Den statistiska signifikansen av eventuella för området generella trender undersöks. Lokalerna har indelats i två grupper: sjöar (n=13) och centrala Stockholm (n=7). I sjöarna föreligger en statistiskt signifikant minskning av kvicksilver (ca 11%) och bly (ca 17%), samt en viss ökning av kobolt (ca 10%). Σ7-PCB förefaller ha minskat generellt i sjöarna, men minskningarna i Sicklasjön och Råcksta Träsk kan betraktas som avvikande stora. Om statistiska tester genomförs utan en eller båda av dessa lokaler kan ingen generell statistiskt signifikant minskning av PCB påvisas med en signifikansnivå på 95%. I centrala Stockholm föreligger en signifikant minskning av kadmium (ca 25%) och PCB (ca 40%). PAH uppvisar inte någon generell förändring i vare sig sjöarna eller i centrala Stockholm.

Emma Elinor Lundin ABSTRACT This thesis discusses the struggle to increase women’s participation in public and political life by focusing on the activism of women within the Swedish Social Democratic Party (SAP) and the African National Congress of South Africa (ANC) from 1960 until 1994. It argues that internationalism was key to these women’s success, providing them with a source of support and funding as well as a stage to develop policies away from overwhelmingly patriarchal national settings. Creating and steering political trends and discussions in international fora, and bolstered by the approval of others in the international community, the women who feature here gained a foot in the door of power and created environments conducive to their presence, abilities and voices.

  • Carl Eldh Studio Museum Reopens May 25 Charlotte Gyllenhammar
    PRESS RELEASE S E U M F U I F T M Y Y Carl Eldh Studio Museum I O E D A U R T S reopens May 25 S 1 9 H 6 D 3 L – E 2 L 0 R Charlotte Gyllenhammar 1 A 3 May 25-October 27 2013 C 50 For six long years, the Carl Eldh Studio Museum has been closed due to construction work for the Northern Link road in the rock directly below the museum. However, on May 25, this unique, indeed magic, artistic environment, a solitary of the Bellevue Park, throws open its gates again. The original wooden studio with two ateliers and a rotunda was designed by Ragnar Östberg and erected in 1919. Today, this veritable pearl of Nordic classicism, is on the Swedish list of buildings of special architectural or historic interest. Inside the fence is a fl ourishing garden, where it is possible, during opening hours, to enjoy a cup of coffee – a pleasant conclusion to a visit to the magnifi cent localities, which have remained practically as they were when Carl Eldh left them some 60 years ago. Here, you will fi nd over 500 works by Eldh, including many portraits of the celebrities of his day, not least his good friends August Strindberg and Gustaf Fröding. The collection gives the visitor a fascinating peek into a successful sculptor’s working situation during the fi rst part of the 1900s. Here is also ample testimony to the hardships of his years in Paris, summoned, for example, in works like “Grieving Mother” and “At the Night Asylum” (both 1902).
