During the last 30 years or more, the migration industry has been conceptualized in reference to activities –usually informal or illegal– of certain intermediaries who profit by providing services to migrants.The position taken in this article is that the increasing commercialization of international migration makes it necessary to conceptualize the migration industry more broadly and include both

The aim of this research is to analyze the cinematographic image of lesbianism in Spanish cinema by critically analyzing and evaluating full-length films produced in Spain from 1972 to 2005 starring lesbian characters. The analysis model that has been used was developed by J.C. Alfeo (1997) in his work about film representation of male homosexuality and it is based on S. Chatman (1990) and P. Hamm

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the functions of the word "tot" 'whole; each; all' in old and modern Romanian, by studying the syntax, morphology and semantics of this word as part of or in combination with a noun phrase (NP). An attempt is made to find out the status of "tot" in a classification of numerals, articles and adjectives. The present work consists of four separate studies (i.

Små luftvägar med inre diameter <2 mm utpekas som den viktigaste lokalen för inflammation och vävnadsomvandling vid folksjukdomarna KOL och astma. Eftersom de många små luftvägarnas sammanlagda bidrag till totala respiratoriska luftvägsmotståndet är relativt litet, upptäcks förändringarna här dessvärre först när sjukdomen nått avancerat stadium. Behovet av experimentella och kliniska metoder att s

Traditional analyses of 1 Cor 14:20–25 have not been able to solve the interpretational problems, especially the crux interpretum of v. 22b. Since the problem is one of argumentation it is natural to seek assistance from a method of argumentation analysis. By making use of the method by Stephen Toulmin, it can be shown that the argument may contain more information than is directly apparent. By re

The Swedish Mongol Mission (SMM) was an ecumenical union active mostly among Mongols in Outer and Inner Mongolia between 1897 and 1945. SMM were to establish five stations at the borders of the Gobi Desert from 1908 to 1944. The stations were Hallong Osso, Goltjaggan, Dojen, Hatt in Sum, situated in Inner Mongolia and Urga (in present Ulan Bator) situated in Outer Mongolia. In 1950 the activities

Träldom var en form av slaveri vilken fanns i Norden fram till 1300-talet. I Sverige minskade träldomen troligen i omfattning under 1200-talet och försvann helt i början av 1300-talet. Det är dock oklart hur länge träldomen har funnits i Sverige och hur utbredd den var före medeltiden på grund av bristen på källor. Träldom förbjöds i Västergötland och Värmlands lagsagor 1335 då Skarastadgan utfärdSlavery existed in the Nordic countries until the fourteenth century. There is some debate regarding how old it is and how common it was. However, it is generally regarded that slavery grew less common in Sweden during the thirteenth century and was abolished during the fourteenth century. Traces of slavery can be found in Swedish medieval laws, the so-called Landskapslagarna. Though nearly all of

I denna uppsats undersöks det norska Senterpartiet samt det svenska Centerpartiet. Uppsatsen utgår dels från antologin From farmyard to city square från 2001 och dels från Otto Kirchheimers teori om catch-all-partiet. Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka varför Senterpartiet har nått större valframgångar än Centerpartiet under de senaste valen, trots att partierna på många sätt är mycket lika. I up

Samarbetet mellan Sverige och Danmark återfinns inom många rättsområden och har gamla anor. Trots detta är det inte ett helt enkelt partnerskap, med två skilda rättsordningar som trots sina många likheter även innehåller betydande skillnader. Gränsöverskridande målsättningar, såsom en gemensam arbetsmarknad, faller platt när byråkratin inte följer samtiden, i detta fall när det kommer till socialfThe collaboration between Sweden and Denmark can be found in many legal areas and have a long-standing tradition. However, it is not without its flaws, given the two distinct legal systems that, despite their many similarities, also contain significant differences. Cross-border objectives, such as a common labor market, falter when bureaucracy fails to keep up with the times, as is the case with s
