De senaste hundra åren har inneburit en förändring i det globala maktmönstret; stater är inte längre de enda internationella rättssubjekten, även internationella organisationer kan anta denna roll. Detta har betytt att samarbeten mellan internationella aktörer har blivit allt viktigare. Även EU vill hävda sin identitet som internationell aktör på den internationella scenen. I och med ikraftträdanThe past century has seen a change in the global pattern of power; states are no longer the only recognized subjects of international law, also international organisations can assume that role. This has meant that the cooperation between these kinds of international actors has grown increasingly important. Also the EU is seeking to assert its identity on the international scene. With the entry i

In 1987, the international community adopted the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer – subsequently labelled as one of the most successful environmental treaties of our time. In 1992, Peter Haas emerged with a study on epistemic communities and their efforts to protect stratospheric ozone. According to Haas’ research, epistemic community members – consisting of United Stat

Sammanfattning Modern teknologi har medfört helt nya möjligheter för museum att nå ut till en global marknad. Museum har tagit sig an omfattande digitaliseringsprojekt och lanserar numera sina konstkollektioner online. Digitaliseringen omfattar även konstverk som tillhör public domain, vilket betyder att vem som helst är tillåten att mångfaldiga och sprida verken. Problematik uppstår när museum häSummary Modern technology offer entirely new possibilities for museums to reach out on a global market. Museums have undertaken far-reaching mass digitisation projects of their art collections and have established online collections. The digitisation comprises both copyrighted and public domain works of art. Public domain works of art are free for everyone to distribute and reproduce. Problems ari

The field of visual analysis has become increasingly relevant to political science. The political nature of marketing campaigns and advertisements with a governmental body as sender makes for a relevant research ground. Based in poststructuralist theory, this thesis analyses the gender discourse in the 2011 to 2013 marketing campaigns for basic military training. The Swedish Armed Forces act as se

This article is based on ethnographic fieldwork carried out among what Lian Si (2009) has called China’s ‘ant tribe’, referring to the millions of unemployed Chinese college graduates who live in the outskirts of Beijing and to some extent share the predicament of China’s migrant workers. Education has been the main route to social mobility for centuries in China, but today college graduates are o

Cells must recycle stalled ribosomes while preventing the accumulation of aberrant nascent chains. In bacteria, this is achieved by overlapping pathways with distinct substrates: ribosome-rescue systems act mainly on non-stop mRNAs, whereas ribosome-associated quality control (RQC) targets mid-ORF arrests. Work in Gram-positive bacteria defined an RQC mechanism that appends C-terminal degrons to s

Ecuador has experienced a drastic political transformation since the return to neoliberalism under the reign of president Lenin Moreno. Political contentions between the government, environmentalists, and indigenous peoples have led to increased social resistance, protesting the use of extractivism and other neoliberal policies to increase economic growth and relieve national debt. In 2019, the Wa

This paper examines the relationship between population growth and economic growth in the European Union during 1962-2017. By combining earlier research and economic growth theory a combined model is presented, which attempts to capture both positive and negative outcomes of population growth on economic growth. The aim of the study is to contribute to earlier research by focusing on the general e

The UK was considered to be one of Sweden’s best friends and allies in the European Union. When the UK decided to leave in 2016, Sweden was forced to reconsider their strategy for maximising its influence in the union. In 2020 Sweden’s strategy to join the frugal four seemed to become more permanent. The frugal four is a group of nations including, Denmark, The Netherlands, Austria and Sweden. The

Den internationella arenan domineras av stater. Staters existens är befäst i sedvanerätten genom Montevideokonventionen. Det har dock i ivern att hålla sig fast vid denna uppstått en uppfattning om att de kriterierna som krävs för att något kan anses vara en stat, också blir gällande e contrario i hänsyn till när stater ska anses upphöra att existera. En av de fyra kriterierna är kriteriet om terrThe global arena is dominated by states. The existence of a state is regulated in the Montevideo Convention on the Rights of States. There does however seem, that in the desire to follow this convention, a definitive opinion that states losing one of the criteria set up by the convention, also means losing their stateship, as a Montevideo Convention e contrario, if you will. One of these four crit

Somalia piracy has its effects on the sea, off the coast of Somalia and in the wider Indian Ocean. However, the source of the problem has its roots on the Somali land. Economic hardship, absence of an effective government and law enforcement are the driving force of piracy. External interference to the Somali land by the colonial powers and some other African states urged the Somaliland into polit

With the STIS E230H mode (R 118,000), we have identified about twentyabsorption components in line of sight from Eta Carinae. Two components,one at -513 km/s and another at -145 km/s, are quite different incharacter from the others, mostly at intermediate velocities (Seeadjacent posters by T. Gull and A. Danks). The -145 km/s component issignificantly wider in fwhm, is seen in many more species, a

European identity based on the common religious and cultural history is very hard to argue for. Still, the guiding treaties in the European Union are mentioning the necessity to protect and preserve Europe’s religious, cultural and historical inheritance. This essay explains how this identification of Europe’s common inheritance is no more than a political construct, based on the same theories of
