I den här studien undersöks 68-vänsterns syn på konflikten i Mellanöstern. Genom att använda Laclau & Mouffes diskursteori har jag undersökt på vilket sätt de ”reaktionära” arabiska staterna och regimerna framställs, samt hur man betraktar de palestinska motståndsrörelsernas kamp i relation till de arabiska samhällena. Studiens källmaterial är tidskrifter som kopplas till 68-rörelsen samt den

Through this degree project, we have come up with effective methods in the computer program ArchiCAD that architects use during project planning for buildings. The purpose of the degree project was to examine how architects and software developers use ArchiCAD effectively, in the building process so that also information transfer to other actors works. The theory of the degree project deals with t

The study shows that almost 80 % of the government offic

I den här studien undersöker vi huruvida individers explicita attityder till olika former av partnervåld ändrar sig eller inte efter ett interventionsmoment, samt om detta skiljer sig på grund av individernas tendenser till anknytningsstil. Deltagarna i studien var gymnasieelever i årskurs tre (N= 98) vilka delades upp i en kontrollgrupp och en interventionsgrupp. Samtliga fick besvara enkäterna A

Vid arbetet med efterbehandling av förorenad jord har Miljöförvaltningen i Malmö noterat att minst 90 % av saneringarna i Malmö sker genom uppgrävning och bortforsling av jordmassorna, så kallad schaktsanering. En stor del av de uppgrävda jordmassorna deponeras, men en del renas och återanvänds inom deponier. En önskan från Miljöförvaltningen är att sanering sker med alternativa metoder, där den fThe Environment Department in Malmö has, during the work with remediation of contaminated soil, noted that at least 90% of the decontaminations in Malmö are done by excavation and removal of soil, so-called excavation remediation. Most of the excavated contaminated soil is deposited, but some is purified and reused in landfills. A wish expressed by the Environment Department is that the decontamin

Abstract Inbreeding (selfing) was investigated already by Charles Darwin, who wanted to understand why outcrossing (non-selfing) is the predominant mating choice in the kingdom of plants. He found that inbreeding often results in less viable and fertile plants compared to outcrossing, what is known as inbreeding depression, and can be explained with increased homozygosity in the inbred, making the

Olikheter i nationers lagstiftning och mellan olika rättsystem vad gäller restriktioner i hur man värderar säkerhetsrätter där själva säkerheten inte befinner sig i borgenärens besittning har länge försvårat marknaden för finansiering och leasing, särskilt vad gäller högt värderad egendom såsom luftfartsutrustning, rullande järnvägsmateriell och tillgångar avsedda för rymden. Dessutom ger lagstift

The study is made on the daily returns of the OMX Stockholm 30 index between 2002-01-01 and 2010- 12-31. A five year in-sample set was used to estimate the model parameters and to make one-day

Questo lavoro è dedicato alla traduzione del romanzo Gomorra di Roberto Saviano, tradotto nello svedese da Barbro Andersson. Da un lato, si analizza la traduzione di vari fenomeni grammaticali, come le parafrasi, le frasi condensate, le frasi ellittiche e l’uso del gerundio. Dall’altro, si indaga su come cambino in svedese varie locuzioni e casi di linguaggio figurato. This essay contains an a

This study deals with the acquisition of negation in French second language for Swedish speakers in written production. In fact, numerous studies have been dedicated to this subject, investigating learners with different first languages. However, these studies often examine the acquisition of negation in oral language. Given the difference between speaking and writing in French language, it is als

Då konkurrensen mellan börsbolagen ökat och det generella finansklimatet hårdnat är det i dagsläget nästintill en daglig företeelse att svenska börsbolag genomför olika typer av emissioner. Börsbolagens ökade kapitalbeho¬v har även lett till en klar ökning vad gäller bolagens användning av riktade emissioner och samtidigt åskådliggjort vissa bolags- och aktiemarknads-rättsliga problem som uppstår The increased competition between listed companies on the Swedish stock market (“Stock market” below) in connection with a hardening of the financial climate has made various types of stock issues almost a daily occurrence on the Stock market. The companies’ steadily increasing capital requirements has also led to a significant upturn in the use of targeted stock issues. This development exemplifi

The coalescence of emulsion droplets during the homogenization process is governed by the emulsifier adsorption rate. This is in turn affected by the size and shape of the adsorbing molecule which can be dependant of the aggregation states. The aim of this thesis was to develop a model system suitable for measuring the efficiency of emulsifier during homogenization and to evaluate the hypothesis t

Galectin är ett protein som har visats vara involverad i biologiska processer som intracellulär transport, cellsignalering, celldöd och celladhesion. Dessa processer kan i sin tur vara relaterade till inflammation, cancer och immunitet. I galectin finns det kolhydrat igenkännande domäner där β-galaktosid kan binda in. β-Galaktosid är en glykosid som innehåller galaktos. Glykosider är ämnen med tvåGalectins play an important role in inflammation, immunity, cancer progression and are potential targets for novel anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory compounds. Coumarin thiodigalacoside hydrid had proved to be potent, nanomolar, and selective inhibitor of galectin-3. Three novel coumarin thiodigalactoside derivatives have been synthesized by copper-catalyzed multicomponent reaction. Two compounds

Utvärdering av ett målprotein för behandling av ledgångsreumatism Reumatisk artrit (RA), eller ledgångsreumatism som det också kallas, är en autoimmun sjukdom som 1% av världens befolkning lider av. Kroppens egna immunceller blir autoreaktiva och attackerar lederna i främst händer och fötter. Den ökade mängden immunceller i de här lederna resulterar i svullnad och inflammation, men även ben och bRheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease resulting in swelling and destruction of bone and cartilage within the small joints. The mechanism behind the disease is not fully understood, but the interaction of autoreactive T-cells with effector cells like B-cells and macrophages through cytokine signaling is believed to be important. A potential target for drug development against arthritis that

I vilken utsträckning är det rimligt att friskriva sig från ansvar i ett kontraktsförhållande? Detta är en central fråga som behandlas i denna uppsats. Svaret på frågan är beroende av en strävan att upprätthålla en balans mellan å ena sidan principerna om pacta sunt servanda och avtalsfrihet, och behovet av att motverka oskälighet i avtalsförhållanden å andra sidan. Ett avgörande som skapat ny gTo what extent is it reasonable to exclude one’s liability in a contractual relationship? This is a key issue addressed in this paper. The answer depends on a desire to maintain a balance between the principles of pacta sunt servanda and freedom of contract on one hand, and the need to counteract the unfairness of contractual relations on the other. A ruling that has created new breeding ground f

Abstract The parasite Gyrodactylus salaris has recently spread to several new wild salmon rivers at the Swedish west coast. A study was carried out in River Himleån, infected in 2005, to investigate if the salmon population was negatively influenced by the parasite. In October 2007 salmon parr were captured by electrofishing. The fish were anaesthetized and their length and weight were measured.

Abstract Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed type of cancer in women worldwide. Inherited or acquired aberrations of genes in DNA damage repair, cell cycle checkpoint, apoptosis, and growth signaling pathways are responsible for the generation of breast cancer. Recently, increasing evidence shows that signaling pathways can be highly interconnected and are interacting with each other rat
