Abstract: This thesis examines the non-dominant and self-subversive aspects of visuality in Roberto Bolaño’s 2666 through the lens of the philosophical discussion on representation, particularly in its post-structuralist context. The present research is grounded in the conviction that 2666 embodies the 20th-century crisis of representation and approaches the novel through an analysis of different

Brottsbekämpande myndigheter använder sig ibland av okonventionella utredningsmetoder för att tillmötesgå en alltmer komplex brottslighet. Ett exempel på en sådan metod är användningen av provokativa åtgärder, som innefattar hemliga utredningsåtgärder eller brottsprovokationer. Ur ett effektivitetsperspektiv är det obestridligt att tendenser i brottsutvecklingen nödvändiggör mer sofistikerade arbeLaw enforcement authorities occasionally employ unconventional investigative techniques in response to increasingly complex forms of criminality. One such technique is the use of covert and provocative measures, including undercover operations and police incitement. From one standpoint of effectiveness, it is indisputable that developments in criminal activity necessitate increasingly sophisticate

The Romakasiddhānta is a quite special Hindu luni-solar canon being the only one using Metonic intercalation and implementing a tropical solar year. As the name suggests it has a Hellenistic origin. The known facts about the canon are scanty but in spite of this it is possible to draw some conclusions from them. A hypothetical calendar based on its known characterist

We investigate the golden numbers on the calendar disk of the astronomical clock in Lund, Sweden. Using methods of internal consistency we find printing errors and locate several golden numbers misplaced by one day. However, from the available data it is not possible to determine the principles that were used for calculation of the location of these golden numbers when the calendar disk was resto

The shortest light pulses produced to date are of the order of a few tens of attoseconds, with central frequencies in the extreme UV range and bandwidths exceeding tens of electronvolts. They are often produced as a train of pulses separated by half the driving laser period, leading in the frequency domain to a spectrum of high, odd-order harmonics. As light pulses become shorter and more spectral

Directed colloidal self-assembly at fluid interfaces can have a large impact in the fields of nanotechnology, materials, and biomedical sciences. The ability to control interfacial self-assembly relies on the fine interplay between bulk and surface interactions. Here, we investigate the interfacial assembly of thermoresponsive microgels and lipogels at the surface of giant unilamellar vesicles (GU

The purpose of this thesis has been to describe whether aspects on gender equality is addressed in the codes of conduct of multinational corporations.
