Scatsång och röstimprovisation är speciella kännetecken som skiljer jazzsång från andra sångstilar. Men det betyder inte att alla jazzsångare gillar att sjunga scatsång eller göra ordlösa improvisationer med sin röst. Vilka tankar finns hos jazzsångare om scatsång och röstimprovisation? Det är en fråga som har inspirerat mig till att göra denna studie. Syftet med denna studie är alltså att undersö

At the end of August 1999, the local government council of Malmö city decided that the area known as Kvarteret Bilen would be made available for the European Housing Exhibition 2001 (Bo01-mässan). Kvarteret Bilen extends over approximately 80 hectars and includes the western parts of the Western Harbour area (Västra hamnen) of Malmö. Kvarteret Bilen as a whole, but especially the western sections

Domestic violence is one of the biggest human rights violations that affect women all over the world regardless of their color, nationality, or age. This problem has reached such a degree that women appear to be more at risk of facing violence inside of the home by a husband or partner, than outside by strangers. However, the traditional view that the State cannot be held responsible for acts of v

The legal environment in the area of patent pools in Europe and the US has experienced significant development over the past few decades. Today, the antitrust treatment of patent pools generally favors patent pools provided they meet a robust set of ex ante antitrust safeguards. Despite some inherent differences in antitrust laws, including rules on technology licensing, both sides of the Atlantic

The incidents of September 11, 2001, and the US response raised several important issues under international law regarding the use of force. The attacks against the World Trade Center and Pentagon were crimes against humanity as well as violation of the use of force in the United Nations Charter Article 2(4). Instead of Chapter VII measures through the Security Council, the US asserted that its us

The issue of understanding how electrical and mechanical systems work and how the components interact is not a trivial issue for most people. To help students understand these systems and thereby increase the knowledge for the future engineers, educational computer games may act as an important learning platform. This project aims at aiding students in their effort to reach knowledge in the area o

International development aid is big business. A flow of funds reaches the Global South each year, creating aid clusters with concentrated implementing development organizations. This study looks closer at development in practice in one of these aid hubs, studying the relations between the development community of Gulu, Northern Uganda, and its clients. In focus are power relations between the org

I Sverige, liksom i många andra delar av Europa, finns en romantiserande bild av ungdomsgäng. Genom medias rapporteringar får vi ibland ta del av olika berättelser om ungdomar som sysslar med brott och ställer till med trubbel ute i förorterna. Dessutom har vi alla någon gång sett amerikanska filmer som både glamouriserar gänglivet och framställer det ur ett mycket dystert ljus. Ungdomar i gäng In Sweden, as in many other parts of Europe, we have a romanticized notion of youth gangs. Through media reports, we sometimes come to hear different stories of youths who engage in criminal activity and cause trouble out in the suburbs. Moreover, we have all seen American movies that glamourize gang life as well as present it from a very gloomy light. Youths who are involved in gangs evoke a ce

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilken roll allmänna intressen spelar i den svenska miljöprocessen. Vidare avser arbetet redogöra för de förutsättningar under vilka enskilda, organisationer och myndigheter kan företräda sådana intressen. Uppsatsen berör även vilka som beslutar i frågor som rör allmänna intressen. Då det finns en mängd allmänna intressen som kan aktualiseras i svensk rätt harThe aim of this essay is to investigate the role of public interests in Swedish environmental law. Furthermore the essay aims to explain under which circumstances individuals, organizations and government agencies may represent public interests. The essay also discusses the question of who rules in matters concerning public interests. Since a variety of different public interests may occur in Swed

Aktieägaravtal är mycket vanligt förekommande i svenska privata aktiebolag. Avtalsformen är sprungen ur det praktiska rättslivet och saknar legaldefinition. Avtalen ger aktieägare möjlighet att värna om ägarintressen som avviker från ABLs värdemonistiska syn på aktiebolag som kapitalassociationer med rent vinstmaximeringssyfte. Det utbredda användandet av aktieägaravtal blottlägger den diskrepans Shareholder agreements are commonly used in Swedish limited companies. This is a type of contract that has evolved without any involvement from the legislator, and therefore lacks a legal definition. The contracts allow for the protection of shareholders' interests when they deviate from the monistic notion of the Swedish Companies Act, which states that limited companies are pure capitalist f

Under 1990-talet och fram till 2007 var det vanligt förekommande att byggnader uppfördes med en så kallad enstegstätad fasadkonstruktion. Det byggdes omkring 15 000 – 30 000 bostadshus med denna konstruktion, vilka omfattar 110 000 – 160 000 bostäder. Ett stort antal av byggnaderna uppförda med den aktuella fasadkonstruktionen fick fukt- och mögelskador redan efter några år. År 2007 uppmärksammaDuring the 1990s and up until 2007, it was common that buildings were erected with a construction method known as External Thermal Insulation Composite System Walls. Around 15 000 – 30 000 residential buildings were built using this method and these constitute 110 000 – 160 000 residences. A large number of the buildings constructed with the this method got damp and mold damage after only a few y

Kvinnliga samkönade par har tillgång till insemination inom svensk sjukvård sedan den 1 juli 2005. Trots det väljer en del par att genomföra behandlingen utanför svensk sjukvård, antingen utomlands eller genom privat insemination. Vid insemination utanför svensk sjukvård med donerad sperma skiljer sig föräldraskapsregleringen för kvinnliga samkönade par från den för olikkönade par. Mannen i ett olFemale same-sex couples have had the right to undergo insemination within Swedish health care since July 1st 2005. Despite this some couples still choose to get the treatment outside Swedish health care, either abroad or through private insemination. With insemination outside Swedish health care with donated sperm the regulation for parenthood for female same-sex couples differs from that of oppos

OECD introduced 15 Action plans as part of the BEPS-project in 2014 in their work to combat base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS). Action plan 13 provides for a re-examined transfer pricing documentation and a new Country-by-country-reporting. The CbC-reporting is to be included in a three-tired approach including a master-file and a local-file. This thesis will focus on Action plan 13 in the li

Ett korrekt applicerande av naturvetenskapligt grundad kriminalteknisk bevisning i den juridiska kontext som en brottmålsprocess tar sikte på förutsätter en hel del eftertanke, inte minst när det gäller skoavtrycksbevisning. Detta såväl i själva utförandet och resultatredovisningen av den bakomliggande kriminaltekniska undersökningen, som i domstolens efterföljande granskning och värdering. ExempeA correct application of forensic evidence in the criminal proceeding’s legal context requires a great deal of consideration, especially regarding shoe print evidence. This applies to both the actual execution of, and the presentation of the results from, the forensic analysis, as well as in the court’s following evaluation. For instance, it is important that the forensic expert, to the extent pos

Kan kompensationsprojekt rädda Madagaskars regnskog? Några av de globala utmaningar vi står inför för en hållbar värld är klimatförändringar, fattigdom och utrotning av arter. FN har storskaliga projekt, sponsrade av världsbanken, där de försöker lösa flera problem samtidigt. Ett pilotprojekt sker i östra Madagaskars artrika regnskog, Corridor Ankeniheny Zahamena. Ett stort område av skogen har sClimate change, deforestation and poverty are big threats for today’s society. One way the United Nations has chosen to combat this is through a project named REDD+ (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation). In short, REDD+ allows countries to be compensated if they change their way of using the forest into methods more likely to conserve the ecosystem and eliminate or minimiz
