This study has given insight to the phenomenon of collaborations between high fashion brands and streetwear brands within the fashion discourse. The study uses journalistic texts from popular online streetwear magazines as empirical material in order to perform a critical discourse analysis on the sub-discourses of high fashion and streetwear. By looking at this phenomenon through the lens of pers
We report on experimental branching fractions (BFs) for 19 transitions from the three 3d 5( 6S)4s4p( 3P) y6P levels in Fe II, measured in Fourier transform spectra of a Penning discharge lamp and a hollow cathode lamp. The transition wavelengths span the interval between 1600 and 2850 Å. Absolute oscillator strengths ( f-values) have been derived by combining the BFs with experimental radiative li
The objectives of this study were to describe a population of elderly patients at the beginning of their rehabilitation period as regards subjective well-being and dependence in activities of daily living (ADL). In a Swedish rural county 244 patients aged 65+ who had begun rehabilitation within the last month were targeted. One part of the self-administered Goteborg Quality of Life Instrument and
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur förhåller sig ekonomisk tillväxt och fördelning till varandra när en ekonomi genomgår en strukturomvandlingsprocess? Denna klassiska frågeställning utgör det centrala problemet för denna avhandling. När Simon Kuznets i mitten av 1950-talet tog sig an samma fråga fann han med begränsade data att ekonomisk tillväxt förmodligen ökar inkomstklyftorna under en inledande What are the effects of growth on equality in a long-term perspective? What are the effects of different patterns of equality on subsequent growth? And why are these questions relevant for the understanding of economic development? These are the overriding questions posed in the dissertation. They are addressed in the context of long-term change from economic backwardness to modern economic growth
Theoretical results are presented on the absorption and fluorescence of indole in aqueous solution as well as at the air/water surface. We use a combined quantum chemical statistical mechanical model with explicit solvent. An approximate ab initio complete active space self-consistent field description of the indole molecule is used, coupled to a discrete polarizable water medium. From the bulk si
Popular Abstract in Swedish Rättvisekriterier och andra etiska aspekter spelar en stor roll i svensk sjukvård. De ingår t ex i målformuleringen i hälso- och sjukvårdslagen ("Målet för hälso- och sjukvården är en god hälsa och en vård på lika villkor för hela befolkningen.", §2). Läkare och andra beslutsfattare påpekar regelbundet vikten av moraliska värderingar, och befolkningen i gemen torde delaEquality of access may be defined and operationalised in several ways. Paper I, 'Equality of access. Definitions and policy implications', proposes a theoretical outline of possible definitions of equal access, of the policy measures needed to attain equality and of their consequences. The health economic literature proposes two main definitions of equal access. Equal access prevails either when i
New basis sets of the atomic natural orbital (ANO) type have been developed for the atoms Li-Fr and Be-Ra. The ANOs have been obtained from the average density matrix of the ground states and the lowest excited states of the atom, the positive ion, and the dimer at its equilibirium geometry. Scalar realtivisitc effects are included through the use of a Douglas-Kroll Hamiltonian. Multiconfiguration
The aim with this thesis is to clarify the scope of the Schumacker doctrine and specifically to answer the questions "Which tax rules are considered to take into account the ability to pay?" and "What are the thresholds for determining when a non-resident is in a comparable situation to that of a resident?". The findings of the study are that such rules are difficult to ident
A society's greenhouse gas emissions are closely related to its volumes of consumption. Efficiency gains and changes in the consumption mix are important, but will not be enough to reach sustainable levels of consumption-based emission. This thesis examines the literature on degrowth and sufficient consumption levels to find out what the current knowledge and proposed policy strategies are. Un
Millenarianism has been the subject of vast historical scholarship and debate, where emphasis is often placed on its political, social and cultural manifestations. Drawing onthis research, this article focuses on the theological understandings of millenarianism throughout Christian history. After a brief discussion of the scriptural origins of the idea of a thousand-year reign, an overview will be

Recent evidence suggested a weak relationship between alcohol consumption and pancreatic cancer (PC) risk. In our study, the association between lifetime and baseline alcohol intakes and the risk of PC was evaluated, including the type of alcoholic beverages and potential interaction with smoking. Within the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study, 1,283 incident
This paper presents a discrete model of a sensor path planning problem, with a long-term planning horizon. The goal is to minimize the covariance of the reconstructed structures while meeting constraints on the length of the traversed path of the sensor. The sensor is restricted to move on a graph representing a discrete set of configurations, and additional constraints can be incorporated by alte
Within the international human right law scholarship and philosophy of human rights, there is no clear picture how human rights, old and new, emerge from the ground, from the small idea that a new human right is needed. There is no theory why and how human rights emerge, as well as there is no methodology how the idea could come through the process of development, then emerge as a human right in t
The purpose of this thesis is to study the changes that occurred within the far left and far right parties of the Nordic member states of the European Union, regarding their euroscepticism. The study aims towards both mapping out the changes of the parties political course as well as comparing the political standpoints between the countries. By comparing characteristics between existing literature
Purpose The aim of this research paper is to provide valuable insights to existing theoretical foundation of choice of capital structure, and exploring the relationship between capital structure and firm performance through testing whether capital structure affects firm performance in the USA listed healthcare and energy companies. Theoretical perspective The presented theories cover different vi
Abstract Background: Person-centered care is increasingly regarded as being synonymous with best quality care. However, the concept and its precise meaning is a subject of debate, and reliable and valid measurement tools are few. This study is a part of a larger project named KUPA who´s main aim is to improve palliative care and person centeredness for elders living in nursing homes in two souther
The following dissertation examines the relationship between the actual control of insurgent groups, FARC and AUC, in municipalities of Colombia and the subsequent performance of public services. By resorting to a novel semi-parametric, group-based-trajectory model, this paper manages to discern the de facto presence of such groups at the municipality level, which allows carrying out such examinat
For understanding undue politicization, Wilhelm Agrell and Gregory Treverton in their book National Intelligence and Science (2015) describe ‘Intelligence Modes of Science’ at work in also science’s policy-maker-analyst interface, while analytical social epistemology points at medialization as additional background. In this paper, securitization’s process is used as frame for exploring how IPCC’s,
