Food security and environmental sustainability are increasingly threatened by the current degradative practices of the agri-food industry. To mitigate the adverse environmental impacts of the agri-food supply chain, the circular food economy has been proposed as a strategy to enhance biodiversity, improve access to nutritious foods and reduce the industry’s greenhouse gas emissions. However, progr

Idag är många av staters bärande samhällsfunktioner digitaliserade. En fientlig aktör kan således genom cybermedel orsaka skador för en stat i en grad som förr endast var möjlig genom fysiska medel. Krigsföring har således fått en ny arena, men det är ännu oklart under vilka förutsättningar en utsatt stat får bruka våld i självförsvar mot en cyberattack. I internationell rätt finns ett allmänt vMany of society’s bearing functions are today digitalized. A hostile actor can therefore through cyber-attacks cause damage to a state in a degree previously possible only through physical attacks. Therefore, warfare has entered a new arena, but it is still unclear under which circumstances a state under attack is allowed to use force in self-defence against cyber-attacks.

Den Europeiska Kommissionens (’Kommissionen’) jurisdiktion att granska koncentrationer enligt bestämmelserna i koncentrationsförordningen (’EUMR’) fastställs antingen av omsättningsbaserade trösklarna eller systemet för hänskjutande av ärenden. I båda dessa fall fastställs jurisdiktionen genom kvantitativa kriterier, med undantag för hänskjutandemekanismen som föreskrivs genom Artikel 22 EUMR. HiThe jurisdiction of the Commission to review concentrations under the provi-sions of the EUMR is established either by the turnover thresholds or the case referral system. In both of these cases, jurisdiction is established through quantitative criteria, with the exception of the case referral mechanism provid-ed for in Article 22 EUMR. Historically, Article 22 EUMR was designed to enable Member
The cycle of waterborne methylmercury (meHg) in Little Rock Lake is characterized by a period of accumulation during summertime (when the lake is warm and open to the atmosphere) and a period of decline during winter (when the lake is scaled by ice). We followed this cycle for 16 yr. during which time the lake was acidified with H,SO., and then allowed to recover naturally as part of a long-term f

Syftet med denna uppsats är att berika den befintliga teorin om verksamhetsstyrning inom offentlig sektor med fokusering på överensstämmelsen mellan mål och resurser i den offentliga hierarkin.

Vi har va
Problem: Det finns flera teorier kring olika utdelningsstrategier. Vad forskare inte är eniga om är huruvida företagsledningar använder utdelningsförändringar för att minska informationsasymmetrin mellan ledningen och ägarna genom att informera något om företagets framtida vinst, och i så fall vad dessa signaler säger. Syfte: Studiens syfte är att undersöka huruvida det finns något samband mellan
