Anhörigbehörigheten i Sverige och Norge - En jämförande utvärdering av de första åren med regleringen

Att ge anhöriga en behörighet att företräda en familjemedlem direkt med stöd av lag är nytt både i Sverige och Norge. Reglerna infördes i Norge 1 juli 2013 och i Sverige 1 juli 2017.

Deconstructing the (E)state - An interpretive content analysis of the Danish government’s 2018 ‘ghetto-initiative’

This thesis seeks to study the connection between space, architecture, city planning, policy and human rights. The case studied is the so-called Danish ‘ghetto-initiative’, focusing on the government’s 2018-plan “A Denmark Without Parallel Societies – No Ghettos By 2030”. The strategy entails initiatives legalizing sales, demolishing and renovation of residential areas that fulfils criteria based

Factors associated with sex differences in viral non-suppression in the Swedish InfCareHIV cohort : An observational real-world study

Objectives: Women living with HIV are underrepresented in clinical trials assessing outcomes of antiretroviral treatment (ART), justifying the need for observational studies. We investigated differences in viral non-suppression between women and men in the Swedish InfCareHIV cohort and analysed results in relation to biological and socio-demographic variables and patient-reported outcome measures

Distribution of intranasal naloxone to potential opioid overdose bystanders in Sweden : Effects on overdose mortality in a full region-wide study

Objectives Distribution of take-home naloxone is suggested to reduce opioid-related fatalities, but few studies have examined the effects on overdose deaths in the general population of an entire community. This study aimed to assess the effects on overdose deaths of a large-scale take-home naloxone programme starting in June 2018, using an observational design with a historic control period. Desi

The Swedish perfect and periphrasis

This paper investigates the apparent near-optionality of the perfect auxiliary ha (‘have’) in Swedish. Restrictions on the near-optionality of ha-omission are typically recognized in the previous literature as lexical or structural. The paper scrutinizes the viability of these restrictions by means of corpus data. Most of these restrictions are shown not to hold. Instead, the paper defends the vie

Grassroots mobilization for a just, green urban future: Building community infrastructure against green gentrification and displacement

Municipal climate resiliency and re-naturing plans are promoting greening and green (re)development, such as the inclusion of new parks, greenways, or rehabilitated shorelines, frequently as a-political, win-win solutions for all residents. Greenwashing and (re)development of green amenities in vulnerable neighborhoods—those often most in need of support toward resilience and adaptation—expose res

Teaching Creatively in Higher Education : The Roles of Personal Attributes and Environment

The aim of this study was to explore university teachers’ perceptions of creative teaching and other factors that may influence academics’ efforts to teach creatively in higher education in Sweden. A qualitative case study was employed, interviewing 14 university teachers in three focus group interviews. The results show that the university teachers’ perceptions of creative teaching differed sligh

Hybrid heterogeneous phantoms for biomedical applications: a demonstration to dosimetry validation

Phantoms simultaneously mimicking anatomical and optical properties of real tissues can play a pivotal role for improving dosimetry algorithms. The aim of the paper is to design and develop a hybrid phantom model that builds up on the strengths of solid and liquid phantoms for mimicking various anatomical structures for prostate cancer photodynamic therapy (PDT) dosimetry validation. The model com

Tomorrowland : Critical Social Theory of Planetary Politics

We live in ‘Tomorrowland’; a land at the nexus of social science and natural science where the solution to our problems will be found tomorrow. The paper addresses the impossibility of international relations by proposing an alternative approach located in critical social theory. The paper utilises critical social theory to critique contemporary liberal assumptions and rationalisations of cultures

Feasibility of 177Lu activity quantification using a small portable CZT-based gamma-camera

Background: In image processing for activity quantification, the end goal is to produce a metric that is independent of the measurement geometry. Photon attenuation needs to be accounted for and can be accomplished utilizing spectral information, avoiding the need of additional image acquisitions. The aim of this work is to investigate the feasibility of 177Lu activity quantification with a small

Måla hela området rött - en studie av dörrknackning som retorisk situation

Denna studie undersöker den politiska kampanjmetoden dörrknackning (canvassing) med syftet att få en inblick i hur dörrknackarna upplever den retoriska situationen ute i fält. Det empiriska materialet har samlats in genom tio kvalitativa forskningsintervjuer och analyserats med Lloyd F. Bitzers modell “The Rhetorical Situation” (1968). Slusatserna är att dörrknackning som metod är situationell i sThis study examines the rhetorical situation of door-to-door canvassing through qualitative research interviews with partisan canvassers from the Social Democratic Party in Malmö, Sweden, with the theoretical framework of Lloyd F. Bitzer's "The Rhetorical Situation" (1968). The study concludes that door-to-door canvassing is situational in its form, and must therefore respond to audi

The Covid-19 lesson from Sweden: Don't lock down

Covid-19 triggered a wave of lockdowns across the world, contributing to a severe downturn in economic activity. Governments responded by introducing expansionary fiscal and monetary measures. We compare the health and economic outcomes in Sweden, commonly viewed as an outlier relying more on recommendations and voluntary adjustments than on strict lockdowns, with those of comparable European OECDCovid-19 triggered a wave of lockdowns across the world, contributing to a severe downturn in economic activity.
