Given the fact that rape is difficult to prove in court and trials primarily are based on the defendant’s word against the plaintiff’s, it becomes highly significant to study the narratives about rape presented in criminal trials. This thesis is an ethnographic-inspired study conduct-ed in Danish courts from January to May 2023. Observations of court proceedings during rape trials were conducted i

Har du någonsin funderat på varför såpbubblor tar den form de gör? Mer specifikt, tänk dig att du doppar ner ett böjbart ihopknutet snöre i såpa så att ett tunnt lager formas. Om du håller snöret i en cirkel så kommer cirkeln fyllas, det är kanske inget konstigt, men vad händer med såpan om du börjar böja på snöret? Den yta som bildas är ett exempel på vad som i matematiken kallas för en minimal yWe introduce the basic theory of currents as continuous linear functionals on compactly supported smooth differential forms. By using slicing and metric-space-valued functions of bounded variation, we prove that the subspace of integer-multiplicity rectifiable currents with locally finite mass enjoy a certain sequential compactness property. This compactness theorem is then used to prove the exist

This study investigates the policy interpretations of development as a concept in the Czech international development cooperation. The rapid transitional experience of countries in Central and Eastern Europe from aid recipient to aid donor claims to have established a unique type of donor, distinct from other major traditional donors, specifically in regard to their approaches to development. Furt

In this thesis, two emerging non-volatile memories, being the resistive random access memory and a ferroelectric capacitor were characterized at cryogenic temperatures. This was carried out due to the demand for non-volatile CMOS compatible cryogenic memories for quantum computing applications. Both devices exhibit good switching characteristics, endurance >10^7 cycles and multilevel capability. M

Under de senaste åren har transrättighetsrörelsen fått ökad spridning och uppmärksamhet både inom den queera rörelsen och i västvärlden och i media överlag. Debatter om att implementera ett tredje juridiskt kön för de personer som inte vill vara registrerade som man eller kvinna, och för personer födda med tvetydiga primära eller sekundära könsorgan, har ökat och nya policys implementeras i oIn recent years, the trans rights movement has gained a lot of traction and publicity both inside the queer movement and in western society and media at large. Debates on implementing a third legal gender for people who wish to not be registered as male or female, and for people born with ambiguous sex characteristics, have increased and new policies are being implemented in different countrie

This paper aims to contribute to wider discussions within the discipline of anthropology regarding the social and material significance of backpackers’ backpacks. Mainly, this paper examines how backpacks help construct backpacking identity and shape backpackers’ journeys and experiences. To gain insight into these inquiries this paper adopts a qualitative research approach, specifically eight sem

De prekära arbetsförhållandena som upplevs av frilansmusiker i Sverige påverkar många olika aspekter av deras liv. För att skydda dessa arbetstagare från exploatering och osäkerhet samt öka jämställdheten på arbetsmarknaden finns arbetsrättsliga regler formulerade i svensk lagstiftning och i det branschspecifika kollektivavtalet. I denna kvalitativa intervjustudie undersöks frilansmusikers uppleve

The Swedish National Archives have a national overview of the archive sector of Sweden’s public authorities and the archive ordinance gives the National Archives mandate to regulate and supervise the management of the archives, their compliance with the rules via auditing inspections, and to advise on archive matters. Due to the immense digitalization of public sector information in Sweden, archiv

In Bangladesh Regardless of professional status, women are expected to do housework. Bangladesh's prevalent religious values a

The communal bath has a long and complex history. While the bath in modern times is used primarily for practical and hygienic reasons, communal bathing has been a vital aspect of many cultures throughout history, serving not only as a means of hygiene but also as social and therapeutical space, promoting exchange of ideas, health and general well-being. In the context of informal settlements, ac

Background and objectives: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common type of leukemia in adults with relatively high recurrence. Interferon alpha (IFNa) is a type I interferon and it has been shown to have a therapeutic effect on myeloid malignancies in clinical research especially to prevent potentially risky AML recurrence after chemotherapy. Due to the molecular heterogeneity of the disea

Capturing how organizations build and maintain long-term and mutual beneficial relationships with influencers is an urgent quest by both, communication practitioners and scholars. In the ever-evolving context of digitalization, navigating influencer communication remains to be a major challenge, as the concept of an authentic partnership is constantly adapting in the fast-paced social media realm.

Det här är ett arbetet som rör sig i gränsland. Det berör platsen där sociologi och psykologi möts, och utforskar därifrån gränsen som löper mellan normalitet och abnormalitet. I fokus står borderline personlighetssyndrom, en psykiatrisk diagnos som karaktäriseras av instabilitet i affekt, relationer och identitet. Diagnosen diskuteras här huvudsakligen utifrån en teori om att problematiken huvuds
