FN’s konvention om rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsättningar är inte bara det ledande instrumentet inom internationell funktionshindersrätt utan knyter även samman fältet med en rad andra områden inom den internationella människorättsjuridiken. I konventionens 27e artikel garanteras rätten till arbete för personer med funktionsnedsättningar, och därigenom kopplas den internationella funkThe United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities is not only the main instrument of international disability law, but also connects the field with a multitude of other areas of international human rights law. In its 27th Article it guarantees the right to work for persons with disabilities, thereby bridging the gap between international disability- and international labour

Hållbart resande är idag viktigare än någonsin att ta hänsyn till. Det är inte längre fossildrivna motorfordon som allmänt anses vara vägen framåt i samhället. Resor bör helst ske med hjälp av transporter vars miljöpåverkan är så liten som möjligt, där gång, cykel och kollektivtrafik förväntas användas mer. I Lunds kommun och Malmö stad är fokus på hållbara transporter starkt närvarande i deras stTo travel sustainable means more than using sustainable transportation; it is important to ensure that the entire journey is sustainable for one to go from one destination to another. The purpose of the study is to investigate how the entire journey is addressed by municipalities' Master Plan and traffic and mobility documents. Specifically, the study analyzed the municipality of Lund and the

In the last century, agricultural intensification has led to loss of permanent pastures in the landscape which has been correlated with a loss in biodiversity. Specifically, small specialist species are more negatively affected. Often because they have a higher demand on suitable complementary habitats, larger home-range requirements of a high quality. Small species also have a lower mobility and

In this study, the reagent 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid (DNS) and high-performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC) were used for carbohydrate characterisation. It was revealed that the DNS reaction is not exclusive to reducing ends as commonly thought, but rather that the reagent reacts with other parts of the carbohydrate molecules as well. HPAEC analysis was used to find how the product distr

The purpose of this Essay is to study whether Swedish Army Officers of today are less prepared for an armed conflict than their older colleagues. The study is a text analysis of Meir Finkel’s theory on Cognitive and Command Flexibility, Swedish military Doctrines and other relevant documents. A research report put together by Swedish Defence Research Agency examining the process of career developm

In 2016 Max Abrahms and Justin Conrad published a study that resulted in a theory regarding anonymous terrorist attacks. Terrorism is a political communication strategy used by groups to communicate their grievances and the cost of ignoring them. In practice, however, terrorist groups only take responsibility for a small fraction of all attacks. Terrorist leaders are not honored for the violence a

What was it that prompted a security policy-differentiated action between Sweden and Denmark as a counter action to the Russian power built up with landing ships in the Baltic Sea region mid-January 2022? This study will try to provide answers to this. We look at it as a comparative case study with two of Keren Yarhi-Milo´s theories from the book The Behavior thesis: Knowing the adversary from 201

In the Swedish Armed Forces (SAF) only few female naval officers reach the position of Commanding Officer (CO) of a naval warship. This, even though the percentage of female officers in the Navy is high compared to the entire SAF. This hampers SAF equality ambitions because a command on the lower levels is a stepping-stone towards higher leadership positions. In this student paper eight female nav

The purpose of this study is to survey the Swedish peoples trust to welfare from the perspective of the changes that have occurred since 1986. Have these changes affected Swedish peoples view of the welfare state and of the state itself? The focus of this study is whether and how views of the welfare state have changed during the 1986-2004 period. The Study conducts an analysis based on surveys ma

In this study, the process surrounding the provision in Chapter 16, Section 4 of the Environmental Code on municipal vetoes in wind power establishments is examined. The aim is to apply John W Kingdon's theory Multiple streams framework on the way from its introduction in 2009, to the outcome of the National Strategy for a Sustainable Wind Power Expansion issued in 2021. Following the publicat

This project aims to explore the possibilities of living sustainable lives in urban environments. I focus my project on food waste composting in apartments. I collected interviews about the problems people had with disposing of food waste in their apartments, and by searching the literature to select the most suitable composting ways. I have studied and summarized the problems of current products

The impact of conscription on the willingness to defend one`s country is not clear in previous science. In a number of governmental documents published by the Swedish government, emphasize the need of broad popular support among the people regarding defending Sweden. As we now face an increased need of participation in the total defence and increased recruitment to the Swedish armed forces, there

According to a recent report by “Syria Relief” organisation, 75% of the Syrian Refugees who left Syria in the last six years are suffering from at least seven symptoms of Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Youth refugees are not finding the support they need; some of them are not even aware that they need it, which leads to a lack of communication and understanding in the evaluation of t

Since the end of the cold war, Sweden's security policy has shifted from neutrality to a policy of solidarity. The deteriorating security situation in recent years in the Baltic sea region and in Europe has increased the political will in Sweden to implement and develop defence co-operation with other states. Swedish-Finnish defence co-operation is the most developed of Sweden's different

This study aims to identify the factors that influenced and shaped the Swedish defence decisions of 1925 and 2004. In addition, the study examines whether there were mutual factors between the defence decisions. Both defence decisions were made in an era of faith in the future after years of conflict and war. The First World War had ended, and the Cold War had ended a couple of years before the de

Object and context are inseparable. Meaning, interpretation and function are derived from the relation between them. Extrapolate emphasizes the connection between the object and its physical context. The luminaire is the start of a series of objects, which extend their presence by relating closely to the existing context – complementing it instead of working against it. The light source is suspen

Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a nonspecific cation channel activated by a wide range of stimuli. The polymodal receptor resides in the cell membrane of sensory neurons and plays a key role in nociceptive pain transmission. Environmental irritants such as allyl isothiocyanate, an electrophile found in wasabi, activate TRPA1. In this work, the goal was to lay the basis for struct
