Michael Tapper considers Swedish culture and ideas from the period 1965 to 2012 as expressed in detective fiction and film in the tradition of Maj Sjöwall and Per Wahlöö. Believing the Swedish police narrative tradition to be part and parcel of the European history of ideas and culture, Tapper argues thaSwedish Copst, from being feared and despised, the police emerged as heroes and part of the mod
We study ways to expedite Yates's algorithm for computing the zeta and Moebius transforms of a function defined on the subset lattice. We develop a trimmed variant of Moebius inversion that proceeds point by point, finishing the calculation at a subset before considering its supersets. For an n-element universe U and a family F of its subsets, trimmed Moebius inversion allows us to compute the num
In this paper we show that several metals, elements and energy resources are about to run into scarcity within the next decades, and most elements within some centuries. A new global systems model was assembled to analyse this scarcity as a continuation of the model used in the Limits-to-Growth World3 model. We show that this scarcity will lead to “peak wealth”, “peak population”, “peak costs”, “p
Popular Abstract in Swedish Sepsis, blodförgiftning, är ett potentiellt allvarligt tillstånd där bakterier eller deras toxiner aktiverar immunsystemet I blodbanan. Svår sepsis är associerad med organdysfunktion och hög mortalitet (30-60%). Cirka 200 per 100 000 invånare i Sverige drabbas årligen av svår sepsis. Akut lungskada är en central komponent hos patienter med sepsis och experimentella studSepsis and subsequent multiple organ failure remain the major cause of mortality in intensive care units. Leukocyte-mediated tissue damage is a key feature in septic lung injury. Accumulating data suggest that platelets play a role in inflammation and tissue injury. However, the role of platelets in sepsis-induced leukocyte recruitment and lung edema formation in abdominal sepsis is not demonstrat
Avhandlingen består av en etnografisk studie där äldre människors användning av teknik relateras till deras vardagliga kontext och till deras livslånga vana av tekniskanvändning och teknisk förändring. Två i vardagen välintegrerade teknologier - telefonen och televisionen - och två teknologier de fått i hög ålder - trygghetslarmet och handla hemma terminal - fokuseras. Resultatet visar att äldre m
The purpose of this paper is to empirically explore two dimensions of the firm hierarchy of international market-specific linkages using data for Swedish manufacturing firms over the 1997 to 2007 period. First, we investigate the productivity ordering with respect to importing, exporting and investing abroad. Second, we investigate the productivity ordering with respect to linkage complexity (i.e.
In June 2008, 53 top-tier security directors belonging to a security association responded to an on-line survey. There were several purposes of the survey: first, addressing end-user attitudes towards the digitalisation of security systems; second, understand what behaviour was associated with a role model security capability and, third, to formulate an understanding of the interaction between the
Popular Abstract in Swedish Efter terroristattackerna den 11 september 2001 har FN:s säkerhetsråd - med USA i spetsen - radikalt utvidgat sina egna befogenheter när det gäller att upprätthålla internationell fred och säkerhet genom att anta resolutioner som i praktiken är lagstiftande. Resolution 1373 (som behandlar terrorism) och resolution 1540 (som behandlar spridning av massförstörelsevapen tiSince the end of the Cold War, international politics and international law have not only become increasingly intertwined, but their mutual implications have also become increasingly recognized by scholars. Yet research explicitly addressing the question of how political factors affect the emergence of legal rules is still limited. This doctoral dissertation aims to take a step in the direction of
Bullied into it: Bullying, Power and the Conduct of Conduct takes issue with the way in which the relations between school bullying and power have commonly been understood. Drawing on long-term ethnographic fieldwork conducted in two schools in the northern Vietnamese port city of Haiphong, the book contextually situates the bullying that occurs within the disciplinary framework of the school an

We highlight some results from our high-resolution spectroscopic elemental abundance survey of F and G dwarf stars in the solar neighbourhood.
The poet and bishop Esaias Tegnér did not write any hymns, but he admired very much the hymns of his contemporary author colleagues, especially those of J. O. Wallin. In some of his poems, hymnsinging and organ music are motifs. As a bishop, he made efforts to spread the use of the hymnal of 1819.
