Den 1 juli 2018 trädde det som brukar kallas för samtyckeslagen ikraft i Sve-rige. Sexualbrotten våldtäkt och sexuellt övergrepp är därmed numera kon-struerade med frivillighet som grundrekvisit. Skyddsintressena för lagstift-ningen är den enskildes sexuella självbestämmande och sexuella integritet. I 6 kap. 1 § brottsbalken stadgas att den som med en person som inte deltar frivilligt, genomför eIn 2018 Sweden passed a new sexual offence legislation based on consent. The new law came in effect on 1 July. Due to the new law, the lack of consent is now enough to constitute a sexual offence. The sexual offences affected by the new law are rape, 6 kap. 1 § brottsbalken, and sexual abuse 6 kap. 2 § brottsbalken. The interests protected by the sexual offence legislation are the right to self-de

This study investigates The National Gallery of Denmark (SMK) and how its’ own pronounced aim to be open accessible “to everyone” is functioning in their everyday praxis. Through a walking phenomenological reportage-analysis (inspired by Michel De Certeau) in the exhibition room of the museums’ latest special exhibiton “Goldenage – World Class Art Between Two Catastrophes”, it is discovered how th

Ur FN:s Barnkonvention följer principen om att det som anses vara barnets bästa måste vara avgörande vid alla beslut som rör barn. Konventionen blev svensk lag 1 januari 2020, men har varit en del av svensk rätt längre än så. Sverige ratificerade barnkonventionen år 1990 och sedan dess har principen successivt inkorporerats i svensk lagstiftning. Principen är bland annat en viktig del av skyddslagArticle 3 in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child says that what’s considered to be the best interests of the child must be decisive in all decisions concerning children. The Convention became Swedish law on 1 January 2020, but has been part of Swedish law for longer than that. Sweden ratified the Children's Convention in 1990 and since then, the principle has been gradually incorporat

According to the humanitarian principle of impartiality, decisions on what to fund in humanitarian crises should be based on a clear identification and prioritization of need. However, both the donors and responders have been reported to not act solely based on the needs. Previous studies indicate that skepticism around the quality of humanitarian needs assessments, especially in Flash Appeal docu

Abstract Objective: To identify and analyse literature on the effects of competitive foods in public schools on adolescent weight (BMI), and possible impacts they may have on adolescent obesity in the United States. Methods: An integrative systematic review of literature was conducted. The literature was collected in CINAHL, Medline and EMBASE databases. Refined keyword search is further detaile

Production of urban space is an indispensable component of capitalism. Without production of urban space, capitalism cannot sustain capital accumulation and cope with over-accumulation crises. However, as environmental consciousness grows, urban development projects are increasingly exposed to green pressures and demands because of their associated eco-climatic impacts. One possible way for capita

We report here the complete genome sequence and characterization of Yersinia bacteriophage vB_YenP_ϕ80-18. ϕ80-18 was isolated in 1991 using a Y. enterocolitica serotype O:8 strain 8081 as a host from a sewage sample in Turku, Finland, and based on its morphological and genomic features is classified as a podovirus. The genome is 42 kb in size and has 325 bp direct terminal repeats characteristic

Background: Defining the origin of genetic novelty is central to our understanding of the evolution of novel traits. Diversification among fatty acid desaturase (FAD) genes has played a fundamental role in the introduction of structural variation in fatty acyl derivatives. Because of its central role in generating diversity in insect semiochemicals, the FAD gene family has become a model to study

Background: Bilberries from Sweden, rich in polyphenols, have shown cholesterol-lowering effects in small studies, and the cholesterol-lowering properties of oats, with abundant beta-glucans and potentially bioactive phytochemicals, are well established. Both may provide cardiometabolic benefits following acute myocardial infarction (AMI), but large studies of adequate statistical power and approp

Conjugation with poly(ethylene glycol) ("PEGylation") is a widely used approach for improving the therapeutic propensities of peptide and protein drugs through prolonging bloodstream circulation, reducing toxicity and immunogenicity, and improving proteolytic stability. In the present study, we investigate how PEGylation affects the interaction of host defense peptides (HDPs) with bacterial lipopo

Background: Pneumococcal vaccination is recommended to patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS). However, little is known whether the diseases influence pneumococcal vaccine response. This study aimed to investigate antibody response and functionality of antibodies following immunization with 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) in RA patients or pSS

Retail and cities have had a long and intertwined history together. Since the beginning of first cities established, being a hub for commercial exchange has been one of the main elements what makes a city (Söderlind, 2011). Nevertheless, since 1980s, there have been some substantial shifts at the global scale regarding the organization of retail, and in turn, its spatial manifestations in the citi

AbstractModern medicine and health care rely on a variety of diagnostic and therapeutic equipment and methods that involve ionizing radiation. To guarantee quality and the safety of patients and staff, advanced radiation detectors and dosemeters are needed that have low energy and operate with directional independence for X-ray and γ-ray photons. Similar instruments are also of great importance fo

BACKGROUND: Several studies have sought to investigate gambling craving and its potential contribution to gambling problems. One aim of this line of research has been to further examine whether craving should be considered a separate diagnostic criterion for gambling disorder, which it currently is not. The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between craving and other risk factors—

The present study was undertaken to investigate the possible effects of Spantide [D-Arg1, D-Trp7,9 Leu11]-substance P, a substance P antagonist, and of somatostatin on spinal cord blood flow. The experiments were performed with the laser-doppler technique on the L1 spinal cord segment exposed by laminectomy. The effect of Spantide was also studied in the rat with the [14C]iodoantipyrine technique.

This thesis examines the creative appropriation of Shakespeare in theory and practice. It is based on close readings of King Lear alongside three appropriations of the play in works of fiction by three North American women writers: Jane Smiley, Anne Tyler, and Margaret Atwood. The aim is to demonstrate how a ‘palimpsestic’ reading, i.e. a reading in which the reader oscillates between ‘pre-text’ a

Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur lever man ett avskilt liv i dagens moderna värld? Kan man bevara en distinkt religiös och kulturell identitet i en omgivning som propagerar för pluralism och öppenhet? Integritet och avskildhet från det omgivande samhället är viktiga inslag i charedims (ultraortodoxa judars) kulturella identitet. Att argumentera för dessa värden är lätt, att praktiskt konkretisera The dissertation focuses on the Haredi (ultra-orthodox Jewish) journal The Jewish Observer, published since 1963 by Agudath Israel of America, suggesting that the publisher uses the journal as an instrument to help the readers to maintain a distinct Haredi identity in urban, non-Haredi environments and not only in their own, isolated milieu. The articles of the journal are understood as resources,

The subject who understood. The Swedish Reformation discourse and the early modern process of integration The thesis concerns why it in the discourse of the Reformation was so important to repeat statements about the need for Christendom to go back to its true heritage and that the sermon should be understood by everyone, and the statements consequences for the possibility of formulating order, co
