This essay examines if and how output-based aid (OBA) in the urban water sector contributes to long-term and pro-poor development. OBA is a results-based method where contractual agreements stipulate subsidy payments on delivery of outputs, rather than subsidies towards project inputs. To study the characteristics and effects of OBA, the essay adopts a New Institutional Economics perspective, and

Problem: Ett nationellt vaccinationsregister där samtliga vaccinationer registreras finns inte i dagsläget. Ett sådant register är tekniskt möjligt men det saknas en specifik, rättslig reglering. Nu pågår en beslutsprocess där olika aktörer försöker påverka hur en sådan reglering bör se ut. Studiedesign: Kvalitativ, deskriptiv diskursanalys av sex dokument publicerade av aktörer med intressen i This is a qualitative, descriptive discourse analysis of the decisionmaking process preceding the regulation of a national immunisation record. Presently, no law in Sweden regulates such a record. The study aims to examine if a regulation is needed, what kind of regulation is needed and who should decide about the implementation of such a regulation. Niklas Luhmann’s theory of decision-making with

För att kunna föreslå förbättringar i ALP: s produktionslayout insåg vi rätt tidigt att det första steget för detta arbete var att sätta sig in i företagets produkter och hur de tillverkas. Vi inledde därför vårt arbete med en kartläggning av produktionen och dess olika produktionslinjer. Med detta som grund fortsatte vi sedan med att föreslå en ny layout, samt förbättringar i delar knutna till de

Klimatförändringen är ett fenomen som på ett aldrig tidigare skådat sätt kommer att sätta press på rättssystem världen runt. Det finns ett behov av att utforma rättsliga instrument och institutioner för att hantera förändringar i miljön men också av att utforma själva lagstiftningen att vara flexibel och anpassningsbar i förhållande till föränderliga förhållanden i naturens tillstånd. För att säkeClimate change is a phenomenon that in an unprecedented way will put pressure on the legal systems worldwide. Not only is there a need for designing the necessary legal instruments and institutions to handle changes in the environment but also for the law itself to be flexible and able to adapt under preconditions in nature which are uncertain. To ensure that the legislation is resilient enough to

Elastic and scalable compute resources are a fundamental part of cloud computing. Efficient management of cloud resources is crucial in order to provide high quality services and applications. In this work we present a novel method for scaling cloud resources and provide stability guarantees. We do this by leveraging ideas and concepts from classic control theory, namely mid-range control and comb
This chapter situates John Rawls’ just savings principle in a discussion about how much a nation-state should save. The main question addressed is whether this principle is a viable alternative to the dominant utilitarian theory of optimal growth. Rawls certainly gives savings a different aim (i.e., to create and maintain just institutions) and introduces additional permissibility conditions on rThis chapter situates John Rawls’ just savings principle in a discussion about how much a nation-state should save.

Under covid-19-pandemin blev många anställda rekommenderade eller tvingade att arbeta på distans (Fackförbundet ST, 2020; Wang m.fl., 2021). Sammantaget arbetade 30–40 procent av arbetstagarna hela eller delar av sin arbetstid på distans under pandemin (Myndigheten för arbetsmiljökunskap, 2021). Den fysiska arbetsplatsen var inte längre en självklarhet; från en dag till en annan blev i stället dis
