The eighteenth century marks a watershed in European intellectual history. It witnessed the development of many civil rights ideas that were prerequisites for the emergence of modern political systems. One principle that appears to be supported by numerous empirical examples is that evolving political pluralism fostered the right to express one’s views with a certain degree of freedom. This articl
Swedish architectural modernism is intimately tied to thedevelopment of the welfare state, where the roles and work ofarchitects largely followed governmental building policies. Thepolitical and economical crisis of the late 1960s and 1970swas particularly devastating for Swedish architecture as theshortcomings of the welfare state were partly blamed on thearchitecture profession. This paper is a
The aim of this study is to investigate the short term change regarding deprivation of liberty of children in Sweden. There has been media coverage on the subject since adolescents are committing grave crimes in Sweden and the politicians want to change how the children are deprived of their liberty. The study compares legislation from 2023, 2024 and a proposed legislation that could take effect i
Background: Amplification of 1q (amp(1q); ≥4 1q copies) has repeatedly been reported to predict a worse outcome in multiple myeloma (MM), whereas the impact of gain of 1q (gain(1q); three 1q copies) is less clear. Methods: We investigated survival of MM in relation to amp(1q) and gain(1q) by retrospectively analysing 346 consecutively newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) patients. Of these, 62 (18%) had amp(

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Klimatväxlingarna under sista istiden har alltid varit en debattfråga. Denna istids kallaste period inträffade för cirka 20.000 år sedan och benämns "istidsmaximum". Då var havsytan hundratjugo meter lägre än idag och det mesta vattnet var bundet i inlandsisarna. Klimatväxlingar försöker dagens kvartärgeologer att fastställa med en så bra tidsutlösningHigh-resolution analyses of sediments from two sites in Blekinge, south-eastern Sweden (the former Lake Togölen and Lake Bredsjön), were evaluated in order to establish the pollenstratigraphical position of the second and final drainage of the Baltic Ice Lake in relation to the Younger Dryas-Preboreal pollen zone transition. Remanent magnetisation and magnetic susceptibility were used to correlate
The time and temperature dependent dynamic modulus of asphalt concrete is a key parameter to modern pavement design and to pavement quality. However, accurate measurements of the complex modulus through conventional cyclic testing are expensive regarding both time and costs. Novel test methods based on modal analysis facilitate economic, accurate and faster determination of linear viscoelastic mat
OBJECTIVE: To explore the characteristics and outcome of patients after stroke admitted to early supported discharge (ESD) services, and to investigate changes over time. STUDY POPULATIONS: Patients admitted between June 1997 and September 1998 and participating in a follow-up study (n = 87) and all patients admitted in 2005-06 (n = 226). Background populations: All stroke cases in Malmö alive 3 m
The equations of motion for a beam are derived from the three-dimensional continuum mechanical point of view. The kinematics involve bending, torsion and shearing as well as cross-sectional displacements. The transplacement of the beam from an arbitrary curved reference placement is considered. For slender beams so called tubular coordinates may be used as global coordinates in the reference place
Recurrent disease after operation for colorectal carcinoma is a major problem for patients and for their doctors. Scientific evidence for guidelines is poor. It appears that intensive surveillance increases survival but we do not know which parameters in surveillance are important for this result.
Wear in forming tools and contact problems between sheet-metal and tool-material are common problems in manufacturing industries and sheet-metal-parts production. In this paper recent tool material experiences are presented. Quantitative determination of wear has been performed using micro hardness indentions made on the tool surface prior to pressings and thereafter measured. Wear tests are perfo
The paper examines the reception of and revisions made to the teachings of the Italian astrologer-monk Placido de Titi (1603 – 1668) in Protestant England following the decline of astrology during the 18th century, particularly as found in the writings of John Worsdale (1766 – c. 1826), whose role in the emergence of modern astrology is to a certain extent reappraised, and of his contemporary crit
The article engages in the critical debates over the utopian aspects of the Western heritage that took place in the wake of the Second World War. A striking feature of these debates is how thinkers from the entire political spectra – from Georg Lukács to Isaiah Berlin and Eric Voegelin – made very similar analyses, although they draw quite different conclusions. Hence all of them blamed German Rom
