I al Hol och al Roj-lägren i nordöstra Syrien hålls kvinnor och barn med misstänkta kopplingar till terroristgruppen Islamiska Staten frihetsberövade under prekära humanitära- och säkerhetsförhållanden. Representanter för Förenta nationerna (FN) har likställt förhållandena med tortyr eller omänsklig eller förnedrande behandling eller bestraffning. I början av 2021 uppmanade FN stater att ta hem (rIn the al Hol and al Roj camps in the north-eastern parts of the Syrian Arab Republic, women and children allegedly affiliated with the terrorist group the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant are detained in precarious humanitarian and security conditions that have been equated with torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment by the United Nations. In early 2021, the United Nat

This report examines how Norway’s and EU’s regulations set requirements to environmental barriers. The result is based on a review of relevant regulations and an interview study with personnel from the drilling industry. The result shows that the main difference between the regulations is that EU explicitly focuses on environmental critical elements and that the tradition within the industry is to

Den östra delen av Kaapvaalkratonen i södra Afrika är rikt på flera generationer av mafiska gångar med olika riktningar. Där finns tre gångsvärmar som tidigare undersökts och som tillsammans bildar ett radierande mönster med ett gemensamt fokus i Bushveld-komplexets östra del. De nordostliga och ostliga grenarna av denna svärm består av diabasgångar som blivit daterade till ca 2660, 2685 och 2700 Numerous mafic dykes of different generations and trends intrude the eastern part of the Kaapvaal Cra-ton. On eastern Kaapvaal, there are three previously investigated dyke swarms that appear to radiate out from the eastern lobe of the Bushveld Complex. The NE- and E trending branches comprise dykes dated at ca. 2660 Ma, 2685 Ma and 2700 Ma (Olsson et al. 2011). Further south, a NE-trending swarm,

The presumption of parental liability is an important tool for the Commission, enabling it to hold parent companies jointly and severally liable with their subsidiaries. Parent companies claim however, that they cannot rebut the presumption and are thus rendered strictly liable for their subsidiaries’ conduct. Due to the fact that parent companies repeatedly failed rebutting the presumption with e

This master thesis project applies a mixed methods approach to fulfill the purpose of exploring how and in what ways digitalization transforms different retail categories. A theoretical framework is formulated using existing theories and research, from which four key variables are identified: distribution, interaction, competition and product offering. These variables, combined with an overarching

Rodrigo Roa Duterte was elected president of the Philippines in 2016. He launched a violent War on Drugs only one day after his assumption of the presidency. In his inaugural speech, Duterte described his adherence to the rule of law as uncompromising. At the same time, he has publicly promised to kill anyone who is involved in the drug business and encouraged the police and ordinary citizens to d

This thesis explores what it means to struggle for food sovereignty under belligerent occupation. It makes the argument that the deliberate suppression of agriculture in the West Bank (occupied Palestinian territories) and ensuing deterioration of food sovereignty can be understood as an example of “slow violence,” further entrenching the settler-colonial occupation of Palestine. The settler-colon

This essay discusses the notion of populist leaders using securitization to describe domestic political movements. The analysis consists of all speeches, remarks and interviews made by Trump one month after the first George Floyd protest in 2020, and one month after the storming of the Capitol on January 6, 2021 respectively. By using the securitization theory, especially focusing on existential t

Hand osteoarthritis (OA) is a common form of OA, for which education and exercise are considered the first-line treatment. The aim of the present study was to examine pain and perceived hand function in participants following 3 months of digitally delivered first-line treatment for hand OA. Three-hundred-and-seventy-nine of 846 participants with clinical signs and symptoms of hand OA completed the

This Letter presents a constraint on the total width of the Higgs boson (ΓH) using a combined measurement of on-shell Higgs boson production and the production of four top quarks, which involves contributions from off-shell Higgs boson-mediated processes. This method relies on the assumption that the tree-level Higgs-top Yukawa coupling strength is the same for on-shell and off-shell Higgs boson p

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the effects of nostalgic short-form video on visit intention, including the interaction of nostalgia to perceived self-continuity, attitude towards location, and previous travel experiences. Methodology: The study uses an experimental design that compares individuals’ responses to nostalgic vs non-nostalgic short-form video. Multiple regression an

The game includes 9 multiple-choice questions that highlight BECC research and how human actions affect biodiversity and climate change. Questions are designed to spark discussions — from “Which pollinators increase harvests most?” to “What happens when peatlands are drained?”. From big cats and whales to mosses and butterflies: How are Earth’s species really doing? The answers may surprise you! I

- A PhD Interview with Edoardo Sozzi Edoardo Sozzi, a Ph.D. student at Lund University, is set to defend his thesis on February 7, 2025. His research combines cell biology and bioinformatics to explore how certain brain cells, known as dopaminergic neurons, develop into different subtypes—one associated with Parkinson's disease and another linked to cognitive function and addiction. Ultimately, hi

A skills development initiative carried out by IAC. In this 3 day-training, we will explore spatial audio at an introductory level. It is aimed at those who have experience in working with sound art and want to explore the tools available for creating Spatial Audio pieces. The focus will primarily be on binaural headphone listening with the potential for presentation through larger speaker systems
