This thesis consists of three self-contained papers that study the role of culture in economics by examining how culture shapes responses to policies, how public interventions influence cultural identity, and how cultural persistence affects economic behavior and policy outcomes. The first chapter examines the political consequences of symbolic changes to public space in Spain, focusing on the ren
Many forms of small-size radars suffer from minor clock oscillations due to crystalline impurities in their internal clocks, causing time-varying clock offsets between the transmitter and the receivers. This offset causes a bias and an increased variance in the positioning of close-range targets, limiting the achievable accuracy well beyond the expected estimation limitations. Furthermore, an appr
The article explores how the pursuit of sustainability in screen media production intersects with incentivized industry mobility within the Baltic Sea region. It illuminates an under-researched area of screen mobility by focusing on Swedish mobile productions benefitting from the tax incentive scheme in Lithuania. The authors conceptualize recent tendencies in screen mobility as the Nordic–Baltic
The ALICE Collaboration reports measurements of the large relative transverse momentum (kT) component of jet substructure in pp and Pb-Pb collisions at center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair sNN=5.02 TeV. Enhancement in the yield of such large-kT emissions in head-on Pb-Pb collisions is predicted to arise from partonic scattering with quasiparticles of the quark-gluon plasma. The analysis utilizes
This paper explores the emergence and role of rural capitalists in colonial Sub-Saharan Africa by comparing three peasant-based economies: Bechuanaland, the Gold Coast and Tanganyika. Using social tables, we estimate the population and income shares of better earning agricultural producers and assess their impact on rural inequality and development. We find that rural capitalists in each colony ad
Localizer orientation can significantly impact the automatic tube-current modulation (ATCM) in computed tomography (CT). The purpose of this study was to introduce a methodology for assessing ATCM consistency and to compare the outcomes in image noise and radiation dose between a single anterior–posterior (AP) localizer and a combination of lateral and AP (LAT + AP) localizers. A total of 299 pros
Here we report an investigation of ultrathin tin oxide films on Pt3Sn(111) using low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM), microspot low-energy electron diffraction (μ-LEED), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD), and high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Oxidation at ∼390–410 °C produces triangular, two-dimensional oxide islands that nucleate rapidly
The most prevailing hypothesis regarding mechanisms behind specific language impairment today is the hypothesis of general limitations of processing capacity. Such an hypothesis can hardly be tested by available language assessment tools, especially not by instruments in use for clinical assessment of the lexical-semantic domain in children. Reduced naming speed is by some researchers considered a
Additive manufacturing (AM) makes it feasible to realise complex lattice structuresthat provide structural flexibility through engineered structural design rather thanrelying solely on material softness. Across sectors such as furniture, healthcare,protective equipment, and robotics, such flexibility is a core functional requirement,that influences comfort, fit, impact response, lightweighting, an
Background:Preparing for the end of life is believed to help mitigate emotional suffering for both patients and their caregivers. However, empirical evidence on the emotional benefits of feeling prepared for death remains limited.Aim:This study uses data from the international iLIVE project to examine how perceived end-of-life preparedness is associated with emotional suffering among patients and
With the artistic research project Costume Dramaturgies we investigate the dramaturgy that emerges when performance takes an unconventional starting point: a costume – a thing.This one year project is a continuation of the artistic research project Costume Agency (2018–2023), with a deepened focus on dramaturgy.By approaching dramaturgy as an assembly of things, we shift perspective from the human

Performance Walk with Interconnected BodiesIn Community Walk, it is the garments that set the framework. In pairs, you move out into the landscape—physically connected by a specially designed costume created by the playful artist Charlotte Østergaard. She guides you in exploring and challenging the costume together.The costume creates a new relation between you, shaping how you move forward. You f
For decades, scholars have debated the decline in political trust as both an indicator and a driver of democratic crisis and civic disengagement. The focus of this previous research has been primarily on how political trust can be bolstered or maintained. Drawing on research from interpersonal and organizational mutual trust, we argue, however, that political trust is not only influenced by govern
This keynote explores the borderlands of costume through the “corpo colectivo” (collective body) experiments (Lepecki 2017) initiated by Brazilian artist Lygia Clark (1920–1988) in the 1970s and Dutch textile artist Maria Blaisse’s (born 1944) ‘study of form and material possibilities’ (Marshall 2024, 144). These practices challenge conventional notions of costume offering ways to rethink costume
Craft-performance at the opening of the exhibition Becomings is a performative exploration of the Danish concept fællesskabelse—a term that combines community and creation to describe processes in which something new emerges through being and making together. Unlike co-creation, where participants contribute predefined parts to a shared task, fællesskabelse focuses on the forming of the community
