Etableringsfriheten för företag är en av de mest fundamentala rättigheterna i Lissabonfördraget. Fördragets artiklar utgör grunden för rättigheten och ger företag rätt att starta eller driva verksamhet i vilken medlemsstat som helst i EU utan att diskrimineras. Denna rättighet har ytterligare utökats genom införandet av nya företagsformer och genom harmonisering av bolagsrätten i ett flertal direkThe freedom of establishment for companies is one of the fundamental rights enshrined in the FEU Treaty. The provisions of the Treaty set out the basis for the right and give companies the freedom to take up and pursue activities in any Member State of the EU without being discriminated. This right has been further expanded through the adoption of new company forms as well as harmonised through se

We explored how a company tries to overcome the problems of awareness, attribution and the definitional misunderstandings of the CSR concept by investigating the message content of communication of a company that positions themselves on their CSR values and activities. This study has an exploratory approach with a strong qualitative focus. The empirical data for this study was collected from Baris

Agriculture and agricultural trade play a key role in developing countries’ economies, however, the EU integration process in the 90s also affects the trade in agricultural products of the EU, developing countries and the rest of the world. This paper analysis the trade effect of the EU integration process on Developing Countries’ Agricultural exports. Using changes in the source of supply model,

Discussion The trend on the mobile phone market indicates that mobiles with advanced texture will be in demand. Sony Ericsson Mobile Communications AB would like to examine what possibilities there are in the field for texturing. In 2006 they introduced the mobile phone W850i with advanced texture on the market and now they want to know more about different techniques for texturing in the future.

We decompose total stock market volatility into market-, industry- and firm-specific components to empirically explore if and how the level of idiosyncratic volatility has changed over time. The econometric methods of Campbell, Lettau, Malkiel and Xu (2001) are applied to the Swedish stock market 1985 to 2004. We find evidence for an upward trend and show that there is a significant increase in id

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Människan har blivit en viktig aktör inom systemet jorden, bland annat genom en betydande omvandling av stora landarealer och en stor påverkan på atmosfärens sammansättning. En omfattande avskogning för jordbruksändamål inleddes redan för tusentals år sedan vilket bland annat har medfört ett kolflöde till atmosfären. Enligt en nyligen framlagd hypotes skulle mänHumanity has become a major actor within the Earth system, particularly through transforming large parts of the land surface and by altering the gaseous composition of the atmosphere. Deforestation for agricultural purposes started thousands of years ago, which might have resulted in a detectable human influence on climate much earlier than the industrial revolution. This study presents a first at

p-Cresol was oxidized by hydrogen peroxide in a reaction catalysed by horseradish peroxidase and the low molecular weight products were investigated. In aqueous media Pummerer's ketone (I) was the dominating product but in organic media the product distribution was quite different; 2,2'-dihydroxy-5,5'-dimethyldiphenyl (II) was the main low molecular weight product. Similar product distributions we

Artificial groundwater recharge is commonly used for drinking water supply. The resulting water quality is highly dependent on the raw water quality. In many cases, pre-treatment is required. Pre-treatment improves the drinking water quality, although how and to what extent it affects the subsequent pond water quality and infiltration process, is still unknown. We evaluated two treatment systems b

PURPOSE: Canthotomy is frequently used to mobilize extra tissue when repairing larger lower eyelid defects. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of canthotomy on blood perfusion and oxygen tension.METHODS: Eight pigs underwent a wedge resection of the lower eyelid and canthotomy (with cantholysis involving the lateral palpebral artery). The wedge resection was performed 8, 6, and 4 mm f

This paper addresses the influence of deteriorating brittle Daniels system characteristics on the value of structural health monitoring (SHM). The value of SHM is quantified as the difference between the life cycle benefits with and without SHM. A value of SHM analysis is performed within the framework of the Bayesian preposterior decision theory and requires (1) structural performance modelling a

Three types of cBN-based composites with TaN binder—without whiskers, with Al2O3 whiskers, and with SiC whiskers—have been produced by the high pressure-high temperature (HPHT) sintering. Density, hardness, Poisson ratio, and fracture toughness of the composites have been studied. The whisker-reinforced cBN-based composites exhibit a higher level of mechanical properties (hardness, fracture toughn

We present the macroscale three-dimensional numerical solution of anisotropic Biot's poroelasticity, with coefficients derived from a micromechanical analysis as prescribed by the asymptotic homogenisation technique. The system of partial differential equations (PDEs) is discretised by finite elements, exploiting a formal analogy with the fully coupled thermal displacement systems of PDEs implemen

Background: One of the most serious secondary manifestations of Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) is coronary atherosclerosis. This study aimed to evaluate whether aged garlic extract (AGE) can influence coronary artery calcification (CAC) and to predict the individual effect of AGE using a standard process for data mining (CRISP-DM). Method: This was a single-center parallel randomized controlled stud

Kritiskt tänkande i värdefrågor VT14.pptx Kopplingen mellan logik och spel går långt tillbaka (Aristoteles såg studiet av logiken, syllogismläran, som nära sammankopplad med studiet av reglerna och målsättningarna med debatterande). Detta gör att man kan tänka på meningen hos ett sanningsfunktionellt konnektiv/operator i termer av ett spel (det s.k. Henkin- Hintikka spelet). LOGIK & SPELTEORI Tänk

The war on drugs has failed. The 'world drug problem' is bigger than ever. The repressive law-enforcement policies are counterproductive. What now? A new approach is needed, one that accepts the fact that drugs cannot be eliminated from society, but focuses on the harm that it causes, so says science. But is the world ready to adopt this new approach? It does not seem to be the case. This

Climate change is an ongoing process that contributes to changes in the climate on a global scale down to a local scale. The Arctic sea ice and the glaciers have continued to decrease at the same time as the rate of sea level rise has increased. Ice caps are vulnerable to the climate change, because they are located adjacent to the Greenland ice sheet and near coastal areas in the Arctic. In the

The effect of external electron acceptors, i.e. fructose and oxygen, on the growth and metabolism of L. reuteri DSM 17938 was analysed using spectrophotometry, HPLC, carbon balance, metabolic flux analysis, enzyme assays and bioinformatics. This strain does not produce much hydrogen peroxide even when 400ml/L air is sparged through the culture. The results revealed that oxygen is not a superior el
