För att undvika detta har vi ett immunförsvar som ska skydda oss. Ibland blir det fel under upplärningen av immunförsvaret och istället för att döda virus eller bakterier går det på den egna kroppen.

The available therapies are just relieving the symptoms, not curing the disease. Therefore there is a need for new better therapies.

Ansvarsgenombrott, dvs. att delägarna i ett aktiebolag trots ansvarsbegräns-ningen i ABL 1 kap. 3 § görs ansvariga för aktiebolagets förpliktelser, har länge varit omdiskuterat i svensk doktrin. Inställningen till institutet har dock varit varierande; medan vissa ansett att man i praxis från HD kan finna exempel på ansvarsgenombrott och med stöd av denna praxis utforma detta instituts närmare inne

In this master's thesis I analyse how partially changing ideas and procedures regarding democracy can be incorporated into local politics. I argue that you can see a development of a democracy policy field, democracy politics, in Sweden, where politicians introduce initiatives with the aim of involving citizens in decision-making processes. I have chosen to conduct a case study on the city of

Everyone knows that English is big on puns. However, most speakers of Japanese know that this is very much true for this language as well. Being aware of the poor attention western linguists have given Japanese puns, this thesis is trying to present, describe and classify several examples of Japanese puns from a western humour-theoretic perspective. This is done by first explaining modern theories

A large and growing body of literature has investigated the national parliaments and their involvement in the activities of the Union. However, the literature does not fully cover all the national parliaments of new Member States which joined the EU after the largest enlargement of the Union in 2004. As well, little is known about the national parliaments of Baltic Member States. This paper aims t

The claims of female asylum-seekers are often based on gender-related persecution and thus will not fit the profile of a convention refugee. As the gendered bias of the historical interpretation of the Geneva Convention is increas

Through interviews and analysis of official documents this essay evaluates the design and implementation of that action in relation to policy theories and whistleblowing theories.

By using Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis I have
