In recent years, social marketing, particularly LGBTQ+ advocacy, has become increasingly prevalent in many brands' communication techniques, gaining significant attention. However, few attempts have been made to study its practical and strategic aspects and develop a framework for successful social marketing endeavors that companies can implement with minimal risk of failure. This study aims t
One of the principal targets in the observational study of galactic evolution is the Milky Way, which represents the optimal subject for our capacity of resolving individual stellar proper- ties and thus inferring its history. Despite this focus, the central regions of our Galaxy, characterized by a bulge and a bar, remain a mystery. The confluence of diverse stellar populations, such as metal-ric
There is a strong need to replace animal-based experiments with in vitro alternatives. Mutz-3, a myeloid cell line, has been successfully used to investigate skin sensitization. A problem with in vitro assays, not only affecting Mutz-3, is the use of Fetal Bovine Serum for cell cultivation, as it is a serum supplement which is not fully defined, and it introduces variability in cell-based experime
In this master thesis, the most economically viable option for investing in a new unit in an existing district heating system to fulfil an intermediate load demand of district heating was studied. The investment feasibility of retrofitting a new CHP plan with carbon capture and storage and carbon capture utilization was also investigated. A simulation environment was built in the software Energy O
This thesis was written to bring attention to a group that is still largely invisible in our society - nonbinary people - and examine how nonbinary identities are characterized in children’s literature. It does so by comparing the books Månen, Varelsen och Jag and Euphoria Kids, and discusses them from the perspectives of the intended reader, trans theory, as well as “skev och monster” theory. Thi

Uppsatsen behandlar skiljedomstolen Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) som med sitt säte i Lausanne i Schweiz har varit den huvudsakliga globala skiljedomstolen vid sporträttsliga tvister sedan grundandet 1981. CAS har många fördelar som tex snabba och effektiva avgöranden av skiljedomare med kompetens inom sporträtt, men dess opartiskhet och självständighet har ständigt ifrågasatts genom åren. The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) is a global arbitration court which has ruled in sports law since its establishment in 1981. The arbitration court is the main court in sport disputes and acts as the last resort where subjects of sport can appeal decisions from different sport bodies to which they are bound and that includes an arbitration clause to CAS in the relevant statute. Although pa
AI, alltså artificiell intelligens, är en snabbt växande del av vårt samhälle, och påverkar redan allt från vardagliga tjänster till samhällskritiska funktioner. Samtidigt har utvecklingen väckt både möjligheter och farhågor. En av farhågorna gäller ökad diskriminering, och det är just det denna uppsats ämnar avhandla. I uppsatsen undersöks riskerna för diskriminering relaterade till AI i ett juriThis thesis highlights how AI, despite its many advantages, poses significant risks of discrimination. This is demonstrated through both real-world examples and fictional scenarios designed to illustrate specific phenomena. By analyzing the Swedish Discrimination Law and the AI Act, it becomes evident that existing frameworks offer some level of protection, but risks of discrimination associated w
Den senaste utvecklingen i Europa och den nedmontering av rättsstaten som skett har gjort att domstolarnas oberoende har fått förnyad aktualitet inom EU och således även i Sverige. Denna uppsats syftar till att granska de svenska domstolarnas oberoende gentemot den verkställande makten. För att uppnå detta syfte har jag använt mig av lagstiftning på området till sammans med dess förarbeten samThe recent development in Europe with the dismantling of Rule of Law have been given renewed relevance to the independence of courts within EU and thus also in Sweden. This essay aims to examine the independence of Swedish courts in relation to the executive power. To achieve this purpose, I have used legislation along with its preparatory work and doctrine. This has led to the following: Th
Surrogatmoderskap innebär att en kvinna blir gravid med den uttalade avsikten att efter födseln inte behålla barnet utan överlämna det till ett par eller annan person. Förfarandet används i främre utsträckning idag för att ofrivilligt barnlösa ska få barn. I denna uppsats undersöks surrogatmoderskap, men även assisterad be-fruktning, samt hur föräldraskap definieras eftersom det ofta uppstår probSurrogacy means that a woman becomes pregnant with the express intention of not keeping the child after birth but handing it over to a couple or another person. The procedure is used to a greater extent today to enable involuntarily childless people to have children. This essay examines surrogacy, but also assisted fertilization, and how parenthood is defined, since problems often arise with paren

In 2023, the Swedish state-owned enterprise LKAB garnered global attention by announcing the discovery of Europe’s largest rare earth elements deposit in Kiruna, Sweden’s northernmost town. This discovery is highly symbolic for the European Union (EU), given the critical role rare earth metals play in advancing clean energy technologies. However, as the deposit is situated on Indigenous land, it h
This study examines the dynamics of international aid to Rwanda, focusing on the strategies of Sweden, the USA, and China. Using Most Different Systems Design (MDSD), the analysis identifies differences and similarities in how these donors shape their aid policies. Sweden and the USA emphasize democracy, human rights, and institutional development, while China prioritizes economic investment and i
Frågan om hur carried interest ska beskattas har länge varit en kontroversiell fråga inom skatterätten. Carried interest, eller särskild vinstandel på svenska, utgör en del av de avgifter som erhålles av ett riskkapitalbolag i samband med förvaltningen av en riskkapitalfond. I många fall får nyckelpersoner inom riskkapitalbolaget möjlighet att ta del av denna avkastning varpå frå-gan hur inkomstenThe question of how carried interest should be taxed has been a controver-sial issue in Swedish tax law. Carried interest constitutes part of the fees received by a private equity firm. In many cases, key individuals within the private equity firm are given the opportunity to receive a share of this return, raising the issue of how the income should be taxed. Currently, there are no specific rules
Regeringen har tillsatt en utredning för att se över familjerättslig lagstiftning, däribland sambolagen (2003:376). Sambobegreppet har väckt tolkningsfrågor och en närmare undersökning av dess rättsliga definition är därför aktuell. Genom rättsdogmatisk metod undersöks vad rättsfallet NJA 2022 s. 645 kan ha för betydelse för tolkningen av sambobegreppet enligt sambolagen. Förarbeten visar att sambThe government has appointed an inquiry to review family law, including the Cohabitation Act (2003:736). The legal definition of “cohabitant” has given rise to interpretative issues, highlighting the need for a closer examination of the definition. By applying doctrinal legal methods, the case NJA 2022 s. 645 is analyzed to determine its implications for the interpretation of the legal definition
There have been many studies on the Hungarian political climate already, but the majority of these approach it by only focusing on the state. Although this is important, the system contains other actors as well, such as various leftist oppositional associations. However, the non-classical leftist associations are still an under-researched topic within Hungary. This thesis aims to find out how do n
Den 1 juli 2018 ändrades Sveriges sexualbrottslagstiftning i syfte att stärka skyddet av individers sexuella integritet och självbestämmanderätt. Lagändringen innebär att straffbarhet numera avgörs utifrån om deltagandet i en sexuell handling är frivilligt eller inte, oavsett våld, hot eller särskilt utsatt situation. Dessutom infördes ett oaktsamhetsansvar för våldtäkt (6 kap. 1 a § brottsbalken)On 1 July 2018, Sweden amended its sexual offence legislation to strengthen the protection of individuals' sexual integrity and self-determination. The reform criminalized the performance of sexual acts with someone who does not participate voluntarily, regardless of violence, threats or exploitation of a particularly vulnerable situation. In addition, negligent rape was introduced as a new cr
Att vi har religionsfrihet i Sverige innebär att var och en ska ha frihet att ensam eller tillsammans med andra utöva sin religion. I denna frihet ingår också rätten att inneha en religion. Utövandet av rättigheten sammanfaller ofta med utövandet av andra friheter, exempelvis yttrandefriheten. Så är fallet när någon uttalar sig i en religiös kontext eller med religiösa förtecken. Denna uppsats tarFreedom of religion as prescribed in The Instrument of Government gives freedom to one and all to exercise their religion solely or together with others, along with the right to hold a religious belief. The exercise of this freedom to exercise one’s religious belief often coincides with the exercise of other freedoms, such as the freedom of expression. That is the case when someone in the context
