By drawing on an extensive historical background, conducting an analysis of two documents for directing aid from Sida (the Swedish International Dev

Den 1 januari 2009 trädde de svenska ränteavdragbegränsningsreglerna i 24 kapitlet inkomstskattelagen (1999:1229) i kraft. Syftet med reglerna var att hindra s.k. räntesnurror där bolag utfärdar koncerninterna lån för att flytta vinster till lågbeskattade länder genom ränteavdrag huvudsakligen för att er- hålla en väsentlig skatteförmån. Ränteavdragbegränsningsreglerna har därefter ändrats vid tvåOn January 1, 2009, the Swedish interest deduction restriction rules in Chapter 24 of the Income Tax Act (1999: 1229) entered into force. The purpose of the rules was to prevent transfer mispricing “räntesnurra” where companies issue intra-group loans to transfer profits to low-taxed countries through interest deductions mainly to obtain a significant tax benefit. The interest de- duction restrict

This assignment aims to examine under what circumstances a custody transfer can be made from the child’s biological parents to the custody parents after the child have been placed in a custody family in accordance

Bushfires in Australia have long been rhetorically painted in dark overtones, representing nature’s onslaught on the human realm. Yet they are a phenomenon juxtaposing both darkness and light – chiaroscuro; using the unprecedented 2019/20 bushfire season as a case study, this thesis demonstrates how exploring the political ecology of disaster can open windows into the nature of our world extending

The process of globalisation, accompanied by sustainable development considerations, has turned the spotlight on ties between states’ trade interests and their commitment to upholding labour rights. With negotiations on connecting the existent multilateral trading framework to the labour rights perspective at an impasse, major world economies have introduced alternative ways of linking labour conc

The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) at CERN, an improvement to the LHC, scheduled to be operating in 2027, will further the potential for scientific breakthroughs in High Energy Physics. The project’s demand in computational resources, however, is predicted to exceed what will be available then. Thus, efficiency optimization of Monte Carlo simulations of the collisions that occur in

Aggressiv skatteplanering har i takt med den digitala ekonomin blivit alltmer vanligt. På grund av multinationella företags globala natur har dessa en fördel i skattehänseenden genom att de kan flytta vinster mellan länder i syfte att betala mindre skatt. Både inom OECD och EU pågår ett ständigt arbete med att minska den aggressiva skatteplaneringen globalt. Genom BEPS-projektet har ett par verkty

I svensk rätt finns ingen arvsrätt för sambor. Om samborna har bröstarvingar saknar de möjlighet att testamentera hela kvarlåtenskapen till varandra på grund av bröstarvingarnas rätt att få ut sin laglott. Uppsatsens syfte är att diskutera efterlevandeskyddet för sambor och om det är ändamålsenligt givet en modern syn på samboskap. Genom att studera gällande rätt och förarbeten identifieras vilkIn Swedish law, there is no right of inheritance for unmarried cohabitants. If the cohabitants have direct heirs, the cohabitants lack the opportunity to leave their entire estate to each other due to the heirs’ right to receive their statutory share of inheritance. The aim of this essay is to discuss the survivors’ protection for cohabitants and whether it is appropriate given a modern interpret

Under den cirka en miljard år gamla Svekonorvegiska orogenesen deformerades den västra randzonen av Fennoskandiska urbergsskölden. Denna händelse ligger till grund för hur sydvästra Skandinaviens berggrund ser ut idag, men det är ännu omdiskuterat hur orogenesen skedde i detalj. Idefjordenterrängen som avgränsas till Östra Segmentet av Mylonitzonen, innehåller sekvenser av metasediment tillhörandeThe approximately 1 Ga old Sveconorwegian orogen occupies the western margin of the Fennoscandian shield and comprise tectonically reworked and metamorphosed rocks. This event accounts for the characteristics of the bedrock in southwest Scandinavia today, but it is still debated how this development took place in detail, and especially if it was a collisional or non-collisional orogeny. The Idefjo

The implementation of the Single-Use Plastics Directive has gained significant attention due to the detrimental impacts of plastic pollution, leading to the transition from plastic straws to paper straws for Tetra Pak’s portion-size carton packages. However, the acceptance of paper straws could be hindered by negative mouthfeel perceptions, which customers find the difficulties to accurately descr

In an uncertain and ambiguous world, organizations need to find new ways to manage change and stay in business. Constantly changing environmental policies and corporate climate action puts even more pressure on organizations in change management. It is apparent that corporate climate action shapes the way companies operate a business. Hence, the purpose of the present study is to shed light on man

Up to 5% of children in Sweden experience domestic violence at home. A common misunderstanding when it comes to children being exposed to domestic violence is that they are not being harmed by the exposure. As a result of this, children are not being adequately protected against the potentially harmful outcomes that follow. The aim of this study was therefore to explore how and if children’s risk

Turbo systems have long been implemented into vehicles to increase the specific power. Increasing the pressure for conventional vehicles decreases the mass of the engine and increases the efficiency. Conventional vehicles do however produce carbon dioxide emissions which have become an increasing issue that needs a solution. One possible solution is the fuel cell utilizing hydrogen as fuel. This r

Nowadays, due to the global climate change, it is extremely important to find alternative fuels to reduce the utilization of fossil fuels and the emission of air pollutants such as carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrocarbon pollutants, and soot. Ammonia (NH3) is a promising carbon free fuel candidate that can store and transport renewable hydrogen (H2) energy. Ammonia has several advantages over hydrogen i

The world is slowly moving towards a more environmentally friendly mindset and many companies, such as Tetra Pak® have followed this lead by producing more environmentally friendly products and developing better materials with less environmental impact. To accommodate these requirements, it is important that the package is recyclable. For a carton this is defined by the repulpability, i.e., the ab

Gigekonomins snabba framfart har lett till oklarheter kring tillämpandet av arbetsskyddet för gigarbetare. Uppsatsens övergripande syfte är att analysera gigarbetares möjlighet till arbetsskydd enligt svensk lag utifrån arbetstagarbegreppets omfattning. I EU-direktivet COM(2021) 762 art. 4 föreslås en presumtion för att personer vilka utför plattformsarbete, och utsätts för kontroll av plattformenThe gig economy’s quick progression has led to uncertainties regarding the labour protection of gig workers.

The EU directive COM(2021) 762 (called the platform directive) art. 4 proposes that people performi

Sepsis, a serious medical condition often leading to patients requiring intensive care, has prompted numerous scientists to employ mathematical techniques to aid in its diagnosis. This thesis uses logistic regression and a machine learning technique, XGBoost, to predict true sepsis (as opposed to sepsis mimics) and culture-positive sepsis (among true sepsis) in critical care using blood test resul

I denna uppsats har jag undersökt hur regleringen kring visselblåsning och företagshemligheter har inneburit en kompromiss mellan två olika intressen. Utifrån detta har följande frågor besvarats. Hur skyddas visselblås-ning/visselblåsare i gällande rätt? Vilka intressen ligger bakom skyddet för visselblåsning och hur återges dessa i förarbeten och EU-direktiv? Hur regleras skyddet för företagsheml
