The aim of the study was to analyze if parents were aware of the white norm in Swedish society and if it affected them in any way. Through semi structured interviews at a children's center in the south of Scania, we ascertained the parents' perception of the white norm through the experiences that they shared. We also interviewed a preschool pedagogical teacher to gain their perspective of

In this thesis a framework for finding anomalies in streaming data is proposed. The framework proposed is not necessarily applicable only to problems in anomaly detection, but could be applied to other problems as well. There are three main concepts at play in the framework: (i) Active Learning, a learning algorithm which can query a human specialist for labels of instance such that the model can

Today, digital circuits are part of every ones daily life in form of mobile phones, computers, television, smart cards etc. The advent of new technologies such as internet of things, 5G etc. are continuously making the digital circuits more and more complex in design. With this increase in complexity comes the possibility of more bugs in the system. Finding and fixing these bugs is of paramount im

The Swedish public library was founded in the years when the society in Sweden went from being a society of agriculture to industrialism. Modernism was sweeping over the country, everything was possible, which influenced the new society that was built. Now Sweden was going to be a true democracy with responsible and empathic citizens.

Med utgångspunkt i unionsrättslig praxis syftar arbetet att undersöka ompaketeringsundantagets innebörd och dess tillämpning i svenska domstolar. Inledningsvis ges en allmän beskrivning av parallellimport och läkemedelsmarknaden och därefter undersöks etablerandet av ompaketeringsundantaget och dess innebörd. EUD har fastställt att även om fördraget inte berör förekomsten av immateriella rättigheThis essay investigates the trade mark doctrine for parallel importation of repackaged pharmaceuticals established in community law, and how this doctrine is applied in Swedish courts. Initially the author generally describes parallel imports and the pharmaceutical market before investigating the establishment of the doctrine and its meaning. The ECJ have established that whilst the treaty does n

The theory of optimal currency areas (OCA) states that different regions need to comply to certain criteria in order to benefit from a monetary union (Mundell(1961); McKinnon(1963) and Kenen(1969)). One of the most important OCA properties is similarity between business cycles (Masson and Taylor, 1993, p. 274). In the debate preceding EMU critiques argued that the European countries were subject t

Vi blir allt bättre på att sopsortera och ta hand om vårt avfall, men kan det vara så att vi till och med har blivit för bra på det? För att hushålla med jordens resurser på ett smart och hållbart sätt måste vi börja återanvända saker mer och dela dem med varandra. I en cirkulär ekonomi gör man just detta. Ett klassiskt cirkulär ekonomiskt funktionstänk är att man behöver hålet och inte borren, ocHuman activity in the form of unnecessary consumption is one of the reasons to why we have come to experience climate change. A circular economy is an alternative to the linear economy that promotes consumption, and is based on a theory where waste is turned into resources again in a closed loop. In an ideal circular economy there is no waste and consumption is less dependent on extraction of virg

The aim of this essay is to explore the motif in the Epistle to the Hebrews of the believers’ entry into the Heavenly Sanctuary. The author portrays how Christ, on behalf of the believers, has entered into heaven with his own blood as a high priest and as a forerunner. But the author also exhorts his readers that they ought to enter the Sanctuary (Heb 4:14–16, 10:19–22). It is this theme I explore

Dubbel ickebeskattning på grund av tillämpning av skatteavtal kan definieras som den skattemässiga effekt som inträder då varken hemviststaten eller källstaten har något beskattningsanspråk i förhållande till en viss inkomst men där inkomsten skulle ha beskattats av någon stat i frånvaro av skatteavtalet. Hittills har intresset och förståelsen för de bakomliggande orsakerna varit begränsad och detTax treaty induced double non–taxation may be defined as the non–imposition of tax on certain income by both Contracting States, where the income would be subject to taxation absent the treaty. Up to now, there has been limited interest in, and appreciation of, the underlying causes, and there has been a lack of systematic review as to which strategies are deemed most appropriate for avoiding unin

Redan så tidigt som 1957 diskuterades frågan om fri rörlighet och hur man inom dåvarande EG kunde underlätta rörligheten för de fyra friheterna: personer, varor, kapital och tjänster. Till dags dato har EU rönt framgångar för tre av dessa fyra friheter, för tjänster är det dock fortsatt besvärligt. En process att undanröja de hinder som stod i vägen för tjänsters fria rörlighet inleddes av stats- As early as 1957 the issue of freedom of movement was discussed and how the EU could facilitate the movement of the four freedoms: people, good, capital and services. To date the EU has been successful for three of the four freedoms, however for services the situation remains difficult. A process to eliminate the obstacles that stood in the way of free movement of services was launched by heads of

I Sverige har forskningen om svartas upplevelser i akademin varit begränsade, på grund av en självbild som är färgblind och som förhindrar erkännandet av svartas existens (praktik, tanke, kroppar). Denna studie är ett kulturanalytiskt försök att kunna bidra och bredda forskningsfältet för kritiska studier i den svenska akademin, genom att utforska svarta kvinnors känslomässiga och kroppsliga uppleIn Sweden the research about Black people’s experiences in academia is quite limited, because of a self-image that is colourblind which prevents the acknowledgement of Black existence (practice, thought, bodies). This thesis is a cultural analytical attempt to contribute and widen the research field of critical studies in Swedish academia, through exploring Black female’s emotional and body experi

Lärdomar från småföretag som minskar sina utsläpp med Science Based Targets Vi vet alla hur viktigt det är att stoppa klimatförändringarna som sker, men ansvaret kanske inte alltid ligger på dig eller mig. Ofta fokuseras det på vad vi kan göra som individer, men alla problem hade inte löst sig även om vi slutade flyga eller åt mer vegetariskt. Omställningen måste även göras av företagen som stårWith climate change resulting from a history of uncontrolled greenhouse gas emissions, all parts of society now need to take action - maybe most importantly the private sector. Since 2015 the Science Based Targets (SBT) initiative has committed over 5000 companies worldwide to heavily reduce their total emissions at a pace that scientists deem necessary for average global temperature rise to stay

Nu kommer kraven för att återställa naturen – hur ska företagen lösa detta bortprioriterade ämne? Planetens alla livsavgörande funktioner såsom matförsörjning och materialtillgångar är beroende av en välmående natur.
