Review of the English translation of the novel Die Ästhetik des Widerstands by German-Swedish writer Peter Weiss (1916 - 1982) in connection with the problems of the avant-garde as critical practice (the overall theme of this issue of the journal Reconstruction which is concluded by the review in question).

The article explores issues concerning the reconfiguration of human and animal bodies in modern biotechnology. The examples are based on xenotransplantation: Transplantation of cells, tissue and organs from animals to humans. Three thematic issues that emerged from xenotransplantation research in Sweden in the 1990s and early 2000s are examined in the article. The first issue concerns how the pig

Using a pulsed dye laser, acting on a collimated atomic beam, the isotope shifts between the dysprosium isotopes 164, 162, and 160 were measured with high precision in three lines, , and 5652 Å.

Recent studies have suggested that regeneration of non-haematopoietic cell lineages can occur through heterotypic cell fusion with haematopoietic cells of the myeloid lineage. Here we show that lymphocytes also form heterotypic-fusion hybrids with cardiomyocytes, skeletal muscle, hepatocytes and Purkinje neurons. However, through lineage fate-mapping we demonstrate that such in vivo fusion of lymp

Millbourn använder Alice Millers begrepp "den svarta pedagogiken" för att beskriva den pedagogiska tradition som den socialdemokartiska rörelsens elitskikt föll in i. Den svarta pedagogiken är auktoritär och skapar skuldkänslor hos barnet. Dess alternativ, en icke-auktoritär pedagogik som har en grundmurad tro på barnets egen förmåga, menar Millbourn kan beskriva arbetarnas självverksamheter såsom

The theoretical stress-strain relation in the compression zone of a concrete beam is determined by means of an approximate application of a model with strain softening and localization, i.e. with the descending branch described as a stress-deformation relation instead of a stress-strain relation. The results in a stress-strain relation for the compression zone, which is strongly dependent on the d

This dissertation uses longitudinal micro-data from Stockholm between 1878 and 1926 to study the causes and consequences of the fertility transition and to examine the development of living standards inequality during industrialization. Although both processes have received much interest from researchers, we know relatively little of how either one played out among individuals in urban areas, whic

Flexgrid technology has recently been presented as the most promising option for upgrading the currently operating fixed grid optical networks and extending their capacity to be able to deal with the massive traffic volumes forecast for the next decade. Although the current traffic is successfully supported on fixed grid networks, flexgrid technology brings features that are not offered by the fix
