With the global population projected to reach eight billion by 2022, the world faces significant challenges associated with rapid urbanization. The migration of individuals from rural to urban areas in search of improved opportunities exacerbates the strain on resources, posing obstacles such as housing shortages, infrastructure demands, and food scarcity in growing cities. This thesis aims to add
I debatten om förändringarna i lagen om anställningsskydd, har den ökade möjligheten till omställning och kompetensutveckling presenterats som vinsten för arbetstagarsidan. Reformen innebär att anställningsskyddet minskat på en mängd områden och att arbetstagaren som kompensation getts ökade möjligheter till kompetensutveckling och omställning. Som en del av den ökade möjligheten till kompetensutvFollowing the reform of the Employment Protection Act, where enhanced options for employee upscaling and re-skilling were introduced, a debate has centered around the consequences that this will have for the employee. The Employment Protection Act reform includes a weakening of employment protection in general. As compensation, the employees have been granted enhanced opportunities to engage in co
In a global effort to reduce the human impact on the environment researchers and companies are looking into the prospect to extract valuable resources from discarded waste stacked up in landfills all over the world. Through excavating old landfills (also called: Landfill Mining) greenhouse gas emissions can be avoided, important rescores recovered and at the same time reduce pollutants and provide
In this thesis I study international space law’s rules on international responsibility and international liability for private satellite launches. I have used a legal dogmatic method to interpret these rules, before subjecting them to an economic analysis on how they will affect the behaviour of private actors and States. Finally I propose solutions to increase the economic efficiency of three dif
Den 25 maj 2018 träder den nya dataskyddsförordningen, GDPR, ikraft. Syftet med GDPR är att skydda enskilda personers rätt till personuppgifter. GDPR kommer att ersätta det nu gällande Dataskyddsdirektivet, vilket i svensk rätt huvudsakligen införlivats genom PUL. GDPR speglar i större utsträckning den digitaliserade värld vi lever i. En stor förhoppning med GDPR är att de nu rådande skillnaderna On the 25th of May 2018 the new data protection regulation will take effect. The purpose of GDPR is to protect people’s personal data. GDPR will replace the current data protection directive, which in the Swedish judicial system has been implemented through PUL. GDPR more closely reflects on the digitalised world we live in today. A great hope with GDPR is that the current differences in the level
Katalonien och Baskien blev egna autonomier efter hundratals år av kamp, det skedde i samband med Spaniens demokratisering 1978, då Francisco Francos 36 åriga diktatur upphörde i samband med hans bortgång 1975. Denna studie har undersökt och analyserat de båda regionerna utifrån teorier om territoriell, icke-territoriell samt kulturell och ekonomisk autonomi för att se varför Baskien men inte Kata
In this thesis the effects of utilizing the sample covariance matrix in the estimation of the global minimum variance (GMV) portfolio are presented. When the number of assets, N, are close to the number of observations, T, the sample covariance matrix approaches singularity, leading to a lot of uncertainties in form of estimation error. Due to that the computations of the sample GMV portfolio are
För att arbetsgivare ska kunna bedriva konkurrenskraftig och effektiv verksamhet krävs det att arbetstagare besitter kunskap och kompetens som motsvarar företagsbehoven. Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera rättsläget kring arbetsgivarens möjligheter respektive begränsningar att tillgodogöra sig behovet av den kompetens som erfordras. Genom att ha undersökt omständigheter där arbetsgivaren la
This paper examines how trust in national and European institutions, as surveyed in the Eurobarometer, has been affected by the 2008 global financial crisis. By using a recently published database on financial crises in Europe for the EU-countries between 1999 and 2017 a series of panel regressions gives strong support for the hypothesis that a financial crisis has a negative effect on institution
With the need for housing in Sweden high and steadily growing, there is now more emphasis than before on urban expansion in cities. Built areas consist of social relationships, structures and contacts which can be described as social risks when they lead to negative effects. Social effects are altered by changes in the physical environment, which is why it is essential to properly plan out these e

The research concludes that agro-processing activities a
This feasabilitystudie aims to investigate fidelity and effect during the implementation process of an imported intervention in Sweden. Attachment & Biobehavioral Catch-up (ABC) is a 10-session, evidence-based parenting program. The current paper describes the implementation effort, including cultural adaptation and pandemic effect of switching from physical home visiting to digital home visit
With the rise in urbanization and cities fulfilling sustainability challenges, companies across the globe are moving towards circularity. One approach adopted towards circularity is of reverse logistics where companies take back EOL/EOU products. In the furniture industry, this approach towards circularity is coupled with consumers being asked to transport the EOL/EOU furniture to second-hand/ret
Med den ökade urbaniseringen som de flesta städer står inför, är utbyggnad av större anläggningar och hushåll oundviklig. Denna expansion medför ett behov av mer tillgänglig markyta att bygga på, vilket även innebär att platser med varierande markförhållandena behöver utnyttjas. Detta kan resultera i att markegenskaperna inte alltid är passande för stora anläggningar. En lösning till detta problemWith the increased urbanization major cities are facing, expansion of larger facilities and households are inevitable. Expansion means larger areas of the surface needs to be used where the risk of varying subsurface soil properties increases with larger surface areas. This can result in soil properties that might not be stable enough to support these constructions. A potential solution to solve t
System on Chip (SoC) designs contain a variety of Intellectual Property (IP) cores, including digital signal processing blocks, media and graphics processing units, as well as processing core units that employ multiple-port memories to enhance performance and bandwidth. These memories allow parallel read/write operations from the same memory blocks from different ports. Due to the enormous number

The purpose of this essay is to show how the Vinnova financed pilot project Internet of Things (IoT) can be regarded as an expression of the marketing of places as a management of control measure. The so-called Place marketing is a theory referring to the development of brands and identities in geographic regions as an instrument for political orientation as well as a transitional process. The stu
Våld i nära relationer utgör ett erkänt samhällsproblem. De våldsoffer som befinner sig i en anknytningsrelation möter på grund av dagens migrationsrättsliga regelverk särskilda svårigheter, samtidigt som de i egenskap av att vara nyanlända är särskilt sårbara. Denna uppsats utreder ur ett intersektionellt perspektiv hur skyddet för våldsoffer i anknytningsrelationer bör stärkas. Uppsatsen identifDomestic violence is recognised as a major social problem. Victims of violence whose migration status depend on that of their spouse face certain complex problems due to the legal framework of today. Furthermore, they might be even more vulnerable due to their migration status. This essay examines, through the concept of intersectionality, how the protection of migrant victims of violence could be
Syftet med den här undersökningen var att få en djupare förståelse för män som utsätts för våld i nära relation av en kvinnlig partner. Vi har undersökt vilka normer som finns inbäddade i det faktum att en man blir slagen av en kvinna och hur dessa normer har påverkat männens syn på sin egen roll och valet att inte söka hjälp ur sin situation. Empirin har samlats in genom fyra självbiografier skriThe purpose of this study was to get a deeper understanding of men who are exposed to domestic violence by their female partners. We have examined the embedded norms related to the fact, that a man gets beaten by a woman, and how these norms have affected these men’s views on their role and their choice not to seek assistance to get out of their situation.
