The city of Malmö in southern Sweden has long argued and presented itself as a city of tomorrow and a city for everyone. The city often shows itself as a modern city with a focus on modern technology. One of the ways Malmö wishes to present itself as a leading city is through the development of the city’s infrastructure and mobility. The city has lofty goals focused on bringing democracy to the sp

The study is a narrative study based on two life history interviews (n = 2) with people who have dissociative identity disorder (DID), formerly known as multiple personality disorder (MPD). The study also includes five interviews (n = 12) with professionals, who in their work meet people with DID. The study investigates how people with DID are experiencing the encounter with Mental Health Care and

The connection between neuroscience, popular media and lay perceptions of the brain involves the framing of complex scientific processes and results through familiar cultural narratives and metaphors. Such narratives are often built on the premise that neuroscience, with the help of powerful new technologies, will finally solve the mysteries of brain and mind, consciousness and morality. At the sa

Ovid closed his 15-book epic of transformation with the metamorphosis of the poet into his work and his work into its own reception, summed up in the final word: uiuam (‘I shall live’). The prophecy has been self-fulfilling, in that the Metamorphoses has entertained readers and inspired artists in different media for two millennia since the poet’s death in AD 17. Loved for its vast repository of m

Swedish mining is often envisioned as virtuous, as coinciding harmoniously with quests for sustainability and the cultural survival of indigenous Sami peoples. This chapter posits that Sweden’s sense of exceptionalism in mining is embedded in a colonial/extractive system of knowledge that fails to mention non-capitalist, anticolonial relationalities to nature and ways of life. The normalised statu

Addressing climate change and the collapse of ecosystems without threatening the economy, while simultaneously improving the well-being of all people, and ensuring social justice and equality seems to be the largest challenge in the history of mankind. So far, all the efforts to address growing environmental and human problems through technological solutions and half-hearted policy measures have b

Vocabularies of space define the world. Yet, despite their apparent conceptual authority (Harley 1989), the lineagesof cartographic entities are often blurred, accidental, and produced from etymologies only imperfectly understoodby their users. Drawing on a recent study on past and present meanings of the term ‘Mesopotamia’ (Rattenborg2018), this paper reviews the inadvertent, if now firmly embedd

The dream of woman : the construction of hegemonic femininity and the woman’s place in bourgeois culture in the Swedish and British fashion press, 1830–1855. This thesis investigates the construction of hegemonic femininity in British and Swedish fashion periodicals between 1830 and 1855, a period often overlooked in history research. Through an intersectional lens, drawing on theories of fashion

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen handlar om två städer - Malmö i Sverige och Kapstaden i Sydafrika - och om några speciella platser i dessa städer.

More specifically it focuses on three areas; the neighbourhoods Möllevången and Woodstock close to the respective city centres, and the street Long Street in the very heart of Cape Town central business district. These places belong to different historical and political contexts. Möllev

This PhD thesis deals with anthropomorphic images from the Vendel and Viking Ages, their contexts and functions. The images are seen as means of communication with “effective power” or agency ("Wirkmächtigkeit"). They could have had a relationship of interaction or partial identity with what was represented, due to the fact that the Vendel and Viking Age societies were largely based on oral tradit

On 20 June 1810 Stockholm was rocked by a full-blown and violent riot. A funeral precession for the recently deceased crown prince Charles August turned into a furious riot which eventually developed into an attack on the entire existing social order. The marshal of the realm, Axel von Fersen, was killed and large crowds fought during the rest of the day regular street battles against military and

The discourse on beauty has primarily been focused on the white gaze to prescribe its normative standards. The white gaze conceptualizes the way in which beauty is dwelled on within society: the foisting of Caucasian-looking beauty canons on black women, and the veneration of whiteness as superior. Black bodies are vanguards, either being desired or erased. In literature, the expression “white gaz

År 2018 trädde den nya förvaltningslagen i kraft. Den nya lagen var en revision av 1987 års lag och i samband med lagändringen tillkom en ny be-stämmelse, dröjsmålstalan. Dröjsmålstalan är avsedd att få ett ärende hos en förvaltningsmyndighet avgjort inom fyra veckor när sex månader har passerat från ansökan av den enskilde. Den nya bestämmelsen tillkom bland annat för att Sverige hade ett åtagandIn 2018, the new Swedish Administrative Procedural Act came into force. The new act was a revision of the previous Administrative Procedural Act from 1987. With the 2018’s Administrative Procedural Act came a new provision, the delay action, which made it possible for an individual to de-mand a verdict before an administrative authority within four weeks when six months have passed from the indivi
