Studien strävar efter att ta reda på hur rädsla för brott ser ut i ett ruralt område som nyligen utsatts för grova brott. Detta har undersökts genom intervjuer med sex butiksägare som alla blivit utsatta för brott och där två har utsatts för de grova brotten som studien utgår ifrån. Datan har tolkats med hjälp av DuBows m.fl. uppdelning av riskbedömning, värdering och emotioner. Alla respondenter
Voting cohesion in the European Parliament is a thoroughly studied field, however a deep dive into the kingmaker of coalition building, the liberal party group, has yet to be done. This thesis attempts to illustrate how voting cohesion varies within the Alliance of Liberals & Democrats and Renew Europe respectively, and what factors can explain variation in cohesion. Specifically, how cohesion
Syftet med uppsatsen är att ta reda på vilka betydelsefulla ”triggers” som leder till internationell expansion, samt vilka viktiga faktorer som påverkar företagets internationaliseringsprocess. Sex snabbväxande svenska företag intervjuas. Ingen slutsats har kunnat ges generellt för alla företag, men vi har haft tillräckligt med underlag för att få en bra förståelse för vilka som är de vanligaste t
The Mediterranean region is one of the most sensitive regions in the world in the face of climate change. Many studies name this region as a “hot spot”. It is essential to model the water balance of this region in order to better understand the impacts of climate change. The water balance expresses the net result of the flow of water from atmosphere to the surface and vice versa. It is one of the
Internal displacement is a relatively new issue in the international agenda, in general, and in research, in particular. However, due to the steady increase in the number of displaced persons globally, this problem becomes more and more visible. This study sees internally displaced persons as marginalized and subaltern group, which is, however, potentially able to start struggle for recognition, w
Detta examensarbete undersöker möjligheter och utmaningar med sjukresor i Sverige, med fokus på hur olika regioner hanterar transporter för patienter samt de problem som finns kopplade till tillgänglighet och kostnadseffektivitet. Studien syftar till att jämföra regionernas regler och krav för sjukresor samt att utvärdera tillgängligheten i den ordinarie kollektivtrafiken i Skåne. Om den allmänna
This thesis examines the relationship between varying levels of Christian religiosity and European identity in EU countries. The study explores the negative and positive relationships that exist between religion and identity on a supranational level. The hypothesis is derived from social identity theory (SIT) in relation to previous research, and the relationship was tested using data from the Int
I ett allt med digitaliserat samhälle förväntas regering och offentliga aktörer att delta i den digitala utvecklingen och med hjälp av dess möjligheter erbjuda medborgarna vissa tjänster och öka förvaltningens effektivitet, s.k e-förvaltning. Sverige var länge ett av de ledande länderna inom e-förvaltning, men har de senaste åren tappat positioner i jämförelser med andra länder. Detta kan till sto
In this essay I have done an analysis of a text by Nick Arnold who is a writer of children’s books about science with the ambition to make science accessible to everyone, and especially to children. I have translated the first 6 000 words of his Measly Medicine(2006), looked into different methods of explanation he uses in order to make difficult subjects available to children, and analysed what I
Utländska offentliga pensionsinstitut som får utdelningar från svenska företag beskattas i Sverige med kupongskatt på upp till 30 procent av utdelningens bruttobelopp. De inhemska motsvarigheterna, AP-fonderna, är statliga myndigheter och omfattas av statens skattebefrielse enligt inkomstskattelagen. Denna skillnad i beskattning av utdelningar har gett upphov till ett fördragsbrottsärende mot SverForeign public pension funds receiving dividends from Swedish companies are in Sweden subject to withholding tax of up to 30 percent of the gross amount of the dividends. The domestic equivalents, the Swedish governmental pension funds, the AP-funds, are exempt from income tax as they are a part of the Swedish state. This difference in taxation has given rise to infringement proceedings against Sw
This paper evaluates the cost-effectiveness of renovating single-family houses to Passive House level, as compared to maintaining the existing buildings or renovating to building regulation level. The assessment involved life cycle cost analyses, and concerns the Swedish single-family housing stock constructed between 1961 and 1980, which accounts for about a third of Sweden’s two million single-f
Relationships between health professionals and pharmaceutical manufacturers can unduly influence clinical practice. These relationships are the focus of global transparency efforts, including in Europe. We conducted a descriptive content analysis of the transparency provisions implemented by February 2017 in nine European Union countries concerning payments to health professionals, with duplicate Relationships between health professionals and pharmaceutical manufacturers can unduly influence clinical practice.

The future opportunities for high-density QCD studies with ion and proton beams at the LHC are presented. Four major scientific goals are identified: the characterisation of the macroscopic long wavelength Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP) properties with unprecedented precision, the investigation of the microscopic parton dynamics underlying QGP properties, the development of a unified picture of particle
