The intention of this study was to inquiry how the social workers at the social service offices in Helsingborg perceive the homeless and their situation, and what kind of aid and support the homeless are getting so they can change their situation. We have also examined how the homeless describe their own situation and how they experience the treatment and the help they get from the social workers.

This thesis examines how Kukama women in the Peruvian Amazon have mobilized against oil extraction along the Marañón River and how the recognition of the river’s rights can be understood within Peru’s historical and contemporary context of neo-extractivism. Using Feminist Political Ecology as an analytical framework, the study analyzes documents related to the rights-of-nature lawsuit led by Huayn

Industrial organizations rely, to an increasing extent, on intangible resources such as the knowledge and competence of highly skilled workers. This makes them successively similar to organizations closely associated with highly skilled workers, such as professional service firms. But many industrial organizations also share another characteristic with professional service firms, that of customizi

Popular Abstract in English Climate migration has become an iconic topic in international climate politics and policy. This work, combining political ecology, critical security studies and post-foundational theories, traces the changes of conflicting discourses across time and space, and assesses the different forms of security they interpellate. While initially attracting attention as a securityThis work seeks to de-naturalise climate-induced migration (CM). Combining political ecology and post-foundational theories, I read CM as a construct that reifies a series of phenomena into an issue to be researched and governed. By assessing the narratives, the knowledge, the logics and imaginaries on which conflicting discourses are built, I analyse the strategies of government they envision. I

We describe and compare how methods based on the classicalRice’s formula for the expected number, and higher moments, of level crossingsby a Gaussian process stand up to contemporary numerical methods toaccurately deal with crossing related characteristics of the sample paths.We illustrate the relative merits in accuracy and computing time of the Ricemoment methods and the exact numerical method, We describe and compare how methods based on the classical Rice’s formula for the expected number, and higher moments, of level crossings by a Gaussian process stand up to contemporary numerical methods to accurately deal with crossing related characteristics of the sample paths.We illustrate the relative merits in accuracy and computing time of the Rice moment methods and the exact numerical meth

A hybrid catalyst consisting of Zr-doped mesoporous silica (Zr-SBA-15) supports with intergrown Cu nanoparticles was used to study the effects of a catalyst’s chemical states on CO2 hydrogenation. The chemical state of the catalyst was altered by using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) or sodium metasilicate (SMS) as the silica precursor in the synthesis of the Zr-SBA-15 framework, and infiltration A hybrid catalyst consisting of Zr-doped mesoporous silica (Zr-SBA-15) supports with intergrown Cu nanoparticles was used to study the effects of a catalyst’s chemical states on CO2 hydrogenation.

In this paper I ask how ethnology with a medical humanities perspective can use the term Anthropocene to better understand the emerging fact that we soon will stand without functional antibiotics.

Applying media analysis, this article addresses how the exclusion of Muslim women from fields of common public interest in Sweden, such as partaking as an active citizen, is materialized. Focusing on a specific event—the cancellation of a screening of Burka Songs 2.0—and the media coverage and representation of the cancellation, it discusses the role of discourses of gender equality, secularity an

Purpose: To address the systematic bias in whole-brain dual flip angle (DFA) T1-mapping at7T by optimizing the flip angle pair and carefully selecting RF pulse shape and duration.Theory and Methods: Spoiled gradient echoes can be used to estimate whole-brain maps ofT1. This can be accomplished by using only two acquisitions with different flip angles, i.e., aDFA-based approach.

The influence of grain boundaries on the mechanical properties of poly-crystalline metals is well known. Here we investigate the influence from a centrally placed grain boundary in nano-sized beams of Cu subjected to tensile loading. The crystallographic orientations in the grains are [100], [110] and [111]. The investigation is performed by means of molecular dynamic simulations employing the mol

Dilute solutions of the square-planar tetra-aqua complex pt(H2O)42+ have been prepared in a 1.00 M perchloric acid medium by addition of excess silver(I) perchlorate to potassium tetrachloroplatinate(II), equilibration at 70°C, filtration of the silver chloride precipitate, and subsequent separation of the excess silver from the solution by electrolysis.

Sustainable practices are increasingly promoted in the restaurant industry. One significant aspect of sustainability in restaurants is the use of local supply chains, especially for food, which also serve as a means for restaurants to promote freshness of produce, sourcing, and quality. Considering the prevalence of locality in menu marketing, this study aims to explore the relationships between s

Local flexibility markets (LFM) for electricity are in their early stages, and most research has focused on their design aspects and aggregators, while little attention has been paid to providers and potential providers of flexibility resources. The present research aims to fill this gap by analysing data from 25 in-depth interviews with enrolled and potential flexibility service providers of two

The article investigates the reception of Carl Snoilsky’s Svenska bilder (Swedish Pictures) in Swedish schools, from the 1890s until today, in the light of the concept of cultural memory. For more than half a century, Snoilsky’s cycle of poems, depicting important events and figures in Sweden’s early modern history, belonged to the literary school canon; three special school editions were publisheThe article investigates the reception of Carl Snoilsky’s Svenska bilder (Swedish Pictures) in Swedish schools, from the 1890s until today, in the light of the concept of cultural memory.
