The Covid-19 pandemic is in multiple ways a new type of crisis. The virus outbreak has had a serious impact on global health and has caused an economic downturn that is heavily driven by the restrictions implemented to attenuate the health-crisis. Apart from affecting the mobility of individuals, these restrictions impose additional constraints that policy makers need to adhere to when conducting
This thesis explores the potential of Blockadia resistance, the resistance of frontline communities against fossil fuel extraction, for the climate justice movement. Driven by the need for alternative forms of climate action that address the root causes of climate change, this study examines if local fossil fuel resistance gives rise to a justice based environmentalism. The analysis is conducted o
Human trafficking is an exploitative crime occurring worldwide. According to the International Organization on Migration (IOM), research on human trafficking’s underlying causes is lacking; particularly the role of climate change and natural disasters. Environmentally displaced persons (EDPs) are vulnerable to human trafficking, but this connection is not widely understood. In order to contribute
The EU is reforming its Emissions Trading System (ETS) to increase the price on emissions, phase out free carbon allowances and thus accelerate decarbonization. Alongside these reforms, the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) has been introduced to mitigate the risk of carbon leakage, imposing tariffs on carbon-intensive products imported to the EU. While CBAM will be beneficial for many EU-
Losses and damages induced by climate change are increasingly felt by communities worldwide, disproportionately affecting communities relying on subsistence agriculture. Peru is one of the countries most vulnerable to losses and damages, due to its high exposure to climatic risks and the relative vulnerability of its population. To respond to climate-driven loss, the Warsaw International Mecha
Background: People with hemophilia (PwH) or von Willebrand disease (VWD) are at risk of joint bleeding, which can lead to hemophilic arthropathy. Point-of-care musculoskeletal ultrasound (POC-MSKUS) is increasingly used to detect joint bleeds, but a comprehensive compilation of available independent scanning protocols and their respective measurement properties is missing. Objectives: This study a
Modified ZYMO DNA/RNA miniprep extraction protocol written in a user friendly way to reduce in-process-decisions and process time. Sample type is organic soil, peat, from a degraded rich fenThis protocol includes two modifications to tackle clogged filters. Samples were centrifuged for 45 seconds instead of 30 seconds in first pass through filters as 100 ul to 200 ul sample remained trapped above

Global climate policy negotiations have become increasingly complicated with the rise of the socalled emerging powers as they have seen both great economic growth and increased emissions of greenhouse gasses – yet they continue to hold a developing country, or non-Annex I, status under the UNFCCC, which determines their responsibilities for addressing the climate crisis. This thesis examines the
There have been several accounts of suicide attacks in the last few years; and although male attackers outnumber female attackers, the number of female suicide bombers has been on the rise. This thesis analyzes the motivation of Muslim female suicide bombers using Durkheim’s theory on suicide and society. Interviews with experts on suicide and radicalization were conducted to provide a perspective
We now have entered the Anthropocene. Humanity is the new geological force drastically changing the systems of the Earth. At least this is the story told by natural scientists. Social scientists are critical of this ‘natural’ narrative as it cannot deal with the social dimension of geological changes. This is problematic with regard to understanding the relation between social justice and ecologic
Over the past two decades, immigrant-receiving countries have been confronted with honour crimes. In a number of Western European countries, there have been cases of police failure to intervene in cases of honour crimes occurring in migrant communities. The authorities responses to honour crimes have consistently been inadequate, as they do not take victims of honour crimes seriously and fail to p
This thesis focuses upon generating a Sámi assessment of the EU’s addressal of the rights and needs of indigenous peoples in the EU’s extensive development of space infrastructures in the Arctic. The central puzzle derives from the EU’s oft-presented claim that indigenous peoples will be engaged with, included in, and will benefit from said space development activities; previous literature explori
Competition policy is important for the promotion of fair competition, preventing abuse of market power and protecting consumer and business interests. It is thus an area that builds and moulds itself according to the fabric or structure of society and eventually evolves by habitually adjusting to the dynamics of government economies. Despite the different economic dynamics between the European Un
This comparative study, which includes narrative, rhetoric, and reception analyses of two films depicting the current war in Ukraine—Bucha and 20 Days in Mariupol—explores the differences in how these films are received by various parties involved in the conflict, specifically Ukraine and russia, as well as by other countries affected by the war. The paper also features a chapter on the russian pr
Soil temperature fluctuations are typical at high latitudes in early spring or late autumn. Freeze-thaw cycles (FTCs) occur when the soil temperature fluctuates around 0°C, causing a change in the state of the soil solution. Due to climate change, FTCs are predicted to become more frequent and intense, especially in the Arctic, Antarctic, and cold temperate regions. In this study, two experiments
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this multicentric registry was to assess the outcomes of "anteRior versus posteRior divisional bRanches Of the hYpogastric artery as distAl landing zone for iLiac branch devices (R3OYAL)."METHODS: The main exposure of interest for the purpose of this study was the internal iliac artery (IIA) divisional branch (anterior vs posterior) that was used as distal landing zone.

A wideband power amplifier (PA), with 88% fractional bandwidth operating in the 700 MHz to 1.8 GHz range, which covers most of the standardized narrowband internet-of-things (NB-IoT) and LTE-M bands, is fully integrated in 22 nm CMOS FDSOI. A single-stage differential amplifier core, combined with an on-chip balun, realizes a single-ended output. A stacked circuit architecture, with 3.3 V LDMOS tr
Objectives: To compare the predictive performance and potential clinical usefulness of risk calculators of the European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer (ERSPC RC) with and without information on prostate volume. Methods: We studied 6 cohorts (5 European and 1 US) with a total of 15,300 men, all biopsied and with pre-biopsy TRUS measurements of prostate volume. Volume was categori
