Bridging the circularity gap in the LDPE value chain: A Tetra Pak and PolyPlank case study in Sweden

The consumption of single use and disposable packaging has led to significant amounts of waste. A large share of food and beverage packaging products are multi-layered aseptic cardboard packages laminated with aluminium and principally with the Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) plastic material. This multilayer design makes them poorly recyclable and causes that aluminium and LDPE layers are often i

How Capital Requirements Affects Swedish Pension Payments

The size of the pension payments is a result of how well the pension capital has been invested by the life insurance company. The laws for how much of the pension capital the life insurance companies are able to invest, and how much they need to keep as capital requirement, are under investigation. This is regulated by the risk measure value at risk. Finansinspektionen has released a test report,

In the eye of the beholder: Domain logic and goal perception in implementation processes within the Swedish municipal social services

Implementation in public organizations is a complicated process. Previous research has shown that neither a top-down or bottom-up perspective is sufficient to explain why certain implementations succeed and others fail. Alternative models that take the complexity of implementation processes into account by among other things allowing for the interaction between both horizontal and vertical levels

Social Vulnerability Indices and a Sub-municipal Index for Sweden

The goal of risk and vulnerability research is to reduce the harm done by disasters. A disaster is a combination of a natural hazard and a vulnerable society. Understanding vulnerability is vital to reduce disaster risk, or the potential of losses in property or life. Vulnerability is often divided into a technical, relating to buildings, infrastructure, and so forth, and a social which concerns t

Impacts of future sea level rise and high water on roads, railways and environmental objects: a GIS analysis of the potential effects of increasing sea levels and highest projected high water in Scania, Sweden

Utsläpp av växthusgaser sedan mitten av 1800-talet har orsakat klimatförändring som bland annat leder till en ökning av både avsmältning i kryosfären och värmeutvidgning i haven, två faktorer som gjort att havsnivån stigit allt snabbare under det senaste århundradet. Havsnivåhöjning kan öka förekomsten av översvämningar av land, vägar och järnvägar samt påverka miljöobjekt, och på grund av detta iThis study uses GIS analyses to investigate the risk that increasing sea levels and highest projected highwater pose by increasing the risk of inundation on state-owned roads and railways as well as environmental objects in their side areas. This is done through an assessment of sea level rise projections and a risk analysis, which points out where vulnerable features are located and provides time

Present and Future Extreme Weather in Sweden According to the d4PDF

Natural events that happen more rarely have historically been more difficult to study and continue to require different methods. For example, rare occurrences of natural disasters and weather events can have return periods of thousands of years but because of their large impact are very important to study. In addition to being used to study the changing climate, climate models have the advantage o

Redistribution of leftover food from municipal canteens in Sweden to avoid food waste - Environmental, social and economic effects

I december 2015 skrev den svenska regering under FN:s Agenda 2030 bestående av 17 hållbarhetsmål med tillhörande 169 delmål. Mål 12, delmål 3 lyder: “Till 2030, halvera det globala matsvinnet per person i butik- och konsumentledet, och minska matsvinnet längs hela livsmedelskedjan, även förlusterna efter skörd.” Att fullt ätbar mat slängs belyser alla tre aspekter av begreppet hållbarhet på ett ef

NEOLIBERAL CAPITALISM AND DEBILITATION: A case study of disability, political economy & environment in Sweden

The purpose of this thesis is to explore how disability can be mobilised as an analytical category in a critique of neoliberal capitalism as it affects laborers, their bodies, and their socio-economic as well as ecological environment. In particular, I unpack how and why the body is rendered able and unable by political economy, and how the labor market instantiates hegemonic norms of ability. Tak

Product placement and sponsorship legislation within Europe and Sweden – a new era for Europe’s audiovisual media regulation

På grund av den snabba förändringen i det audiovisuella medielandskapet får konsumenterna och särskilt minderåriga alltmer tillgång till medieinnehåll via andra digitala plattformar än traditionella TV och video on demand tjänster. Av den anledningen är det idag mer lönsamt för företag att annonsera genom produktplacering och sponsring på plattformar för videodelning som inte regleras inom ramen fDue to the rapidly changing pace of the audiovisual media landscape, consumers and especially minors are increasingly accessing media content via other digital platforms than traditional television and on-demand services. For that reason, is it today more profitable for companies to advertise through product placement and sponsorship on video-sharing platforms which are not regulated within the sc

Minority Rights, to be recognised by the Legislator or the Supreme Court? - Did the Swedish Supreme Court (Högsta domstolen) adopt an activist or restrained position, concerning the right to property of the Sami people, in the Taxed Mountain Case (Skattefjällsmålet) and what were the effects of the chosen approach?

På 1970-talet stämde en grupp samer den svenska staten då de ansåg sig ha bättre rätt till ett geografiskt område kallat Skattefjällen. Samer är av svenska staten erkända som ett ursprungsfolk, och som en minoritetsgrupp. Skattefjällsmålet togs upp av Högsta domstolen 1981 och resulterade i ett prejudikat som sedan dess haft stort inflytande på de flesta mål som berört samers rättigheter. Syftet
