Den nuvarande svenska arbetsrätten kan vara på kollisionskurs med EU-rätten avseende tidsbegränsade anställningar när det gäller implementeringen av direktiv 99/70/EG. EU-kommissionen anser att det finns en kollision mellan direktivet och sättet det införlivats i nationell rätt. Det finns bärkraftiga argument att samma skyddsnivå som avses i direktivet uppfylls indirekt genom de svenska arbetsrättCurrent Swedish labor rules may be on a collision with the European legal rules concerning time-limited employments arising from the EU directive 99/70/EC. The view of the European commission is that the directive has not been fulfilled and properly incorporated in the national rules. There are valid arguments that the level of protection as intended in the directive is achieved, regardless of the

The use of readmission agreements and safe third country rules enable the allocation of protection responsibilities from EU member states to third countries. Due to the increased displacement of individuals from Syria and Afghanistan, these legal mechanisms have been of increased importance to the European Union asylum policy during the recent year. The purpose of this thesis is to examine to what

Are birds better off without humans? The threat from urban Environment Pandas and tigers are well-known examples on animals who are badly affected by urbanization. That cities are growing bigger over most of our planet causes their habitats to disappear. However, there are a lot of other animals that also are badly affected. Not only the most conspicuous ones, but common ones that are important

Varför domstolar i staten A ska beakta och tillämpa lagar tillhörande staten B:s rättsordning är fortfarande omdiskuterat. Redan på 1600- och 1700-talet lanserade holländska jurister som Johannes Voet och Ulric Huber idén om comitas gentium – internationell artighet gentemot främmande stater. Under 1800-talet vidareutvecklades de idéer som den holländska skolan före-språkade av den tyska juristen The answer to the question why courts in state A should consider and apply laws belonging to the legal system of state B is still debated. As early as the 17th and 18th centuries, Dutch jurists such as Johannes Voet and Ulric Huber launched the idea of comitas gentium - international courtesy to foreign states. During the 19th century, the ideas advocated by the Dutch school of thought were furthe

The role of food-producing sectors such as agriculture and aquaculture in the development process is debated and while some consider industrial production to be the answer, others suggest that small-scale production can also make contributions to poverty reduction and food security. This thesis aims to shed light on these relationships by performing quantitative analyses of the small-scale freshwa

Cracking the Code: Why Cancer Cells Struggle to Transform into Antigen-Presenting Dendritic Cells Since cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, the possibility of converting cancer cells into other cell types represents an interesting approach to fighting cancer. Transforming cancer cells into immune cells by reprogramming their cell identity into immune cells could be a smart way

The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate QoL and Health-Related QoL (HRQoL) among people aged 75 years and over in relation to socio-demographic variables, need of ADL help, various degrees of present QoL, self-rated health (SRH), health complaints, everyday activities, social support and sense of coherence (SOC). A further aim was to test a QoL scale and to illuminate older people's expe

In this paper, the freeze-thaw stability of mayonnaise type oil-in-water emulsions is studied. The emphasis of the experiments have been on the properties of the dispersed oil phase as only small, or no effects, were observed from initial experiments on changing the properties of the aqueous phase within the investigated ranges. Different vegetable oils are investigated in order to relate the comp

This report summarizes 28 case studies addressing the common interest for indicators in case studies in Nordic and Baltic countries and is distributed to different building types – Benchmarking systems and indicators (4 case studies) – Offices (7 case studies) – Housing (8 case studies) – School and nursery (5 case studies) – Shopping centres (3 case studies) – Hospital (1 case studies) There are

The main objective was to compare short wave radiation from Thorn lamp to solar radiation. In sun all manikin front zones get more or less evenly radiated but in the lab the radiated power reaches some zones more than others. Tests were carried out on the thermal manikin Tore under clear sky in a building corner facing the sun. The manikin was turned so that in the end of each trial the sun faced

The genetic basis of complete C4 deficiency in a patient with SLE was investigated. Previous studies have demonstrated that this patient has two different major histocompatibility complex (MHC) haplotypes that each contain a major deletion and a non-expressed C4 gene. In the present study, non-expression of the C4 genes was explained by the finding of two distinct C4 gene mutations. A previously d

The management of construction tolerances is a necessary and routine part of the construction activity and is normally brought to our attention only when failures are reported. In a study of tolerance management, the authors found widespread evidence of the same failures and the reasons for them. There seems to be no shortage of experience of the effects of failures in tolerances or of knowledge a

Nature provides us with a vast source of inspiration. However, given industrial designers' open-mindedness and inquisitiveness, a surprisingly limited set of nature-derived symbols continues to be popular in this creative discipline. Rather than designing products mimicking nature, it is probably more rewarding designing them based on the natural principles leading to its growth and form. However,

Context: Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are cleaved by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4); plasma activity of DPP-4 may be increased in obesity. The impact of this increase on incretin hormone secretion and metabolism is not known. Objective: The aim of the study was to assess incretin hormone secretion and degradation in lean and obese nondiabet

Moisture is decisive for a large number of reaction, binding and transport processes in concrete affecting the durability, shrinkage and performance in various environments. Consequently, the role of moisture must be assessed and quantified in a diagnosis of concrete degradation by moisture measurements and a survey of environmental actions. The paper gives an over-view of the role of moisture in

Desalting technologies and fresh water production has been developed over the years, including primarily thermal and membrane processes. Five different types of desalination technology were studied and compared for long-term of use namely, thermal processes include multistage flash evaporation (MSF), multiple effect evaporation (ME), and vapor compression (VC) and membrane processes contain revers

An almost k-wise independent sample space is a small subset of m bit sequences in which any k bits are “almost independent”. We show that this idea has close relationships with useful cryptologic notions such as multiple authentication codes (multiple A-codes), almost strongly universal hash families and almost k-resilient functions. We use almost k-wise independent sample spaces to construct new
