I en värld där många fler människor ska leva på allt färre resurser har matavfall hamnat i ett stort fokus. Svinnet innebär att hela produktionen har gått förlorad. Det är ett ekonomiskt bortfall för företag men även för samhället i stort. Dessutom orsakar hela livsmedelskedjan miljöpåverkan, inte minst från ett klimatperspektiv. De olika aktörerna försöker självklart minska sitt eget svinn men ef

”Villagisation" är ett koncept som innebär förflyttning eller omlokalisering av personer i utspridda bosättningsområden in till byar. Detta sker ofta i syfte att säkerställa en effektiv kontroll och att för att kunna tillhandahålla grundläggande samhällstjänster och infrastruktur. Denna typ av statliga program har genomförts i olika regioner i Afrika genom åren. Huvudsyftet med omförflyttning

Tying arrangements have been controversial and regarded with suspicion for a long time both within the EC competition law and within the US antitrust law. Tying is a vertical restraint and can be described as an obligation to accept the purchase of an unwanted or unnecessary product or service in order to be able to purchase a wanted product or service. A tying arrangement presupposes an element o

This essay contains an analysis of the International Court of Justice's advisory opinion on the Israeli Wall and a comparison between this judgement and others from the Court regarding the right to self-defence. Moreover, State practice and doctrine on the subject will be evaluated. The wall, or the 'security fence', built by Israel on Occupied Palestinian Territory, has become the wor

In the recent decade, a rapid increase in all-sky spectroscopic surveys has occurred, and with it, the wealth of observational data and information on our Galaxy. Consequently, numerous detections of new structures, such as new open clusters, accreted and in-situ components, are discovered. However, the accuracy and results of industrialised pipelines to derive stellar parameters and abundances ha

Denna studie syftar till att undersöka hur cancelleringsprocesser ser ut i samband med skandaler för influencers och hur de utvecklas under tidens gång. Detta görs i form av en fallstudie, närmre specifikt skandalfallet med Margaux Dietz som inträffade år 2022. För att kunna dra vetenskapliga slutsatser baserat på empiri som följer narrativet, tar rapporten fäste i två teoretiska utgångspunkter - This study aims to investigate the dynamics of cancellation processes in relation to scandals involving influencers and how they evolve over time. It is conducted through a case study, specifically focusing on the scandal involving Margaux Dietz that occurred in 2022. In order to draw scientific conclusions based on empirical evidence that aligns with the narrative, the report adopts two theoretic

Den 1 juli 2018 ändrades svensk sexualbrottslagstiftning i grunden då bedömningen för vad som utgör ett sexuellt övergrepp förändrades till att definieras utifrån huruvida deltagandet i sexuell kontakt sker frivilligt. Ändringarna som infördes i brottsbalken brukar gemensamt kallas samtyckeslagen. Förändringen innebar även att ett nytt brott, oaktsam våldtäkt som regleras i 6 kap. 1 a § brottIn July 2018, the Swedish legislation regarding sexual assault fundamentally changed in terms of which criminal acts are considered to be a violation of the law. Among these changes was the implementation of the new criminal offence of negligent rape, found in the sixth chapter of the Swedish penal code, which opposedly to the previous ruling that only included intentional acts, now criminali

Title Powering Tomorrow - Implementation of Battery Energy Storage System in today's Power Grid Authors Henrik Ramström and Krenar Gerxhaliu Supervisor Ingela Elofsson, Dept. of Production Management, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University Maricruz Bravo, Flower Infrastructure Technologies AB Background We are currently undergoing a transition in the industrial development, taking plac

In 2003 several interesting events occured on the Swedish market for electronic communications. IP-telephony and third generation mobile telephony were launched, and overall the market revenue for fixed call services declined for the second consecutive year. The decline was in particular referable to lower revenues from dial- up access to the Internet as an increasing number of Internet users tran

Purpose: This paper aims to explore and examine how companies have reacted to suddenly occurring crises in the 21st century. The paper will investigate how companies have adapted – or stayed in hiding – during the COVID-19 pandemic, and how this has impacted their corporate brand identity and their core values. The paper will introduce a new framework to be used for assessing the strategic approac

This thesis aims to describe and analyze three different solutions on how to make vaccines for COVID-19 available from a patent law perspective under the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). Under the TRIPS, patent law provides exclusive rights for vaccine inventors to prevent or stop others from commercially exploiting the patented invention for 20 years. Du

Den europeiska stålindustrin står för en betydande del av EUs CO2-utsläpp, men har samtidigt begränsade möjligheter att minska utsläppen från befintliga produktionsmetoder. Det krävs därför nya, banbrytande processinnovationer för att åstadkomma verkligt stora utsläppsminskningar. Denna rapport ger en översiktlig beskrivning av den europeiska stålindustrin teknologiska innovationssystem, belyst geThe EU steel industry is a major contributor to human-induced CO2 emissions and has limited possibilities to improve incumbent production methods further. The industry is therefore strongly dependent on new breakthrough decarbonisation technologies in order to further mitigate emissions. This report provides an overview of the EU steel industry’s technological innovation system, through a new mapp

Misstänkta matförgiftningar uppskattas uppgå till 500 000 fall per år i Sverige, trots tillgängliga utbildningar inom livsmedelssäkerhet, tätare livsmedelskontroll från myndigheten, och skärpta lagar och regler (Norling, 1994). Sedan 1990-talet har det förts diskussioner om att införa ett "obligatoriskt matkörkort" för att förbättra situationen. Men någon sådan licens finns inte idag. LiDespite available training in food safety, regular inspections from the authorities and strict laws and regulations, the number of suspected food poisoning is estimated at 500,000 cases per year in Sweden (Norling, 1994). Since the 1990s, there have been discussions about introducing a "mandatory food driver's license" to improve food safety in Sweden. But no such license exists toda

BACKGROUND: Cerebral palsy (CP) is one of the most common early onset disabilities globally. The causative brain damage in CP is nonprogressive, yet secondary conditions develop and worsen over time. Individuals with CP in Sweden and most of the Nordic countries are systematically followed in the national registry and follow-up program entitled the Cerebral Palsy Follow-Up Program (CPUP). CPUP has

Introduction: Ankle fractures are commonly treated by open reduction and internal fixation with plate and screws. Unplanned return to theatre is common, in many cases to extract prominent osteosynthesis material from the lateral malleolus as swelling subsides. We hypothesised that patients operated with a posterolateral plate placement on the lateral malleolus would have fewer reoperations, and fe

In Western European choral traditions, the ambition of most choirs is to attain an equalized blend of sound and to perform well together with regard to timing and intonation. In order to be able to synchronize this the choir members need to cooperate musically and listen to each other. Choirs often have close bonds, both socially and with regard to their common musical aim to perform well in conce
