The development of new technologies, the new scientific initiatives and the new global market are giving rise to new models of collaboration. One of these models is ‘Mass Collaboration’ which is based on Web 2.0 technologies and services. To date, this model has been researched from a strategy perspective and no existing research perspectives are addressing how this model of collaboration can be m

In today's conflicts women are especially exposed. The UNSC-resolution 1325 recognises this and also that women’s participation in the process of establishing a stable peace, is crucial. Despite an increasing awareness of the resolution and its importance, the implementation is lagging behind and women are continually under-represented. Thus this thesis aims at analysing the implementation of

It has also weakened the role of government as a regulator of labour legislation, which in Zambia is quite progressive, compared to other countries in the region.

Popular AbstractSveriges första stora kärnkraftsreaktor togs i bruk 1972. Samma år kom kärnkraften att för första gången på allvar ifrågasättas i den svenska riksdagen. Under loppet av ett par år förvandlades kärnkraftsfrågan till den nutida svenska politikens kanske mest kontroversiella och omdebatterade fråga. I denna avhandling analyseras den riksdagspolitiska debatten om kärnkraften mellan åreThis study applies a qualitative discourse theoretical method to analyse the central argumentation in the parliamentary debate on nuclear power in Sweden during 1972­1980, reconstructed from official documents such as governmental and parliamentary bills, committee reports, parliamentary debate protocols, and official commission reports.

En ordning av naturen given. Den svenska arvsrätten synes nästintill opåverkad av tidens gång. Successionsrättens rötter sträcker sig långt bak i historien. Samhället har genom åren genomgått omfattande förändringar och anpassat sig till nya rådande samhällsstrukturer. Den arvsrättsliga regleringen har däremot förblivit i stort sett oförändrad. Sedan 1300-talet har det enbart funnits fyra versioneAn order given by nature. The Swedish inheritance law appears almost unaffected by the passing of time. The roots of the Swedish succession law extends far back in history. Swedish society has gone through extensive changes over the years in order to adjust to the prevailing social structures, however, the succession regulation seems to have remained almost the same.

A growing body of evidence suggests that speech recognition is facilitated by rapid activation of possible lexical candidates and subsequent competition and selection. An event-related potential (ERP) component 136-204 ms after word onset, the pre-activation negativity (PrAN), correlates with lexical competition. Further, the increased negativity for low lexical competition correlates with increas

Den 1 juni 2018 infördes ett frivillighetsrekvisit i den svenska våldtäktsbe-stämmelsen i 6 kap 1 § BrB. Det nya rekvisitet innebär att avsaknad av ömse-sidig frivillighet ligger till grund för straffansvar. Målsägandens agerande och hur personen uttryckt frivillighet är av central betydelse för bedömningen. I min uppsats har jag undersökt vilka gränser målsägandens frivillighet ställs inför när dOn June 1, 2018, a voluntariness requirement was introduced in the Swedish rape provision in Chapter 6, Section 1 of the Swedish Penal Code (BrB). The new requirement implies that the absence of mutual voluntariness forms the basis for criminal liability. The actions of the victim and how their expressed voluntariness is assessed are of central importance in the evaluation. In my essay, I have exa
