Alongside global acknowledgements of the gendered nature of conflict, the academic field of transitional justice is shifting towards the newly emerging concept of transformative justice. Within this, reparations are particularly seen as the most agent-centric tool for structural transformation. In northeastern Nigeria, the conflict between Boko Haram and the state has seen a prevalence of conflict
The objective of this thesis is to understand how a retail space could facilitate a broader adoption of a novel technology. I aim to respond to the following questions, (i) ‘What characterises the practice of operating a smart technology for the home?’, (ii) ‘Which are the main barriers to reaching out to a broader range of customers, as opposed to only the technology interested customers?’, and (
"It´s difficult, there is a big grey zone”. A qualitative study of preschool teachers’ thoughts on the obligation to report There are several professionals in Sweden who are obligated by law to report when they suspect a possible case of a child being maltreated. The aim of this study was to capture preschool teachers’ thoughts on what that obligation means. How does it work in the field? D
Idag tillhör persondatorerna våra käraste prylar, men så har det inte alltid varit. Kring 1980, då persondatorerna slog igenom i Sverige, sågs "datafrågorna" istället tillhöra samhällets stora utmaningar, tillsammans med bland annat energiförsörjningen och miljöfrågorna. Dessa datafrågor debatterades häftigt, och i fackpressen kritiserades särskilt Sveriges Television för att ge en allde
The political analysis that followed the eruption of rioting across Britain in 2011 resulted in a broad consensus that single-parent home environments, poor parenting and the lack of heteronormative familial structures were to blame. Little progressive political debate could be found in mainstream media, either about the nature of single-parent familial life, or about co-contributory factors that
This is a qualitative study with the objective to find an understanding for how social workers who work with people affected by honor-related violence, receive and investigate the phenomenon and to illuminate their knowledge on the subject. We collected women´s stories from a source that contains authentic anonymous narratives and prepared one “story” as a vignette. It was presented accompanied wi
Idrottskvinnor och deras prestationer marginaliseras och trivialiseras av massmedier genom en genusstereotypisk framställning. Samtidigt påvisar forskning att media är en av de mest inflytelserika formerna för att generera könsvärden. Vad och hur media väljer att rapportera om idrottande kvinnor blir således avgörande för våra värderingar och attityder, något som inte enbart påverkar synen på idro
This research intends to explore the mental health of female Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh. Specifically, it analyzes reasons for mental disorders and how Rohingya women cope, from the perspectives of humanitarian aid workers. Mental disorders are defined from a universalist perspective and the analysis is guided by theoretical frameworks of Tay et. al (2018) and Kleinman (1978). The research de
The politicization of scientific facts, such as climate change, is a highly debated phenomenon in the US. It is well established that climate change is both real, and human-caused. Still, significant parts of the American political community refuse to adhere to this scientific fact. During the Trump administration this resulted in the American Environmental Protection Agency becoming the focal poi
The continued increase of greenhouse gas emissions and the growing danger this poses has led to the emergence of several strategies to guide society away from further environmental degradation. Green growth is the pertinent global strategy, it calls for continued growth with the hopes to advance toward technocratic solutions. Conversely, the degrowth movement has emerged as a counter-hegemonic cri
In 1994 Rwanda experienced a genocide that took an estimated 800.000 lives in the course of 100 days. This essay takes the form of a case study that examines Rwanda’s transitional justice process that followed and its abilities to create a gender-just peace. The study is based on a theoretical framework that links a feminist reading of transitional justice and gender-just peace together with gende
This thesis analyses the deferred payment method of Art. 5 para. 2 ATAD. It asks whether or not it is proportionate to mitigate liquidity disadvantages stemming from exit taxes. Such disadvantages are a general pattern of the Court of Justices case law on exit taxation. The analysis is therefore based on that respective case law. The thesis examines the roots of the deferred payment method, elabor
The topic of human migration and displacement has become more important in recent years and will continue to do so in the following decades. Voices become louder claiming that climate change is a driving factor for increased displacement and migration. Increasing unsuitable living conditions due to unpredictable weather patterns and increased number of extreme events are putting pressure on the so
Background: Guidelines recommend systemic thrombolysis (ST) as first-line reperfusion therapy for highrisk pulmonary embolism (PE), however, clinical concerns regarding bleeding risk frequently limit its use in clinical practice. Catheter-directed therapy (CDT) should be considered when ST is contraindicated or has failed but is increasingly used outside these recommendations despite limited guide

Contact dermatitis from colophony-containing adhesive tapes for blister prevention has previously been reported among Swedish conscripts. Objectives: To present the investigation of suspected allergic contact dermatitis among Norwegian military personnel exposed to medical adhesive tapes during service. Patients/Materials/Methods: Fou
