Contrary to what often is implied I believe that autonomous action does not have to be morally or rationally justifiable or performed from volitions that are conscious to the agent. If we are to analyze personal autonomy it follows from the above that we need a supplementary concept to include actions that are based on unconscious or preconscious desires as well as non-moral values as possible con

Bakgrund: Många idrottare är i behov av kraft och explosivitet i benmuskulaturen. Ett sätt att utvärdera dessa egenskaper hos en idrottare är genom ett Counter Movement Jump (CMJ). Att använda sig av ett CMJ vid mätning av explosivitet i den koncentriska fasen med MuscleLabsystemet har visat sig vara en reliabel mätmetod. Utbudet av studier som undersöker den excentriska fasen i ett CMJ är begräns

Kan kompensationsprojekt rädda Madagaskars regnskog? Några av de globala utmaningar vi står inför för en hållbar värld är klimatförändringar, fattigdom och utrotning av arter. FN har storskaliga projekt, sponsrade av världsbanken, där de försöker lösa flera problem samtidigt. Ett pilotprojekt sker i östra Madagaskars artrika regnskog, Corridor Ankeniheny Zahamena. Ett stort område av skogen har sClimate change, deforestation and poverty are big threats for today’s society. One way the United Nations has chosen to combat this is through a project named REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation). In short, REDD+ allows countries to be compensated if they change their way of using the forest into methods more likely to conserve the ecosystem and eliminate or minimiz

I dagens samhälle har det blivit allt vanligare att leva tillsammans utan att gifta sig och antalet sambor har ökat. Sambolagstiftningen bygger delvis på äktenskapslagstiftningen och de har således många likheter, men också många skillnader. Syftet med denna uppsatsen har varit att utreda huruvida makar och sambor bör jämställas ur ett rättsligt perspektiv genom att ha en gemensam lagstiftning istIn today’s society, it has become more and more usual to live together without getting married and the number of common law marriage has increased. The common law marriage legislation is partly based on the matrimony legislation and they therefore have a lot of similarities, but also a lot of differences. The purpose of this thesis has been to investigate if married couples and common law married

Museums have long had an important role as institutions for learning and education. In recent years, the pedagogical role of museums has become more important. Museums can offer a different kind of learning compared to the formal education system, and museums can be important resources for schools. However, as a recent report from The Swedish National Heritage Board shows, many museums are struggl

Barn som upplever våld i hemmet har innan 2021 inte haft ett straffrättsligt skydd i svensk lag. Det finns studier som visar att var tionde barn i Sverige någon gång har upplevt våld mellan närstående. Situationen där vuxna utövar våld i vad som ska vara barnets tryggaste zon, kan ge förödande konsekvenser, både fysiskt som psykiskt. Den 14 juni 2018 beslutade regeringen att tillsätta en särskildBefore 2021, children who experience violence in their homes have not had criminal protection in Swedish law. There are studies that show that every tenth child in Sweden has ever experienced violence between relatives. The situation where adults use violence, in what should be the child's safest zone, can have devastating consequences, both physically and mentally. On 14 June 2018, the govern

I dagens samhälle blir befolkningen äldre och kraven på äldrevården ökar. Snabbare, mindre avslappnade och ovärdiga tvättmetoder används i större utsträckning såsom exempelvis duschning eller tvätt i sängen.

Miljörelaterade, sociala och ekonomiska effekter av en ökad plaståtervinning i Sverige Dagens plastproduktion är förknippad med åtskilliga miljöproblem. En av de största utmaningarna är att en betydande del av den plast vi konsumerar hamnar i världshaven. År 2050 förväntas plastproduktionen vara fyra gånger större än vad den är idag. Om vi inte agerar kommer det snart finnas mer plast (i vikt) änThe rapidly growing, global plastic production and the waste generated as an effect of this is associated with countless environmental problems. As this sector continues to expand, so will the problems. Further complicating is the fact that currently only a small proportion of plastic is being recycled or re-used. A majority of the recyclable plastic in the EU and in Sweden is instead being incine

Under mina år som fagottist så har jag de senaste fyra fem åren brottats med smärtor i framför allt min vänstra arm och axel.

The main argument of the thesis is that multinational companies (MNCs) can promote democracy through corporate social responsibility (CSR). MNCs hold some prerequisites giving them the means to create positive changes. But they lack one important prerequisite: knowledge about local conditions. Therefore the best CSR result is reached through partnerships with local NGOs. H&M's CSR-work in
