In a globalized world, with ever-increasing interdependency and interconnectedness, it is often argued that political and ethical boundaries will gradually lose their significance. A cosmopolitan world order will eventually emerge, a process we, arguably, should help to bring about. However, in this paper, mainly from a communitarian perspective, I problematize this conception. The way towards thi
This study has examined how the right edge of a discourse topic is signaled through the use of F0, duration, and particles in the two Aslian languages Jahai and Mah Meri. The goals of this study were to contribute to the knowledge of these languages, compare them to the related Kammu language in the search for similarities that could be applied to Austroasiatic as a whole, and to explore what kind
Background and the Situation at Company X To remain competitive, it is essential for companies to take advantage of new business opportunities. However, seizing new opportunities often imply changes within the organization, and projects associated with change are bound to encounter resistance. To efficiently manage change and thereby avoid resistance and engage in measures that generate support fo
Den svenska regeringen stadgade i juli 2010 en lag angående möjligheten för ett moderbolag att dra av en slutlig förlust hos ett utländskt dotterbolag från moderbolagets beskattningsbara vinst. Detta lagförslag är ett resultat av Regeringsrättens domar från 2009, som i sin tur tolkar den europeiska domstolens domar, närmare bestämt Marks & Spencer och Oy AA. Lagförslaget stämmer, enligt min meThe Swedish government has in July 2010 incorporated a legislation regarding the possibility to deduct a loss incurred by a non-resident subsidiary, from the parent company’s taxable income. This Law is based on the Swedish administrative court’s interpretation of the European Union Court’s judgement of the Marks & Spencer case and the Oy AA case. The law is in my opinion not completely compat
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Geologisk bakgrund. För ca 200 miljoner år sedan, vid gränsen mellan tidsperioderna Trias och Jura, var Sverige en del av superkontinenten Pangea. Skåne låg vid kusten av ett större hav som täckte stora delar av Danmark. Klimatet var varmt och fuktigt och detta bidrog i hög grad till att de mer höglänta områdena i nordost vittrade och eroderades. Floder och andA palynological study has been conducted on Late Triassic and Early Jurassic outcrop- and borehole sections of the Höganäs and Rya formations, NW Scania. The diverse and generally well preserved palynomorph assemblages can be divided into three miospore zones: (1) the latest Rhaetian-?Hettangian Transitional interval; (2) the Hettangian Pinuspollenites-Trachysporites Zone; and (3) the Sinemurian C
The sub-Saharan African region is often considered the most corrupt in the world and has been characterised by macroeconomic instability; several countries have experienced out of control inflation in recent years. Corruption, defined as the abuse of public power for private gain discourages enterprise and investment, and encourages capital flight and rent-seeking; all of which increase the diffic
This thesis is a critical discourse analysis of ten articles from three Swedish newspapers about the 2011 revolution in Egypt. The purpose of the study is to see if any postcolonial discourses can be found in the reporting and, if so, how we can understand the consequences of these for the way we think about people’s identities and about the future of Egypt. In the thesis’ analysis three postcolo
Sarcomas are relatively rare malignancies and include a large number of histological subgroups. Based on morphology alone, the differential diagnoses of sarcoma subtypes can be challenging, but the identification of specific fusion genes aids correct diagnostication. The presence of individual fusion products are routinely investigated in Pathology labs. However, the methods used are time-consumin
The three works analyzed here were published at the culmination of Swedish romanticism. The strange mixture of the high and the low, the sacred and the profane that is typical for them has been an interesting challenge for literary scholars. For instance, in older research one sometimes spoke of poor handwork, or bad taste of the writers or it was explained that these works were a stage between th
A phenomenological model for explaining the magnetic properties of MnAs nanocrystals embedded in GaAs is proposed. It is shown that experimental data of DC magnetization as a function of temperature, obtained according to zero-field-cooled and field-cooled protocols, can be understood assuming a transition of the system from a low temperature state in which very slow dynamics is observed(frozen st
High-multiplicity proton-proton collisions at the LHC may exhibit collective phenomena such as elliptic flow. We study this issue using DIPSY, a brand-new Monte Carlo event generator which features almost-NLO BFKL dynamics and describes the transverse shape of the proton including all fluctuations. We predict the eccentricity of the collision as a function of the multiplicity and estimate the magn
Molecular LiCl and Li2Cl2 have been studied in the vapor phase with valence photoelectron and photoelectron-photoion coincidence spectroscopies. These two techniques determine the binding energies in fundamentally different ways. Binding energies obtained from photoelectron spectra are usually taken as the vertical ionization energies of the corresponding electronic states. In cases with several o
Formation of meta-stable surface-alloys can be used as a way to tune the binding strength of reaction intermediates and could therefore be used as improved catalyst materials for heterogeneous catalysis. Understanding the role of adsorbates on such alloy surfaces can provide new insights for engineering of more active or selective catalyst materials. Dynamical surface changes on alloy surfaces due
The complement system is fundamental to both innate and adaptive immunity and can be initiated via the classical, lectin or alternative pathways. Cleavage of C4 by MASP-2, the initiating protease of the lectin pathway, is a crucial event in the activation of this pathway, preceding the eventual formation of the C3 convertase (C4bC2a) complex on the pathogen surface. Interactions required for the c
Manufacturing corporations sometimes use corporate-internal procedures to evaluate and monitor the ergonomic status of the workplace. This article describes an industrial case study in the Swedish automotive sector, where an internally developed evaluation procedure was compared with a procedure based on a Swedish national standard provision. It was found that the national standard procedure tende
Introduction: Although Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is associated with early death, its life expectancy differs greatly between patients. A better understanding of this heterogeneity may reveal important disease mechanisms underlying the malignancy of AD. The aim of this study was to examine the relation between AD pathologies and early death in AD caused by dementia. Methods: At a memory clinic, 247
Coal gasification-based polygeneration (CGP) technology provides an opportunity for China to help to solve the main challenges it is facing in energy sector. On one hand, it can greatly mitigate the conflict of energy demand and supply in China, by generating electricity and co-producing liquid fuel without China's becoming overly dependent on imports, on the other hand, it can dramatically de
