Våld mot kvinnor är ett av de mest allvarliga brotten mot internationella mänskliga rättigheter i världen. Det bekräftar underordningen av kvinnor, den patriarkatiska normgivningen och den otillräckliga implementationen av mänskliga rättigheter. Det här arbetet utreder vad våld i hemmet består av i Indien och i Sverige. I Indien är detta fokuserat på dowry-våld och i Sverige är ”vanligt” våld i heViolence against women is one of the most serious international human rights breaches in the world. It reaffirms the subordination of women, the patriarchal standard setting and insufficient implementation of human rights. This thesis investigates what domestic violence consists of in India and in Sweden. In India this is focused on dowry violence and in Sweden “ordinary” domestic violence and hon

ABSTRACT Soft tissue tumor-associated gene fusions are currently being used as diagnostic genetic markers and seem promising as potential prognostic markers. In the present study, a new fusion gene was discovered in one case of a specific subtype of soft tissue sarcoma displaying a t(6;16) translocation. Using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), the FUS gene in 16p11 was shown to be rearra

Entrepreneurs have difficulties in performing maintenance activities due to the increasing intensity of train services and failing infrastructure. Annually, the state loses billions of SEK due to delays caused by failures in infrastructure or maintenance not performed on time. The largest amounts of delays occur during winter time, when our infrastructure cannot cope with the climate as it is expo

An accessible bicycle-network is a prerequisite to get people start cycling. Increased cycling conduces to a sustainable society with better environment, human health and a more pleasant street environment with reduced congestion. Prioritisation of cycle-routes must be widespread. Just one high quality cycling-line is not enough; the whole bicycle-network needs to carry out high standards. To incr

Death and grief in fairytales. An exploratory literature study The aim of this study was to examine how death and grief is portrayed in fariy tales and how we can understand these stories from a therapeutic purpose. Our main questions were: What general norms are conveyed in the fairytales? What norms on grief and death are produced in these stories? What would these stories convey if they were t

Under de senaste decennierna har EU:s polissamarbete utvecklats i takt med att gränsöverskridande brottslighet, terrorism och organiserad brottslighet blivit alltmer komplex i sin karaktär. För att effektivisera samarbetet mellan medlemsstaternas brottsbekämpande myndigheter har EU därför genomfört ett flertal rättsliga reformer, däribland antagandet av en EU-kodex för polis- samarbete med tillhörIn recent decades, police cooperation within the EU has evolved in response to the growing complexity of cross-border crime, terrorism, and organized criminal networks. To enhance the efficiency of cooperation between na- tional law enforcement authorities in the Member States, the EU has intro- duced several legal reforms, including the adoption of an EU Police Cooper- ation Code and related lega

This thesis project was completed in collaboration with Arjo, a MedTech company headquartered in Malmö, Sweden. Arjo’s product offering is largely centered around providing healthier outcomes for individuals with limited mobility and includes products for patient transfer, hygiene, disinfection, etc. One product type which is central to Arjo’s mission is the hygiene chair. This type of product is

Omni-channel retailing, the concept of offering consumers a seamless experience by integrating physical stores and online channels, is growing within the retail industry. This transformation has forced entire organizations to rethink their logistics network and fulfillment operations, which has resulted in an endeavor to work more cross-functionally in businesses. This shift makes the competence r

One of the greatest challenges for today’s society is the effect of climate change and especially its impact on urban coastal cities. In southern Sweden, a future climate is forecast to result in higher peak rainfall intensities, higher sea levels and higher yearly river flows. Compound events and seasonal variability are novel areas of expertise, but earlier studies and reports have concluded tha

17 kap. 3§ andra meningen rättegångsbalken (RB) anses innefatta en så kallad åberopsbörda. Beroende på ett rättsfaktums art står en viss part risken för att en omständighet inte åberopats, med följden att omständigheten faller utanför domstolens prövningsram. Rättsfakta kan beskrivas som sakomständigheter vilka påstås uppfylla rekvisit i en materiell rättsregel. Käranden anses som utgångspunkt beh

Inland port expansion requires immense investment costs often resulting in dredging and creating a new physical space for production and especially when handling Ultra Large Container Vessels (ULCVs). A floating container terminal (FCT) is an innovation that sets out to change the landscape within what is required to handle ULCV’s. The structure can be placed out at sea where no dredging is requir

Our purpose was to examine the view and perspectives of the residential staff about the disabled individual’s sexuality. Our study was executed in three different group homes. Three questions evolved in our process and quest for insight: How does the residential staff construct the disabled sexuality in a group home? What is the staff´s perception of the disabled responsibility concerning their s

Policy instruments are used to support the introduction and diffusion of renewable energy technologies as the cost of renewable energy is generally higher than fossil-based energy. The commonly used policy instruments for supporting renewable electricity are quota-based system and the price based feed-in system. While quota based systems specify minimum targets for renewable electricity procuremen

Absolute regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured in ten healthy volunteers, using both dynamic susceptibility-contrast (DSC) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and Xe-133 SPECT within 4 h. After i.v. injection of Gd-DTPA-BMA (0.3 mmol/kg b.w.), the bolus was monitored with a Simultaneous Dual FLASH pulse sequence (1.5 s/image), providing one slice through brain tissue and a second slice thro

I svensk historieskrivning kallas 1600-talet ofta för “stormaktstiden”, och dåtidens Sverige betecknas som en stormakt. Denna terminologi är emellertid inte självklar och har, som denna artikel visar, en historisk bakgrund. Före 1800-talets mitt betecknade historikerna inte 1600-talet som en tid präglad av någon särskild storhet, även om kung Gustav II Adolf hyllades för sina insatser under trettiIn Swedish history, the 17th century is usually named stormaktstiden (Great Power Age) and Sweden of the time is called a stormakt (great power). This terminology is not evident and it has a history. Before the middle of the 19th century, historians did not denote the 17th century as an age of any specific greatness, although king Gustav II Adolf was lauded for his performance in the Thirty Year’s

Context. Wide hot subdwarf B (sdB) binaries with main-sequence companions are outcomes of stable mass transfer from evolved red giants. The orbits of these binaries show a strong correlation between their orbital periods and mass ratios. The origins of this correlation have, so far, been lacking a conclusive explanation. Aims. We aim to find a binary evolution model which can explain the observed

In the current stage of the COVID-19 pandemic, as countries open up after an extended period of lockdown, it is important to assure the population that their health is not being sacrificed. In this article, we develop a geomapping approach to identify high-risk areas by considering four nonclinical risk correlates for COVID-19. These are population density, percentage of the population that is exp

High and low molecular mass kininogen, two multidomain plasma proteins, bind to endothelial cells, platelets, and neutrophils in the intravascular compartment. The specific cell attachment site on their common heavy chain is mediated by domain-3, a cystatin-like structure with inhibitory capacity for papain-like proteinases (Jiang, Y., Muller-Esterl, W., and Schmaier, A. H. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 2

We developed a pebble-driven core accretion model to study the formation and evolution of planets around stars in the stellar mass range of 0.08 M⊙-1 M⊙. By Monte Carlo sampling of the initial conditions, the growth and migration of a large number of individual protoplanetary embryos were simulated in a population synthesis manner. We tested two hypotheses for the birth locations of embryos: at th
