Den här uppsatsen undersöker de positiva och negativa effekter en subventionering av utbildning framkallar i en ekonomi. En investering i humankapitalet är en viktig del av produktionen och påverkar därmed inkomstnivåerna i positiv riktning. Samtidigt ger subventioneringen upphov till kostnader som kan påverka produktionen negativt och förorsaka låga initiala inkomster, lägre konsumtion och lägre

Då HovR över Skåne och Blekinge, mål nr. B 2802-10, avkunnade sin dom den 21 september 2011 hade ytterligare en frikännande misshandelsdom behandlats av det svenska rättssystemet. Den tilltalade hade piskat målsäganden med olika redskap så att skador uppkommit. Det som skiljde detta mål från ett vanligt misshandelsmål, var att målsäganden hade samtyckt till de olika handlingarna, som en del av ettAs the Court of Appeals for Skåne and Blekinge, case no.

Skuldkrisen drabbade Europa hårt år 2010. Det var flera länder som till exempel Irland, Portugal och Grekland som inte kunde betala tillbaka sina lån och finansiera sina optioner. Tyskland var beredda att hjälpa till, men Eu:s regelverk (Fördraget om Europeiska Unionens funktionssätt) förhindrade det. De fann lyckligtvis en kortsikitg väg att kringå regelverket. Tyskland och Frankrike tyckte inte
En växande utmaning för dagens organisationer är hållbart företagande och införande av miljöledningssystem, dvs. strukturerat och systematiskt miljöarbete (Naturvårdsverket, 2003). Studien syftar till att empiriskt undersöka tre dimensioner av medarbetarskap (kunskap och lärande, demokratiska processer och lärande) och samt tre förändringsfaktorer kopplade till införande av miljöledningssystem (at
The use of conditional cash transfers (CCTs) as means of combating poverty has increased considerably the past decade. CCTs are safety net programs that transfer cash to targeted poor households, often to the mothers, on the condition that those households make pre-specified investments in the human capital of their children. The conditions are often criticised because the conditions only applies
The advances in highly automated and autonomous transportation systems over the last decade have generated great interest in topics in the safe navigation of land vehicles. With distributed control strategies employed in the majority of applications of autonomous vehicles, such as traffic and formation control, the much-required resilience takes the form of fault-tolerance with respect to informat
Early metastatic spread and clonal expansion of individual mutations result in a heterogeneous tumour landscape in metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC). Substantial molecular heterogeneity of common drug targets, such as membranous NECTIN4, FGFR3 mutations, PDL1 or immune phenotypes, has been documented between primary and metastatic tumours. However, translational and clinical studies frequently do
Abstract—In numerous image-based studies, such as cell studies,a plethora of information is embedded in cell objects, whichmust first be accurately extracted before it can be utilized forfurther downstream analysis and linked to biological processesexplored in the original experiment. One such technique forthis purpose is instance segmentation. In our study, whichcell death and associated pathways
Schlieren imaging has been established as a reliable optical measurement technique for flame visualizations and retrieval of laminar burning velocity information. However, it is off limited capability and adaptability due to the optical configuration of a conventional Schlieren setup. In this regard, background oriented Schlieren (BOS) provides a unique opportunity to quantitatively characterize d
