This thesis examines the history of sovereignty in Central Europe, focusing on the case of Czechoslovakia and its two successor states, the Czech Republic and Slovakia. It covers the period between Czechoslovakia’s founding in 1918 and the so-called European migration “crisis” in 2015-2016. The thesis asks how these states’ sovereignty was conditioned, contested, violated and reproduced through inThis thesis examines the history of sovereignty in Central Europe, focusing on the case of Czechoslovakia and its two successor states, the Czech Republic and Slovakia.

This paper examines the emergence of a new culture of objectivity. Building on and extending Daston and Galison's framework of epistemic virtues, we show how contemporary archaeological practice is developing a form of objectivity that incorporates manipulability, navigability, and relationality without abandoning scientific representation. Drawing on multi-year fieldwork with archaeologists and o

The Iranian economy and politics remain a topic of debate among Marxist scholars. The existing literature mostly splits into two camps: one blames economic struggles primarily on external pressures like imperialist interference and sanctions, while the other downplays external influences and emphasizes the human toll of brutal repression under a neoliberal regime of accumulation. Neither, however,

OBJECTIVE: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a lifelong, early-onset disability characterized by heterogeneous functional impairments and comorbidities that may influence reproductive outcomes. Population-based evidence on having given birth among women with CP remains limited. We investigated differences in having given birth between women with CP and matched controls, and assessed the role of disability-re

BackgroundPhysical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep are three behaviours which occupy the 24-h cycle and interact to influence a multitude of health outcomes. Different terms are currently used to describe these behaviours collectively (e.g., movement behaviours or physical behaviours). The lack of clear and consistent terminology makes it hard to compare, interpret, and build on research

With news media being key players shaping perceptions and reactions to international actors and events, this study investigates the contribution of influential US newspapers to narrating Ukraine’s cultural and historic heritage impacted by the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia. This inquiry addresses the problem of securitization, operationalized as threats to societal and human security (U

Localization is fundamental in many applications, including autonomous driving, robotics, emergency services, and wireless communication systems. The achievable localization accuracy depends on the information provided by the measurements, which is shaped by sensor placement, spatial resolution, sampling rate, synchronization accuracy, calibration, noise levels, and environmental effects such as m

We report the AC electric field-induced directed assembly of 10 mol% crosslinked ionic microgels at various effective volume fractions, investigated using confocal microscopy and small-angle neutron scattering. At low effective volume fractions, in an electric field, the microgels form strings, tubes, and islands of body-centered-tetragonal structures. While tubular structures have previously been

Background: Anorexia nervosa (AN) is characterized by restrictive eating associated with weight and shape concerns, whereas avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is not. Evidence supports an association between AN and autism, and emerging data suggest a similar overlap between ARFID and autism. However, long-term data on autistic eating behaviours in these groups remain scarce. This st

Attachment schemas, shaped by relational experiences in infancy and early childhood, encode core beliefs about the self, close others, and relationship dynamics, guiding expectations of support in times of distress. While extensive research has documented attachment-related biases in cognition, evidence for their neural correlates remains limited. In this ERP study, we examined neural activity lin

Denna antologi samlar forskare och praktiker inom kriminologi och brottsförebyggande arbete kring en gemensam ambition: att utveckla kunskapen om otrygghetens geografi och att belysa frågorna om var, när och varför människor känner sig otrygga. Genom att kombinera olika perspektiv visar antologin att otrygghet inte enbart handlar om rädsla för brott, utan också om hur människor upplever sina vardaThis anthology brings together researchers and practitioners from the fields of criminology and crime prevention in a shared ambition: to advance knowledge about the geographies of fear and unsafety and to address questions of where, when, and why people feel unsafe. By combining diverse perspectives, the anthology demonstrates that unsafety is not only about fear of crime, but also about how peop

BACKGROUND: – Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by excessive remodeling of the distal arterioles and arteries, driven by endothelial cell (EC) apoptosis and uncontrolled mural cell proliferation. Increasing evidence suggests immune dysregulation in PAH, but one crucial part of the immune system, the pulmonary lymphatics, has been largely overlooked. Patients with idiopathic PA

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are abundant negatively charged polysaccharides ubiquitously expressed in mammalian organs, having essential biological functions in development and homeostasis. It has been scarcely reported that GAG structures are changed in aged and diseased human organs; however, an overall landscape of GAGs in individual organs of an animal is missing. Here, we performed an in-depth
