Från elevdiskurser till biologibruk : Sexualundervisning på gymnasiet

This thesis is about sex education and how sex education is constructed as a social phenomenon. The aim of the thesis is to explore how power and norms construct sex education as a social phenomenon and how power and norms shape discourses and knowledge in the content of the studied sex education, or exclude certain discourses and knowledge from it. A further aim is to make visible how sex educati

Marketing machines at work : performing e-commerce by assembling, adjusting, and maintaining a complex market device

This paper aims to explore and conceptualise the marketing work of e-commerce managers. It draws on an ethnographically inspired study involving 21 e-commerce managers and approaches marketing work as a set of socio-material practices. The analysis shows that the marketing work of e-commerce managers centres on assembling, adjusting, and maintaining ‘marketing machines’ – complex market devices de

Naturanpassade skyddsvallar mot stormfloder : Planering, anläggning, och förvaltning

Denna rapport är framtagen genom det Vinnova-finansierade projektet ”Naturbaserade skyddsvallar mot översvämning – planering, anläggning och förvaltning”. Projektet har varit ett samarbete mellan Vellinge kommun, Lunds universitet, Ecogain AB och Statens geotekniska institut (SGI). Föreliggande rapport är en sammanställning av de kunskaper och erfarenheter som har erhållits under detta projekt.

Religions of Europe : Selected Texts Presented at the Euroculture Intensive Programme 2021

This volume highlights the intricate relationship between religion, migration, and policy-making. It does so by investigating matters in different corners of Europe, from Iceland in the north to Spain in the south. With a clear focus on minority religions on the one hand and how Christianity is used to construct a European identity on the other, the authors provide insights into how different reli

Presenting Counterpoints to the Dominant Terrestrial Narrative of European Prehistory

Challenges the terrestrial focus of European prehistory, emphasizing the significance of seascapes, maritime networks, and coastal societies in shaping prehistoric Europe.For many years now, the main thrust of European prehistory has followed a fundamentally terrestrial plot line. This terrestrial paradigm has undervalued the story of Europe as a peninsula between the Baltic, Mediterranean and Atl

Larger boats, longer voyages, and powerful leaders : comparing Maritime Modes of Production in Scandinavia and California

Island and coastal societies around the world followed several unique developmental pathways that allowed for the formation of economically and politically complex systems. In this paper we argue that marine resources allow levels of intensification comparable to that of terrestrially focused societies, while seaworthy boats amplified the ability of emergent leaders to trade and raid over long dis

Review of wastewater treatment technologies, soil and water conservation measures in nuclear power plants, and inspirations to Fukushima accident

[Background] The previous studies suggest that radioactive elements like Cs+and Sr may adversely affect marine ecosystems and the fishing industry. Traditional treatment systems for radioactive wastewater like the Advanced Liquid Processing System (ALPS) and Kurion have faced challenges in limiting concentration and achieving safety criteria. Studies suggest potential long-term impacts on benthic

Piperacillin/tazobactam versus carbapenems for 30-day mortality in patients with ESBL-producing Enterobacterales bloodstream infections: a retrospective, multicenter, non-inferiority, cohort study

PurposeAntimicrobial resistance increases with the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. Studies evaluating antibiotic stewardship are in high demand. Is piperacillin/tazobactam non-inferior to carbapenems regarding 30-day mortality among patients with bloodstream infections caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamase-producing Enterobacterales?MethodsThis retrospective, multicenter, non-inferiority,

Optimizing industrial etching processes for PCB manufacturing : real-time temperature control using VGG-based transfer learning

Accurate temperature control in Printed Circuit Board (PCB) manufacturing is essential for maintaining high-quality etching results. Automated monitoring us-ing machine vision and deep learning offers an effective approach for this task. This study investigated a feature-based transfer learning technique for classifying temperature readiness in infrared images of the etching process. The captured

Small Books with a Mission : Prayer Books as Tools of Re-Catholicisation, c. 1540–1590

This thesis examines the role of German-language Catholic prayer books in the re-Catholicisation of Protestants during the approximate timeline 1540–1590. Within the broader context of the Catholic Reformation, these prayer books served as instruments of doctrinal transmission and devotional instruction, representing a form of ‘soft’ re-Catholicisation in contrast to the coercive methods used by s

Cellular and molecular cartography of muscle-invasive bladder cancer: Who benefits from neoadjuvant chemotherapy?

Muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) is characterised by significant molecular heterogeneity, with the tumour composition being further sculptured by local microenvironmental influences. This inherent complexity contributes to the divergent disease trajectories and the variable therapeutic susceptibility observed among patients. Consequently, there is an evident need for prognostic and predictive

KGB with a human face? End of illusions. : Social protests of Soviet workers in Novocherkassk 1962 as an initiator of a change in the character of the KGB

This article analyses the role of the Soviet political police and the KGB state security in suppressing large workers' protests in Novocherkassk in 1962. The aim is not only to study the actions of the KGB during the crisis itself, but above all to show how the events in Novocherkassk contributed to the subsequent change in the overall character of this repressive service and, more generally, the
