Phosphorus is essential for food production, but Sweden and the EU depend on imported phosphate rock, mineral fertilisers and feed phosphates from concentrated supply chains. Price fluctuations, trade disruptions and geopolitical tensions have made this dependence more visible. Although phosphorus is present in wastewater, sewage sludge and other residual flows, increased recycling is constrained
This thesis examines how extreme heat is understood and managed within the urban planning context of Malmö, Sweden. As climate change intensifies, heatwaves are becoming more frequent and severe, while urban heat island effects further increase temperatures in densely built environments. Despite growing health risks associated with extreme heat, the issue remains relatively underexplored in Sweden
Synergies are frequently cited as a primary rationale for mergers and acquisitions, yet they are often overestimated in the pre-acquisition phase and inadequately translated into realised value. While prior research has extensively examined the financial valuation of synergies, less attention has been given to the organisational processes through which synergies are identified, evaluated and commu
On November 26, 2025, a fire broke out at Wang Fuk Court, a densely populated residential complex in Tai Po, Hong Kong, eventually claiming 168 lives. As official emergency systems were overwhelmed, volunteers created a parallel digital coordination effort of remarkable scale: a Google Spreadsheet listing residents and pets, a Telegram group of over 18,000 members maintaining text-format missing p
This thesis asks how the application of financial materiality within the European Sustainability Reporting Standards’ (ESRS) Double Materiality Assessment is characterised when applied to a non-profit European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC). It pursues this question through a reflexive single-case study of the European Spallation Source (ESS), conducted in parallel with an impact-materi
Climate-related security risks (CRSR) have risen on the foreign policy agenda of the European Union (EU). As climate change accelerates, its impacts exacerbate existing social, economic, and environmental challenges within and between communities and increase the likelihood of states experiencing humanitarian crises and conflict. These so-called climate-related security risks (CRSR), or climate-se
The ongoing climate change calls for an immediate decarbonization of society, where one important measure is a rapid transition of the energy system through an expansion of variable renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar photovoltaic power production. This transition imposes new challenges to the electrical power system, not least from a power balance perspective. This master’s thesis r
This master’s thesis is about public libraries and how the work they do for children and youth in the summer holidays relates to public policy and reading research. Triangulation of methods is used with literature review, policy analysis, questionnaire survey and interviews. My primary theoretical framework is Carol Bacchi’s ’What’s the problem represented to be’ (WPR) approach, which is also us
Ett för entreprenadavtalet utmärkande drag är beställarens ändringsbefogenhet, vilken innebär att beställaren under entreprenadtidens gång har möjlighet att ändra avtalets omfattning. Att utnyttjandet av ändringsbefogenheten vanligen medför produktionsförluster för entreprenören är den generella uppfattningen i branschen. Ersättning för denna typ av kostnader går att utfå med hjälp av AB 04 kap. 6A distinctive feature of the construction contract is the client’s authority to change the scope of the agreement. The fact that the use of the change authority usually entails production losses for the contractor is the general perception of the industry. Compensation for this type of costs can be obtained according to AB 04 chapter 6, clause 5, when a change order or a change in relation to the
Even though agriculture is the backbone of India´s economy, farmers from various parts of the country are committing suicide. It is not a phenomenon by itself; instead, it is an intense demonstration of the underlying distress (the agrarian crisis) present in the nation for a long period of time. The statistical information provided by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) in India suggests tha
Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka hur aprilskämt i SVT har förändrats mellan 1997 och 2019 och identifiera anledningar till varför förändringar har skett. Analysen är således uppdelad i två avdelningar. I den första avdelningen görs en innehållsanalys med hjälp av Entmans gestaltningsmetod, på fem utvalda aprilskämt som har sänts av lokalredaktioner på SVT. Analysen utgår ifrån Harcup The purpose of this thesis is to investigate how April Fools' Day pranks on SVT (Swedish public service television) have evolved between 1997 and 2019 and to identify the reasons behind these changes, with a central focus on the concept of national identity. The analysis is thus divided into two sections. In the first section, a content analysis is conducted using Entman's framing method o
The Swedish energy transition presupposes a large-scale expansion of renewable electricity generation, in which wind power constitutes a central component. At the same time, the expansion of wind power exhibits significant local variation. This thesis analyses how physical conditions interact with municipal institutions and long-term policy processes in shaping local wind power policy, with a focu
Urbanization and densification place increasing demands on human mental capacity, making access to restorative environments in the city increasingly important. This bachelor's thesis investigates how the City of Stockholm plans for green structure as a resource for residents' mental health and recovery, and how strategies for this have changed between 2006 and 2017. The purpose is to highl
Background Lifecycles of electronics are decreasing, whereas companies with long life product such as the automotive and defence industry is increasing electrification in their products. Consequently, the mismatch in lifecycles between the electronics industry and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), with long life products, requires a solid obsolescence management process, to mitigate and res
Party’s election manifestos can have several functions like building the foundation for governmental action and are therefore of pivotal importance. However, research on the process of how European parties create their election manifestos is limited. This thesis aims to develop a theoretical model chronologically illustrating subjective perceptions about the 2023 election manifesto creation proces
This study aims to investigate how patients, who are enrolled in a rehabilitation clinic in outpatient care, and their relatives' views on working from a rehabilitation plan. This was done by examining how patients and relatives describe it. The study was conducted through semi-structured interviews with six patients and three relatives, who are enrolled in an outpatient department and work ba
Detta examensarbete undersöker hur de uppdaterade kriterierna i certifieringssystemet Miljöbyggnad påverkar hållbarhetsmålen inom bygg- och fastighetssektorn. Arbetet utgår från den centrala problematiken att byggsektorn är en av de största källorna till utsläpp och negativ miljöpåverkan. Miljöcertifieringssystem har potentialen att minska den negativa miljöpåverkan inom bygg- och fastighetssektorThis thesis examines how the updated criteria in the Miljöbyggnad certification system affect sustainability goals in the construction and real estate sector. The work is based on that the construction sector is one of the largest sources of emissions and negative environmental impact. Environmental assessment methods have the potential to reduce the negative environmental impact of the constructi
Social housing in Ireland has undergone several phases of transformation, including financial restructuring in the 1980s and severe retrenchment during the years of post-crash austerity. Concurrently, the overall housing sector has been defined by several ‘boom and bust’ crisis phases and is currently experiencing a housing crisis characterised by increasingly inflated property and rental prices,
