Sweden has no specific law regarding cyberstalking, even though technology is a prominent part of everyday society. There is a lack of research concerning cyberstalking within the Swedish context. This study aims to examine the legal norms involving cyberstalking. Specifically how the existing legal norms are reproduced, as well as to see if the legal and social norms have an interdependence and w
Anna-Frida Erikson SOPA63a Abstract Surrogate motherhood is a relatively new phenomenon. In the early 1990´s it became permissible to transplant an embryo into another women’s uterus. This led to the possibility for women in India, to carry the foetal and give birth to an entire genetic child for childless couples in the Western world. Wealthy homosexual and heterosexual couples use this method to
Huvudmålet med miljöbalken är att uppnå en hållbar utveckling. Detta stadgas i balkens portalparagraf och begreppet anses innehålla tre pelare som måste balanseras och tas hänsyn till: ekologisk, ekonomisk och social hållbarhet. För att uppfylla huvudmålet är det viktigt att dess underliggande delmål genomdrivs, varav straff och sanktioner är ett av dessa. Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda huThe main objective of the Swedish Environmental Code (miljöbalken) is to achieve sustainable development. This objective is stated in the Code’s initial paragraph and the concept contains three pillars which need to be considered and balanced: ecological, economic and social sustainability. To fulfil the main objective an enforcement of its sub targets is important, criminal sanctions being one of

In a time where concern over migrant indebtedness as a cross-cutting development issue is growing around the world, this paper sets out to explore how migrant workers from Myanmar in Thailand perceive loans and debt, and how these perceptions may link with the migrants’ borrowing behaviour. Despite the prominence of the Myanmar-Thai migration corridor and evidence that indebtedness is common among
Only in primates is permanent male-female association the most widespread social structure of all. The continuous presence of resident males in the social group can have significant impacts on female fitness, both in forms of costs and benefits. In this study I investigate particular short-term benefits and costs of resident males to females in a population of ursi
Research has described political participation as becoming ever more individualised (eg Bennett & Segerberg, 2013). This has been argued to be connected to the general individualisation of society, but also to affordances made possible by new media. One line of research explains political participation combining selective benefits (Olson, 1965), psychological factors (Klandermans & van Ste
This LUii report presents empirical results from studies on consumption and over-indebtedness in Swedish young adults in a digital context. The studies have been conducted through in-depth interviews with municipal financial counsellors as well as a quantitative survey with approximately 1,100 respondents in a sample representative of Swedes from 18 to 25 years old. The report includes an extensiv
Denna doktorsavhandling undersöker samtal om personliga problem i mötet med en specialist i radio. I synnerhet handlar studien om den dynamiska process då förståelse skapas – när upplevelser av personliga bekymmer förklaras och definieras som problem av särskilda slag. Denna meningsskapande process undersöks i detalj så som den utspelar sig i dialoger i radio och mellan programdeltagare och radiolThe dissertation examines how personal troubles are talked about in an encounter with a professional on the public arena of radio broadcasting, where the professional has to meet the challenge of making professional advice not only useful for the person seeking help, but also relevant or interesting for the radio audience. The study explores the dynamic process of shaping an understanding of probl
This book is about Erving Goffman’s frame analysis as it, on the one hand, was presented in his 1974 book Frame Analysis and, on the other, was actually conducted in a number of preceding substantial analyses of different aspects of social interaction such as face-work, impression management, fun in games, behavior in public places and stigmatization. There was, in other words, a frame analytic co
Avhandlingen undersöker olika faktorer som påverkar livsvillkoren för unga svenskar med invandrarbakgrund. Genom att undersöka hur ungdomar föreställer sig sin framtid och vägen dit syftar studien till att ge insikt i hur ungdomar ser på sina livsmöjligheter. Avhandlingen diskuterar hur individer genom sina sociala nätverk (socialt kapital) och medverkan i olika kulturella aktiviteter (kulturellt The dissertation examines the determinants of life chances among young people with immigrant background in Sweden. The dissertation includes four research papers, each examining a specific research question on a determinant of life chances. The studies are based on datasets from two surveys: the Social Capital and Labour Market Integration survey, and a longitudinal study of ten schools in Malmö.S
The ‘Anthropocene’ is now being used as a conceptual frame by different communities and in a variety of contexts to understand the evolving human–environment relationship. However, as we argue in this paper, the notion of an Anthropos, or ‘humanity’, as global, unified ‘geological force’ threatens to mask the diversity and differences in the actual conditions and impacts of humankind, and does not
Justice is an underlying principle and an important lens in understanding sustainable development goals (SDG). There is a need for analysis and clarification on the underlying principles of justice embedded in the SDGs. Goals such as no poverty (goal 1), zero hunger (goal 2), health and well-being (goal 3), gender equality (goal 5), affordable energy (goal 7), reduced inequalities (goal 10) as wel
This dissertation presents an inquiry into existing evidence, underlying assumptions, and the rapid diffusion of conditional cash transfers (CCTs) in Latin America. Equally concerned with empirical research on CCTs’ assumed capabilities and the programmes’ political economy and social policy contexts, this inquiry combines systematic analyses and case studies from field work in Uruguay and Guatema
EU:s gemensamma jordbrukspolitik handlar i allt mindre utsträckning om produktion av jordbruksprodukter och allt mer om att utveckla landsbygden samt att föra pengar till jordbruket för att stödja jordbrukets inkomster. Stora pengar satsas också i projekt för att uppmuntra företagande och skapa sysselsättning på landsbygden, såväl av gemensamma EU-medel som från den svenska budgeten. Åtgärderna sa
Currently, a high efficiency single layer metal halide perovskite solar cell employs a TiO2 mesoporous layer as an electron transporting material and spiro-OMeTAD as a hole transporting material. The efficient charge carrier separation and retarded interfacial charge recombination are expected to achieve a high solar to energy conversion efficiency. In this presentation, we will demonstrate how st
With the migration from traditional news media to social media, understanding how citizens learn about politics and current affairs from these sources has become increasingly important. The use of social networking sites has become fully integrated into the strategies of political parties. Visualizations of political communication are becoming increasingly available across a variety of platforms a
