General Purpose AI systems like ChatGPT pose unique dangers to society owing to the rapid evolution in their capabilities, and their ability to be utilized for a large variety of purposes, including those unintended by the developers of these AI systems. This thesis examines those dangers, and critically analyses the EU’s draft AI Act and its amendments with a view to ascertain if the draft law ad

This research investigates the gender dimension of the impacts of access to clean and modern energy and technology in productive uses of energy. Rural organizations led by women supported by the EnDev project Bolivia were selected for a multi-site case study. This project aims to facilitate clean and modern energy access, create and strengthen rural markets, and alleviate poverty. The energy justi

This paper describes how four teachers from the same school translate democracy from the curriculum. The interviews describes how the teachers work with the curriculum and what kind of difficulties they confront in the meeting with the students and other teachers. Through qualitative interviews of these teachers, have allowed us to read into their reflections as they explain their reality of the m

This essay investigates if NATO’s humanitarian intervention in Kosovo 1999 can be justified. To answer this question we use values like sovereignty, nonintervention, human rights and perspectives that are essential to the question. The perspectives used are two normative ethical perspectives and the Just War theory, which has some criteria’s for going to war and how war should be conducted. By usi

This study aims to present the relationships between the European Commission and a member state of the European Union during two different phases of the enforcement process of EU legislation and to explain how these relationships change. The relationships are studied and presented using a simple Principal-Agent model, in which the two main figures change sides between the different phases. The res

This master’s thesis describes methods of calculating deformations of large astronomical telescope mirrors caused by the mirror support system. In the first part of the report these calculation methods are derived, along with methods of optimizing a support system pattern. Both analytical and numerical methods are described in the case of deformation analysis, and methods based on probabilistic me

One important part of democratic consolidation is the institutionalisation of the party system and parties as they are central in that process. Party system institutionalisation in Africa has been a growing subject the last 20 years. In this paper I will present my theory and my findings from interviews with 24 interviewees including politicians, journalists and academia in Malawi during April and

Masculinity threat is associated with attempts to re-establish the status as a man, e.g. through gender stereotypical behavior (e.g. Bosson, Vandello, Burnaford & Weaver, 2009). Our study among teenagers explores the link between gender identity threat and interest in gender specific occupations and leisure activities. 297 students in secondary school (134 girls and 163 boys) took part in the

Efforts are on the way on the Swedish West Coast to develop the capacity for cultivation of marine resources, notably of kelps. Given that this is a region of great natural and national heritage, public opposition to marine developments has been identified as a possible risk factor. This survey thus sought to shed light on awareness levels, perceptions of different types of aquaculture and on reac

In this paper, we explore how the notion of participation informs policy documents in a public library context. Today, library users to a large extent are expected to manage on their own and society calls for self-governing, active subjects who are willing to participate. To explore the notion of participation we utilize the concept of problematization and conduct a text analysis of policy documenThis article explores how the notion of participation informs policy documents in a public library context.

Global greenhouse gas emissions from air travel (GHG-A) are on the rise, and projections point towards a rapid growth in the coming decades. This study aims to examine how local government (cities), addresses GHG-A in their Sustainable Energy Action Plans (SEAP). To fulfil this aim, over 200 SEAPs were analysed focusing on three issues: (1) Treatment of GHG-A in local emissions inventories; (2) PoGlobal greenhouse gas emissions from air travel (GHG-A) are on the rise, and projections point towards a rapid growth in the coming decades.

A hybrid catalyst consisting of Zr-doped mesoporous silica (Zr-SBA-15) supports with intergrown Cu nanoparticles was used to study the effects of a catalyst’s chemical states on CO2 hydrogenation. The chemical state of the catalyst was altered by using tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) or sodium metasilicate (SMS) as the silica precursor in the synthesis of the Zr-SBA-15 framework, and infiltration A hybrid catalyst consisting of Zr-doped mesoporous silica (Zr-SBA-15) supports with intergrown Cu nanoparticles was used to study the effects of a catalyst’s chemical states on CO2 hydrogenation.

Abstract [Bryophyes in base-rich fens in Skåne, southern-most Sweden, now and in the past] Over the last centuries, due to the combined effects of drainage, cultivation, eutrophication and overgrowth, the majority of all tree-less base-rich fens that were once found in Skåne have been lost and the typical species of these habitats have suffered accordingly. Here, the past and present distribution Abstract [Bryophyes in base-rich fens in Skåne, southern-most Sweden, now and in the past] Over the last centuries, due to the combined effects of drainage, cultivation, eutrophication and overgrowth, the majority of all tree-less base-rich fens that were once found in Skåne have been lost and the typical species of these habitats have suffered accordingly.

We use energy in almost every aspect of our lives. Yet, often, we do not know the source of electricity that powers our homes or heats our food. In this episode, we explore energy communities as a form of decentralised and democratic energy production.

Recent studies of beetle specimens deposited in collections have revealed five species new to the Swedish fauna to be hiding amongst their closely related species. In some cases, the species known to the Swedish fauna are widespread and considered common, making it easy to overlook the slight differences that separate them from the similar and less common species. Some of these species are restric
