The content of past NDCs have differed greatly depending on which country is submitting the document, especially in how well gender is integrated across actions for NDC implementation. Previous studies show t
This thesis examines an emerging online feminist formation in 2020s China—jinü (radical feminists). The group initially formed around the identification with and practice of 6B4T, and later developed a distinct set of practices and discourses in the Chinese context. Drawing on 12 in-depth interviews and an autoethnographic component, this study explores their practices and attitudes regarding exit

Its industrial past has left a mark on the buildings, now occupied by sophisticated offices for new entrepreneurial businesses (Baeten, 2012; Holgersen, 2014). This shift also has implications for the city's social class structure; this research aims to identify social mechanisms that drive the reconfiguration of social classes in Malmö. The purpo

This bachelor's thesis examines the ambiguous fantastic in four short stories by Dino Buzzati: “Sette piani” (1937), “Il colombre” (1961), “Suicidio al parco” (1966), and “Il cane che ha visto Dio” (1958), drawn from the collections Sessanta racconti and Il colombre e altri cinquanta racconti. Drawing primarily on Tzvetan Todorov's seminal definition of the fantastic — characterised by the
Migratory behaviour explains how individuals or populations perform their migration. In birds this can include nocturnal or diurnal flights, long or short flights as well as low or high flight altitudes and several other behaviours. These behaviours shift throughout the migratory journey and especially when crossing barriers (large geographical areas where birds might have difficulties to find res
This paper examines how handheld fire screens, specifically those depicting operas or plays, can provide a visual narrative through its various visual elements depicted in their motives. The material in question depicts the Swedish opera Thetis och Pelée from 1773 and is today part of the Royal Collections Department at Drottningholm, serving as prime examples of lost and forgotten decorative arts
This essay asks whether it is possible for outsider western cultures to represent sub-Saharan African cultures in a manner where the exhibited, the colonized voices can be heard and expressed. Drawing on representational and postcolonial theory the author analyses how the exhibition of African artifacts in Denmark´s National Museum can influence the visitor. To test his assumptions, he uses divers
Despite international commitments to phase out fossil fuel subsidies, OECD countries exhibit substantial variation in subsidy levels. This study examines how governing party preferences and institutional context jointly shape subsidy policy across 28 OECD countries from 2010 to 2022. Integrating party manifesto data with fossil fuel subsidy levels in cabinet-year panels, the analysis reveals condi
Den 6 november 1881 höll skräddaren August Palm ett tal med titeln ”Hvad vilja socialdemokraterna?”. Platsen var Hotell Stockholm i Malmö och dagen – Gustav Adolfsdagen – var väl vald. Palms tal har betraktats som startskottet för den socialistiska rörelsen i Sverige. Efter talet färdades Palm landet runt för att agitera och organisera. Talet har därmed fått en närmast symbolisk betydelse inte min
Proposals that gesture played a pivotal role in the evolution of language have been highly influential. However, there are many differences between gestural origin theories, including different definitions of 'gesture' itself. We use a cognitive semiotic approach in order to categorize and review these theories. A semiotic system is a combination of signs or signals of particular type, defined by
This thesis investigates internal organizational and technological factors influencing technology adoption in Swedish water utilities. As the sector confronts aging infrastructure and climate change, digital transformation becomes essential, yet risk-averse cultures create barriers to adoption. Through a qualitative multi-case study of five organizations, three DT adopters, one non-adopter, and on
Background: Dyspnea is a common and diagnostically challenging symptom in the emergency department (ED), particularly among older adults with multimorbidity. Traditional risk stratification tools often perform poorly in this population. Galectin-3 (Gal-3), a biomarker of inflammation and fibrosis, may reflect biological aging and resilience, potentially improving early mortality risk assessment.Ob
BACKGROUND: Peptic gastroduodenal stenosis is a rare but disabling condition causing gastric outlet obstruction. This study aimed to evaluate endoscopic balloon dilation in terms of treatment effectiveness, durability, and identify potential early predictors of unsatisfactory outcomes.METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent endoscopic balloon dilation for sympt
INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to adapt the Short Digital Stress Scale (SDSS) into Turkish and to evaluate its psychometric properties in an adult population. Digital stress has become increasingly relevant with the widespread and continuous use of digital technologies, highlighting the need for valid and reliable instruments across cultural contexts.METHODS: A total of 276 adults (72.8% female, 2
Dielectric metasurfaces are the state of the art of functional optical devices with light manipulating capabilities. Metasurfaces are planar devices which makes them highly efficient since they do not suffer from propagation effects. These devices consist of sub-wavelength dielectric structures arranged in a lattice, situated on a substrate of dielectric or metallic material. They have been shown
