Artiklen identificerer de institutionelle mekanismer, som har skabt og vedligeholdt den overraskende høje politiske opbakning, som har kendetegnet den aktivistiske udenrigspolitiks to flagskibe i ...næsten 60 år: de internationale militære operationer og udviklingsbistanden. Den høje og konstante opbakning skyldes to policy-fællesskaber, der inddrager de centrale aktører og anvender standard- og krisestyringsprocedurer i form af ekspertudredninger, kommissioner, flerårige budgetaftaler, konsultationer, politiske forlig og strategier til at skabe kompromiser på de to policy-områder. Den høje politiske opbakning understøttes af manglende folkelig interesse for de to områder og behovet for at fremstå som en troværdig international samarbejdspartner. Nøglen til at forstå den udenrigspolitiske aktivismes fremtidige udvikling ligger derfor ikke i udlandet eller i meningsmålingerne, som det normalt antages. Den ligger på Slotsholmen.
This article identifies the institutional mechanisms that have created and sustained the surprisingly high level of political support that has characterized the two flagships of the activist Danish ...foreign policy for nearly 60 years: international military operations and development assistance. The high support results from two policy communities involving the key actors and using standard- and crisis-management procedures in the form of white papers, commissions, multi-year budget agreements, consultation, political agreements and strategies to build compromises within the two policy-areas. The high level of political support is underpinned by public disinterest in the two areas and the need to establish an international reputation as a reliable partner. The key to understanding the future of Denmark’s activist foreign policy consequently does not lie abroad or in opinion polls as it is generally assumed. It lies in the Danish parliament and the ministries involved in the two policy-areas.
Radon (222Rn) is a radioactive, noble insoluble gas with a half-life of 3.8 days. It belongs to the uranium (238U) decay chain where radon is formed from radium (226Ra). Uranium and radium are built ...into mineral structures or are, for example, adsorbed on the surface of clay minerals, limonite or organic material. When radon is formed by radioactive decay from radium, parts of it enter the pores of rocks and soils and are transported by diffusive or advective forces in the pores. The transport rate depends on the permeability and water content in the pores (Nazaroff 1992).

transmission through the intergalactic medium is the same as its measured escape fraction, an ionized region of size > 1.5 pMpc is needed to explain the high Ly

EW and low velocity offset compared to systemic seen in JADES-GS-z7-LA. Owing to its UV-faintness, we show that it is incapable of single-handedly ionizing a region large enough to explain its Ly

emission. Therefore, we suggest that JADES-GS-z7-LA (and possibly the companion source) may be a part of a larger overdensity, presenting direct evidence of overlapping ionized bubbles at

The Nordic countries lost their 'great power' status in peacekeeping after the end of the cold war. This article asks whether they have succeeded in establishing a new model of cooperation that will ...enable them to regain it. The analysis shows that such a model has been established, but that it remains uncertain whether the Nordics have the collective will to exploit its potential. The article concludes that the Nordics at a minimum would have to establish civil-military rapid reaction deployment packages to reassert themselves as peace operations pace-setters.
Since 1991, a number of European satellites have acquired data of the Earth’s surface for environmental monitoring. In general, a satellite will orbit the Earth in about 1½ hours and it takes 35 days ...before an ERS or ENVISAT satellite repeats radar scanning of the same position. For younger generations of satellites, such as RADARSAT and TERRA, the scanning repeat interval has decreased to 24 and 11 days, respectively, so that hundreds of radar scenes of the same place, produced over the past c. 20 years, are now available.

, which is lower than what has been inferred for both more luminous AGN at a similar redshift and lower redshift AGN. We empirically show that classical emission line ratio diagnostic diagrams cannot be used to distinguish between the primary ionisation source (AGN or star formation) for systems with such low metallicity, though different diagnostic diagrams involving He
