Purpose – Understanding the Nobel Prize as a ‘true’ heritage brand in a networked situation and its management challenges, especially regarding identity and reputation.Methodology – The Nobel Prize serves as an in-depth case study and is analysed within an extended corporate brand identity framework that incorporates reputation.Findings – The Nobel Prize is a ‘true’ corporate heritage brand (in th

The adsorption behavior of macromolecular emulsifiers is important in the understanding of their functionality. Understanding of the adsorption behavior can ultimately enable us to control emulsion properties. Adsorption during emulsification differs from many adsorption processes as the interface at which adsorption occurs is created in parallel with the adsorption. In this thesis two different m

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den globala energianvändningen är idag större än någonsin. Faktum är att den, i takt med världens ständiga utveckling, kommer att fortsätta öka många år framöver. Sättet som energi har producerats på historiskt används dessutom i allra högsta grad fortfarande idag och innebär daglig förbränning av stora mängder organiskt material. Detta resulterar i en ökad koncentratioThis dissertation covers studies of excited state processes in two types of solar energy materials: alternating polyfluorene polymers and their blends with fullerenes in the active layer of plastic solar cells, and bis-tridentate RuII-polypyridyl complexes to be used as sensitizer in systems for artificial photosynthesis. The polymer:fullerene blends were studied by transient absorption and time-

The properties of embedded V2-clauses in Mainland Scandinavian, as opposed to non-V2 clauses, have been a topic of much debate recently. This paper defends the view that all V2 clauses have illocutionary force, which for a declarative clause means that it is asserted. First clauses embedded under the predicate types identified by Hooper & Thompson (1973) are discussed, and it is shown that the

Socio-legal researchers increasingly recognise the need to employ a wide variety of methods in studying law and legal phenomena, and the need to be informed by an understanding of debates about theory and method in mainstream social science. The papers in this volume illustrate how a range of topics, including EU law, ombudsman, judges, lawyers, Shariah Councils and the quality assurance industry

This study explores the meaning of the two expressions 'times of refreshing' and 'time to restore everything' in Acts 3:19.21. These two eschatological motifs appear in a speech that the apostle Peter made, according to Luke's presentation, in the Jerusalem temple in the beginning of the 30s. The study is historical, and the meaning of the two expressions is sought in the contemporary world. It i

Uppsatsen behandlar Viktor Rydbergs Den siste athenaren från 1858. Rydbergs roll som samhällsdebattör relateras till hans romanskrivande.

Popular Abstract in Swedish För att få en uppfattning om hur framtida miljöförändringar kommer att påverkar vårt samhälle är det viktigt att studera eventuella samband mellan migration, samhälle och miljö. Klimatförändringar väntas inom en snar framtid leda till stora befolkningsförflyttningar till följd av exempelvis ökad stormfrekvens, torka, havsnivåhöjning och vattenbrist. Migration kan å andrThe link between population mobility and environmental change is fundamental for our understanding of how future global environmental changes will affect our societies, and also how the increased mobility will change our role in the Earth system. Climate change has been predicted as a major cause of human migration, both voluntary and forced, through for example increased storm and drought frequen

No abstract - but a conclusion: "Taking my point of departure in classical embodiment theories stemming from the phenomenological tradition, I have discussed tertiary embodiment, characteristic of certain types of signs, such as pictures and writing, as a particular stage of development in the phylogeny and ontogeny of human beings. In so doing, I have singled out the sign function as an indirect

This text is an analysis of the reception of Steven Spielberg´s film Schindler´s List in the Czech Republic. Being a Sudeten German, Oskar Schindler, the hero of the film and the rescuer of hundreds of Jews from the Nazi destruction machinery, made Czechs aware not only or primarily of the atrocities of the Holocaust, but of several Czech-German troublespots of the past, including those related to

An introduction to the Swedish translation of St. Augustine's De doctrina christiana.

Healthcare systems today are undergoing major restructuring. From the patient’s perspective, expectations focusing on high quality treatments for most common diseases – such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, and others – have gone unmet in most countries throughout the world. Today, a number of protein expression and analysis platforms is available, which ca

Popular Abstract in Swedish I detta doktorandprojekt har ett antal nya syntesmetoder utvecklats och studerats. En stor del av avhandlingen fokuserar kring införandet av en allylisk grupp i aromatiska föreningar. Allylaromatiska substanser är utmärkta startmaterial i syntesen av föreningar avsedda att användas som kontrastmedel för röntgen. Ett stort antal allylaromatiska substanser med varierande A new method for allylation of aromatic systems has been developed. A number of arylamines were converted via diazotization to the corresponding allylaromatic compounds using tert-butyl nitrite and an excess of allylic bromides with complete regioselectivity. Electron-withdrawing groups, in the aromatic moiety, were necessary to obtain good yields. The convenient experimental procedure allowed the
