Vid entreprenadprojekt uppkommer ofta tvister rörande entreprenörens rätt till tidsförlängning och ersättning för merkostnader. Vid sådana tvister kan det vara svårt för entreprenören att visa vad som har orsakat den händelse som entreprenören menar ger rätt till tidsförlängning eller ersättning, och hur stort behovet av tidsförlängning eller merkostnader är. Dessa svårigheter har lett till utveckIn construction projects it often arise disputes concerning the contractor’s right to an extension of time and compensation for extra costs.

Motivated by the phenomenon of one laptop per child in education at high-school level in the Swedish public sector, this master’s thesis elaborates on the question of ethics in public consumption. My research aims to show that collective actors such as municipalities can be seen as (un)ethical consumers and that they need to become aware of this.

PCDD/Fs and dl-PCBs, or more commonly referred to as dioxin and dioxin like substances are compounds present in our surrounding environment. As some congeners of these have been shown to be toxic, they are regulated under the Stockholm Convention. As dioxins are persistent in biota and have lipophilic properties they are seen accumulating in lipid rich fish in the Baltic, one of the affected speci
For many years, outdoor localization has been dominated by Global Positioning System (GPS) and other GNSS-based methods. While GPS provides global coverage and usually high accuracy, it has its limitations. GPS has lower accuracy in areas with many obstructions, such as buildings or trees, and is power consuming compared to other localization methods. Therefore, GPS may not be the best localizatio
In recent years, history of knowledge has been established as a new theoretical field in the study of history. An important perspective in this field is the theory of circulation of knowledge, according to which knowledge should be studied through its movement between different spheres in society – movement that, furthermore, contributes to changing this knowledge. A promising line of inquiry in t
On 15 April 2025, the Conseil d’État (French Supreme Tax Court), for the first time, referred preliminary questions to the CJEU to determine whether the Marks & Spencer exception can apply within the French tax consolidation regime.

Cancer patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are at an increased risk of death due to cancer. However, whether T2DM comorbidity increases other causes of death in cancer patients is the novel theme of this study. Patients with T2DM were identified from the nationwide Swedish Hospital Discharge Register and linked with patients with cancer recorded from the Swedish Cancer Registry
Chromosome banding analysis of 11 short-term cultured gallbladder carcinomas revealed acquired clonal aberrations in seven tumors (five primary and two metastases). Three of these had one clone, whereas the remaining four were cytogenetically heterogeneous, displaying two to seven aberrant clones. Of a total of 21 abnormal clones, 18 had highly complex karyotypes and three exhibited simple numeric
OBJECTIVE:: Although recent studies have indicated that both orthostatic hypotension and orthostatic hypertension (OHTN) independently predict cardiovascular events, the underlying mechanisms are still debatable. METHODS:: A total of 700 nondiabetic adults (43% men, age 64 years) were examined by orthostatic blood pressure (BP) test, carotid artery ultrasonography, and biochemical tests including
