This article examines street art as a specific type of public art. With Patricia C. Phillips’ idea of the failing “public art machine” as a point of departure, it contextualises the discussion of public art as a phenomenon that goes beyond sanctioned artistic expressions. The article examines the characteristics of street art and demonstrates that street art and public artworks have a number of tr
AimsMyoepithelial tumours of soft tissue are rare lesions with a broad morphological and clinical spectrum. Previous studies have found EWSR1 rearrangements in approximately half of all cases and PBX1, ZNF44 and POU5F1 have been identified as recurrent fusion partners. In bone, only a small number of myoepithelial tumours have been described. We investigated an intraosseous myoepithelioma of the s
Built on up-to-date field material, this edited volume suggests an anthropological approach to the palimpsest-like milieus of Wrocław, Lviv, Chernivtsi, and Chişinău. In these East-Central European borderline cities, the legacies of Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, and violent ethno-nationalism have been revisited in recent decades in search of profound moral reckoning and in response to the challenges p
The exploitation of ultrafast electron dynamics in quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) holds enormous potential forintense, compact mode-locked terahertz (THz) sources, squeezed THz light, frequency mixers, and comb-basedmetrology systems. Yet the important sub-cycle dynamics have been notoriously difficult to access in operationalTHz QCLs. Here, we employ high-field THz pulses to perform the first ultr
Objectives: Colombia is proving to be a notable epicentre of risk for individuals actively engaged in human rights advocacy. Notwithstanding this pervasive risk, individuals continue to champion their cause on a daily basis. A trend is emerging of more and more Indigenous women taking prominent leadership roles to catalyse social change. With determination, these women are challenging entrenched s
I dagens arkitektur och konstruktion ökar ständigt efterfrågan på slanka och lätta strukturer. Möjligheten att använda stål i smala och starka byggelement skapar nya sätt för oss att konstruera våra byggnader och deras komponenter. Det ökade användandet av slanka stålstrukturer leder till nya och oväntade problem i bruksstadiet, som t.ex. vibrationer och buller. De här dynamiska svårigheterna utmaIn today’s architecture and construction there is an increasing demand for slender and lightweight structures. The possibility to use steel in slender and strong construction elements creates new ways of designing our buildings and their components. The increased use of slender steel structures leads to new and unexpected serviceability problems in structures, such as vibrations and noise. These d
BackgroundAlterations in levels of circulating micro-RNAs might reflect within organ signaling or subclinical tissue injury that is linked to risk of diabetes and cardiovascular risk. We previously found that serum levels of miR-483-5p is correlated with cardiometabolic risk factors and incidence of cardiometabolic disease in a case–control sample from the populations-based Malmö Diet and Cancer S
A well-functioning arterial system for the transport of oxygen to the cells is essential for human health. The aorta has a key role for the provision of this physiological effect. Disturbances to aortic function can lead to majorsymptoms and even death due to ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Multiple diseases may exacerbate, or alleviate the symptoms of aortic conditions.This thesis exami
This chapter represents a comparative study of the emergence of environmental policies in the Chilean and Swedish copper industry. The chapter identifies a number of key factors which helps to explain dissimilar characteristics of actions to protect the environment in both countries as well as the timing for these actions. One key difference identified—besides obvious factors such as income levels
The renovation of buildings involves multidisciplinary issues and multistakeholder involvement, which makes the process complex to manage. The purpose of this paper is to present a transparent, openly accessible, adaptable framework to ensure a sustainable renovation process, covering the technical, environmental, economic, social, and cultural historical aspects to be considered by the various ac
Armed conflict displaces a large number of people every year. Today, over 60 million people are estimated to have been forced from their homes because of circumstances beyond their control. Organizations such as UNHCR work to create sanctuaries for them to have their basic needs satisfied. During the years, the focus has expanded and steered towards providing refugees with developmental training a
Traditionella binära könsstereotyper utmanas idag allt mer av könsöverskridande uttryck i ett pågående globalt samhällsskifte som i synnerhet märks av i Sverige. Parallellt med detta samhällsskifte utmanas även tidigare forskning i hur varumärken kommunicerar könsuttryck, vilket möjliggör för ett ökat antal varumärkesgenuspositioner. Trots att en androgyn genusposition beskrivs som mest gynnsam ärTraditional binary gender stereotypes are increasingly being challenged by gender fluid expressions in an ongoing global societal shift that is particularly noticeable in Sweden. Parallel with this societal change, previous research on how brands communicate gender expressions is also being challenged, which enables an increased number of brand gender positions. Although an androgynous brand gende
The perceived problem being explored in this bachelor thesis study is how the widespread use of the term psykisk ohälsa (mental illness) might be used to include the perceived suffering that is a part of life. Based on this problem, the chosen purpose of this essay is to explore how welfare officers perceive the widespread use of the term psykisk ohälsa. Interviews have been conducted with seven w
Syftet med den här studien var att undersöka sambandet mellan kohesion (sammanhållning) och effektivitet i arbetsgrupper, vilket mättes i enkätundersökning med en svensk översättning av Group Environment Questionnaire - Work Team Version och Team Effectiveness Scale. Studien ville undersöka i vilken grad upplevd kohesion korrelerar med upplevd effektivitet inom arbetsgrupper på en polisstation medThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between cohesion and efficiency in work teams, as measured by a Swedish translation of the Group Environment Questionnaire - Work Team Version and Team Effectiveness Scale. The study examined in which extent perceived cohesion correlates with perceived efficiency within workgroups at a police station with policemen working on the field.
A critical discourse analysis about the portrayal of honour-related violence in Swedish newspapers In recent years there has been an increase in the number of articles written about honour-related violence in Swedish newspapers. The aim of this essay is to analyze and highlight how two major Swedish newspapers describe the subject of honour-related violence. More specifically the purpose is to in
Indigenous women suffer wide discrimination, exploitation and victimization in their societies. This study focuses on the experiences a group of Aymara women have of violence and discrimination, and what strategies they use to cope with these oppressive acts. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 Aymara women living in the city of El Alto in the country of Bolivia. The theoretical fram
Idag vet man genom flertalet forskningsrapporter och studier att barn som bevittnar våld i nära relationer kan ta lika stor skada som barn som direkt utsätts för misshandel, och att omfattningen av barns våldsexponering i hemmet är stor. Det har i förarbeten uttryckts att dessa barn kan anses vara föremål för en form av psykisk misshandel. Att låta barn bevittna våld är emellertid inte en kriminalWe know from a majority of research studies that children who witness domestic violence can take as much damage as children directly exposed to assault offenses, and that the extent of children's exposure of violence at home are of great proportions. It has been expressed in Swedish legislation that these children can be subject to psychological abuse. Allowing children to witness violence is
Wet room - demands and rules This paper explains how the legislative system is built concerning wet rooms within the construction industry. Legislation is developed by all involved authorities. The state has created laws and regulations through parliament and government. These laws are used as a foundation for Boverket, who has produced BBR, which specifies the minimum requirements for the propert
Comparative research related to any aspect of the process of breach in either the pretrial, sentencing or release phases is relatively rare. Comparative studies of decision making in the specific context of breach process are particularly lacking. One reason for the dearth of research in this area is the many challenges presented by comparative research across different jurisdictions. This article
