Since the rise of Trumpism, debates in Washington have come to resemble the grotesque dialogues of Aristophanes’ political satires more and more. Has this had an impact on the legislative effectiveness of freshman Republican Con-gressmembers? That is the question this paper seeks to answer. Starting from a dataset comprising all freshmen Republicans serving from 2001 to 2025, a com-posite Legislat

To analyze these documents, w

Sverige för ett aktivt arbete för att förebygga mäns våld mot kvinnor och våld i nära relationer. Där pekas kvinnor med utländsk bakgrund ut som en särskilt sårbar grupp såväl nationellt som internationellt. I Sverige finns en bestämmelse avsedd att skydda kvinnor som utsätts för våld av sin anknytningsperson.

Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) plays an essential role in the biogeochemistry and ecology of surface waters by influencing carbon cycle and microbial respiration. DOC is related to CO2 emissions from inland waters that can be compared to emissions of peatlands and DOC decay is influenced by environmental factors. Traditional methods used to measure DOC decay do not account for environmental factor

As Trump's pursuit of Greenland escalated throughout 2025 and into 2026, the Danish government has faced mounting pressure to justify its authority over the territory, both on the international stage and within its domestic sphere. This thesis examines how Danish officials discursively construct and legitimize that authority in response to repeated threats from Trump. Drawing on Fairclough'

Floods account for the majority of disasters caused by natural hazards worldwide, and their frequency and intensity are set to increase further as a result of climate change. To protect people and property, protective measures such as dykes and drainage systems are put in place.

Med grund i EU:s konstitutionella utrikesrätt (EU External Relations Law) utforskar den här uppsatsen EU:s traktatmakande på luftfartsområdet. Sambandet mellan doktrinen om implicit befogenhet och traktatmakandesystemet på luftfartsområdet har knappast studerats. Dessa båda fenomen har beskrivits i EU External Relations Law respektive i folkrätten på flygfartsområdet. Den här uppsatsen överbryggarThis thesis explores the aviation treaty-making of the EU through the lens of EU External Relations Law. The relationship between the doctrine of implied competence and the treaty-making system in aviation has scarcely been studied.

In December 2025, the European Council approved a €90 bn loan to cover Ukraine’s financing needs for 2026–2027, backed by the EU budget headroom. This marked a pragmatic turn after the initial proposal to leverage €210 bn in immobilised assets from the Central Bank of Russia for a Reparations Loan encountered insurmountable resistance. Belgium, as host to most of the assets, demanded unlimited gua

This thesis examines whether the adoption of automated decision-making (ADM) in Swedish municipal social assistance is followed by changes in welfare outcomes. ADM has spread rapidly across Swedish municipalities, but existing research has mainly studied single cases and organisational processes. I therefore study whether this diffusion leaves a measurable pattern at the municipal level. The analy

Den 1 december 2025 trädde nya straffbestämmelser i kraft i svensk rätt som kriminaliserar oskuldskontroller, oskuldsintyg och oskuldsingrepp. Reformen har motiverats som ett led i arbetet mot hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck som syftar till att stärka skyddet för kvinnor i hedersbaserade kontexter.
