Capitalist urbanization in the post-neoliberal and de-globalizing world economy: A minor critical engagement with VIP-Urbanism literature
The special issue “Contesting VIP Urbanism” includes timely analytical interventions to contest an increasing tendency to luxury investments in many capitalist cities of the past decades. This essay raises some theoretical and empirical questions concerning the present state of globalization and neoliberalism as two defining characteristics of an era of the global capitalist economy in which both
Kunskapens stora hus : Huvudlinjer i universitetets historia
Universitetet har ett mäktigt och vida utsträckt förflutet. I högtidliga ögonblick brukar det framhållas som en av de samhällsinstitutioner som har den längsta obrutna traditionen. Under seklernas gång har universitetet varit ett centrum för lärdom, vetenskap och högre utbildning, men det har också kunnat anpassa sig efter nya omständigheter och förväntningar. Med ursprung i det medeltida Europa h

Biorefining of brown seaweeds catalyzed through innovative enzyme processes
The current expansion of seaweed farming to North America and Europe can be a cornerstone in a new “blue bioeconomy” in the Northern Hemisphere. In this domain, the focus of R&D efforts is on creating value-added products through new biorefining processes for valorizing the unique polysaccharides of seaweeds. Apart from direct consumption of seaweeds as food—particularly in the Asian cuisine—c
Aristocrats and Refined Peasants : The Concept of Aristocracy in Swedish Historiography
This article investigates the evolution of aristocracy as a concept in Swedish historiography from the early nineteenth century to the present. In the political climate of the early 1800s, aristocracy became an increasingly contested concept, as reflected in ordinary language and the writing of national histories. A scholarly debate over anti-aristocratic prejudice between the historians Anders Fr
Het diskussion och utmanande tystnad : Att lära sig att leda samtal om identitet, sexualitet och relationer
Hösten 2021 infördes ett nytt examensmål för lärarutbildningarna rörande lärarstudenternas förmåga att ”kommunicera och reflektera kring frågor som rör identitet, sexualitet och relationer”. För att våra studenter ska kunna uppfylla detta mål har vi inom historieämnet på ämneslärarutbildningen vid Örebro universitet infört ett obligatoriskt moment i form av en muntlig rollspelsövning. I denna textIn 2021, a new requirement for obtaining a teacher’s certificate was added to the Swedish Higher Education Ordinance. Students must now demonstrate an ability to “communicate and reflect on issues regarding identity, sexuality and relationships”. In a history course within the teacher education programme at Örebro University, we have developed an obligatory roleplay exercise focused on verbal comm
“Doing House” and Making Dynasty : The Ducal Courts of Later Sixteenth-Century Sweden
Defining Dukeship : The Problem of Royal Spares and Dynasty Formation in Sweden, 1556-1622
This book examines how dukeship – the position of being a duke – was defined and negotiated in Sweden between the late 1550s and the early 1620s. The aim is to shed light on how the structural problem of royal spares, with dukes as pillars and perils of hereditary monarchy, influenced politics and the integration process of a ruling house. Through an institutional biography approach and a critical
Dynastisk centralisering i 1560-talets Sverige : "Reservens dilemma" och hertigarnas resning 1568
In a previous issue of Scandia (2019:2), historian Liesbeth Geevers argued that “new dynastic history” has emerged as a field within the discipline of history. This article elaborates on some of her suggestions discussing the fraternal conflicts in Sweden in the 1560s from the perspectives of dynastic centralisation and “the problem of the spare”. The conflicts between Erik XIV and his brothers, D
Monarchical Image-Making in an Age of Revolution : Embodying the ‘Traditional’ and the ‘Modern’ in Swedish Dynastic Ceremonies, c. 1780–1820
This article deals with the image-making of Swedish monarchs in the decades preceding and succeeding the Swedish Revolutionary Year of 1809, a year witnessing the dethronement of a king and the composition of a new constitution. In this era, the monarchies of Europe faced a great challenge in accommodating conflicting ideals of the Ancien Régime and of emergent bourgeois civic society. In dynastic

Köldbryggor : Hur har kunskapen utvecklats i Sverige
Byggnaders energibehov behöver minska i kombination med att energiförsörjningen (el, värme, gas, med mera) behöver fasa ut användandet av fossila bränslen för att motverka den pågående klimatförändringen. Olika strategier kan tillämpas för att utforma och bygga/renovera energieffektiva byggnader. En viktig åtgärd, oavsett strategi, är att minska energibehovet, vilket i Sverige vanligtvis innefa
CRAVEzero : Verktyg som hjälper dig att bygga energieffektivt!
Inom kort ska alla byggnader som uppförs inom EU vara nära-noll-energibyggnader. Det kräver förändring av den rådande byggnads-marknadens strukturer. CRAVEzero fokuserar på beprövade och nya metoder för att minska kostnaderna för nära-nollenergibyggnader i alla livscykelstadier genom att identifiera och eliminera de extra kostnaderna som är relaterade till processer, teknik och byggnadsdrift.
Possible effects of new Swedish ventilation regulations for residential buildings
In March 2023, the Swedish national Board of Housing, Building and Planning (Boverket) published a proposal for new ventilation rates in Sweden. The supply air should by this be calculated based on an equation using the heated floor area as the main input. It is set as optional to use less ventilation flow if this could be sufficient. However, in a questionnaire to Swedish practitioners within the
Microfluidic Stress Device to Decouple the Synergistic Effect of Shear and Interfaces on Antibody Aggregation
Protein denaturation and aggregation resulting from the effects of interfacial stress that can be enhanced by flow and shear stress pose significant challenges in the production of therapeutic proteins such as monoclonal antibodies. The influence of flow on protein stability is closely intertwined with interfacial effects. In this study, we have developed a microfluidic device capable of exposing
