Bart Streumer utilizes the principle “R: We do not have reasons to do what we cannot do” in order to justify that ‘ought’ implies ‘can’. This thesis questions Streumer’s assumption and instead argues that we have reasons to do what is psychologically-, physically and maybe even metaphysically impossible but not conceptually or logically impossible. As is shown in the thesis we do not have reasons

The unnecessary and disproportionate use of pre-trial detention is a global issue that affects developed and developing countries alike. According to World Prison Brief, Cambodia has ranked 12th (among 217 countries) making it become a country with one of the highest percentages of pre-trial detainees: 71.8 percent to be exact. The excessive and unnecessary use of pre-trial detention in the Kingdo

Den 17 december 2021 fick Sverige en ny visselblåsarlag. Lagen om skydd för personer som rapporterar om missförhållanden ersätter den tidigare lagstiftningen för visselblåsare. Lagen baseras på ett EU-direktiv från 2019 och den nya lagen kommer omfatta både fler verksamhetsutövare och fler personer som rapporterar om missförhållanden. Syftet med denna undersökning var att beskriva den nya lagen oc

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) within product development has emerged as a significant area of research, especially in 2022-2023. However, there is a lack of empirical research on how AI tools are integrated into the product development process, especially within the ideation stage of startups, and what challenges and opportunities arise from this integration. Our thesis explores

This study examines the burgeoning patterns of the phenomenon of new-build gentrification. This phenomenon reflects a social justice imbalance, where affluence takes precedence over equitable access and the interests of economically vulnerable groups, in shaping urban spaces. While economic and environmental sustainability have been prioritized in urbanization goals, the social dimensions, includi

Circular economy is a solution for how to achieve sustainable development in the world. A circular economy involves the recirculation of products and materials, and aims to avoid the creation of waste. For a product to be recirculated, the recirculation needs to be considered already in the design phase. This thesis is performed in collaboration with Axis Communications and explores how to desi

Introduktion: Det första mötet mellan barn och föräldrar är betydelsefullt för barnets anknytning och föräldrarnas bindning. Genom att undersöka föräldrars upplevelse när separation sker under de första dygnen kan kunskap genereras utifrån ett föräldraperspektiv. Syfte: Syftet var tvådelat, att belysa föräldrars upplevelser av att separeras från sitt måttligt för tidigt födda barn i samband med fö

Integration of first- and second-generation ethanol production can facilitate the introduction of second-generation lignocellulosic ethanol production. Consolidation of the second-generation with the first-generation process can potentially reduce the downstream processing cost for the second-generation process as well as providing the first-generation process with energy. This study presents nove

Review of Constance Waeber Elsberg's book "Graceful Women: Gender and Identity in an American Sikh Community".

The aim of this study is to explore how academic teachers view and experience challenges in teaching communication. During a teacher training course 92 STEM teachers developed, implemented, evaluated and reported on altogether 44 authentic communication elements. Content analysis was used for analysing teachers’ written answers to questions before the course, and reports after the course. The resu

Reviews the film, Volver, directed by Pedro Almodóvar (2006). At the beginning of this extraordinary film, women in a small Spanish town tend to the graves of their departed; at the end, what some would consider a female "ghost" nurses a relative with cancer, as a haunting shot of a wooden door with cracks of light slowly turns dark, reminding us that in the blackness that will engulf us at the en
