Syfte: I denna uppsats vill vi uppmärksamma och diskutera rekryterares hantering av problematiken kring modifiering av kravspecifikationen. Genom att visa hur man kan förstå rekryterarnas hantering av kravspecifikationen som en essentiell del av rekryteringsprocessen, syftar denna studie till att lyfta fram en ny bild av en specifik del av rekryteringsprocessen samt en ny bild av rekryterarens rol
According to the EU Water Framework Directive, all Member States are obliged to survey and analyze their water according to river basins. The directive was implemented into Swe-dish law in 2004. At the same time, Sweden's five water authorities were formed to coordi-nate the water management at regional and municipal levels. Furthermore, the municipalities in Sweden are imposed to develop muni
Climate change has become a societal issue that has gained increasing attention in recent years. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, IPCC, presented in year 2007 its Fourth Assessment Report, pointing out different scenarios about the future climate, including the anticipated sea level rises during this century. More recent climate research has shown that sea levels are most likely to r
A society's greenhouse gas emissions are closely related to its volumes of consumption. Efficiency gains and changes in the consumption mix are important, but will not be enough to reach sustainable levels of consumption-based emission. This thesis examines the literature on degrowth and sufficient consumption levels to find out what the current knowledge and proposed policy strategies are. Un
Climate change is predicted to lead to an increase in the frequency and severity of climate extremes and variability (IPCC 2007). The result is an increase in climate-related disasters in a world where, even without climate change, the number of disasters is already on the rise (UNISDR 2010). Also Sweden will be severely affected by climate change as temperatures are expected to rise more in North
The establishment of green areas in urban environment for ecological sustainability is a strategy recognized in academics as well as in politics and governance. This thesis investigates how and to what extent various measures and interventions of increased urban green areas and their ecological benefits may contribute to ecological sustainability and improve urban life quality. In addition to a l
Öresundsregionen är en djupt integrerad region som utgörs av södra delen av Sverige och östra delen av Danmark. Länderna sammanbinds av Öresundsbron som går mellan städerna Malmö och Köpenhamn och dagligen pendlar över 20 000 människor över sundet. Länderna har idag olika valutor och därmed olik valutapolitik, något som kan upplevas som ett hinder för vidare integration i regionen. Syftet med de
Problem background: In the beginning of 2011 the working capital levels rose drastically for companies operating in the polymer industry, as a result of macroeconomic factors and changes of supply market conditions. Suppliers were allocating capacity and uncertainty spread among buyers, which resulted in that large volumes were purchased in order to secure supply. Moreover, the suppliers were dict
Bakgrund: Det är möjligt för företag att minska sin miljöpåverkan och reducera sina kostnader genom att ta hänsyn till returlogistik i alla delar av sin verksamhet. När det handlar om den fysiska distributionen i försörjningskedjan, så handlar returlogistik främst om att återanvända lastbärare som används för transport av gods. Dynapac Compaction Equipment AB är ett företag som använder sig av retBackground: Companies can lower their environmental impact and reduce their costs by considering reverse logistics in their operations. In the area of physical distribution, reverse logistics is concerned with the reusage of load carriers used for the transportation of goods. Dynapac Compaction Equipment AB, is a company which uses returnable load carriers (racks), for the transport of large and h

In this report the relationship between the stiffness of the bracing structure and the critical load is investigated. The investigation is concentrated to wooden beams over one span exposed to a point load in the middle of the span, according to Figure 1a. The analysis is based on literature, finite element modeling and laboratory experiments When the lateral bracing is placed on the same level, o
Since the 1980´s, the municipalities in Sweden are independent actors in the reception of refugees. The local refugee reception occurs through a signed agreement between the Swedish state and the municipality. In this thesis I examine what kind of motives and arguments effects the decision of the local refugee policy, by a case study of the City of Malmö. In this study, a rational theory of motiv
This thesis examines the Swedish government’s argumentation regarding the security hand-over and the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan. An argumentation-analysis is performed on three propositions from the government covering 2010-2012, concerning the situation in Afghanistan. Operating with a theoretical framework - claiming that small states, in this case Sweden, are highly affected by allia
Despite policy efforts to reduce waste and to recycle material, household waste in Europe continues to grow. In Sweden, most 290 municipalities use volume-based tariffs for household waste management. This report is about two alternative policies for household waste: (1) a weight based waste system and (2) a system of kerbside containers for sorted waste (FNI). It is a case study of policy develo
The presence of God and religion in America is a well known fact, and for many Americans also of great importance. My interest places focus on the none-believers living in a country where God always is present. The religious climate in America is changing and the amount of none-believers is growing progressively. Changes are necessary to make the balance of power between believers and none-believe
This paper explores the nature of migration in Egypt from a Sub-altern realist perspective. As a criticism of traditional realist theories, Sub-altern realism argues that states in the Third World are defined by their weak state structure, which in turn changes their behavior both towards other states and on the domestic arena. This paper is based on findings from a Minor Field Study that I conduc
This essay compares the two Swedish municipalities Landskrona and Värnamo, in order to understand the difference in achieved integration on the labor market. By using Mill’s method of disagreement, and conducting interviews with persons with key positions in the integration process, based on theories of integration, the essay reaches the conclusion that authorities can be the difference between su
Europeanization has become a key concept to changes due to transfer of competences to EU level. While extensive research has been performed on institutional dynamics and also on the rise of private interest representation at EU-level, little is said about domestic civil society organizations (CSOs) and their integration in EU politics. By zooming out of Brussels we come to realize that also domest
