The recent 2019 COVID pandemic elucidated the tremendous effects a viral outbreak can have on the societies of the world with almost 7 million cumulative deaths worldwide. It is therefore of high importance to prepare preventative measures to aid the handling of emerging viral threats before a new pandemic is realized. One of the more prevalent and rapidly spreading viruses today are the Dengue vi
Sedan införandet av det kommunala planmonopolet 1947 till följd av den bostadssociala utredningen har planlagstiftningen reformerats flertalet gånger. I förevarande examensarbete studeras den historiska utvecklingen av både det kommunala planmonopolet och dess tillhörande planlagstiftning. Examensarbetet syftar till att studera hur det kommunala planmonopolet kommit att utvecklas och om reformerSince the introduction of the municipal planning monopoly in 1947 following the Housing Social Investigation, the planning legislation has been reformed several times. In this thesis, the historical development of both the municipal planning monopoly and its associated planning legislation is studied. The aim of the thesis is to examine how the municipal planning monopoly has evolved and whether
Traditionally hydraulic actuators has been the primary choice in modern submarines due to their strength and reliability. In recent years many commercial and military vehicles have switched to electromechanical alternatives, as they are generally more energy efficient and have superior controllability. These are two attributes valued in a submarine, hence an investigation was carried out to assess
This Master Degree Project, presented as a Research Proposal, is critically portraying a couple contemporary Strategic Human Resource Management (SHRM) practices belonging to the Performance Management System: i.e. Performance Appraisals and Feedback. The SHRM function is being critically discussed against its’ history of development and secondly how this function acts as a representative of the ‘
It is a common viewpoint that human rights, justice and law are interlinked with the institutions that we as a society create. Does that mean that, without institutions, there can be no rights? The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether or not there can be such a thing as human rights when there is no state to enforce them effectively. To achieve this purpose i have performed an analysis o
I det svenska straffsystemet åtnjuter alla brottsliga gärningar ett straffvärde. Så även narkotikabrott. För snart ett år sedan, i juni 2011, avkunnade HD en dom som tydligt syftade till att ändra praxis avseende hur straffvärdet ska fastställas i narkotikamål. De två tilltalade som åtalet huvudsakligen avsåg dömdes av HovR till 14 års fängelse vardera. HD sänkte straffen till fyra års fängelse. EAccording to Swedish penal law all criminal offenses deserves a penal val-ue. So while drug offenses. Nearly a year ago, in June 2011, the Supreme Court gave a judgment that was clearly aimed at changing practices in the assessment of the penal value of drug offenses. The two defendants in the indictment were each mainly sentenced by the Court of Appeals for 14 years in prison. The Supreme Court r
The adage “think global, act local” can be a fitting description of how to address climate change. Municipalities are often responsible for implementing the measures required to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and shift to a more climate-neutral development trajectory. However, there is a vast spectrum of municipal ambition regarding climate, and not all municipalities manage to have robust and am
Conventional agriculture in Sweden is facing challenges with low resilience to a changing climate and decreased biodiversity. Silvoarable agroforestry is an alternative land use practice that contain a woody perennial and crop in the same field. Trees on cultivated land break up large monocultures, increase biodiversity, creates functional diversity, and produces more commodities. This land use pr
Surrogatmoderskap är en metod för att bli förälder som är oreglerad både inom svensk och internationell rätt. I praktiken är det dock omöjligt att ge- nomföra ett surrogatarrangemang inom den svenska sjukvården. Däremot kan man som svensk anlita en surrogatmoder utomlands med hjälp av en surroga- tagentur. Sådana förfaranden har länge varit föremål för debatt och flera fall av exploatering av bådeWhile Swedish families cannot conduct a surrogacy arrangement in the do- mestic health care system, it is possible to employ a surrogate abroad with the help of an agency. Such practices are however unregulated, both internation- ally and in the Swedish legal system. Additionally, the human rights issues associated with surrogacy have long been debated and cases of exploitation of both surrogates
Abstract Authors: Helena Håkansson & Maria Bergman Title: Spirituality, fellowship and change of way to perceive reality The twelve-step philosophy is regularly occurring both as a common way of treatment and within self-help groups. Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous as well as several other self-help groups are only a few examples of several organizations who´s foundations are base
Detta examensarbetet handlar om att forma en hemisfäroid från en platt honeycomb-skiva samtidigt som honeycomb-strukturen bibehålls. Honeycomb-strukturen är ett hexagonalt mönster som kan vara gjord av hexagoner, cirklar eller trianglar. Inom kartografi görs jordens sfäriska yta om till en platt representation i form av en karta. Omvandlingen är omöjlig utan förvrängning eller uppdelning i mindreThis Master thesis is about forming a hemispheroid out of a flat honeycomb while retaining the honeycomb structure through an even spread of deformation. The honeycomb structure is a hexagonal structure which can be made out of hexagons, circles or triangles. In cartography the surface of the earth, a spheroid, must be distorted or cut up in order to create a flat map. In the same way forming of
This project will analyze the current situation for fiber routing. It will research how well planned excavations on the roads and their restorations are today. The project will also study how often road reinforcements and fiber routing are applied simultaneously and how experts perceive the situation. The project is carried out in the municipality of Svalöv who are currently building a fiber netwo
Liksom samhällsmedborgarna behöver förhålla sig till straffrätten, bör också staten behöva förhålla sig till densamma genom att ramar uppställs för när straffrätten kan användas. En sådan ram är att kriminalisering får användas för att förhindra att skada uppkommer på ett skyddsintresse. Detta examensarbete har till syfte att undersöka innebörden av det straffrättsliga skadebegreppet vid kriminalAs much as members of society need to conform their conduct to the penal law, the state should also have to adhere to the penal law, by providing clear guidelines for when such law can be used. Such a guideline is that criminalization may serve to prevent harm to legally-recognized interests. This thesis aims to explore the concept of harm within the deliberations that attach to the criminalizat
Human rights defenders, social leaders, and environmental and indigenous activists fight for political, cultural, social, economic, and environmental rights and often face intimidation and violence as a consequence. In this article, we analyze how the implementation of the peace agreement signed in 2016 between the government of Colombia and the FARC-EP guerrilla group affects environment and huma
Why was the group seen as a new and promising political and scientific category in the Swedish interwar period, and why was the category redefined in the postwar era? This article sets out to answer these questions through a study of Torgny T. Segerstedt and his analysis of the group category. Lorraine Dastons notion that in scientific practice the epistemology effects the ontology of the studied
Social trust is a moral resource with a normatively highly desirable pay-off. Previous research argues that universal welfare state programmes ‘make’ social trust whereas means-testing programmes ‘break’ it. Despite its important implications for welfare-state design, comparative longitudinal evidence for this hypothesis is scarce. To test whether within-country changes in social trust are associa
Predicting corporate failure is an increasingly important topic in the world of economics today. This paper, with the help of the credit ranking company Syna AB, aims to investigate a few different statistic strategies to do just that. This task is accomplished by using a data material of 250 000 Swedish companies divided into two subsamples. The first sample is used to develop the model and the s
Since the earliest economic historical studies wage series have been used to sketch economic development both at the macro and the household level. This dissertation takes advantage of new data from women and men, working in both the countryside and in towns, as well as employed both by the day and on long-term contracts, in order to make an in-depth quantitative look at the relationships between
