Med ett politiskt parti anklagat för fascism i riksdagen, och nynazister marscherande på gatorna är frågor om demokrati och frihet viktigare än någonsin. Var bör yttrandefrihetens gränser dras? Bör den överhuvudtaget begränsas? Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att utforska en möjlig lösning till de problem som dagens demokrati står inför. Det här åstadkoms genom en konstruktion av ett konceptuellt With a political party accused of fascism in the Swedish parliament and neo-nazis marching in the streets, questions of democracy and freedom of expression are as important as ever. Where to draw the boundaries of the freedom of expression? Why have, or limit, such freedoms in the first place? The purpose of this thesis is to investigate a possible solution to the problems facing contemporary demo

Purpose – The road freight industry is becoming more and more complex. An increasing number of actors participating in the transport process has been highlighted. Simultaneously, transport constellations become more fragmented. With transport as feature of the product-offer, sending companies face new challenges. While transport has as part of the product offer influence on the customer satisfacti

Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera Fackföreningslagen och dess potentiella konsekvenser för fackföreningars föreningsfrihet i den kambodjanska textilindustrin. Utöver detta analyseras lagen i förhållande till redan befintlig nationell lagstiftning samt i relation till internationell rätt rörande föreningsfrihet. Majoriteten av Fackföreningslagens regleringar är oförenliga med internationeThe aim of the thesis is to elaborately analyse the Trade Union Law and its possible implications for trade unions’ right to freedom of association in the Cambodian garment industry. In addition, the law is evaluated in relation to already existing domestic law and in relation to international law regarding freedom of association. The majority of the Trade Union Law’s provisions are incompatible

It has been shown that the semi-arid environment of the Sahelian belt plays an important role in the global carbon uptake as the fluctuation of its primary productivity can be determinant for the global carbon uptake. The insect Schistocerca gregaria commonly known as the desert locust is a disturbance factor that can affect the vegetation productivity for consecutive seasons. In this study the de

Several articles within the area of green chemistry often promote new techniques or products as 'green' or 'more environmentally benign' than their conventional counterpart although these articles often do not quantitatively assess the environmental performance. In order to do this, life cycle assessment (LCA) is a valuable methodology. However, on the planning stage, a full-scale LCA is considere

MARS is the system established and maintained by the European Commission in order to collect information related to major industrial accidents in EU Member States in the context of the Seveso II Directive. One of the main purposes of the MARS database is to provide information for learning from the accidents to avoid similar events. Probably, the most important issue for the learning is the determ

A review was performed of eight previously performed investigations of environmental impacts from end-consumer food waste prevention. The overall aim of the study was to investigate the state of the art in these assessments, identify key factors which could explain seen variations in GWP-emission savings, and suggest methodological improvements leading to increased potentials for cross-study compa

Introduction: There is a common understanding that driving under the influence of alcohol is associated with higher risk of being involved in crashes with injuries and possible fatalities as the outcome. Various countermeasures have therefore from time to time been taken by the authorities to prevent drunk driving. One of them has been the alcohol interlock. Up to now, interlocks have mainly been

Purpose of the master thesis is to develop an algorithmic trading model for a single asset, which is well functioning on the Scandinavian market. Deliverables: The main focus has been towards creating an indicating model to quantify market impact, cost of trading and model an efficient trading frontier. Methodology: Initially we focused on research papers and literature within our specific field t

Genom att använda koldioxidinfångning som drivs av överskottsvärme på ett massabruk i sydvästra Sverige så kan mer än en tredjedel av de fossila utsläppen från hela pappers- och massaindustrin fångas in genom så kallade negativa utsläpp. Detta visar på hur snabbt Sveriges fossila utsläpp kan minska genom användning av koldioxidinfångning. På ett massabruk används trä som den huvudsakliga råvaranAs the atmospheric carbon dioxide keeps increasing, bioenergy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) is getting increased attention as a measure to reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide. It is especially interesting in Sweden where the extensive paper and pulp industry constitutes point sources of biogenic carbon dioxide. As carbon capture requires energy, it is important to investigate the oppo

The Swedish public library was founded in the years when the society in Sweden went from being a society of agriculture to industrialism. Modernism was sweeping over the country, everything was possible, which influenced the new society that was built. Now Sweden was going to be a true democracy with responsible and empathic citizens. One of the main tools in this process was to educate people, to

In the 1940s, Swedish Nobel laureate Gunnar Myrdal noted a disconnect between the American creed (liberty and justice for all, equality) and the status of African-Americans (marginalization, disenfranchisement, segregation). Decades later, a similar disconnect is currently reflected in Myrdal's Sweden. The state of health for ethnic and racial minority migrants clashes with Swedish policy dict

International criminal law is currently subdivided into international criminal law stricto sensu — the so-called core crimes—genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and crimes of international concern—the so-called treaty crimes—human trafficking, terrorism, drug trafficking etc.* This research draft suggests that special category of international crimes such as human trafficking can be ap

Denna studie undersöker om maskininlärning kan användas för att förbättra bedömningen av rehabiliteringsövningar. Resultatet visade att metoden har potential, men att det krävs ytterligare studier för att utveckla en användbar lösning. Rehabiliteringsövningar är en viktig del av återhämtningen från skador och för att den ska bli korrekt krävs hjälp från en fysioterapeut. Fysioterapeuten guidar pa

Plaster som används för dagligt bruk består till stor del av fossila ämnen. Med ökad efterfrågan och produktion för varje år, är en hållbar utveckling för plaster en växande utmaning. Ett av de stora problemen är förbrukningen av de icke förnyelsebara fossila källorna, vilket medför att förr eller senare behövs alternativ till de konventionella plasterna. Med detta problem i åtanke, så fokuserar dPlastics for everyday use are made from fossile resources. With the demand for plastics increasing every year, a sustainable development for plastic products is a growing challenge. A major issue is the depletion of the non-renewable fossile resources, which means that sooner or later alternatives to the conventional plastics are needed. With this problem in mind, this work focuses on the developm

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a devastating neurodegenerative disease with neither a known cause nor an available cure. With disease progression, toxic protein aggregates form in the brain, leading to the loss of the upper and lower motor neurons. While circulating bone marrow-derived inflammatory cells have not been shown to cross the blood brain barrier, changes in their number and comp

This is the report of a master thesis in Mechanical engineering with industrial design at Lund University Faculty of Engineering, in collaboration with Ikea Components AB (ICOMP) in Älmhult. Furniture dampers are a desired feature by most customers and are practically a standard in kitchen drawers and cabinet fronts. IKEA’s vision is that this feature will spread to involve the entire househo

Ljus kan användas till många saker, allt från att sända radiosignaler och skicka information i optiska fibrer, till att lysa upp hem och utvinna energi via solceller. Det ljus vi är mest vana vid som människor är ett intervall av våglängder mellan 400 och 700 nanometer (en nanometer är en miljarddels meter), som svarar mot alla synliga färger mellan rött och violett. Ett sätt att undersöka sammansIn this thesis we discuss a theoretical description of ultrafast and non-linear spectroscopy. Due to the high intensities and ultrashort pulse durations involved in such experiments, it is necessary to use an explicitly time-dependent formalism. In addition, many of the systems we have considered exhibit strong interactions between the constituent particles, such as electron-electron, electron-nuc
