Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), ofta översatt till svenska som företagens samhällsansvar, är något som diskuterats flitigt under de senaste åren. Utvecklingen av CSR har dock pågått sedan 1950-talet och fortsätter att utvecklas än idag. Majoriteten av denna utveckling har skett inom den ekonomiska vetenskapen och inom ramen för företagens arbete med CSR. Det är först under de senaste 20 åreCorporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is something that has been discussed heavily in recent years. The development of CSR has been evolving since the 1950s and continues to evolve today. The majority of this development has taken place in economic science and within the framework of the companies work with CSR. It is only in the last 20 years that lawyers have seriously interested themselves in t

En parts tillgång till information i en rättegång blir ofta avgörande för hur väl denne kan tillvarata sin rätt. Det är som huvudregel upp till parterna själva att anskaffa informationen, men det finns undantag. För de fall en informations-innehavare vid den utomprocessuella informationsanskaffningen inte med-verkar kan domstolen ibland bistå med informationsanskaffningen. InformationsanskaffningA party's access to information is crucial within the litigation process. In the event of a legal dispute, the main rule is that the parties must take care of gathering the necessary information on their own. However, there are exceptions. For those cases where the information holder does not cooperate, the court can assist with the information-gathering. Obtaining information in the event of

I takt med plattformsekonomins utveckling har algoritmisk verksamhetsledning blivit ett allt vanligare inslag för många plattformsarbetare. Nya tekniker möjliggör för alltmer ingripande övervakningssystem med hjälp av artificiell intelligens. Syftet med uppsatsen är därför att, i ljuset av denna utveckling, undersöka plattformsarbetares rätt till privatliv och integritet. Det sker med bakgrund i dAs the platform economy develops, algorithmic management has become an increasingly common feature for many platform workers. New technologies enable increasingly intrusive control systems powered by artificial intelligence. The purpose of this thesis is, therefore, to examine platform wokers’ right to privacy and integrity considering this development. This is done against the backdrop of the Pla

This thesis aims to assess the importance of the use of digital object-based learning (OBL) for public outreach initiatives in archaeology, focusing on a case study involving an Iron Age comb. The goals were to create a virtual learning environment with interactive 3D models, integrate storytelling elements into the virtual learning environment, and a pilot study setup. This thesis is based on the

Denna uppsats baseras på de senaste händelserna med koranbränningar i Sverige, vilket väckt viktiga frågor om omfattningen av yttrandefriheten i enlighet med Artikel 10 i Europakonventionen. Yttrandefriheten är inte utan begränsningar och trots att dess syfte är att skydda åsikter från statlig inbladning, kan den inte rättfärdiga våld eller kränka andra rättigheter som fastställs i EuropakonventioThis thesis is based on the latest Quran burnings in Sweden which have raised important questions about the extent of the freedom of expression in Article 10 of the ECHR. The freedom of expression is not without limitations, while its intent is to safeguard opinions from governmental interference, it cannot justify violence or infringe upon other rights stipulated in the ECHR. This creates a gray

LIDAR-data från mätstationen Polly, som är en del av Arrhenius-laboratoriet och belägen på Stockholms universitets tak, används för att bestämning av planetära gränsskiktshöjden. För detta ändamål användes en stabil ”wavelet covariance transform” metod för analys av LIDAR-datasignalerna från åren 2011-2012. Endast molnfria dagar med högtrycks- förhållande är med i undersökningen för att minska mänLIDAR data from the Polly system on the roof of the Arrhenius laboratory at Stockholm University are used to determine the planetary boundary layers (PBL) height distribution. To this end, a wavelet covariance transform method is employed to analyze LIDAR measured data signals from the years 2011-2012. Only data with high pressure cloud free condition are used to reduce “bad” data. The main result

Populariteten för släktforskning har vuxit under dom senaste åren. Detta beror framför allt på att det blivit avsevärt enklare genom internets framfart. Idag kan privat personer bedriva släktforskning hemifrån då man tidigare behövde hjälp från arkivister och professionella släktforskare.

The finished database should contain basic information about individuals' names, birth, marriage, death, and individuals' relationships such as father, mother, husband/wife and children. This will make up a kind

This essay examines the rhetorical tools and how the different politics choose to use them. We have also chosen to investigate the role of good and bad leadership in individual behaviors and positions. Why does people choose to embrace a particular behavioral pattern and what is it that makes us trust and follow our leader even though it may not be the right thing to do. We choose to compare and e

Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka vad elever säger om de didaktiska aspekterna av Våga!. Våga! är ett utbildningskoncept där musikundervisning och sex- och samlevnadsundervisning möts. Konceptet består av tre delar; en humoristisk, pedagogisk musikföreställning om sex och samlevnad, ett samtal kring föreställningen och ett efterarbetesmaterial. Uppsatsen utgår från Arfwedsson och Arfwedssons (1This essay examines what pupils say about the didactical aspects of Våga! (The Swedish word ”didaktik” is to a large extent equivalent to ”curriculum research”. However, in the lack of an exact translation, the word ”didactics” is used in this abstract, knowing that that word has different connotations in English than in Swedish.) Våga! is an educational concept, in which music education and sexua

Globaliseringen har lett till att ett nytt område inom varumärkesforskningen har vuxit fram, nation branding. Det råder delade meningar på forskningsfältet kring vad begreppet innebär, men den gemensamma nämnaren återfinns i att nation branding är en mer komplicerad variant av traditionell marknadsföring.

In 1994 the Swedish Construction Code, BKR, was changed from being based on material to being based on function. This permitted constructing multi-storey buildings with a bearing framework made of wood, which had been prohibited since the end of the 19th century. There is now a growing in- terest of using wood as a construction material. In Växjö four seven-storey buildings, Limnologen, are under

Glulam is almost exclusively the chosen material of timber frame structures. Of those, three-hinged (three-pin) portal frames are incomparably the most common type. Being both statically determinate and stable against horizontal forces in its own plane offer both practical (basic constructive details) and economical benefits. The design of the haunch allows for various solutions: it can be curved

Calibration is an important _eld and is used everywhere from education, research and industry. Every electrical equipment has to be calibrated during manufacturing and even over time as it is worn down. The purpose of calibration is to come as close as possible to the true value. The question is how close is close enough and how close is possible? Because even the equipment used for calibration ne

Hur väl skyddat är vårt dricksvatten egentligen? Grundvatten är en av våra viktigaste naturtillgångar och utgör en stor del av vårt viktigaste livsmedel, dricksvattnet. Om grundvattnet förorenas får det allvarliga konskvenser. Vattenskyddsområden skall skydda vårt vatten, men hur bra fungerar dessa skydd i praktiken? Genom att studera bakgrundsfakta kan vi kanske komma närmare svaret och bli bättrIn Sweden, about 50% of the production of drinking water comes from groundwater. A groundwater aquifer can be contaminated by pollutants leaking into the aquifers drainage basin and by groundwater flow. One way of securing the quality of drinking water is by the constitution of zones of protection. Such a zone means to protect the groundwater from pollutants and is the sole most important instrum

This study explores entrepreneurial decision-making with respect to non-analytic and analytic behaviour among novice and expert entrepreneurs. In order to understand and categorise subcomponents, or strategies, of these two styles of decision-making think-aloud protocols were used. By exploring and comparing behaviour within various entrepreneurial scenarios, and segmenting it using precise catego

About 25,3 % of the Mozambican population is suffering from undernourishment even though a sufficient amount of food and specifically fruits are produced. Post-harvest losses are estimated to 25 % to 40 % and part of the production is not even harvested due to a short season. A solution has to be found to improve fruit preservation and allow the population to consume what is harvested later. Dryin
