Art forms tend to mirror themselves in each other. In order to understand literature and fine arts better, we often turn to music, speaking of the ‘tone’ in a book and of the ‘rhythm’ in a painting. In attempts to understand music better, we turn instead to the narrative arts, speaking of the ‘story’ of a musical piece. This book focuses on two examples of such conceptual mirror reflexivity: narraArt forms tend to mirror themselves in each other.

Många som är aktiva i samhällsdebatten vittnar om ett hårdnande klimat och en rad ordförande i olika civilsamhällesorganisationer har avgått under de senaste åren efter att ha blivit hotade och kränkta på olika sätt, vilket har uppmärksammats i media. Kunskapen om hat, hot och kränkningar mot ledare i civilsamhället är dock begränsad, både internationellt och i Sverige. Syftet med artikeln är att

Bakgrund Den 20 januari 2020 senarelades ålderspensionen i Sverige för alla yrkesgrupper. Samtidigt ökar den arbetsrelaterade sjukligheten. I ett framtidsperspektiv kommer efterfrågan på arbetskraft som kan och vill arbeta till en högre ålder att öka utifrån den globala demografiska förändringen. Att medverka till en god anställningsbarhet (employability) och hälsa är därför en central fråga och uHållbart arbetsliv för alla åldrar – swAge modellenKerstin Nilsson1, 21Högskolan Kristianstad, 2Lunds universitetBakgrundDen 20 januari 2020 senarelades ålderspensionen i Sverige för alla yrkesgrupper.

Ozone was applied to return activated sludge in full-scale to study how ozone impacts filamentous bacteria viability (Live/Dead®). Additionally, the ozonated sludges were subjected to anaerobic digestion trials and analysis of micropollutants. Ozone treatment (3-4.8 g O3/kg TSS) improved the settling properties of the sludge by lowering the diluted sludge volume with 7-35%.

The aim of the article is to explore trade unions’ use of Internet and social media in communicating with members and to understand membership in the digital era. A point of departure is that new forms of relationships between individuals and organizations are on the rise as our present societies become more digitalized, which has changed how citizens interact, mobilize, and organize.

Although thinking double thoughts and living dual lives are not specifically Iranian traits, Iranians have, nevertheless, become more susceptible to them for historical reasons, which may be traced back to when Persians became Muslims. The gradual normalization of double‐thinking over the centuries has given rise to social and political patterns of behavior and institutional arrangements which osc

International organisations (IOs) play increasingly important roles in world politics. As states face more complex challenges they have joined together in IOs to solve their common problems. Yet once an IO has been created it may take on a life of its own, and it becomes difficult for its state founders to control what it does. Permanent secretariats populated by experts are one of the most import

Little is known about how gendered understandings of patients can inform professionals’ discretionary actions and decisions to include or exclude in clinical practice. Using Connell's poststructuralist perspectives on gender as an analytic framework, this article aims to investigate how professionals’ articulations of depression are framed by signs of masculinity and femininity, and how these artiLittle is known about how gendered understandings of patients can inform professionals’ discretionary actions and decisions to include or exclude in clinical practice.

Presently, there is no single, coherent theory on the causality between cities and economic growth, only a fragmented set of theories. Current patterns and trends for the relationship between cities and economic growth, however, suggest that a full understanding of contemporary processes will not be achieved by relying on the tools of one discipline alone, or by focusing on a single level of analy

Today, in vitro (Latin: in glass) meat researchers strive to overhaul meat production technologies by producing meat outside animal bodies, primarily by culturing cells. In the process, meat should become healthier, more environmentally friendly and kinder to animals.

Now, more than ever, we are told that 'authenticity' is an added value that customers want. The objective of this study is to determine what kind of authenticity is relevant to design, and whether it can be used as a standardised procedure to improve product design. In this study industrial designers were interviewed about their views on authenticity. The paper represents the combined result of a

Alla djur uppfattar världen med sina sinnen, vilka ger information till beslut och rörelser. Tyvärr har sinnena begränsningar och när de upphör att ge pålitlig information kommer djurets överlevnad att hotas. Synsinnet till exempel utmanas dagligen, eftersom dess signalstyrka minskar när mörkret faller och ökar igen när solen går upp. I denna avhandling undersökte jag synsystemets anpassningar hosAll animals perceive the world through their senses, which form the basis for their decisions and motor actions. However, when these all-important senses reach their limit and cease to provide reliable information, the animal’s survival is threatened. Among the senses, vision is brought to its limits on a daily basis, because its signal strength is diminished as night falls, and increases again as

Detta är en pilotstudie som är utförd av Stefan Larsson, docent i teknik och social förändring vid Lunds universitets internetinstitut (LUii). Studien har utförts under 2016 på uppdrag av Konsumentverket i syfte att peka ut några av de för konsumentintresset viktigaste aspekterna med digitaliseringen. När man studerar digitalisering och dess konsumentbetydelse så ser man ganska snart att dess effe

Vad ska en kursguide eller kurs-PM innehålla? Hur bör ett sådant dokument struktureras? Kursguider har som instruktionsdokument kommit att bli allt mer viktiga som dokument i undervisning på universitet och högskolor och utvecklats till att bli ett semiofficiellt dokument mellan kursplanernas formella nivå och undervisningens mer informella nivå (jfr Robinson 2011, Rowan & Correnti 2009).

Popular Abstract in Swedish Ett ökade förbrukningen av fossila bränslen kommer att accelerera den globala uppvärmningen med oöverskådlig inverkan på oss och vår miljö. Utvecklingen av alternativa, förnybara och miljömässigt rena energiformer är därför helt essentiell. En möjlig lösning är att skapa artificiell fotosyntes, där solenergi omvandlas till bränsle (till exempel vätgas) i en process där A continuing use of fossil fuels will accelerate global warning and result in severe consequences for the environment and thereby also us. Development of alternative, sustainable and environmentally friendly energy sources is therefore crucial. One approach is to create an artificial photosynthetic system that converts sunshine into fuel (e.g. hydrogen gas) by splitting water molecules. However, i

Varför vet alla med svenska som modersmål att det heter "en intressant bok" och inte "en bok intressant"? Det beror på vår fantastiska, inre grammatik. Insikten om hur man uttrycker sig på modersmålet är något som barnet lär sig under de första levnadsåren, och redan i treårsåldern behärskar barnet huvuddelen av de omedvetna regler och principer som styr hur meningarna i modersmålet är uppbyggda.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Datorer har blivit en viktig del inom den moderna medicinen. Resultat från patientundersökningar såsom bilder, kurvor och mätvärden bearbetas ofta av datorer och presenteras sedan på ett överskådligt sätt för läkaren som grundar sitt svar på bland annat denna information. Denna doktorsavhandling beskriver hur datorn kan hjälpa till vid själva tolkningen av undersökningThe principal purposes of the studies reported in this thesis were to develop new methods to make computerised decision support systems in medicine both more reliable and fully automated. These aims were pursued in the belief that the solution to these problems will lead to an increased clinical use of such systems resulting in benefit to both patient and physician. In the first two studies, meth

Popular Abstract in Swedish Magnetresonanstomografi med faskontrast (PC-MRI) är en icke-invasiv metod för att mäta hastigheter och blodflöden i kroppens större blodkärl, och är ett viktigt verktyg för att diagnosticera och avbilda onormala fysiologiska förlopp. Under de senaste två årtiondena har PC-MRI utvecklats från hastighetsmätningar i enskilda riktningar och snitt till avbildning av komplettIn the last two decades, phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (PC-MRI) has evolved from two-dimensional velocity and flow measurements to volumetric, time-resolved depictions of velocity fields (4D PC). The acquisition of time-resolved velocity fields allows flow visualisations that might provide better understanding of the dynamics of the cardiac system. Because 4D PC is increasingly being u
