In April, 2019, the author discovered that Archbishop Erling Eidem’s sermons and speeches, since 1966/1978, have been kept in the University library of Uppsala. This has been overlooked by all authors earlier dealing with Eidem, only using shortened summaries. In Lützen, on November 6, 1942, Eidem stated that »our Gustavus-Adolphuscelebration may not be characterized by national self-sufficiency a

For several decades, a whole range of critical approaches emphasizing networks, flows and mobility have gained ground in social theory and slowly made its way into governmental practice. In few fields of study has the epistemological shift been as marked in both theory and practice as urban studies in general, and those interested in public space in particular. From Jane Jacobs ‘ballet’ of the str

Projekt Turnstone är ett samverkansprojekt delvis finansierat av Europeiska kommissionen. Projektet är ett initiativ av Stockholmspolisens gränsbevakningsenhet. Syftet med Projekt Turnstone är att minska gränsöverskridande brottslighet, förbättra dagligt samarbete mellan gräns, polis och kustbevakare i Östersjöregionen och förbättra säkerheten för passagerare i Östersjöregionen utan att göra avkalProject Turnstone is a collaborative project funded in part by the European Commission. The project is an initiative by the Stockholm Police. The purpose of the project is to improve day-to-day cooperation between border officers in the Baltic Sea region, decrease trans-boundary criminality, and increase security for passengers in the Baltic Sea area without compromising freedom of movement.

This thesis investigates the political-economic context that underlies the Korean Emissions Trading Scheme (KETS). The idea of trading carbon as a commodity in the carbon market has been embraced by many regions to reduce carbon emissions and to mitigate climate change. The government of South Korea has started to implement the emissions trading mechanism since 2015 to curtail the national greenho

The United States and the European Union operate under the similar design of a federal structure and their labor markets face similar tax discrimination challenges. Case law illustrates how the goal of a common market present in both unions is highly influential on the respective Courts and provides a flexible structure to protect individuals against discriminatory tax legislation. It is the centr

Modern society depends on dams for renewable hydropower, water supply, and flood control. As climate change increases the frequency of extreme rainfall and flood events, and as the demand for renewable energy sources continues to grow, ensuring the safety of these critical structures becomes more urgent than ever. One of the most serious hidden threats in embankment dams is internal erosion – a sl

Mixed findings have been made with regard to the long-term predictive validity of antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) on criminal behaviour in samples of substance abusers. A longitudinal record-linkage study of a cohort of 1052 drug abusers admitted 1977-1995 was undertaken. Subjects were recruited from a detoxification and short-term rehabilitation unit in Lund, Sweden, and followed through c

In my paper I have emanated from the question when a refusal to deal by an undertaking in a dominant position constitutes an abuse according to article 82 EC Treaty. Article 82 of The Consolidated version of the Treaty establishing the European Community, signed in Rome 1957, incorporating the changes made by the Treaty of Amsterdam on 2 October 1997, OJ 1997 C340, pp. 173-308, hereafter referred

Statkraft is Europe’s largest renewable energy company, operating in 23 countries, and employs more than 3000 staff. The company generates and develops renewable energy in a broad range, hydropower, gas power, wind power, district heating and is one of the major players on the European power exchange Nord Pool. This thesis will primarily focus on assessing Statkraft’s potential and strategic compe

Obalansen mellan könen inom forskningen anses vara ett problem av många skäl, inte minst för att kvinnors talang inom forskning inte utnyttjas fullt ut. Den politiska styrningen har de senaste decennierna därför riktats mot att öka andelen kvinnliga professorer genom könsbalansmål för befordringar. Det finns goda skäl att tro att vad som händer i början av den akademiska karriären spelar roll för

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of evidence-informed priority setting and situational analysis in pandemic preparedness and response. Health Technology Assessment (HTA) has been identified as an essential tool for evidence-informed decision-making in healthcare. However, the potential role of HTA in pandemic preparedness and response in Africa has yet to be explore

The neutral protease cathepsin G belongs to a family of hematopoietic serine proteases stored in the azurophil granules of the neutrophil granulocyte. To investigate the function of asparagine-linked carbohydrates in neutrophil serine proteases, we constructed a mutant cDNA, coding for human cathepsin G deficient of a functional glycosylation site, for use in a transgenic cellular model. Wild type

Objectives: To assess the antiviral effect, clinical outcomes, and safety of the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion inhibitor rilematovir in non-hospitalized RSV-infected adults. Methods: This phase 2a, double-blind, multicentre study randomly assigned RSV-positive adult outpatients ≤5 days from symptom onset 1:1:1 to receive rilematovir 500 mg, 80 mg, or placebo once-daily for 7 days. Antiv

Aeromonas species are known to be involved in human gastrointestinal diseases. These organisms colonize the gastrointestinal tract. Aeromonas hydrophila, A. caviae, and A. sobria have been demonstrated microscopically to adhere to animal cell lines that express mucous receptors, but quantitative studies of adherence to mucosal components such as mucin have not been published to date. Purified bovi

As almost three out of four EU citizens live in urban areas and this number is expected to further grow, studies on urban ecosystems and their services are crucial to understand a city’s environmental structure and capabilities. The European Commission has published a relative report which suggests an urban ecosystem condition indicator framework, yet without suggesting respective thresholds tha
