Enligt regelverken tillämpliga i icke-internationella väpnade konflikter, gemensamma artikeln 3 i Genèvekonventionerna samt tilläggsprotokoll 2, erbjuds skydd till civila som inte direkt deltar i strid. En gemensam definition av vad som anses vara direkt deltagande i strid existerar inte i tillämpliga traktat i den internationella humanitära rätten och inte heller förser nationell eller internatioThe regulations applicable in non-international armed conflicts, Common Article 3 to the Geneva Conventions I-IV and Additional Protocol II, offer protection to civilians who do not directly participate in the hostilities. There is no commonly accepted definition of direct participation in hostilities in treaty-based international humanitarian law, State practice or international jurisprudence.

Climate policy and Right-wing populist parties are not often associated with each other. The aim of this thesis is to examine four right wing populist parties in the Nordics and their climate policy through a combination of descriptive statistics and idea analyse of political texts. The theoretical outlook was then based on theories regarding party and issue competition. The parties that was exami

Clean sources of energy have increasingly gained importance as a means to mitigate climate change. This study analysed the relationship between CO2 emissions, GDP, GDP2, fossil fuel consumption, hydroelectricity consumption, new renewables (solar, wind, biomass) consumption, and biofuels consumption (all variables are per capita) in the context of the environmental Kuznets curve theory in Brazil f

To defend a market, the acting firms need defence strategies. The eight Arctic States have all published their own national strategic document for the Arctic region. In the Strategies they describe how they will act in this Arctic market. The Arctic is an area undergoing a change. With the last decades of melting ices as a result of the increased global warming, the Arctic is a more available regi

Commonly, air pollution is treated by the European Union (EU) and its member states as a structural problem with technical, one-size-fit-all solutions. The EU has the ambition to follow the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals , Agenda 2030 , in which, for example, gender equality is highlighted. Yet, the legislation on toxic air does not explicitly mention how they aim to achieve social

Följande uppsats undersöker ifall principen om respekt för förvärvade rättigheter kan användas för att skydda etableringsfriheten för juridiska personer efter en avtalslöst Brexit. Sedan Storbritanniens folkomröstning har akademiker spekulerat över principens tillämpning för att skydda de rättigheter som härstammar från EU-rätten. Vissa hävdar att principen är tillämplig medan andra hävdar att en This thesis examines if the principle of respect for acquired rights can be used to protect the right of establishment for legal persons in the case of a No-Deal Brexit. Following the referendum, scholars and politicians have speculated over the Principle’s applicability on EU rights. Some claim that the Principle can be used to protect EU rights while others considers it unreasonable. This thesis

The primacy of hegemonic structures that shape political processes is relevant to purvey an extensive grasp of which central power dynamic is in effect. The United States has a significant role in the international context and frequently incurs the attention of the world when dealing with issues of global nature. This paper studies how American Exceptionalism, a tendency on the U.S. part to view i

Distinktionsprincipen är en av de mest fundamentala principerna i internationell humanitär rätt. Distinktionsprincipen grundades i St. Petersburgdeklarationen från 1868 och syftade till att minska det dödliga våldet mot civila i väpnade konflikter. Principen är nu kodifierad i artikel 48, 51(2) och 52(2) i det första tilläggsprotokollet till Genevekonventionen. Det är lättast att utläsa principen The principle of distinction is one of the cardinal principles of international humanitarian law. The principle of distinction originated in the St. Petersburg Declaration in 1868, aiming to limit the civilian casualties in warfare. The principle is now codified in article 48, 51(2), 52(2) of the 1977 Additional Protocol I to the Geneva Convention. The principle is most prominent in article 48. Th

I följande uppsats undersöks hur publiken konstrueras och positioneras vid grön marknadsföring och hur detta påverkar ett varumärkes trovärdighet. De två objekt som studeras är Oatlys annons Mjölklobbyn vs Oatly – the final countdown samt Coops reklamfilm Kära köttbit. Analysen genomförs med hjälp av en hermeneutisk metod och består av tre delar. Först görs en deskriptiv semiotisk analys av materi

This thesis asks how developments in The Swedish Social Democratic Party’s welfare ideology over the past 70 years can be understood, using the conceptual lenses of Keynesian, Neoliberal and Social Investment welfare ideals. To answer this question, the thesis models a tailor-made seminal analytical tool; a code scheme of numerous operational indicators for Keynesian, Neoliberal and Social Investm

Grundämnena, som bygger upp komplexa molekyler som vårt DNA, är samma material som stjärnor består av. Faktum är att vi människor består till 93 % av så kallat sjärnstoft, eller sjärndamm. De simplaste ämnena, väte och helium, skapades i Big Bang, för ungefär 13,7 miljarder år sedan. De resterande 90 ämnena i periodiska systemet bildas i olika typer av stjärnor och i detta arbete har jag tagit fraPurpose: The purpose of this work is to determine the abundances of neutron-capture elements in solar neighborhood giant stars. This enables constraints to be put on the the cosmic origin of these elements. I have determined abundances of elements produced in both the weak s-process (Cu), the first and second s-process peaks (Y, Zr and La, Ce, Pr, Nd, respectively) and the r-process (Eu, Gd). The

This thesis examines the effect of closing down police stations on crime in Sweden from 1996 to 2011. This is done by analyzing the relationship between the number of crimes in a municipality, the crime rate and the closing down of police stations in 288 Swedish municipalities from 1996 to 2011. A quantitative approach using a difference-in-difference estimator and monthly panel-data from question

Uppsatsen behandlar Oscar Wildes The Picture of Dorian Gray ur ett queerfeministiskt perspektiv, med utgångspunkt i Eve Kosofsky Sedgwicks teorier om framför allt erotiska trianglar och homosociala relationer män emellan. Uppsatsen behandlar även hur "maskulinitet" och "femininitet" representeras i romanen och hur dessa representationer påverkar de tre huvudkaraktärernas hierar

Denna undersökning rör frågan om vilket inflytande förkastningarna i de tektoniska Polotsk- Kurzeme och Småland-Blekingezonerna utövat på det överlagrande sedimenttäckets och den nutida topografins utbildning. Syftet var att bestämma karaktären av denna påverkan och dess tänkbara orsaker. De huvudsakliga undersökningsområdena utgjordes av Polotskdelen av Polotsk-Kurzeme deformationszonen i norra VThis is a study of the influence of the crystalline basement faults of the Polotsk-Kurzeme and the Småland-Blekinge Deformation Zones on the development of the sedimentary cover and the formation of the present topography. The purpose is to define the character and possible causes of this influence. The key target areas of this study are the Polotsk part of the Polotsk-Kurzeme Deformation Zone in

This thesis analyzes climate change from an international law perspective and seeks to demonstrate how the provisions pertaining to the protection and preservation of the marine environment embodied in the United Nations Law of the Sea Convention (“UNCLOS”), coupled with those relating to the compulsory settlement of disputes, can be of use in tackling the climate crisis. We begin by presenting th

The object of this thesis is the Öresund region and the Committee of the Regions (CoR). It may be the first survey to examine a cross-border region such as the Öresund region within the Committee of the Regions and describes how Swedish and Danish CoR-members from this region co-operate within the CoR. Semi-structured elite interviews have been conducted with CoR-members at the sub-national level

The Panama Canal expansion is an external factor on the tanker freight market that is made to change cargo volumes, channel fee income, the average transit time and might also change or create new profitable transportation routes. Shipowners operating in the region will, in one way or another, be affected by this. For tanker shipping companies like Stena Bulk the challenge is to create robustness
