In Swedish today, du (‘you’) is sometimes used with generic reference. This use of generic du is often claimed to be a new invention, triggered by English influence in the late 20th century. However, in this article an analysis of occurrences of du from the period 1225–2013 is presented that demonstrates that generic du was used even as early as the Old Swedish period (1225–1526), i.e. long beforeIn Swedish today, du (‘you’) is sometimes used with generic reference.

This bachelor's thesis examines how The Hunger Games trilogy can be interpreted as an example of achieving justice through participatory processes. The aim is to analyze, from a process theological perspective, how the protagonist Katniss Everdeen actively contributes to the liberating process through her actions. The analysis utilizes Catherine Keller's and Sallie McFague's process th

This master’s thesis describes methods of calculating deformations of large astronomical telescope mirrors caused by the mirror support system. In the first part of the report these calculation methods are derived, along with methods of optimizing a support system pattern. Both analytical and numerical methods are described in the case of deformation analysis, and methods based on probabilistic me

This essay investigates if NATO’s humanitarian intervention in Kosovo 1999 can be justified. To answer this question we use values like sovereignty, nonintervention, human rights and perspectives that are essential to the question. The perspectives used are two normative ethical perspectives and the Just War theory, which has some criteria’s for going to war and how war should be conducted. By usi

The Partition of India and Pakistan in 1947 divided the western Himalayan region of Baltistan in two parts. Being subject to internal colonization and nation-making by the two postcolonial nation-states, the Balti community, like many other communities in the Himalayan region, has recently voiced demands of self-rule and experienced a cultural revival. The situation in Baltistan is here seen throu

At the forefront of the fourth industrial revolution, technologies such as digital twin seek to shift the way industrial companies operate. A digital twin is a virtual replica of a product, system or process. Historically, the focus has been on representing single objects but it is now shifting to interconnected processes, such as supply chains. Advanced versions of a supply chain digital twin can

In 1736 Samuel Hesselius, former pastor for the Swedish parishes in Pennsylvania, donated a collection of ‘American curiosities’ to Lund University in Sweden. Within less than twenty years, however, the collection had apparently disappeared.

The aim of this study is to broaden the knowledge about the correlation between proportional electoral systems and economic equality developed by earlier research. The study has identified a case of interest in New Zealand due to its electoral reform from a majoritarian first-past-the-post system to a system of mixed member proportional representation in 1996. This case gives the opportunity to no

Drawing on modelling of age at death in skeletal remains, this article unveils hitherto unrecognized demographic patterns in the Nordic Corded Ware complex. This population formed part of the European Corded Ware complex that has been linked to disruption observed in the archaeological and genetic record. The newly developed methods of transition analysis 3 (TA3) and death rate ratio (DRR) were us

The article explores the Norwegian ‘national ballad’ Draumkvæde (the Dream Song) in Maren Ramskeid’s version. This work has traditionally been interpreted as a folklore adaptation of medieval visionary literature such as the Vision of Tundale, related to Dante Alighieri’s Divine Comedy. The ballad, however, lacks demons and devils and infernal torture – it is even almost completely devoid of humanThe article explores the Norwegian ‘national ballad’ Draumkvæde (the Dream Song) in Maren Ramskeid’s version.

Since the 1980s, financial deregulation and welfare cuts have driven an economic risk shift, requiring individuals to take greater financial responsibility through private savings in stocks and mutual funds. An unexplored aspect of this “financialization of everyday life” is the personal finance advice provided by experts employed by banks and other market-oriented actors. This study examines fina

Bacterial proteins that bind to the Fc part of IgG have found widespread use in immunology. A similar protein suitable for the isolation and detection of human IgA has not been described. Here, we show that a 50-residue synthetic peptide, designated streptococcal IgA-binding peptide (Sap) and derived from a streptococcal M protein, can be used for single-step affinity purification of human IgA. Hi

Japan have for a long time tried to make the country more equal and the prime minister of Japan Shinzo Abe said year 2014 that “now it is the women’s time to shine in Japan”. Womenomics was created with gender equality goals to be reach until 2020 but so far, the equality changes in Japan has been slow. Japan rank low in the world when it comes to gender equality while other countries are catching
