Several institutions regulating gender seem to overlook and even violate rights and needs for those living outside society’s norms about gender and sexuality. The council of Europe’s commissioner for human rights, amongst others, reports about violations of transgender persons’ right to life, health and physical integrity. This essay connects the situation of transgender persons to the fact that t
The secularization of formerly Christian countries in Europe and the immigration to these countries has led to a great religious diversity. This new situation has made the question about religious freedom a highly debated topic. It concerns that of what freedom of religion should consist of, i.e. whose and what religious freedom should prevail? According to Maria Klasson Sundin, clergyman and PhD
Sveriges självbild som länge varit lyckligt befriad från svågerpolitik, maktmissbruk och pengar under bordet har under det senaste decenniet fått sig en törn. Stora svarta rubriker på löpsedlar har uppmärksammat oss på att korruption och mutor även förekommer i vårt trygga demokratiska samhälle. För att på ett effektivt sätt komma åt detta krävs ett fungerande regelverk, något som haltar då det ko
Finns det kvalitetsproblem i virkesleveransskedjan som påverkar slutkvaliteten på producerade byggnader med trä negativt? För att bringa klarhet i den frågan har platsbesök och intervjuer genomförts på sågverk(3st), hos grossister(3st) och vid mottagning av virke på arbetsplatser(3st). En enkät har också gått ut till 58 stycken produktionschefer i Skåne för att undersöka bland annat vilka kontroll

Stranderosion har länge utgjort ett stort problem vid många av Skånes sandiga kuster. Erosionen har varit speciellt svår vid Löderups strandbad. Det undersökta området består av en 2.6 km lång kustremsa. I de västra delarna där samhället ligger har stränderna varit skyddade av strandskoningar sedan mitten av 1970-talet. Trots dessa skydd har flera hus blivit förstörda under stormar de senaste dece
Om en varumärkesinnehavare har intresse av att upprätthålla registreringen av sitt varumärke måste detta användas på ett vis, vilket uppfyller det så kallade användningstvångets krav. Dessa krav är i huvudsak desamma oavsett om varumärkesanvändning bedöms mot bakgrund av EU:s varumärkesdirektiv eller EU:s varumärkesförordning. Syftet är att i denna uppsats ge läsaren insikt i hur en varumärkesinneIf a proprietor of a trade mark has an interest in maintaining the registration of its trade mark, the proprietor must use the trade mark in such a manner that it constitutes genuine use.

This provides us with an opportunity to brin

The issue of strengthening local research capacity in Africa is again high on the health and development agenda. The latest initiative comes from the Wellcome Trust. But when it comes to capacity development, one of the chief obstacles that health sectors in the region must confront is the migration of health professionals to countries that offer more lucrative opportunities, like those in western
This article is part of the Twin Mother's Study, a study that examines influences on maternal adjustment. A number of studies have investigated the importance of genetic factors for mental health, but few of these examine how genes and the environment influence resiliency/salutogenic factors. This article investigates the relative importance of genetic and environmental influences on resiliency/sa
