How do low carbon transitions in developing economies differ from decarbonization of developed economies? Which specific challenges face developing economies? This thesis discusses the literature on low carbon technology transfers, climate finance and carbon lock-in in developing economies and applies these concepts to the Indian case. The carbon intensity of energy supply is analyzed using the en
This thesis investigated the potential of using reactive power compensation to solve overvoltage issues caused by high amounts of distributed generation, such as rooftop photovoltaic (PV) systems, in the low voltage grid. High voltages are caused by increasing distributed generation as the Swedish power grid shifts from centralised to decentralised power production. The aim was to manage overvol
This study investigates the evolving strategic role of Human Resources (HR) in today’s volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous (VUCA) environment. By comparing perspectives of HR-leaders and CEOs, HR’s strategic contribution is explored, as well as the barriers limiting its influence and the priorities needed for driving increased organisational success. A qualitative, comparative approach was
The use of picture storybooks has the potential to foster children’s environmental awareness and promote behavioural change, but little is known about their connection to the local context, particularly in Vietnam. This thesis presents a qualitative content analysis of sixteen children’s picture storybooks with environmental themes written by Vietnamese authors and illustrators, examining how they
SLAMF6 is an immunoregulatory molecule studied in cancer research as a possible target for immunotherapy in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). The absence of SLAMF6 has been shown to elevate T cell activation and improve anti-tumour responses (1). The regulatory mechanism of SLAMF6 is not fully understood. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the effect of SLAMF6 on T cell signalling using fluore

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
Denna studie hade som mål att i första hand undersöka hur spatialt delad uppmärksamhet (spatial split-attention) i multimedia påverkar kognitiv belastning, men även hur individuella skillnader i objekt-spatiala visualiseringstilar kan påverka detta samspel. För att testa detta inkluderade vi både objektiva mått (svarstid) och subjektiva mått (självrapporter) av ovidkommande kognitiv belastning (exThe present study investigated firstly how spatial split-attention conditions in multimedia affects cognitive load, and secondly how individual differences in objectspatial imagery styles may affect this interplay. To test this, we included both objective measures (response time) and subjective measures (self-reports) of extraneous cognitive load in four different multimedia learning trials with s
This thesis investigated why U.S. hospitals that had committed to implementing communication and resolution programs (CRPs) did not consistently apply their programs when patient harm events occurred. Several themes emerged from interviews with nine risk management, patient safety, and patient experience professionals: the importance of informal social networks; workload and competing priorities a
The concept of this research is that by applying the proposed method, the trajectory of drift into failure can be made visible. The method itself consists of two sequential steps. For research purposes a third step is added. The first step is constructing a phased narrative, consisting of all the changes that have taken place within a particular organisational process subject to research. What has
Various studies on clientelism usually start from a common puzzle: Why is campaign clientelism widely practised by politicians even when they have no means of ensuring reciprocity from the voters? Similarly, why is campaign clientelism widespread amongst voters despite its numerous negative consequences on societies, democracy, and development? These puzzles have motivated my research, where I att
Syftet med denna kandidatuppsats är att genom en enkätundersökning tillföra ett explicit kunskapsbidrag huruvida konsumenter bygger lojalitet till ett varumärke eller till en influencer och undersöka om det finns några skillnader i graden av lojalitet mellan generation X och generation Y. Författarna av denna kandidatuppsats har utifrån en objektivistisk ståndpunkt genomfört en kvantitativ studie The purpose of this candidate thesis is to provide an explicit knowledge of whether a consumer builds loyalty to a brand or an influencer and investigates whether there are any differences in the degree of loyalty between generation X and generation Y. The authors of this bachelor thesis have conducted a quantitative study with a deductive research based on an objectivist approach. The analysis an

Background Activity-Based Costing is a costing method arisen in 1980’s as a response to changed cost structures. As business had become less labour intensive, Kaplan and Johnson argued that the traditional management accounting methods, using direct labour as cost base, were out-dated. Instead, Activity-Based Costing is based on the costs for the activities that the products require. The methodolo
