The constant flow of new products and information we are faced with today demands us to be prepared for rapid changes. To have creative skills becomes more and more important in multiple areas of our lives, from solving everyday problems to providing ideas and associational thinking at work. Some of our most important tools of creative thinking are collected at an early age, when we develop in re
De senaste åren har antalet barn som tvångsomhändertas med stöd av lagen (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga, LVU, ökat kraftigt, och det finns ingen tydlig förklaring till varför denna ökning har skett. Tvångsomhändertaganden med stöd av LVU kan bl.a. bli aktuellt när en person under 20 år har något annat socialt nedbrytande beteende. Rekvisitet är tänkt att täcka in barn som på The last years the number of children subjected to compulsory care under the Care of Young Persons Act (LVU) increased substantially with no clear explanation. A person under 20 years can be subjected to compulsory care under the Care of Young Persons Act if he or she has a socially destructive behavior. The purpose of the prerequisite is to make sure that children who in other ways than through s
Rohingya-muslimerna i Myanmar har utsatts för diskriminering och förtryck i många decennier. Sedan 2012 har våldet i Myanmar eskalerat till vad många menar är folkmord. De påstådda brotten har fått uppmärksamhet i det internationella samfundet och särskilt inom området internationella mänskliga rättigheter. Examensarbetet gör en kritisk granskning av frågor relaterade till det internationella ansvThe Rohingya, a Muslim minority group in Myanmar have been subject to discrimination and repression for many decades. Since 2012, the violence in Myanmar has escalated to mass atrocity crimes, arguably amounting to genocide. The alleged crimes have gained attention in the international community and especially in the field of international human rights law. This thesis makes a critical examination
Idag betraktas dödshjälp enligt lagstiftaren som en klandervärd, och även straffbar, gärning i enlighet med bestämmelserna i 3 kap. 1 och 2 §§ BrB. Det innebär att om någon hjälper en annan individ att, med dennes samtycke, ta dennes liv, resulterar det i straffrättsliga konsekvenser. På grund av handlingens ”altruistiska karaktär” särskiljer den sig dock från de andra formerna av uppsåtligt dödanToday, in the opinion of the legislator, euthanasia is regarded as a culpable, and punishable act according to the provisions in The Swedish Penal Code chapter 3 paragraphs 1 and 2. This means that if someone helps another individual with taking his or her life, with his or her consent, it will result in criminal consequences. However, because of the “altruistic nature” of the act, it differentiat
Från och med den 1 januari 2020 skärptes straffskalan för sexköp av barn. Syftet med åtgärden var att förstärka det straffrättsliga skyddet för ungdomar mot att dras in i prostitution. Brottet är förknippat med låg åtalsfrekvens. Det har tidigare förklarats med att aktsamhetskravet i förhållande till ålder i 6 kap. 13 § BrB - som täcker flera sexualbrott med åldersgräns - var särskilt svårt att upIn January 2020 the range of punishment for exploitation of a child through the purchase of a sexual act got stricter. The reasoning behind the change was to strengthen the criminal justice protection for these children. Exploitation of a child through the purchase of a sexual act is associated with a low prosecution frequency. An explanation for this has been that the rule of negligence in the si
On the 7th of October 2019, the Council of Europe published a press release, “Better protection of whistle-blowers: new EU-wide rules to kick in in 2021”. In the press release, the Council of Europe stated that a new directive, the Whistleblower Protection Directive, would increase protection of whistle-blowers. At the same time, companies and authorities were still struggling with the complicated
Åklagarens objektivitetsplikt har under de senaste åren blivit särskilt uppmärksammad med anledning av Thomas Quick-fallet. Under 90-talet erkände Quick ett 30-tal mord, varav han blev dömd för åtta av dem. Emellertid förändrades allt år 2008 när Quick tog tillbaka sina erkännanden. Detta ledde till ett antal omprövningar, där han så småningom blev friad från samtliga åtal. I såväl domstolar som mIn recent years, the prosecutor's duty to act objectively has received special attention due to the case of Thomas Quick. During the 90’s, Quick confessed to over 30 murders, of which he was convicted for eight of them. However, all this changed in the year of 2008 when he took back his confessions. This led to a number of re-trials, where Quick eventually was cleared from all charges. Extensi
This bachelor thesis studies the relationship between the luxury bag and young female consumers, in order to explore how this relationship affects the usage of the luxury bag. Four interviews with females between ages of 20-30 were held, according to an ethnographic method, to examine the purchase experience, the relationship and its influencing factors and also the usage of the luxury bag. This a
Tillgång till tillräckliga mängder vatten av god kvalitet är en väsentlig resurs för samhället. Det behövs för mänsklig konsumtion, för produktion i industrin, för fisket, etcetera. Det är därför mycket oroande att vattenkvaliteten i Europeiska unionen successivt försämras. Östersjön som är mycket påverkad av övergödning kan nämnas som ett exempel. Övergödning orsakas av utsläpp av näringsämnen iThe supply of good quality water is an essential resource for society. It is needed for human consumption, for production processes in the industry, for fishing, etcetera. The fact that the quality of waters within the European Union is continuously deteriorating is therefore of major concern. One example is the Baltic Sea, which is heavily affected by eutrophication. Eutrophication is caused b
Studien syftade till att undersöka om eventsegmentering kan utgöra en grund för minnesbaserad tidsbedömning i det episodiska minnet och huruvida objektets semantiska association till kontexten påverkar integrationen av minnet. Eventsegmentering etablerar upplevelsen av en händelse genom att särskilja vad som händer nu från det som hände nyss och bryter därmed ner tidsförlopp till enstaka händelserThe study aimed to investigate whether event segmentation can provide a basis for memory-based time assessment of episodic memory and whether object association to the context affects subsequent memory integration. Event segmentation establishes the experience of an event by distinguishing what is happening now from what just happened and thus breaks down the time-course of an event to include sub
The flesh-eating bacterium and inflammation run amok Streptococcus pyogenes is a bacterium that can infect humans and cause a wide range of symptoms, from the common strep throat to life-threatening infections. In rare cases, when this bacterium pushes its way down into our deeper skin layers, like in necrotizing skin and soft-tissue infection (NSTI), the destruction of the local tissue sometimes
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) har under det senaste decenniet blivit ett allt mer relevant koncept. De flesta multinationella företag (Multinational Enterprises, MNEs) har formulerat uppförandekoder och många har också anslutit sig till internationella initiativ som fokuserar på CSR, som exempelvis Förenta Nationernas Global Compact. Genom globalisering, avreglering, paradigmskiften och inCorporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has during the last decade become an increasingly relevant concept. Most Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) have formulated Corporate Codes of Conduct, and many have also joined international initiatives focusing on CSR, such as the United Nations Global Compact. Through globalisation, deregulation, paradigm shifts and not least the development of information te
Objectives: Among patients who underwent primary surgery for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), recurrent disease is frequent and cannot be accurately predicted solely from TNM stage and histopathological features. The aim of this study was to examine the association of tumor markers in pre-operative serum with recurrent disease. Material and methods: Blood samples were collected prior to lung ca
Background: The role of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) has increasingly been called into question among patients with positive sentinel lymph nodes. Two recent trials have failed to show a survival difference in sentinel node-positive breast cancer patients who were randomized either to undergo completion ALND or not. Neither of the trials, however, included breast cancer patients undergoin
This book, which is the result of my work within the project Conversion and Change of Confession, deals with Catholic mission and conversion in Scandinavia in the 19th and 20th cetries. I focus on Denmark, but the Danish situation is studied in a comparative Nordic pespective and against the background of the general religious, ideological and church-political development at the time. Up to the Se
We present extensive density-functional theory (DFT) based calculations of the clean Rh(111) surface and of CO/Rh(111) overlayer systems. We study both ground-state structural properties and core-level shifts from differences in total energies at different coverages and adsorption sites. Most results are obtained using using norm-conserving or ultrasoft pseudopotentials. The overall reliability of
A synthesis inversion based on the atmospheric zoom model TM5 is used to derive top-down estimates of CH4 emissions from individual European countries for the year 2001. We employ a model zoom over Europe with 1 degrees x 1 degrees resolution that is two-way nested into the global model domain (with resolution of 6 degrees x 4 degrees). This approach ensures consistent boundary conditions for the
