  4. 3. Assessing the Transformative Potential of a Sociocracy-Informed Climate Change Adaptation Lab in Lund, Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Rory Daniel Antoniuk; Spilios Iliopoulos; [2023]
    Keywords : Climate change; climate change adaptation; sociocracy; transformational change; transformative change; power; power cube; ladder of participation; complexity; systems; public participation; climate change adaptation lab; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Effective climate change adaptation necessitates enhanced public participation as there is a need for the voice of people to be meaningfully incorporated to facilitate transformational adaptation, contend with complexity, and avoid maladaptation. Despite this, widespread participation in climate change adaptation governance in Global North countries like Sweden is currently restricted by rigid power dynamics, even in spaces that purport to be transformationally participatory.

  6. 5. Gravitational Decoherence in Macroscopic Quantum Systems

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : Niklas Engelhardt Önne; [2023]
    Keywords : decoherence; gravitational decoherence; quantum mechanics; quantum physics; macroscopic quantum mechanics; macroscopic quantum physics; gravity; general relativity; gravitational time dilation; quantum-to-classical transition; nonrelativistic quantum mechanics; quantum gravity; dekoherens; gravitationell dekoherens; kvantmekanik; kvantfysik; makroskopisk kvantmekanik; makroskopisk kvantfysik; gravitation; allmän relativitetsteori; gravitationell tidsdilatation; övergången från kvantfysik till klassisk fysik; ickerelativistisk kvantmekanik; kvantgravitation;

    Abstract : The problem of how quantum mechanics gives rise to classicality has been debated for more than a century. A commonly proposed solution is decoherence, i.e. the gradual decay of superpositions in open quantum systems due to their inevitable interaction with their environment. READ MORE
