Bemanningsbranschen har under de senaste årtiondena vuxit kraftigt i Sverige och är idag en etablerad del av arbetsmarknaden. Behovet av att reglera bemanningsbranschen rättsligt insåg EU redan tidigt och efter många turer och skilda åsikter i frågan så kunde EU 2008 beslutaom bemanningsdirektivet. Direktivet skulle vara genomfört i Sverige senast 2011 men blev klart först i januari 2013 då uthyrnThe temporary agency work business has grown considerably over the last decades in Sweden. The need to regulate the business by law was recognized early on by the EU. After a long process and many divergent opinions, the Temporary Agency Work directive was finally agreed upon in 2008. The directive should have been implemented in Sweden in 2011 but the law enforcing it, uthyrningslagen, was not fi

Tidigare forskning på samkönad familjebildning i Sverige har främst rört homosexuella kvinnor och män som tillsammans delat föräldraskap i så kallade flerföräldrafamiljer. I denna kvalitativa studie fokuseras mödrar som istället vänt sig till fertilitetsklinik för insemination med donatorsäd från permanent okända donatorer. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med elva mödrar från sju samkönadPrevious research on same-sex parenting in Sweden has focused on families in which homosexual women and men share parenting tasks in so called multi-parent families. This qualitative study focuses on mothers who turned to fertility clinics for insemination with semen from permanently unknown donors. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with eleven mothers from seven same-sex families. Discour

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka om implicita och explicita fördomar mot attraktiva och oattraktiva ansikte kan reduceras. Det undersöktes genom att deltagarna tvingades hålla med om ett antal motivationspåståenden om vikten av att ej vara fördomsfull mot attraktiva samt oattraktiva. Deltagarna fick sedan göra en affektiv misattributionsprocedur där de fick skatta attraktiva samt oattraktThe purpose of this study was to examine if implicit and explicit prejudices against attractive and unattractive people can be reduced. This was meant to occur when the participants were forced to agree with a set of motivational statements about the importance of not prejudicing against attractive and unattractive faces. The participants then rated attractive and unattractive faces in an affectiv

This study uses Gérard Genettes theories on transtextuality in an attempt to open up the meaning of Tage Aurell's (1895–1976) "Sommarspel" from the short story collection Nya berättelser (1949). The relations between the short story and earlier texts, such as the biblical myths about David and Goliath, and David and Batsheba; a poem by Dan Andersson; and an excerpt from the operetta

To avoid incorrectly manufactured components, the modern quality development focus towards preventive actions and process improvements. Therefore, a function as acceptance control is not of particular interest. This report treats the activities that have to take place at Gambro Lundia Monitor Division, GLAB MD, in order to get satisfactory quality of purchased components. The Incoming Inspection i

Ben Ali’s authoritarian rule over Tunisia was caused by corruption, nepotism, and unemployment. I aim to show that the downfall of the regime was enhanced by the repression of freedom of expression. Limiting access to information creates struggle for people in their daily lives; they become more dissatisfied and the will to create change becomes stronger. Repressing freedom of expression to hide t

Diffusionsviktad magnetiskresonanstomografi (MRT) är en metod där vi med hjälp av magnetfält kan märka in vattenmolekyler och följa de slumpmässiga rörelser som alla molekyler uppvisar. Den slumpmässiga rörelsen uppstår p.g.a. termisk energi (värmeenergi) och varierar med temperaturen och ämnet som omger molekylerna. Tensoranalys är ett matematiskt verktyg för att skapa modeller för hur den omgivaDiffusion weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a modality that offers the possibility to measure molecular motion such as water self-diffusion which is in the order of 10-9 m2/s. The basic formalism has been known since the middle of the 20:th century, it is however, only during the last decade that it has been used for imaging. Through tensor analysis of diffusion weighted images, acquire

HIV is the world’s leading infectious killer and young people constitute a large part of those who are infected. Preventative interventions directed to young people often fail to provide the comprehensive information about HIV/AIDS that the young people need and the information given is not always accurately understood. The aim of this study was to explore adolescents’ comprehension regarding HIV/

Sammanfattning Hemlig rumsavlyssning är exempel på statens tvångsmakt gentemot den enskilde. Det kan åsamka betydande skada i enskildas personliga integritet men är trots det ett viktigt och slagkraftigt element, i polisens brottsutredande verksamhet. Hemlig rumsavlyssning intar en särställning bland de hemliga tvångsmedlen, då omfattande uppgifter rörande enskildas privatliv insamlas. Utöver uppgSummary Secret coercive measures such as bugging, is an example of the state's coercive power over the individual. It may cause great damage to the personal integrity of the individuals but is nonetheless an important and powerful element, in controlling and solving serious criminal activity. The use of bugging is particularly intrusive, since extensive information concerning the privacy of i

The growing expansion of importance amid financial stakeholders regarding sustainability has led to an extended demand and need of reliable reporting amongst sustainability metrics. Previous research and information about ESG reporting and how ESG ratings are calculated are flawed. This thesis investigates if there are differences between how ESG ratings are assessed between companies producing da

Den svenska elkonsumtionen och elproduktionen förväntas öka drastiskt de närmsta åren. Detta ställer krav på elnätet som därmed behöver stärkas och byggas ut för att tillvarata den el som förväntas. Parallellt med detta behöver den gröna omställningen av industrisektorn påskydas om EU ska lyckas uppnå klimatmålen till 2050. För att dekarbonisera industriella processer kan grön vätgas användas. GenThe expected increase in both consumption and production of electricity strains the Swedish electricity grid, necessitating both reinforcement and expansion. Concurrently, the need to decarbonise heavy industry is becoming more urgent to achieve the EU Climate neutrality goal by 2050, with hydrogen anticipated as a key player. Hybrid energy systems that combine the generation of renewable electric

In the coming decades, the twin energy and digital transitions will require the rapid scaling and deployment of renewable energy technologies and advanced technologies within ‘critical raw materials’ (CRMs) are essential components. At the same time, as CRM reserves are heterogeneously distributed, concentrated in a few countries with refining in even fewer still, demand is expected to outstrip su

Three perspectives of leadership are discussed in this chapter: the transformative (i.e., the heroic), the post-heroic and the mundane. The theme of the chapter is that if we want to understand managerial leadership as an empirical phenomenon and as a work practice, we need to base our understanding of leadership on ordinary managers’ work (i.e., the work of people who are assigned with leadership

A data set of adaptive optics images has been analyzed in order to study the effects of angular anisoplanatism and to characterize Mauna Kea nighttime turbulence. The data set consists of a selection of Galactic center images obtained with the adaptive optics instrument Hokupa'a and the near-infrared camera QUIRC on the Gemini-North 8 m telescope. Using the Strehl ratio and the FWHM as tracers for
