This thesis takes its starting point in the Green Paper on the Modernisation of EU Public Procurement Policy Towards a More Efficient European Procurement Market, in which the Commission made interesting remarks concerning the interlinks between the Union’s 2020 Strategy, public procurement and State aid. Assessing these interlinks have been an objective of this thesis. As for public procurement a
Sammanfattning Grundläggande mänskliga rättigheter är ett växande rättsområde, vilket illustreras av den ökande andelen mål med grund i mänskliga rättigheter vid Europeiska domstolar. Denna utveckling, i kombination med att rättighetskatalogen utvidgas och att de befintliga rättigheterna får en mer extensiv tolkning innebär oundvikligen att även mål där två mänskliga rättigheter ställs emot varandSummary Fundamental rights are an expanding area of law, which is demonstrated by the increasing number of cases in European courts drawing upon fundamental rights provisions. This development in combination with the expanding rights catalogue and a more extensive interpretation given to existing rights inevitably also leads to an increase in conflicts between fundamental rights. This issue has ho
Chronological age is an important part of every person’s identity and in the Western communities it is given that everyone knows how old they are. However, it is not the case for people coming from certain countries in the Middle East where birth records do not exist and where it is highly unusual for someone to celebrate a birthday. Many unaccompanied children from, Middle East apply for asylum i
Problem/Bakgrund: Det råder babyboom bland lesbiska par i Sverige men det finns ytterst lite informationsmaterial som vänder sig till den mamma som inte bär och föder barnet. Det är också relativt tunt med forskning vad det gäller den här gruppens identitetsskapande inom den sociologiska disciplinen. Syfte: Jag vill ta reda på hur den mamma som inte bär barnet eller är gravid, och som identifierar
This thesis is an analysis of Fast-Track Land Reform Programme´s distributive effects on Zimbabwe´s Agricultural Development. The Land Reform was institutionalized in 2001 as a state-based strategy to allocate property rights of land from the population minority to the population majority, which resulted in a bimodal resettlement-design of smallholder and stakeholder land-rights. The empirics has
This thesis is about the scope of protection for the right to strike. Despite the fundamental nature of the right in protecting the dignity of the worker and achieving social justice, the level of protection of the right to strike differs in different jurisdictions around the world claiming detrimental effects of strikes to the society and different stake-holders. Inspired by the longest rail work
Rapporten utgör en undersökning av hur konsumtion påverkar hyresnivån för butikslokaler inom en marknadsplats. Det finns flera olika faktorer som påverkar hyresnivån för butikslokaler, men avgränsning har gjorts till att undersöka omsättning då den utgör en avgörande parameter. För fastighetsägare är det av största vikt att veta hur butiken går försäljningsmässigt för att kunna sätta en marknadsenThe report represents a survey of how consumption affects the level of rents for retail space in a marketplace. The demarcation has been done to examine the revenue when it is a crucial parameter. For property owners, it is vital to know how the shop runs in sales terms in order to set a rent. The report includes an analysis of two municipalities, Lund and Helsingborg, where a survey of two market
Structural variables have been incapable of providing a fully satisfactory answer to why multilateral conferences can fail one year but succeed the next. Scholars focusing on the role of the presidency have been more successful, but a sole focus on the presidency, which comprise one part of an organizational process, might give us a partial understanding of the procedural dynamics in place. The pr
As a part of the GrönNano project at Luleå University of Technology, a sustainable drainage system, composed of infiltration surfaces and a wale,has been subject to hydrological measurements and modeling. The aim of this study was to identify the conditions under which it is possible to model the hydrological processes of that system adequately, using the two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling soft
There is a great interest in trying to pin-point strain specific effects of probiotics on the immune system. The present study compared desirable immunomodulatory properties of newly isolated, novel probiotic strains of different species in a mouse Peyer’s Patch (PP) cell model in vitro, mainly focusing on their ability to affect the population of CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells (Treg), and in incre
Denna uppsats undersöker svenska judars utsatthet, trygghet och upplevda risk. Undersökningen har gjorts genom en kombination av kvantitativ och kvalitativ metod. Syftet med uppsatsen är att presentera deskriptiv statistisk dataanalys och att nyansera och få djupare förståelse för denna genom kvalitativa utsagor. Det empiriska materialet har teoretiserats utifrån en kombination av konventionella t
This thesis studies protection as integral to security. Protection has been used to keep women from the ‘public sphere’ and abused by peacekeepers and patriarchs alike, suggesting that being protected is not synonymous with being safe but can cause violence and exclusion. From that contradiction, I ask how the concepts of protection and security are produced, and to what effects for (gender) equal
The conflict in Ukraine is not only a conflict in a strictly traditional or material sense, in terms of a quest for territory or over military power. Rather, it is a conflict where the battlefield is located in the United Nations Security Council, and the battle is a verbal war between ambassadors and diplomats about conflicting narratives and how the conflict should be defined. In this thesis, a
SOU 2014:40 innebär avdragsbegränsningsregler för finansiella kostnader, bland annat finansiella leasingtransaktioner. Grundtanken bakom detta är att utjämna skillnaderna i den skattemässiga behandlingen av eget och lånat kapital. Ett ytterligare skäl till att avskaffa avdragsrätten för räntor är att det har förekommit omfattande skatteplanering med ränteavdrag som har visat sig svår att motverka.If the proposed changes in SOU 2014:40 are implemented it will impose limitations on deductions for ”financial expenses”. This process will mean limitations for deductions related to financial leasing. The idea behind this is to lessen the difference that exists between the taxation of equity and borrowed capital. Another reason behind the proposed changes is the large extent to which the current
Under det senaste decenniet har terroristverksamheten blivit allt mer brutal. Många forskare inom ämnet menar att terrorismen har förändrat karaktär och att man därför kan dela upp terrorism som ny respektive gammal. Detta anser vi vara intressant, då terrorismen i allt större grad påverkar världen och dess befolkning. I vår studie vill vi pröva denna teori om ny och gammal terrorism genom att bes
Sammanfattning Surrogatmoderskap är inte är tillåtet i Sverige och har på senare tid blivit en mycket omdebatterad och högst aktuell fråga. Till följd av förändrade uppfattningar och föreställningar i samhället utreds nu huruvida surrogatmoderskap kan införas som en metod för att avhjälpa ofrivillig barnlöshet. En viktig aspekt på området är att hänsyn måste tas till det blivande barnet. BedömningSummary In Sweden gestational surrogacy is not allowed and has recently become a very controversial and highly topical issue. Due the changing perceptions and beliefs in society, it is now being investigated whether surrogacy can be introduced as a method to overcome involuntary childlessness. An important aspect of consideration must be to the prospective child. In assessing if gestational surrog
Förhandlingsoffentligheten gäller som huvudregel för svenska domstolar enligt 2 kap. 11 § RF samt i enlighet med vad som gäller enligt art. 6.1 EKMR angående rätten till en rättvis rättegång. Inskränkningar av förhandlingsoffentligheten får göras utifrån förutsättningarna i 5 kap. 1 § RB och 16 § FPL om de särskilda sekretessbestämmelser som finns uppställda i OSL är tillämpliga. Vad jag undersökePublic attendance is the general rule for hearings in the Swedish courts accordingly to the Swedish constitution and art. 6.1 ECHR (European Convention on Human Rights) which states the right to a fair trial. Under certain statutory conditions there are possibilities for holding hearings in camera, even though this is a restriction of the principle of public attendance. In the general courts the
On May 2nd 2014 in Odessa a tragic incident occurred between pro-Ukrainian activists and pro-Russian activists which claimed around 40 lives. This was perceived by some officials as the beginning of a war, since it reflected the great instability and hostilities in Ukraine. Russian, Ukrainian and American officials were quick to comment the situation in favor their own side in order to gain suppor
This thesis is a study in historical and contemporary swedish industrial relations, where the Industriavtal – a framework agreement on industrial development binding trade unions and employer organizations - heavily influences wages and labour relations. Focus is on relations in the swedish manufacturing and export industry during the 2010s, and how the Industriavtal leads to cooperation and confl
