After the Brexit referendum on the 23rd of June 2016 it is evident that the UK might be leaving the EU. In light of EU law, and the leave-campaign, the question of what will happen to UK merger control post-Brexit is especially riveting due to the internationality of merger control and the high impact of EU-control on competition law.

As pressure on land-use increase due to climate change and a transition to fossil-free energy sources, there is a growing interest in the potential to combine agricultural activities with ground-mounted solar energy parks. While claiming agricultural land for energy production sparks a lot of debate, a potential compromise may lie in utilizing depleted agricultural land for solar farms, purposely
Attitudes of Gen Z and their role in the workplace have been widely studied in the past decades. Even though Gen Z and Millennials have some similar workplace attitudes, the rapid change in technology experienced by Gen Z has inculcated some very unique working attitudes in the new generation, which in turn has impacted their expectations of middle management and their preference for such role

En tredjedel av maten vi produceras slängs, mat som har tagit resurser och landyta i anspråk för att bli till. För att få bukt med det globala matsvinnet har FN satt ett hållbarhetsmål att halvera matsvinnet inom mathandel och hushåll till 2030. En faktor som kan kopplas till matsvinn är förpackningar. När de används korrekt förhindrar förpackningar matsvinn genom att ge skydd och ökad hållbarhet,Globally, about a third of the food produced is wasted. To address this issue, the United Nations has set a sustainability goal of reducing food waste in retail and household by 50\% to 2030. One factor that can be connected to the generation of food waste is packaging. When applied correctly, packaging prevents waste by providing protection and shelf life, but when packaging does not meet consume
The endemic Philippine crocodile (Crocodylus mindorensis) is considered the most threatened crocodile species globally and is listed as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List. The species was considered extinct on Luzon Island until the discovery of a remnant population in 1999. This led to the first in-situ conservation measures and later community-based conservation. Public perception has pr
This thesis examines how offensive realism can explain China’s violations of international law in the South China Sea (SCS). Drawing on John Mearsheimer’s five bedrock assumptions: anarchy, offensive capability, uncertainty of intentions, survival as a primary goal, and rationality, the study uses the congruence method within a qualitative case study framework. It assesses whether China’s violatio
