Sexual violence is a frequent problem in armed conflict. For twenty years, multiple measure have been adopted to stop this conduct but it is showing very little result. At the same time, there is a lively debate on several areas concerning sexual violence in armed conflict. This thesis analyses two of these areas of debate in order to find what the Community of States is doing wrong. Before enter

The case Micula gave people the impression that EU law and ICSID arbitration law are incompatible legal orders, unable to accept each other’s dissenting opinions. Every ICSID tribunal decision in the field seems to cause heavy defence reactions in the EU legal system. However, this clearly does not have to be the case if all parties involved behave cautiously. This thesis will analyse in detail

The goal of this thesis project was to develop an energy surveillance system for the Swedish production industry. The main problem this project sought to solve is that several Swedish industries are currently only able to measure the energy consumption of their entire facilities, as one big black box. They cannot determine the energy consumption of the individual machines within each and every pro

In this thesis we propose a new form of Variational Autoencoder called the Conditional Latent Space Variational Autoencoder or CL-VAE. By conditioning on a known label in a dataset we can decide what points are being mapped to what prior distribution. This makes the latent space more understandable and separates the classes further. It also subverts the tug-of-war effect between reconstruction los

“Silences haunt every archive”, says Rodney Carter, words that illustrate the significance of the archival practice in selecting and arranging the documents that reflect the past. This study begins in the notion that the archivist’s profession represents a certain form of power, manifested in this practice. What sort of history and which stories that will be known in the future lies very much in t

Since there is a lack of scientific knowledge concerning strategic thinking, this study sought to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of the concept. The presumption of the study is that one needs strategic thinking to deal with complex and unfamiliar situations. As globalisation is one main driving factor in the change of how business is run, there is an increased need for organisations to

Highly glazed spaces are continuously increasing in popularity due to architectural attractiveness. However, increased use of glass often jeopardizes thermal comfort in several ways and problem of overheating is one of them. A way to face this problem is to appropriately use solar control mechanisms. However, a proper selection of solar control mechanisms from an early design stage is a complex ta

I samband med framarbetandet av 36 § avtalslagen uttrycktes olika uppfattningar vad beträffar hur domstolarnas avgöranden bäst bör utformas för att främja vägledning och förutsägbarhet i en annars obestämd generalklausul. Principiellt med möjlighet att stämpla villkor som oskäliga i sig framfördes i lagmotiven. Kausistiskt, baserat på omständigheterna i det enskilda fallet, menade flertalet remissIn connection with the preparation of section 36 of the Swedish Contracts Act, different views were expressed as to how the courts' decisions should best be formulated in order to promote guidance and hence predictability in an otherwise indefinite general clause. Principally designed with the possibility of stamping contract terms as unreasonable in itself, it was argued in the law motives. B

This thesis purpose is to look at British media’s coverage of Chinese developmental involvement in Africa, particularly at how the most-read newspapers in the UK have written about the situation, and how they have used media framing when reporting on it. As media can have an enormous impact on people’s perception of certain situations, this paper’s aim is to analyse the media discourse and offer a

Den sociala indikationen är ett juridikens medel för att i vissa fall rättfärdiga att vuxna missbrukare bereds vård, oberoende deras eget tycke. Ett sådant tvångsförfarande innebär i grunden en inskränkning av mänskliga fri- och rättigheter. I ljuset av denna inskränkning är det alldeles nödvändigt att det legitima tvångsförfarandet föregås dels av en tydlig och precis rättsreglering, dels av en fThe social indication is a legal mechanism that, in certain cases, serves to justify compulsory care for adult substance abusers, irrespective of their con-sent. Such a coercive measure inherently entails a restriction of human rights and freedoms. In light of this restriction, it is essential that the legitimate compulsory measure be preceded by a clear and precise legal regulation, as well as a

Popular summary Estuarine eutrophication, the systemic limitation of oxygen in a body of water, has been increasingly monitored and scrutinized as an environmental concern needing acute and long term remediation efforts. The roots of eutrophication are largely attributed to anthropic sources within the watershed, sources that are products of modern civilization; such as agricultural and urban poll

The work presented in this thesis deals with investigation of methods to evaluate simultaneous moment and normal force capacity for symmetrical and unsymmetrical thin walled aluminium beams. The beams are supplied by Sapa Building System AB and is used in their glass facade system SFB 4150. The system is constructed in a way that makes it possible to make large glass facades. It is then of interes

This paper concerns Sec. 23 the Codetermination at Work Act, and the necessary conditions for when a collective agreement is considered to exist and the relevance of contract of law when it is applied. The idea is to point at areas within contract of law that becomes particularly important at the application. The paper begins with a chapter that, in short terms, describes the background within co

Att tilltalade påstår att de handlat i sömnen är inget nytt fenomen, internationella mordrättegångar finns återgivna från mitten av 1800-talet. Uppsatsen omfattar en undersökning av 75 tingsrättsdomar varav 42 överklagats och avgjorts i hovrätten. Vid svenska brottmålsrättegångar är det främst vid åtal om sexualbrott och brottslighet relaterad till bilkörning där tilltalade påstått att de sov vid The ‘Sleepwalking Defence’ is not a new phenomena.

This essay investigates 75 such district court judgments of which 42 have been ruled by the Court of Appeals. Within Swedish criminal proceedings, the majority of cases where the accuse
