The main argument of the thesis is that multinational companies (MNCs) can promote democracy through corporate social responsibility (CSR). MNCs hold some prerequisites giving them the means to create positive changes. But they lack one important prerequisite: knowledge about local conditions. Therefore the best CSR result is reached through partnerships with local NGOs. H&M's CSR-work in

Förvaltningsmyndigheter är en stor och olikartad grupp vilken bör särskiljas från samlingsbegreppet, och det i dagligt tal använda begreppet, myndighet. Detta har betydelse inte minst ur ett lagtekniskt perspektiv då förvaltningslagen (1986:223), FL, endast ska tillämpas av förvaltningsmyndigheter. Vilka myndigheter som omfattas är dock inte helt klart, då en tydlig definition saknas. Inför att Administrative authorities are a large and heterogeneous group which should be separated from what is referred to as public authorities. The Administrative Procedure Act is only applicable to administrative authorities. What public authorities that are included are not easy to determine as there is no clear definition. When an administrative authority is to make a decision that involves exercise

In the event of a nuclear weapon detonation or a power plant accident radionuclides will deposit on the ground. It is then important to identify and quantify the radionuclides to obtain information necessary for radiation protection efforts like relocation and decontamination. Radiation protection instruments with beta probes can be used as search instruments but the small surface of the probe an
The purpose of this study is to get a better understanding over people who work in the civil society work, their commitment and the result of their work with the help of Bourdieus theories concerning capital, fields and doxa. I’ve done five interviews with people working at an organization that has a goal to put young people to work. My first question is how the employee’s capital is developed. Du

Buildings are getting taller due to increased urbanisation and densification of cities. More advanced construction methods and the desire to construct impressive buildings is also supporting the trend. Due to their inherent slenderness resulting in low eigenfrequencies, these buildings are susceptible to wind-induced vibrations which can be highly disturbing for occupants. Already barely perceivab
