Semi-natural grasslands in Scandinavia have been created by humans since many millennia ago, but the agricultural intensification in the last few centuries caused them to decline heavily. Accordingly, the biodiversity associated to these open, nutrient-poor habitats declined as well and many remnant populations are slowly declining and threatened to go extinct. In this study, I focused on declin

Reduced growth rates in saturated developed economies have put increasing pressure on multinational companies (MNCs) to expand to rapidly developing emerging markets and capitalize on their value potential. Yet, this value potential comes with several challenges which are very different from what firms experience in developed countries, especially with regards to the bottom of the pyramid. The Tra

The emergence of artificial intelligence, especially machine-learning methods, challenges the set of legal guarantees put in place in Europe to combat discrimination and ensure equal treatment. This paper will focus on cases of algorithmic discrimination in the context of recruitment as a business practice. Particular in the field of recruitment of workers, which has always been a field where EU n

The purpose of this study was to gain deeper knowledge about men’s violence against women and how women comprehended violent incidents in their relationships, and how they made violence understandable for themselves. Our intention was to gain a deeper understanding of the reasons women gave for staying in violent relationships. The method chosen for this study was a thematic analysis, using five d

Denna uppsats handlar om den politiska idén och ambitionen om att få den svenska landsbygden att leva och växa, genom att hjälpa mindre företag där att utvecklas. Den politiska retoriken om svensk landsbygd, har under lång tid handlat om att få avfolkningen att avstanna och vända. Ändå upplever de svenska landsbygdskommunerna fortfarande avfolkning eller mycket låg tillväxt. Genom kulturanalys av In this thesis I am approaching the idea and political ambition of making the Swedish rural areas come alive. By having the public sector aid small businesses to start up, develop and grow, the idea is to create attraction to rural places. The political rhetorics about Swedish rurality is, and has been for a long time, that the rural needs to be repopulated; and initiatives are taken on a politica

The aim of this thesis was to analyze how drug- and alcohol-free people make sense of their experiences from living in a society with drinking culture. The method for this study consisted of qualitative interviews with five abstainers. A constructivist approach was used, i.e. the narratives in this thesis were seen as subjective narratives, constructed by the storyteller. The framework of this the

The 2009 Lisbon Treaty introduced the Early Warning Mechanism into the EU decision-making process. Under this mechanism, National Parliaments monitor the compliance of EU legislative proposals with the principle of subsidiarity by issuing yellow cards in cases of violation. It is argued that in doing so, they meet a collective action problem in form of an assurance problem, hence will only ineffec

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Naturkatastrofer är något som Sverige är relativt förskonat från. Massrörelser, alltså markrörelser i jordtäcke eller berg såsom lerskred, slamströmmar och bergras, är däremot relativt vanligt förekommande runt om i landet. Det är dessutom så att frekvensen av den här typen av fenomen förväntas öka i Sverige till följd av framtida klimatförändringar. De områdenRecent studies indicate a widespread but largely overlooked hazard of contaminant mobilisation and transport in connection to mass movement activity into surface water systems in Sweden. Concerns are exacerbated by predicted effects of climate change, which suggest national increases in rates of precipitation, pore water pressures, run -off, erosion and mass movement occurrence. In this study, the

Confocal fluorescence microscopy is an optical imaging technique that has high resolution and can be used to detect individual fluorescing molecules. It is commonly used in biology, medicine and materials research. A confocal microscope system contains scanning mirrors, objective lens, laser and detector. The laser beam is directed by 2 scanning mirrors and it will be focused by an objective lens

Ungdomar befinner sig i en utsatt position på den europeiska arbetsmarknaden. De saknar av naturliga skäl ofta den kompetens och arbetslivserfarenhet som efterfrågas av arbetsgivaren, samtidigt som ungdomars anställningar – när de väl erhåller en – tenderar att vara mer otrygga än vad som är fallet för andra kategorier av arbetstagare. Finanskrisen år 2008 har i flera avseenden inneburit en förvärYoung workers are facing challenging times in the European labour market. Naturally, young workers often lack the skills and work experience required by employers, but to make matters worse, when young workers do find employment, it tends to be less stable compared to the older generation of more established workers. The 2008 financial crisis, which negative impact is still being felt in Europe as

Jag har i detta arbete tagit fram en metod för att mäta mängden fett i muskelceller som vare sig kräver vävnadsprover eller nålstick. Metoden ger också en bild av fettfördelningen i vävnaden. Detta kan vara mycket användbart vid utveckling av läkemedel, men också vid diabetes- och fetmaforskning. Muskelceller innehåller ett bränsleförråd i form av en droppe fett. För diabetespatienter och som en b"Introduction Cardiac steatosis, or overstorage of fat in the cardiac muscle cells, is a possible side effect from drugs treating diabetes mellitus. Therefore, a non-invasive means of fat quantification is needed during drug development. The aim of this master thesis is to develop a method to quantify the fraction intra-myocellular fat in the cardiac muscle of rats using magnetic resonance im
