It describes how the sociospatial entanglement of the post-soviet region that is today known as Russia's ‘near abroad’ intersects with questions about history, identity
China, as a huge and promising market, has always been largely exposed to and influenced by the Japanese and Korean idol industries. With various attempts trying to adopt the transnational experienced idol production within the challenging Chinese context, numerous reality television talent shows had been introduced in the past few years. After the very first boy group talent show, Idol Producer (
Nyproducerade byggnader idag får oftast en energiberäkning gjord i projekteringsfasen för att fastställa att byggnaden klarar de krav som ställs. Nyproducerade byggnader ska även sedan 2006 energideklareras för att visa att byggnaden endast kräver så mycket energi som den projekterades för. I detta ingår att redovisa hur mycket energi byggnaden har använt per år. Energiberäkningarna för 19 byggnadNewly produced buildings in Sweden are required to calculate the predicted energy usage of the building and this is preferably done in the early stages of the planning stage. New buildings are also since 2006 in Sweden required to have an energy performance declaration done to show that the building requires no more energy to function than it was planned to. The predicted energy usage of 19 buildi
This thesis concerns the refugee debate in Denmark. The study is a comparative case study in order to examine different aspects of the refugee debate. The aim of the study is to investigate the different approaches with focus on the reactions to the movement of refugees in 2015 and the war in Ukraine in 2022. The study aims to highlight how the refugees are portrayed in the Danish debate and explo
This research investigates short-term management fixation to meet performance thresholds through real earnings management. Specifically, we examine management decision-making regarding the trade-off between short-term profitability and R&D’s long-term benefits in Nordic firms. Building on established economic and institutional frameworks, along with the most relevant studies in the field, this
Political participation among Japanese youth has been on a steady decline since the peak of the major activist and protest movements of the 60s and 70s. Legislation, restrictions, and social realities have also contributed to the strained relationship between youth and politics. The past few decades have been characterized by mistrust and dishonesty as a result, affecting youths’ willingness to pa
For every cosmetic product a consumer buys, a new packaging (often plastic) is purchased together with it. Every year, this single-use behavior stands for 120 billion units of cosmetic packaging. For Europe alone, this is the equivalent of 5 packed Avicii Arenas. There is also a problem in the transparency of eco-friendly products today, where the recyclable packaging still ends up in lan
Women’s football is in comparison to men’s football experiencing a fall behind. The gap between men’s and women’s football is visible reviewing and comparing viewers statistics, revenue generated, media attention and players salary. Governing bodies of association football, football clubs and corporate actors have in previous years started to actively invest in women’s football to equalize the gap
The Swedish population is distinguished by having a high level of trust in the police. This high trust is partly dependent on the numerous everyday interactions between police officers and the public. The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the understanding of how Swedish police officers understand these interactions in relation to the existing legal framework concerning police behaviour.
The main purpose of this study was to identify an unknown spice collected from an old shipwreck (Gribshunden). This study was demanding as we were dealing with an aged sample being under water for around 500 years. It is quite probable that many components in our sample have undergone changes or washed away by water, and as a consequence decreased in concentration. However, the strongest guess, ju
Environmental tax measures have the potential to be great tools for achieving sustainable development goals in the EU. The different dimensions of sustainability need to be balanced in order to achieve sustainable development goals. In the EU, tax law has been focussed too much on the economic dimension, and too little on the environmental dimension, which could lead to environmental sustainabilit
Over the last decade, 1.8 billion people worldwide have been affected by disasters triggered by natural hazards and 740 000 lives have been lost. Due to climate change, these numbers are predicted to rise dramatically in the upcoming years. In disaster prone areas, remote communities and lower income countries are disproportionately affected and often lack the resources to prepare. Locating victim
A cornerstone in particle physics is that of simulation. The ability to test the components of a larger experiment in a safe and cheap digital environment allows modern experiments to have an optimised setup before testing it in an expensive to use particle accelerator. In this study, variations in the configuration of the main Hadronic Calorimeter (HCal) at the Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX)
