  1. 11. The Urban Tapestry : Essays on the Relationship Between Social Networks and Residential Segregation

    Författare :Laura Fürsich; Maria Brandén; Benjamin Jarvis; Sarah Valdez; Peter Rich; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Social networks; Segregation; Agent-based modeling; Social infrastructure; Residential choice; Analytical sociology; Register data;

    Sammanfattning : Dominant explanations of segregation argue that patterns of spatial residential sorting are shaped by the aggregation of individual residential choices, guided by discrimination, differences in resources, and preference-based explanations of neighborhood ethnic composition. However, research on social networks indicates that social influence can serve as a driver of collective outcomes that result in social organization. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Den sociala differentieringens retorik och gestaltning : Kritiska perspektiv på funktionalistisk förorts- och bostadsplanering i Stockholm från 1900-talets mitt

    Författare :Christian Björk; Hans Hayden; Helena Kåberg; Martin Rörby; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Swedish welfare state; Stockholm; Functionalism; Suburban planning; City planning; Urban Policy; Differentiation; Segregation; Spatial separation; Housing planning; Interior decoration; Upper middle-class; Private sphere; Public sphere; Gender coded rooms; Consumption; konstvetenskap; Art History;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, I analys suburb- and housing planning and interior decoration carried out primarily in Stockholm between the 1930s and the 1950s. Functionalism, the overall concept of the period, has perhaps been interpreted in terms of ideological concepts, interpreted as "democratic" and as a progressive dividing line between the past and the future.

  5. 14. On chaperone co-operation in temporal and spatial protein quality control

    Författare :Rebecca Andersson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Molecular chaperones; Heat shock proteins; Hsp70 chaperones; Proteostasis; Ageing; Asymmetric damage segregation; Peroxiredoxins; Spatial protein quality control;

    Sammanfattning : In order for a protein to be able to function correctly it needs to adopt its proper fold. Because of this, protein quality control (PQC) is vital at every level of cellular function. The central protein in PQC networks across all kingdoms of life are the Hsp70 molecular chaperones.

However, the existing research has tended to overlook those aspects of the segregation process that lie beyond the choice of the individual. LÄS MER
