rich additives (fine

Popular Abstract in Swedish Förlossnings- och barnläkare har i många år sökt efter ett instrument för utvärdering av det nyfödda barnets hälsotillstånd. Virginia Apgar introducerade 1953 ett poängsystem som bygger på en subjektiv bedömning av barnets hudfärg, hjärtfrekvens,reflexer/retbarhet, muskeltonus och andning. Koncentrationen i blodet av olika gaser, syror och baser speglar också det nyföddAcid-base status in umbilical cord blood is an objective measure of the fetus’ exposure to and ability to handle hypoxia. The objective of this thesis was to clarify some of the methodological pitfalls in interpreting umbilical cord blood gases and lactate values at birth. Study I pinpoints the methodological confounding in calculating base deficit (BD) with algorithms used in different brands of

The article investigates conceptions of freemasonry and civil society in the eighteenth century periodical Journal für Freymaurer (1784-1786).

The book gathers a number of articles devoted to new approaches towards research into freemasonry as a socio-cultural phenomenon in British society.

The dynamics of the excited states of the carotenoid peridinin in polar solvents were studied using femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy in the spectral range of 500-1900 nm. A broadening of the absorption spectrum in polar solvents is caused by a distribution of conformers having different ground-state properties. In addition, the dependence of the peridinin lifetime on the excitation wa

Structural and electronic properties of TiO2 nanoparticles sensitized with a set of RuII(tpy)(2) based dyes have been investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with time-dependent (TD) DFT calculations. The effects of carboxylic and phosphonic acid anchor groups, as well as a phenylene spacer group, on the optical properties of the dyes and the electronic interaction

This paper presents one approach to the absorption and scattering of light from aggregates of primary particles. The primary particles are sphere like and small compared to the wavelength, whereas the aggregate can be large compared to the wavelength. This situation applies to when soot particles formed in flames are measured using methods based on laser light. The method presented in this work, c

Public sector organisations and voluntary sector organisations represent different organisational archetypes. All the same, they share two fundamental characteristics. However, in practice interaction seems to be coupled with several problems but the organisations favour interaction as a way of attaining mutual benefits. The aim of this paper is to introduce some hypotheses on factors that influen

We will present results from a recently completed research project financed by BFUF (the R&D Fund of the Swedish Tourism & Hospitality Industry). We have explored German tourists and how they search for tourist information at home and while travelling in Sweden. The overall aim was to understand how tourists’ information search behaviour affects the choice of attractions. The project has b

How do you attract visitors to your city? How do you manage to be visible in the information flow for potential visitors? Urban Destination Marketing Organisations (DMO) operate in a fast changing environment with ongoing challenges to face. Digitalisation is one of the issues that DMOs have to handle. As a result, we can see that many tourism offices are closed down in Sweden. However, has new te
