During the last decades there has been an upsurge in research on xenophobic populist parties, mirroring their political successes. In the Swedish context, characterised by neoliberal restructuring, issues of race', citizenship and belonging have been important elements of the public debate. These issues have unfolded in parallel with the presence of a neo-Nazi social movement and the emergence of
En del av det fenomen som kallas skattebaserodering och vinstförflyttning (BEPS) händer när multinationella koncerner flyttar vinster med hjälp av räntebetalningar och ränteavdrag. Sverige har försökt angripa problemet genom att introducera regler som begränsar ränteavdrag i sin nationella lagstiftning. Genom antagande av den Europeiska Unionens (EU) första Skatteflyktsdirektiv (ATAD 1) så har detA part of the phenomenon known as tax base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) occurs when multinational entities (MNEs) shift profits through the aid of interest payments and interest deductions. Sweden has attempted to address this issue through introducing rules limiting interest deductions in national legislation. Through the adoption of the first Anti-Tax Avoidance directive (the ATAD 1) by th
Uppsatsen är baserad på två hovrättsdomar angående internetavstängningar i Indien med en systematisk innehållsanalys av rättsliga yttranden och en teori om yttrandefrihet i informationssamhället. Syftet med studien är att förstå resonemangen från domarna kring implementeringen av lagarna, både i de två utvalda domsluten och domarnas tolkning av yttrandefriheten och rätten till personlig frihet. De
The thesis explores online knowledge production around a subject that has been considered taboo and inappropriate through history – sexual, reproductive and genital health for people with female genitals. Therefore, it also examines the political potential of coming together to openly discuss such “delicate issues”. The focus of the study is the Swedish Facebook-group “Fittlife – underliv och häls
Power systems operate at a specific frequency and constantly require a balance between production and consumption of electricity in order to maintain the frequency within a certain interval. Larger frequency deviations can cause blackouts or damage equipment connected to the grid. Balancing functions that stabilise the grid are referred to as \textit{ancillary services}, which in Sweden include th
Som en följd av EU-beslutet om ett nettonollutsläppsmål till 2050 har flera industrier utvecklat färdplaner för hur dessa utsläppsminskningar ska uppnås. Det här examensarbetet undersöker kemiindustrins färdplaner i syfte att bedöma hur de ser på sin roll i att nå EU:s utsläppsmål. Teknikerna och strategierna som används i färdplanerna för att nå utsläppsminskningar varierar stort. Ofta antas att Following the decision set by the EU of a net-zero greenhouse gas emission target for 2050, several industries have made roadmaps for how these reductions will be achieved. This thesis investigates the chemical industry roadmaps in order to assess how they envision their role in reaching the EU target. The technologies and strategies used in the roadmaps to reach the reduction targets vary widely,
This paper provides an answer to the requests that has been made for witness confrontations to become an accurate and reliable tool in the court. This was achieved by the development and testing of the Guilty Face Test (GFT). Facial stimuli was used in a Target Present lineup were the enhanced elicitation of the Even-Related Potential component P300 confirmed recognition of the culprit. The partic
The purpose with this essay is to investigate if there are conditions for freedom of religion in Sudan after the Comprehensive Peace Agreement of 2005. My methodology is to investigate the question of religions liberty in Sudan on the basis of three social levels: state level, religious actors and individual- level. I will use Cole Durham’s comparative Model for analyzing religions liberty and app
Purpose: Ecopreneurs are individuals who engage in entrepreneurial activities, starting green-green ventures, and focusing on sustainability. Ecopreneurs are shown to be key drivers in our society’s transition toward sustainability. This research focuses on environmental sustainability and the reason these individuals engage in ecopreneurship. What is their motivation to start a green-green ventur
In 2020, Zenuity was split up and the new company, Zenseact became a subsidiary to the car manufacturer Volvo Cars, owning 86,5% of the company. In the end of 2022, Volvo Cars acquired the rest of the company and became fully owner of Zenseact. Being a knowledge heavy company with ambitious developers at the core of the organization, Zenseact develops driving assistance software powered by advance
This thesis seeks to investigate the structural circumstances regarding the poor refugee protection for Burmese refugees in Thailand. Acknowledging that existing laws are politically motivated, the first part of this thesis examines the political context that determines the structure of the legal framework. The second part of the thesis scrutinizes the juridical framework concerning refugees, name
The essay deals with how one can predict a state's behaviour through discourse analysis. It argues that while actors must have a real capacity for action, their re-spective discourse must also house a conceptualization of that capacity in order for an actor to be expected to make decisions to employ said action. Instruments of power must also be perceived as effective in order to be employed.
This study investigates the consequences that female descriptive representation, at the highest executive political position, had on violence against women in politics. More specifically it looks at Jeanine Áñez ́s presidency and its impact on violence against women in Bolivia. The research question guiding the research is What were the consequences of Jeanine Áñez ́s presidency for violence again
Denna uppsats undersöker hur EU:s konkurrenslagstiftning reglerar interoperabilitetsskyldigheter för dominerande digitala plattformar. Uppsatsen visar hur EU-domstolens avgörande i Android Auto (C-233/23) omformar teorin om nödvändiga nyttigheter (Essential Facilities Doctrine, EFD) som etablerades i Bronner-domen (C-7/97). Vidare analyseras denna framväxande doktrins samspel med de interoperabiliThis thesis explores how EU competition law governs interoperability obligations for dominant digital platforms. It shows how the CJEU’s judgment in Android Auto (C-233/23) redefines the Essential Facilities Doctrine (EFD) established in Bronner judgment (C-7/97) and how this emerging doctrine interacts with the interoperability obligations introduced by the Digital Markets Act (DMA). The Android
This thesis investigates whether integrating technical market data with fundamental accounting variables improves the out-of-sample predictability of stock returns in the highly liquid S&P 100 universe. Using an expanding window approach from 2010 to 2024, the study compares the performance of regularized linear (Ridge Regression) and non-linear (Histogram Gradient Boosting) estimators against
The aim of this research is to study three particle correlations in pseudo-rapidity for the $\Lambda^0$,$\Xi^0$, and $\Omega^-$ hyperons with a focus on their baryon and strangeness quantum numbers. The two primary questions asked are, into which particles are these quantum numbers typically conserved, and what are their correlations in momentum space. The research investigates these problems by e
This thesis project explores the significance of public spaces in shaping society, culture, and individual identity, emphasizing their role in promoting democratic values and self-realization. Public spaces, such as squares and marketplaces, serve as platforms for social interaction, economic activity, and cultural continuity. The design of these spaces reflects societal values and historical cont
Flooding in oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia is a common problem. The oil palm’s habitable range is restricted to lowland equatorial areas, and the high rainfall and degraded landscapes associated with oil palm cultivation leaves oil palm prone to flooding. Flooding diminishes yields in mature palms, increases mortality in young palms, and disrupts operational processes. This reduces the ec
