En ny europeisk studie granskar hur allmänheten i sex länder ser på organtransplantationer och postnatala genetiska test. Det rör sig om Cypern, Österrike, Tyskland, Frankrike och Sverige. I undersökningen framkommer att de tillfrågade personernas funderingar följer två övergripande spår: Här finns å ena sidan tankar om den medicinska utvecklingens potential, å andra sidan reflektioner rörande desRecent developments in the field of biomedicine do not only constitute a challenge for the health care systems of modern societies. They also have a profound impact on the core concepts of individual and collective life. The corresponding changes of individual and collective identities take place within the framework of different historically shaped national conditions and traditions. This leads t

In Sweden, urban planners are legally obligated to design neighbourhoods that allow future buildings to meet daylight requirements. However, this is challenging because planners can only define the building masses, without control over future building details such as glazing ratios, room layouts, and orientation.The Vertical Sky Component (VSC) is a well-established indicator for early daylight as

Both Hungary and Poland have been in the spotlight regarding their democratic backsliding, with Executives exerting control over supposedly independent pillars of democracy, such as courts or the media. While the concerns about these countries also voiced by leaders of European institutions were similar, the resistance against the systematic erosion of judicial independence comes in different form

This book examines Religious Education (RE) in over ten countries, including Australia, Indonesia, Mali, Russia, UK, Ireland, USA, and Canada. Investigating RE from a global and multi-interdisciplinary perspective, it presents research on the diverse past, present, and possible future forms of RE. In doing so, it enhances public and professional understanding of the complex issues and debates surr

One of the larger changes in society that affected individual’s lives during the 20th century is the increase in divorce rates that happened in almost all industrialized countries. It went from being an uncommon feature reserved for the rich to a prominent part of family-life. The increase occurred against the backdrop of economic growth and the industrialization. This study constructs a data set

This study presents the main features of the Swedish approach for resolving the banking crisis of 1991-93 by condensing them into seven policy lessons. These concern (1) the importance of political unity behind the resolution policy, (2) a government blanket guarantee of the financial obligations of the banking system, (3) swift policy action where acting early was more important than acting in ex

Drawing on the IR theories of norm translation and strategic narratives, this article focuses on how states translate international norms to their own advantage by producing strategic narratives to advance their soft power ambitions abroad. Using the example of Feminist Foreign Policy (FFP), the article compares Sweden, Canada, France, and Mexico in their attempts to translate international femini

Hip prosthetic loosening is often difficult to detect at an early stage, and there has been uncertainty for a long time as to when the loosening occurs and thus to the basic causes. By comparing different diagnostic methods, we found that loosening is best defined as prosthetic migration and measured by radiostereometric analysis. Convincing evidence indicates that poor interlock, poor bone qualit

Pharmaceutical companies regularly fund patient organisations. It is important for patient organisations’ credibility that there should be transparency regarding this financial support. In Europe, the pharmaceutical industry promises to deliver transparency through self-regulation, as opposed to legally binding provisions, but self-regulation’s effectiveness is contested. We compared the industry’

The End of History was the title of Francis Fukuyama’s book (Fukuyama 1992), suggesting that with the demise of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe after the Berlin Wall, the consequence was that The Market had come out victorious after the Cold War, and now there was only one way ahead, and the savior capitalism would relentlessly lead to democracy. Now we know that this is not the c

Across the world, economic interests and state-making interventions have converged to dispossess small-scale farmers, rural and urban dwellers – often through violent means. Situated in the sugarcane plantation landscape in the Cauca Valley in western Colombia, this dissertation explores how life is lived after dispossession. The research is based on ethnographic fieldwork in the Afro-descendant v

Background: A long-term prospective observational safety study is essential to characterize fully the safety profile of systemic immunomodulating therapies for patients with atopic eczema. The TREatment of ATopic eczema (TREAT) Registry Taskforce offers a large platform to conduct such research using national registries that collect the same data using a predefined core dataset. Objectives: To pre

The medial temporal lobe (MTL) is connected to the rest of the brain through two main networks: the anterior-temporal (AT) and the posterior-medial (PM) systems. Given the crucial role of the MTL and networks in the physiopathology of Alzheimer's disease (AD), the present study aimed at (1) investigating whether MTL atrophy propagates specifically within the AT and PM networks, and (2) evaluating

The traditional engineering approach to manage urban drainage is by combined or separated sewers. In urban catchments, drainage systems may include different types of storage and detention facilities to avoid flooding from heavy rainfall. However, during recent decades, alternative ways to manage floods have evolved since traditional methods often harm the riverine ecosystems by pollution and eros

The idea of facilitating labour mobility for refugees as a pathway for admission is back on the policy agenda. Such complementary pathways are promoted in the Global Compact for Refugees as means to facilitate access to protection and solutions in addition to resettlement, and praised by United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees as directly contributing to easing pressure on host countries by
