  1. 1. Central Politics and Local Peacemaking : The Conditions for Peace after Communal Conflict

    Författare :Emma Elfversson; Kristine Höglund; Hanne Fjelde; Leonardo R. Arriola; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; communal conflict; local conflict; non-state conflict; land conflict; conflict resolution; mediation; conflict management; intervention; ethnic politics; political bias; governance; sub-Saharan Africa; Kenya; Peace and Conflict Research; Freds- och konfliktforskning;

    Sammanfattning : Under what conditions can peace be established after violent communal conflict? This question has received limited research attention to date, despite the fact that communal conflicts kill thousands of people each year and often severely disrupt local livelihoods. This dissertation analyzes how political dynamics affect prospects for peace after communal conflict. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Combination of space-geodetic techniques in the era of VGOS and multi-GNSS

    Författare :Periklis Diamantidis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Local Ties; EOP; Reference Systems; GNSS; VLBI; Combination on the Observation Level; multi-GNSS; Space Geodesy; VGOS;

    Sammanfattning : The definition and maintenance of accurate and stable Earth-fixed and inertial reference frames is crucial in studying, among else, geophysical and geodynamical phenomena, precise positioning, and space navigation. The tools used to this end are space-geodetic techniques, like e.g. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Exploring Strategies for the Combination of Multiple Space-geodetic Techniques

    Författare :Periklis Diamantidis; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Space Geodesy; GNSS; Combination on the Observation Level; EOP; Reference Systems; VLBI; Local Ties;

    Sammanfattning : Space-geodetic techniques are based on signal acquisition from extraterrestrial radio sources that can be used to infer geodetic positioning and define Earth-fixed and inertial reference systems. These techniques, which include Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) and Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) among others, exhibit different strengths and weaknesses in recovering parameters of interest.

  7. 5. The Political Participation of the Poor: Local Social Context and the Impact of Social Ties on the Political Engagement of Poor Individuals

    Författare :Prisca Jöst; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Political Participation; Poverty; Social Ties; Social Context; Voting;

    Sammanfattning : Research on political participation finds that poor citizens engage less in politics than wealthy citizens. Yet, recent survey evidence also suggests that there is crucial variation in the poor’s level of engagement within the same country and across neighborhoods and villages. LÄS MER
