Liberalismen är en mångfacetterad politisk riktning som har varit så framgångsrik att den nästan förlorat sin ideologiska skärpa. Vi är alla goda liberaler numera och tror på medborgerliga friheter och individens självbestämmande. Men hur ser liberalismen som ett distinkt politiskt alternativ egentligen ut? I den här boken vaskas de liberala kärnåtagandena fram, de värden som man måste skriva unde
Policies based upon Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) aim to reduce the environmental impacts of products by inducing design changes, by way of an extension of producer’s responsibility. Since the early 1990s, a number of countries have EPR-based policies related to end-of-life management of selected product groups. The incorporation of incentive mechanisms for design change in an EPR program
Den litteraturgenomgång som ligger bakom denna kunskapsöversikt visar att det finns forskningsresultat kring energieffektivisering i hushåll, dvs. framför allt beslut kring beteendeförändringar, både i relation till tillskrivna och i viss mån förvärvade egenskaper, exempelvis via styrmedel. Däremot är kunskap om köpbeslut när det gäller teknisk utrustning som innebär långsiktiga investeringar elle
Just like the first theories in physics viewed atoms as independent and surrounded by a void, our bodies’ microscopic constituents are often portrayed as disconnected from the body as a unified organism, and from its cultural and social contexts. In The Atomized Body the authors examine the relations between culture, society and bioscientific research and show how our bodies’ singularized atoms in
Human beings have wondered about the stars since the dawn of the species. Does life exist out there – intelligent life, even – or are we alone? The quest for life in the universe touches on fundamental hopes and fears. It touches on the essence of what it means to formulate a theory, grasp a concept, and have an imagination. This book traces the history of the science of this area and the developm

This paper investigates patterns of article use in monolingual early child Swedish and in child-directed adult speech. Article omissions in the adult data are found to be more widespread than previously assumed, especially articleless, ‘bare’ singular count nouns (e.g. sten ‘stone’ instead of en sten ‘a stone’) and article omissions in doubly determined nominals (e.g. lilla tummen (little thumb-th
In this chapter, we compare the class composition of four types of anti-austerity demonstrations—Occupy/Indignados, trade union, May Day and other anti-austerity protests—with “new social movement” demonstrations. This allow us to, firstly, scrutinize whether contemporary anti-austerity protests attract more participants from the lower classes—in particular the working class—than from the upper st
We derive a fundamental existence theorem for the equation u(t)'(x,t) - div(vertical bar del(x)u vertical bar(p-2)del(x)u) = 0 with continuous initial and boundary data in a space-tithe cylinder.
After centuries of feudalism, the establishment of the Japanese parliament (the Diet) in 1890 marked a major turning point in Japanese history. Before 1890, politics as a subject of discussion was confined, more or less, to peer groups in Japanese society. In addition, at certain periods, movements promoting the spread of ideas were strictly controlled or even prohibited. Then came the new Diet,
