Popular AbstractAvhandlingen är en feministisk analys av regionalpolitiken som möjliggörare för kvinnor som vill försörja sig på landbygden som egna företagare. Fokus i studien är kvinnor som ville men inte ansåg sig ha eller fick möjlighet driva sina företagsidéer vidare och därför avvecklade dem på ett tidigt stadium. I intervjuer redogör ett antal kvinnor för sina upplevelser av att arbeta för This thesis deals with questions concerning the different strategies women adopt in order to support themselves when they become unemployed in rural areas. One strategy is to start a business of one's one, a strategy supported and called for by the Swedish Government, especially during the 1990s economic recession. Another important factor was the Swedish membership in the EU that demanded cutback
Association for computer aided genealogy research of Sweden(DIS) is investigating the possibility of a nationwide genealogical database (RGD) of Sweden's historical population. The finished database should contain basic information about individuals' names, birth, marriage, death, and individuals' relationships such as father, mother, husband/wife and children. This will make up a kind
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is a term increasingly used in academic discussions, political debates, media, corporate reports, Non-Governmental Organizations’ (NGOs) reports, and even by civil society and the public. But what does CSR actually mean? What do CSR practices actually constitute? Another increasingly debated issue is the growing power of the business sector and its direct effe
Title: The Swedish Container Shipping Industry: An Analysis of the Service Quality Perception and its Measurement Purpose of the paper: The aim of this research paper is to gain a greater understanding of the container shipping industry. This way the notion of service quality can be brought to the given industry and acknowledge the perceptions of various actors regarding the aspects of quality in
For decades, manual scavengers – people cleaning and engaging with human faeces as part of the sanitation chain, most of whom are Dalits – in India have been protesting against the severe health risks and exploitation associated with their work. Despite the enactment of stricter laws and high-profile court cases and wins, manual scavenging persists rampantly. Yet, non-governmental organisations (N
Denna uppsats undersöker artikel 1(A)(2) i 1951 års konvention om flyktingars rättsliga ställning och konventionen om rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsättning. Det är beaktat att flyktingar och personer med funktionsnedsättning utgör utsatta grupper värdiga skydd av samhället. Traditionellt har dock asyl- och funktionsrätt behandlas fristående från varandra. Däremot indikerar skapandet avThis essay analyses Article 1(A)(2) of The 1951 Refugee Convention and the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Refugees and people with disabilities constitute vulnerable groups, worthy protection of society. However, traditionally the areas of refugee- and disability law have been addressed independently of each other. On the other hand, the adoption of the CRPD indicates that
Study purpose: The maritime shipping industry, particularly the commercial sector, is a significant contributor to carbon emissions and environmental pollution. Various solutions are being proposed to enhance the sector's sustainability, including the adoption of wind propulsion technologies. However, the economic feasibility of these technologies on a large scale remains uncertain. Despite th
With an annual production of 1.4 million tonnes of fish, Morocco is currently the largest seafood producer in African and Arab countries. However, a vast majority of fish labelled as Moroccan come from the maritime zone of Western Sahara, the last non-self-governing territory in Africa that has been occupied by Morocco since 1975. Furthermore, the fish stock off the Western Saharan coast is at the
Additiv tillverkning (AM), vanligtvis kallad 3D-utskrift, erkänns som en transformativ metod inom modern tillverkning. Tekniken möjliggör framställning av komplexa geometrier med ökad materialeffektivitet, lokaliserad produktion och större designfrihet. Trots dessa fördelar kvarstår utmaningar när det gäller att optimera AM-processer för att säkerställa resurseffektivitet – särskilt i att minska mAdditive Manufacturing (AM), commonly referred to as 3D printing, has known as a transformative approach in modern manufacturing. It enables the production of complex geometries with reduced material usage, localized fabrication, and improved design flexibility. Despite these advantages, challenges remain in optimizing AM processes to ensure resource efficiency, particularly in minimizing material
Public organisations need legitimacy to operate and there are many ways for them to gain, maintain and repair it. Without legitimacy, public organisations can face challenges such as legitimacy gaps or crises, which can have lasting effects on their function and authority. This thesis aims to shed light on how public organisations in Iceland communicate when their legitimacy is questioned and wha
Wind power is crucial for achieving climate and energy targets, but prolonged permitting processes can impede its expansion. This thesis examines whether Sweden’s permitting process is an unreasonable obstacle to wind power development, with the new (2023) EU requirements under the Renewable Energy Directive III (RED III) as the benchmark. The research identifies RED III’s demands on permitting, e
The purpose of this thesis is to analyse how the European Union constructs and articulates peace within its official discourse in relation to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine in 2014, 2021 and 2025. The European Union has long presented peace as a central part of its political identity, values and external role. However, political actors, such as the European Union, frequently invoke peace

A range of cardiovascular risk factors associated with stroke are known, but they do not explain all cases of stroke. Genetic factors can be responsible for certain forms of stroke, and are further investigated in this thesis. The aims of this thesis were to study the occurrence of familial clustering of stroke, compile known stroke-associated genetic conditions for diagnostic and research genetic
A knowledge of far field temperatures is valuable for Performance Based Design structural analysis and life safety analysis, where a parametric study is needed. A fire model using multiple zones called a multi zone (MZ) fire model has in previous studies shown good potential as an analytical tool for predicting far field temperatures in large compartments. This thesis aims to build upon the existi

This thesis is a combined conceptual study and preliminary design of two study options for a future tramway line between Trädgårdsgatan and Hälsovägen in Helsingborg. This line is of great interest since it’s centrally located and regarded as a problematic stretch of narrow streets, heavy traffic and steep gradients. In addition, a local tramway line in Helsingborg is regarded as a priority projec
