Why a Book about Product-Oriented Environmental Law? While laws relating to the environment have been around for centuries, it could be argued that modern environmental lawmaking started in the 1960s, when many nations began adopting acts specifically targeting the environment. The evolution of environmental law since then has followed several paths, from mainly local regulations to national, Euro
Introduction: A large number of policy instruments have been developed to induce energy efficiency and mitigate climate change. Traditional policy evaluations have assessed the performance of individual policy instruments, applying criteria such as target effectiveness, cost-effectiveness, legitimacy and distributional effects. More recently there has been a shift of interest in how policy instrum
This paper examines the social rules and conventions of photography practices on visual social media platforms through revisiting the concept of gaze. More specifically we analyse how 25 participants in so-called Instagram take-overs make sense of and perform photography as an embodied visual practice situated in time and space. Hence, approaching that which is seen on Instagram from the viewpoint
The suppression of agricultural pests by natural enemies, including generalist arthropod predators, is an economically important regulating ecosystem service. Besides pests, generalist predators may also consume non-pest extraguild and intraguild prey, which can affect their impact on pest populations. This may either reduce the impact of generalist predators on pest populations, because they are
Pharmaceutical packaging is linked to important demographic changes. Aging ofpopulations is one of the demographic changes which has called for more attention, especially in well-developed countries. The increase in life expectancy represents a positive consequence of years of research, development of medications, and improvement in life habits. In spite of that, the growth in the number of people
Avhandlingen närmar sig frågan om hur journalistiska praktiker underlättar konstruktionen av kändisstatus. Teoretiskt uppfattas kändisskap som en särskilt flytande form av social status baserat på medierad uppmärksamhet och engagemang. Journalistik studeras som en invitation att dela upplevelser, organiserade utifrån narrativa strukturer. De empiriska fallen som studeras i avhandlingen är två mångThe thesis approaches the research question of how journalistic practices facilitate the construction of celebrity status. Theoretically, celebrity is conceptualised as a particularly fluid form of social status based on mediatized attention and engagement. Journalism is studied as an invitation to shareexperiences, organised through media logics and narrative structures. The empirical cases studi
Despite the growing interest in employee voice, real opportunities for co-workers to challenge the status quo are limited (Kenny et al., 2020; Wilkinson et al., 2018; de Maria, 2008). This conceptual paper explores the unruly dimension of employee voice in connection to whistleblowing and protest as modes of ethical resistance (de Maria, 2008). It partly follows recent attempts inorganisation stud
Background: In childhood cancer care, healthcare professionals must deal with several difficult moral situations in clinical practice. Previous studies show that morally difficult challenges are related to decisions on treatment limitations, infringing on the child's integrity and growing autonomy, and interprofessional conflicts. Research also shows that healthcare professionals have expressed a
In the dawning age of autonomous driving, accurate and robust tracking of vehicles is a quintessential part. This is inextricably linked with the problem of Simultaneous Localisation and Mapping (SLAM), in which one tries to determine the position of a vehicle relative to its surroundings without prior knowledge of them. The more you know about the object you wish to track—through sensors or mecha
Residential biomass combustion is a significant source of aerosol particles on regional and global scales influencing climate and human health. The main objective of the current study was to investigate the properties of cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) emitted from biomass burning of solid fuels in different cookstoves mostly of relevance to sub- Saharan east Africa. The traditional three-stone fi
Background: Rare disease clinical trials are notorious for complexities that frequently result in study-start delays. However, there is limited knowledge about how participants and researchers perceive these delays and what factors shape their experiences. A clinical trial in the rare, progressive disorder Pantothenate Kinase-Associated Neurodegeneration—the PKAN trial—encountered an unexpected de
BACKGROUND: Problems in social functioning (e.g., unemployment, social isolation), are common in people with a psychotic disorder. Social cognition is a treatment target to improve social functioning, as it is a proximal predictor of social functioning. Social Cognition Training (SCT) improves social cognition, but may not generalize (enduringly) to social functioning, perhaps due to insufficient
Ojämlikhet, i termer av hur resurser fördelas mellan olika kategorier av människor, är ett genomgripande samhällsfenomen. Den svenska arbetsmarknaden är inget undantag och uppvisar en betydande grad av klassad, etnifierad och könad ojämlikhet när det gäller tillgång till kontroll och makt över produktionsförhållanden. Denna avhandling syftar till att bidra med kunskap om hur och varför ojämlikhetsInequality, in terms of how resources are distributed between different categories of people is a pervasive phenomenon in society. The Swedish labour market is no exception, exhibiting a significant degree of classed, ethnified and gendered inequality in terms of access to control and power over production conditions. This thesis aims to contribute knowledge about how and why inequality regimes ar
Uppsatsen behandlar internprissättning av koncerninterna lån i ljuset av den svenska rätten. Internpriset är det pris ett visst bolag, eller en viss del av ett företag, debiterar ett närstående företag i en annan jurisdiktion för varor och tjänster som köpts. Grundregeln är att sådan prissättning skall ske på en nivå som motsvarar den två oberoende parter hade enats om under liknande omständigheteThe paper deals with transfer pricing of inter-company loans with regards to the Swedish law. The transfer price is the price at a certain company or a certain part of a company, charges a related company in another jurisdiction for goods and services purchased. The fundamental rule is that such pricing shall be on a level corresponding to the one which two independent parties would have agreed up
This study analyzes the personal identification process that takes place in the actual meeting of a job coach and a job seeker, with the purpose of making the job seeker employable. The empirical data consists of observations during nine job coach meetings, and interviews with four job coaches. The analysis is based on a social constructionist perspective. The findings point to contradictions in t
As a major step to development, countries try to implement e-government and encouraging the public to use e-services instead of traditional ways. It is obvious that adoption of e-government has increased in many countries over the world, but the rate of adoption varies from country to country, and also the factors which are affecting the adoption of e-government differ from developing countries to

Drönare är obemannade luftfartyg som vanligtvis fjärrstyrs från marken. Från att ursprungligen ha brukats i militär verksamhet har drönare de senaste åren börjat spridas till civila näringsverksamheter, t.ex. inspektion av fastigheter. Genom HFD 2016 ref. 71 I fastställde Högsta förvaltningsdomstolen att kameror monterade på drönare är övervakningskameror, och därför är tillståndspliktiga enligt kDrones are unmanned aerial vehicles that are controlled from the ground. From having been used at first solely for military purposes, they have spread to civil businesses over the last few years, for example to help at property inspections. Through HFD 2016 ref. 71 I it was decided that cameras mounted on drones are considered as surveillance cameras and require permits according to the camera sur
