Since May 1998 Scandinavian group researchers and social psychologists have met bi-annually for what has to be called the GRASP conference. GRASP originally stood for ”Group as Paradox”. The first five conferences were held in Linköping, Lund, Stockholm and Skövde and, again, Linköping. The sixth conference was organized at Lund University May 15-16, 2008 under the auspices of the network Organi
This study examines the factors influencing the perceptions and attitudes of Poles towards Ukrainian workers in the Polish labor market, incorporating the extension of Allport (1956)’s contact theory by Pettigrew and Tropp (2006). Given the economic relationship between Ukraine and Poland, the influx of Ukrainian immigrants, and the absence of a comprehensive immigration policy, understanding thes
This thesis explores the ways in which architectural sites establish and maintain Dubai’s claim to global city status. In a globalized world, localities must succeed in translocal networks in order to ensure their survival and prosperity, and global recognition of local uniqueness is thus integral to the establishment of global cities. Architecture plays an essential role in producing locality in
This research paper examines the European Union's merger control regime and its efficacy in addressing the killer acquisitions by big tech firms in the fast-evolving digital sphere. It investigates the legal framework, competition policy objectives, and more importantly the impact of the digital sector on EU competition policy. Furthermore, it critically analyses the killer acquisitions by
Med grund i EU:s konstitutionella utrikesrätt (EU External Relations Law) utforskar den här uppsatsen EU:s traktatmakande på luftfartsområdet. Sambandet mellan doktrinen om implicit befogenhet och traktatmakandesystemet på luftfartsområdet har knappast studerats. Dessa båda fenomen har beskrivits i EU External Relations Law respektive i folkrätten på flygfartsområdet. Den här uppsatsen överbryggarThis thesis explores the aviation treaty-making of the EU through the lens of EU External Relations Law. The relationship between the doctrine of implied competence and the treaty-making system in aviation has scarcely been studied. Both phenomena have been described in EU External Relations Law and international public aviation law, respectively; this thesis bridges and explores the gap between t
The European Union has undergone a transformation from being an economical cooperation to also include politics, and is now moving towards a more juridical polity. Much of the juridical visions of freedom, security and justice are created within various Working Groups. A recent addition to this process is the informal working group called the Future Group, comprised by six European interior minis
Members have traditionally played a central role in civil society organisations (CSOs) since they typically are the ones who decide upon the course of the organisation and carry out organisational activities. However, with organisations becoming more professionalised, concerns have been raised about the future role of members. Previous research point to different consequences on membership due to
Phytophagous insects, comprising over half a million species, depend on plants for survival and are broadly categorised as specialists or generalists based on the range of host plants they exploit. Host plant selection is shaped by environmental factors, such as local plant availability, and ecological pressures, including competition and predation. While patterns of specialisation and generalisat
With artificial intelligence (AI) technology constantly evolving and changing, policy makers struggle to keep up with it through the creation of adequate rules and regulations. The European Union (EU) has made the first attempt at AI regulation, outlining the need for respect of democracy, human rights and calling for transparency in AI usage. However, discussions about AI often overlook the femin
Seriepositionseffekter och recency-kvoten har visat potential som kliniska verktyg riktade mot neurokognitiva störningar, de har dock förblivit outforskade i Claeson-Dahls Test för inlärning och minne (CDT). Den aktuella studien syftade att fylla kunskapsluckan, vilket gjordes genom naturalistiskt insamlade data (N = 110) från ett projekt avsett att uppdatera CDT:s normer. Jag hypotiserade förekomSerial positioning effects and the derived recency ratio has shown increasing promise as clinical tools for evaluating neurocognitive disorders. These measures have remained unexplored in Claeson-Dahl’s Test for verbal learning and retention (CDT). To correct this, the present study used naturalistic sample data (N = 110) from a project intended to update CDT’s norms. I hypothesized the prevalence
In disaster risk management, participatory mapping (PM) closes spatial data gaps in communities by integrating local risk knowledge. The thesis examined the potential and limitations of the Sketch Map Tool (SMT) as a PM tool for community-based disaster risk reduction (DRR) through an International Red Cross Red Crescent Movement case study. The research evaluated the SMT's applicability for c
Currently, the European Union (EU) is the “green leader”, globally, in adopting policies to support longer product lifetimes. One reason for this state of affairs is that EU Member States are adopting progressive policies, which put pressure on the EU to set EU-wide laws to replace national ones. The main reason for this situation is that national rules may lead to distortions in trade in the EU S
This systematic review and meta-analysis of individual patient data evaluates the outcomes of treatment for Dupuytren's disease using limited fasciectomy (LF), percutaneous needle fasciotomy (PNF) and collagenase clostridium histolyticum (CCH) injection. A total of 1423 studies were identified, of which 15 met the eligibility criteria for meta-analysis. The postoperative total extension deficit wa
The “Warburg effect”, a metabolic adaptation observed in dividing cells, involves a shift from mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation to cytoplasmic glucose metabolism. This metabolic process is characterized by increased cellular uptake of glucose and glutamine, elevated intracellular pH and sodium levels, enhanced protection against oxidative stress, altered autophagy, and increased lactate pro
The life of Jerome of Stridon (d. 419/420), who was regarded as a father of the church and one of the most important authorities in the Middle Ages, has often been depicted as highly controversial: In modern reconstructions, Jerome is typically described as an outsider, constantly involved in controversies and frequently criticized and questioned by his contemporaries. This begs the question of ho
In 1634, silver was found in inland Sápmi, on the present border between Norway and Sweden. The Swedish Crown had the ore extracted and a works for refining the silver was established in Silbojokk the following year. During the coming decades, two more works and many mines were opened in Sápmi. Sámi, Swedish and Dutch/German migrant workers were employed under restrictive conditions and in a harsh
This paper investigates how bank liability regimes shaped liquidity responses during the Great Depression in Sweden. Using monthly balance sheet data (1929-1934), we find that unlimited liability banks increased liquid assets more aggressively in response to monetary tightening and crisis, reallocating away from securities. In contrast, limited liability banks exhibited weaker responses. Mechanism
