The Social Democratic Workers Party of Sweden portrays itself as a party for all workers. However, with the precarious situation of the newly emerged crowdworkers the status quo, in terms of letting the unions handle it, is not enough of a solution, which is puzzling. Or in other words, it is not seen as a strong enough action. Therefore, three hypotheses on why the Social Democratic Workers Party

Denna uppsats syftar till att ge en rättshistorisk redogörelse för tvångsvården av alkohol- och narkotikamissbrukare i Sverige, från den första lagen om behandling alkoholister 1913 till 1981 års LVM. Studien fokuserar på lagstiftningens målgrupp, gränsdragningen mellan lagstiftning om tvångsvård av missbrukare och psykiatrisk tvångsvård samt ansvaret för att ansöka om och finansiera tvångsvåThis thesis aims to descibe the legal history of cumpulsory care of alcohol and substance abusers in Sweden from the first Act on the Treatment of Alcoholics in 1913 up until the Care of Abusers Special Provisions Act of 1981. Specifically, the study centers around the definition of the target group of said legislation, the demarkation between legislation on compulsory treatment of abusers an

This thesis set out to map the relation Swedish farmers have to their occupation and production, while also investigating what challenges farmers experience which in turn might affect social sustainability in Swedish agriculture negatively. Agriculture was approached as a case of low social sustainability based on the fact that more than one-third of Swedish farmers are over retiring age, while yo

The development of Mälaräng in the southwestern part of Stockholm aims to bridge the social and economic gap in between neighboring areas Mälarhöjden and Bredäng. Theories of the Just City by Susan Fainstein and the Lively City constructed by Jane Jacobs are applied to investigate the planning of Mälaräng regarding social, economic and physical environment-factors through the lens of justice and l

Public Opinion about Sweden during the COVID-19 Pandemic and Implications for its Nation Brand: A Sentiment Analysis This thesis seeks to expand the understanding of nation brand image perceptions by exploring the opinions of international audiences about Sweden during the COVID-19 pandemic in the form of sentiments. Given the strong link between a country’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic and

Ett resultat av den Europeiska unionens utvidgning är att migration från unionens fattigare länder blivit ett vanligt fenomen. Den här studien undersöker euroskepticism och euroskeptiska oppositionspartier i Sverige, med fokus på Vänsterpartiet och Sverigedemokraterna och de idéer som ligger till grund för deras föreskrivna politik i frågan. För att kunna analysera respektive partis idéer har vi g

Neuroepithelial stem (NES) cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), hold promise as a novel cell therapy for treating various neurological disorders such as, neurodegenerative diseases, spinal cord injury, and stroke. NES cells’ therapeutic potential lies in their ability to differentiate into multiple cell types and restore neuronal function. However, in order for this therapeut

EU’s green Taxonomy is a key incentive and framework to accelerate the transition towards a sustainable future. This has brought significant changes to the real estate sector's climate adaptation efforts. The Taxonomy and related reporting requirements remain relatively new, leading to limited research and uncertainty about their implementation. This study aims to analyze the impact of unclear

In current oat beverage production, insoluble components such as fiber fractions (plant cell structures) are usually decentered from the product, causing many types of loss. Retaining these fractions requires an efficient breakage of them, to avoid sandy mouthfeel in the end-product, which can be achieved for instance by homogenization. To study the homogenization efficiency, the resulted particle

This master thesis presents a suggested Renovation Passport for two typical 1960s single-family houses. Following the recently approved Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EU 2024/1275A), all member states are to implement voluntary Renovation Passports by 2026, which will aid in reaching the 2050 goal of a decarbonized building stock. The aim of Renovation Passports is to provide long-ter

This research study centers on co-exploring experiences and nuanced meanings of dignity and forceful journeys with Knowledge Holders. The study departs from the problematization of legal labels of "Forced Migration," (FM) such as the 'refugee', the 'asylum seeker' or the 'migrant' and the stigma they impose on people's life experiences. Paying close attentio

Glycosaminoglycans comprise linear polysaccharide containing repeated disaccharide units. When one of the disaccharide units of chondroitin sulfate, glucuronic acid, gets epimerized by dermatan epimerase 1 to iduronic acid, dermatan sulfate is formed. Dermatan sulfate is essential in tumorigenesis, due to increased flexibility in the chain and enables interaction with certain proteins such as cyto

På uppdrag från Miljöbron och Hyllstofta utreder denna rapport vilka elenergibesparande åtgärder som kan införas för Hyllstofta reningsverk. Fokus för arbetet ligger i att effektivisera applikationerna för reningsprocessen. Rapporten ger förslag på energieffektiviseringar tillsammans med beräkningsexempel på hur mycket energi som går att spara. Elförbrukningen kartlades under perioden 20190211–201

This thesis explores the complex relationship between ethnic identity and social mobility within the Māori communities of Aotearoa New Zealand. Central to this research is the role attributed to education, which is seen as a key element in both supporting the preservation of cultural heritage and fostering socio-economic progress. The research examines the contemporary challenges that Māori encoun

This project utilizes an electrochemical recover unit to extract succinic acid through an anion exchange membrane. The extraction was first used in abiotic experiments using synthetic broth mimicking a fermentation with Actinobacillus succinogenes. The extraction was favored by high salinity of the anolyte and a pH controlled at pH 7 in the catholyte. Batch fermentations were coupled with the extr

Forecasting wind has always been an interesting subject, and as large parts of the world are relying more on wind for power production it is becoming even more important to have reliable forecasts. Probabilistic forecasts, where distributions are predicted in contrast to deterministic forecasts, are impor- tant for informed decision making. We apply two methods based on conformal prediction for pr

Quality Indicators: Help or hinder? - The study examines the National Board of Health and Welfare's construction of quality in women's shelters in relation to women's safety and security. The study is based on the quality indicators developed by the National Board of Health and Welfare on behalf of the government. The National Board of Health and Welfare is an authority in Sweden with

Rainforests are of great importance for biodiversity and several ecosystem services. In Rwanda, a considerable decline in rainforest covers have been observed during the last decades. The Gishwati-Mukura Forest is one of the rainforests in Rwanda that has experienced a substantial reduction in forest cover, 99.4 %. The aim of this research has been to investigate what the changes in forest cover o

Abstract The glycosaminoglycan dermatan sulfate plays a crucial role in the process of tumorigenesis, due to increased flexibility in the polysaccharide chain, when glucuronic acid, in the glycan chondroitin sulfate, epimerizes into iduronic acid. The conversion facilitates a change in the interaction with certain proteins such as growth factors, angiogenic factors, and cytokines. The enzyme invol
