I juli 2016 introducerades lagen om tillfälliga begränsningar av möjligheten att få uppehållstillstånd i Sverige (den tillfälliga lagen). Ikraftträdandet av den tillfälliga lagen innebar att rätten till familjeåterförening för alternativt skyddsbehövande begränsades avsevärt. Enligt 7§ den tillfälliga lagen exkluderades alternativt skyddsbehövande från rätten att återförenas med sin familj under dIn July 2016, the Law on temporary limitations to the possibility of being granted residence permit in Sweden (the Temporary Law) came into force. The Temporary Law implied a sharp turn in Swedish asylum legislation. The right to family reunification, which previously had been granted subsidiary protection beneficiaries and refugees on a similar basis, was suddenly heavily restricted for beneficia

Segregation är ett föränderligt tillstånd som är komplext och påverkar såväl enskilda individer som samhället i stort. Exempelvis är stadsplaneringen en bakomliggande orsak som kan påverkar segregationen i en stad. För att det verkligen ska kunna ske en förbättring är det emellertid av stor vikt att åtgärder vidtas på olika plan och av olika aktörer. Det ursprungliga syftet bakom arbete är att utSegregation is a changing condition that is complex and affects individuals but also the society. Urban planning is for example an underlying cause that can affect segregation in a city. However, in order for an improvement, it is of great importance that measures are taken at different levels and by different actors. The primary purpose of the report was to study the impact that urban planning h

Exploring a prolonged life cycle of materials through an adaptive transformation Take, make and waste. Our society is trapped in a linear economic system where we extract raw materials, process them into products and as they have served their purpose they are reduced to waste. This unsustainable mentality seeps through to all things consumable, from fashion and cellphones to kitchen counters and

Climate-focused study abroad relying on high-emitting travel poses a dilemma between study abroad and emission reductions. This study employs the three spheres of transformation investigating this dilemma through coding syllabi (n=156,) surveying educators (n=9,) and interviewing (n=14) Climate Action Network for International Educators (CANIE) affiliates considering whether studying climate chang

Significant behavioral changes will need to be implemented to prevent the energy supply sector from tripling CO2 emissions by the midcentury. However, within the academic research, behavior changes remain primarily focused on the individual level, while the behavior of companies that are responsible for elevated greenhouse gas emissions falls behind. This master’s thesis analyses the core values

The aging of us humans is individual and occurs gradually over a long period of time. Some functions in the body deteriorate and older people often have difficulty for various reasons to get the amount of nutrition they need, so they usually need to divide their diet into more meals distributed during the day. In this essay, the diet served in a retirement home in a small municipality in northwest

Popular Abstract in Swedish Anhöriga – aspekter på börda, livstillfredsställelse och effekter av stöd. Med en ökande befolkning av äldre och en samtidig minskning av möjligheter till hjälpinsatser inom såväl kommunalt som landstingsstyrd vård och omsorg, kommer många av oss ta hand om äldre familjemedlemmar, släktingar och vänner. Hur kommer detta att påverka oss? Ungefär 20 % av den vuxna befolWith an aging population and a reduction in social services provided by the municipality, a huge majority of us will take care of elderly family members, relatives and friends in need of assistance. How will this affect our lives? Approximately 20% of the adult population in Sweden, mainly middle-aged persons, identify themselves as family caregivers. Many of these caregivers are working and, at

I samband med framarbetandet av 36 § avtalslagen uttrycktes olika uppfattningar vad beträffar hur domstolarnas avgöranden bäst bör utformas för att främja vägledning och förutsägbarhet i en annars obestämd generalklausul. Principiellt med möjlighet att stämpla villkor som oskäliga i sig framfördes i lagmotiven. Kausistiskt, baserat på omständigheterna i det enskilda fallet, menade flertalet remissIn connection with the preparation of section 36 of the Swedish Contracts Act, different views were expressed as to how the courts' decisions should best be formulated in order to promote guidance and hence predictability in an otherwise indefinite general clause. Principally designed with the possibility of stamping contract terms as unreasonable in itself, it was argued in the law motives. B

The purpose of this thesis has been to illustrate the performative aspects of the expressions created by the Swedish reception of Valerie Solanas’ Scum Manifesto, by focusing on Malin Arnell’s performance piece I didn’t do it for nothing. Arnell’s performance works as a connecting point on which Judith Butler's account of performativity and Louis Althusser's theory of interpellation has be

Svensson (1997) föreslår att centralbanker på grund av implementerings- och utvärderingssvårigheter hos inflationsmål även bör ha ett mål för inflationsprognoser. Han argumenterar för detta med hjälp av en teoretisk modell som antar att den korta räntan, som centralbanken kontrollerar, påverkar BNP-gapet med en periods fördröjning, vilket sedan påverkar inflationen efter ännu en period. För att ma

Introduction: Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy-related disorder associated with maternal hypertension and placental dysfunction. A significant micronutrient during pregnancy is iron, which is important in cellular functions. While iron absorption increases in pregnancy, little is known about the exact mechanisms regulating maternal iron levels and transfer through the placenta in normal and compli

In this article I call for an awareness of the mobile commons– the informal support that exists among migrating people, NGOs, and activists – in relation to the realization of family reunification. Taking its point of departure in a concrete case of family reunification for young unaccompanied children, the article seeks to expose how the traditional legal notion of the liberal subject fails to pr

Over the past 50 years there has been an unprecedented increase in pollution globally. Population growth and higher standards of living have resulted in increases in global consumption facilitated by industrialisation and globalisation of goods and services thus resulting in the release of environmental pollutants on a mass scale. This article analyses the effects and consequences of pollution on

INTRODUCTION: Mental health workers' attitudes toward individuals who self-harm impact accessibility and quality of care. Previous studies have established the role of training on professionals' attitudes, with mixed findings for gender and work experience. While self-report attitudinal scales are frequently used, latent response trends across such scales are seldom considered. The present study e

Aim: To explore the impact of age on the discriminative ability of the National Early Warning Score (NEWS) 2 in prediction of unanticipated Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission, in-hospital cardiac arrest (IHCA) and mortality within 24 hours of Rapid Response Team (RRT) review. Furthermore, to investigate 30- and 90-day mortality, and the discriminative ability of NEWS 2 in prediction of long-term
