Switzerland operates one of the strictest regimes regulating posted work in Europe, going beyond what EU law requires in several aspects. Based on Switzerland's interpretation of the Posted Work Directive, it introduced the so-called Flanking Measures, which regulates posted work in Switzerland, and despite posing burdensome administrative costs, limited market access, and potentially high fin
This thesis investigates how States must approach public-private partner-ships (PPP) for disaster risk reduction to be in compliance with their obligations under international human rights law. Increasingly, engaging in PPPs is becoming standard practice in disaster risk management. Existing research on these partnerships focuses primarily on value-for-money questions. The first people-centered ap
This thesis examined how solitude is experienced and accommodated in cafés in contemporary Tokyo, and how it can constitute a form of urban belonging beyond community-centred understandings of public social life. While cafés are commonly analysed through Oldenburg’s third place theory, which emphasises sociability and informal social interactions, such frameworks cannot adequately account for the
This thesis examines why the United States recognised Kosovo’s independence in 2008 while consistently refusing to support Chechen self-determination across two wars and more than a decade of conflict. Both cases involved secessionist movements, significant civilian suffering, and comparable normative claims, yet produced opposite recognition outcomes. This divergence constitutes a central puzzle
This thesis examines how generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) reshapes product development in creative industries through an in-depth case study of a German women’s fashion and lifestyle brand. The study addresses a gap in existing research by analyzing how GenAI reconfigures product development as a process structured by prediction, judgment, and action in a context where tacit knowledge, s
Popular Abstract in Swedish Åderförkalkning i benens artärer ger upphov till "fönstertittarsjuka" och, i svåra fall, kritisk ischemi med vilosmärtor och sår eller kallbrand. I dessa sistnämnda fall är risken för en amputation stor. Kärlkirurgiska metoder med s.k. bypassoperationer användes för att söka rädda benen. För detta ändamål används helst patientens egna vener, men i vissa fall måste man aThe expression of surface adhesion molecules on white blood cells (WBC) and platelets, and the release of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-a) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) after incubation with expanded-polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE)- or woven Dacron grafts was determined. Both graft-materials induced alteration of the WBC adhesion molecule receptor and caused release of TNF-a and IL-6, higher for wov
In sensitized subjects with allergic rhinitis (AR) or asthma, allergen exposure provokes symptoms. Among non-asthmatics with AR, an association between allergen sensitization, pollen season and lower airway inflammation has been demonstrated. Our aims were to compare AR and asthma with regard to patterns of allergen sensitization, the degree of airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and levels of exhale
Concrete deteriorates due to many different mechanisms. Among the most important mechanisms is the reinforcement corrosion induced by deleterious substances reaching the embedded reinforcement bars. The external sources of deleterious materials may, for example, be deicing salts, sea water, and carbon dioxide. Research has sought to determine threshold values, in terms of concentration of deleteri
Odor recognition memory (ORM) combines olfaction and episodic memory, both linked to dementia and impaired in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Measuring ORM may indicate early PD dementia and aid in selecting device-aided Parkinson therapy. This study investigates ORM capacity and hippocampal dynamic functional connectivity in PD. Thirty-one PD participants and 31 healthy controls (HC) underwent function
Background: Systematic analyses of global health trends can provide an accurate narrative of progress and challenges. We analysed the impact of changing age-specific mortality (epidemiology) and age structure (demography) on crude death rates (CDRs) and causes of death with large or rising mortality to inform the third Lancet Commission on Investing in Health. Methods: Data from the World Populati
Purpose: We aimed to investigate the association between overlapping threat to fixation (TTF) and vision-related quality of life (VRQoL) in patients with manifest open-angle glaucoma (OAG). Methods: Overall, 316 patients with manifest OAG were recruited from the glaucoma outpatient department of Skåne University Hospital, Malmö, Sweden, between April and December 2018. VRQoL was assessed using the
In contemporary Sri Lanka, nationalistic Sinhala organizations like Bodu Bala Sena (BBS) have made a great impact on the debate over what role Buddhism should play in the country. BBS claims that Islam is a non-Sri Lankan element in the Buddhist majority society, campaigning on such issues on social media between 2012 and 2014. This led Sri Lankan Muslim organizations to use social media to counte
Let f be a strictly increasing smooth function, such that f′ is comparable to a weight α′ which is locally doubling and satisfies a non-triviality condition to be explained in the paper. We construct a meromorphic inner function J, such that f−arg(J) is bounded and arg(J)′ is comparable to α′ up to polynomial loss. We give two applications of this result. The first is a sufficient density conditio

In 1975, church sanctuary re-emerged in the Netherlands with a new purpose: to protect asylum seekers from deportation. During church sanctuary events, church sanctuary providers host asylum seekers in or around the church building, operating on the understanding that the government will not enter a church to make arrests. The practice is not illegal, but at the same time is not recognized as a ri
In contrast with most studies analyzing urban forced displacement in Uganda, this study moves beyond the capital Kampala to explore urban refugeehood issues in one of the country’s secondary cities. The case study investigates how a community of self-settled South Sudanese refugees living in the northern Ugandan city of Arua copes with the challenges of self-settlement, self-reliance and recogniti
Water hardness is caused by magnesium and calcium ions (Mg2+ and Ca2+), and can result in formation of deposits, destruction of soap and increase of copper corrosion in old plumbing pipes. To soften the originally hard groundwater supplying 20% of Malmö’s drinking water, Bulltofta water treatment plant imports burned lime from Germany. Approximately 66 mg/L calcium is removed in the treatment plan
