In this critical idea-analysis of the relation between Sweden and the Nordic Council the author sifts out two construcions of identity and tests if there is a discrepancy to be found between what the member state grows within its borders and also sign by being a part of the nordic cooperation. In this study the analysis dive into the origins of scandinavism and nordism and discover touching points
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.

This study investigates patterns of seasonal variation in hours worked by women employed in home-based industrial production in Sweden in the early 20th century. Previous studies often describe workers in this type of production as the most flexible segment of industrial workers, and highly dependent on seasonal fluctuations in supply and demand. However, few have studied this empirically.

A recent body of empirical studies has given us a reason to expect that an influx of low-skilled workers can increase high skilled female market labour supply. Most of these studies, however, have focused on developed countries and on investigating the impact as it pertains to immigration. Believing that this same effect might hold in the case of internal migration, in this study, I employ a shift-s
From 1953-1963 Nyasaland was a part of the Central African Federation, along with Northern and Southern Rhodesia. The establishment of the Federation was hugely unpopular in Nyasaland due to fears it would be dominated by the white settler community in Southern Rhodesia. Supporters of the Federation, in the UK and Southern Rhodesia, argued that Nyasaland would gain financially from inclusion in th
Uppskattningsvis ligger idag mellan 2,5 till 20 miljoner ton olja i vrak runt världens kuster. Under tusentals år har den kommersiella sjöfarten dominerat haven. Det var dock inte förrän industrialiseringen på 1800-talet som olja började användas i allt större utsträckning. I den kommersiella sjöfarten är frakt av miljöfarliga ämnen inte något ovanligt, varje dag skeppas cirka en halv miljon ton oCurrently, between 2,5 and 20 million tons of oil are found in shipwrecks around the world. For thousands of years, commercial sea transport has dominated the seas. However, it was not until the industrial revolution in the 19th century that oil started being used extensively. Within commercial sea transport, the shipping of environmentally hazardous substances is not uncommon. About half a millio
Comprehending the East Asian Miracle has been a subject of heated major debate topic in development economics. And Korea was recognized as having one of the most pro-active state interventions in industrial policy and the debate on the performance of industrial policy has not been settled yet. This paper discusses the political economy of industrial policy over decades and the changes in conventio
Welcome to participate in the European Researchers’ Nights’ new national digital platform, Borrow a researcher. To enable schools all over Sweden to borrow a researcher, a national digital booking platform is being developed in 2021. Invitations are channelled through the VA (Public & Science) members’ network, European Researchers’ Night collaboration partners, local organisers, trade organisatio
Majoritarian electoral systems are associated with lower levels of redistribution, but there is no consensus on the working mechanisms behind this. This thesis aims to provide a new explanation. We connect research on elections and individual policy preferences and develop a theory in which low levels of redistribution is explained by large shares of high income groups in the legislature in majori

When time changes, new conditions set the opportunities for the city to grow. We can remember what has been through simple means, capture what has distinguish the place before and develop to something that conform today’s needs. It can be areas that haven’t been open for public in many years and has been left as gaps in the urban fabric. This is a study in re-purposing such a place, an area with t
Delegating tasks from a human to a robot needs an efficient and easy-to-use communication pipeline between them - especially when inexperienced users are involved. This work presents a robotic system that is able to bridge this communication gap by exploiting 3D sensing for gesture recognition and real-time object segmentation.

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture is crucial to reach global and regional climate targets. However, the efficiency of unilateral climate policies aimed at taxing emissions might be hampered by carbon leakage. One way to eliminate leakage is to implement a global carbon tax. In this article, we study the effects of a carbon tax in agriculture on GHG emissions by simulating five polReducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture is crucial to reach global and regional climate targets.

Abstract in Undetermined Acoustic phonons are studied in finite nanowires based on the elastic continuum model. The phonon dispersion relations are compared for different types of approximations both for pure nanowires and nanowire heterostructures including cubic and wurtzite materials. We find that the isotropic approximation highly underestimates the frequency of torsional modes. The impact of
Popular Abstract in Swedish Byggbranschen står inför stora utmaningar i att möta behovet av nya bostäder samtidigt som renoveringsbehovet av flerbostadshus är stort. Man beskylls ofta för bristande kvalitet och höga kostnader. Industriellt byggande har framförts som en lösning till problemen. I ett projekt på Lunds Universitet har två tillämpningar för industriellt byggande studerats: trähusbygganIndustrialized construction has over the years taken different expressions and gone through different phases depending on where inspiration has come from. In this project, industrialized construction has been studied in two applications: timber house manufacturing and renovation of multi-family houses. In Sweden industrialized production of timber houses is relatively strong in the housing sector
This thesis provides the first empirical analysis of the electric vehicle ownership gap between vehicle owners living in apartments and those living in houses. Using 2018 survey data collected by RISE Viktoria on Swedish vehicle owners, this study uses regression techniques to quantify the extent to which occupants of apartments adopt electric vehicles at a lower rate compared to occupants of hous
Beyond curiosity and wonder—understanding the Museum Stobaeanum Museum Stobaeanum was the first public museum in Lund. Established in the early 18th century, it has its roots in the cabinet of curiosities of Kilian Stobaeus (1690–1742), professor in natural philosophy and history at Lund University. In 1735, Stobaeus donated his collections to Lund University. The earliest preserved inventories fr
