Per oltre quarant’anni, la scrittura della storia nei paesi dell’Europa orientaleè stata fortemente condizionata dagli imperativi ideologici e propagandisticidei regimi comunisti. La storia, più di ogni altra disciplina umanistica, offrivagiustifi cazioni, e quindi legittimità, al potere. Indagare il rapporto tra storia epotere in questo ambito signifi ca tanto addentrarsi nella storia dei sociali
Have Orthodox Christian churches engaged in creation of novelreligious practices during the coronavirus pandemic? How dothose practices emerge, and how do laypeople respond to them?This article addresses these questions by reflecting on the majorproject findings based on examination of Orthodox churches ofRussia, Ukraine and Georgia. The findings build on a theoreticalframework that includes sever
Evaluating the sustainability impacts of the sharing economy using input-output analysis’ by Andrius Plepys and Jagdeep Singh presents key challenges associated with a systematic sustainability evaluation of access-based consumption models. Starting with a causal loop diagram representing various reported and potential impacts of a generic sharing system, the authors provide a comprehensive pictur
In this chapter we share, reflect and learn from the findings of a long-standing collaboration between two teacher educators who have been working together on the topic of refugee education since 2016. Based in Sweden and England, the two researchers have over that time reflected on the changing educational and political discourse which permeates the contexts in which they work. In this chapter, w
Across different domains, justice is considered either from a perspective concerning mind-independent features of a situation or from a perspective related to mind-dependent motives, traits or emotions. Although these approaches have generated valuable insights, they remain largely disconnected from each other. What is missing is an integrative framework that can explain how the objective features
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is a highly influential financial international organization that will be vital for the success of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). While the IMF has been criticized by civil society actors for its negative impact on sustainable development, it is now focusing on supporting the SDGs. This support is particularly relevant when it comes to ensuring the
This study utilizes a novel analytical framework to examine large-scale development-focused scholarship programs for international higher education. The Indonesia Endowment Fund for Education (LPDP) is systematically analyzed here utilizing its 2013–2022 annual reports. Applying the orders of worth approach, LPDP’s claims and justifications towards the common good are studied, alongside the organi
Construction with timber is becoming increasingly popular, partially due to its environmental benefits in comparison to steel and concrete. This is especially true for cross-laminated timber (CLT) panels an engineered wood product consisting of stacked timber lamellae oriented perpendicu-larly to each other. CLT panels have high stiffness in comparison to its mass, which leads to a sensitivity to
Low-grade superficial connective tumors are a heterogeneous group of benign/reactive, intermediate—locally aggressive and intermediate—rarely metastasizing lesions arising in skin and subcutaneous/superficial soft tissues. The most common targets for fine needle aspiration (FNA) in this group of lesions are schwannomas, desmoids, and “pseudosarcomatous lesions” such as nodular fasciitis. Experienc
This chapter describes methods and procedures that can be used to calculate the absorbed dose distribution based on quantitative SPECT/PET images. In this context, quantitative images mean images corrected for various physical effects (among them are photon attenuation, scatter contribution, dead time) in such a way that the values of each voxel can then be translated into units of activity by a c
The aim of the present study was to determine the pollution load originating from storm water on Lake Vaxjosjon. Each year about 1,050,000 m3 of storm water are discharged into the lake. Storm water represents a substantial pollution source for the lake and therefore also a main reason for the hypertrophic conditions in the lake. In order to evaluate the effects of the discharged storm water on th
Energy conservation plays a vital role towards sustainable development of meat processing. Energy costs for many meat plants represent the fourth highest operational cost. In meat processing, moderate levels of both electrical and thermal energy are consumed in wide range of processes and applications. However, energy efficiency improvement in the meat processing industry have been a focus to incr
The purpose of this study was to develop deeper knowledge about physicians’ lived experiences of breaking bad news by identifying their common meanings and inter-relatedness along with their potential alignment with process-oriented and relational aspects. Based on the methodology of descriptive phenomenology, in-depth interviews were conducted with 22 physicians from a wide variety of specialties
In order to meet the wishes of Lund University management to showcase and display the work conducted in relation to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the management of Lund's Pure installation has undertaken a project. The direct use of automatic tagging of SDGs turned out to be insufficient, so we devised a number of steps to utilize the data in a controlled manner. This includes a general me
This chapter aims to be a broad introduction for embedded systems professionals that wish to add machine learning to traditional embedded software. It briefly describes the foundation for a stable and secure IoT communication platform, touching on important areas such as the MQTT protocol and data extraction. The discussion is based on a case study for a digitalized marine vessel, and focuses on g
