E-waste has had unwanted effects on the economy, health and physical environment of developing countries. E-waste activities in most developing countries including Ghana are dominated by the informal sector. Ghana, over the period, has had support from international organisations to manage its e-waste crisis. However, efforts to salvage the situation are often stymied by a myriad of factors. In 20
Barnagaförbudet i svensk rätt innebär ett absolut skydd för barn att leva ett liv fritt från övergrepp. Förbudet präglas av principen om barnets bästa. Barnagaförbudet innebär däremot inte att alla typer av övergrepp mot barn är sanktionerade med straff. En grupp som riskerar att falla utanför svensk straffbestämmelse är de barn som utsätts för våld i hemmet utan att det lämnar synliga spår. Brott
Under de senaste åren har ett antal fall av hets till självmord på internet och sociala medier uppmärksammats såväl nationellt som internationellt. Under våren år 2018 rapporterade medier i Sverige om ett svenskt fall där en polisman givit en ung kvinna instruktioner via sms om hur hon bäst skulle begå självmord. Eftersom självmord och självmordsförsök inte är kriminaliserat blir medverkansreglern
In the fall of 2007 a collective of artists in southern Sweden made waves for themselves by attempting to construct a rather unique ‘club-format’ unlike any other in the [then] current Swedish underground club scene. Guided mainly by a self-proclaimed ‘notion of confusion’ as its foundational principle, the collective behind Klubb Kristallen branded itself as an aspiring anti-club by seeking to ch
Urbaniseringen i världen har de senaste 60 åren accelererat, och folk bor numera allt tätare och spenderar större delen av livet inomhus. Samtidigt pågår en trend av ökad psykisk ohälsa i många länder, där urbaniseringen kan vara en påverkande faktor. Studier visar att närhet till natur gör oss mer välmående. Ett sätt att uppnå detta inomhus är att ha inomhusväxter. Dock är ett problem med att ha Urbanization in the world has during the past 60 years accelerated, resulting in people living in more densely populated areas and spending a majority of their lives indoors. Another ongoing trend in many countries is an increase in mental health issues, where urbanization could be a contributing factor. Studies have shown that closeness to nature increases our well-being. One way to achieve this
Public Private Partnership, PPP, is a public procurement method involving the private sector used in several countries all over the world, now upcoming in Sweden. The UK, most prominent within this method, states that it offers good value for money, but the economic and financial benefits of PPP are still uncertain and subjects of debate. In order for the projects to be successful and to achieve v
Framväxten av elektronisk handel under 1990-talet ansågs av både OECD och EU skapa såväl förutsättningar för stora vinster för företag som stora utmaningar för skattemyndigheterna. Till sin natur är elektronisk handeln global, omedelbar, utan traditionella gränser och genomförs med relativ anonymitet . Dessa aspekter innebär svårigheter för ett traditionellt skattesystem. Enligt sjätte mervärdesskThe emergence of electronic commerce in the 1990's was acknowledged by both the OECD and the EU to bring about prospects of great profits for businesses as well as huge challenges for fiscal authorities. By its very nature, electronic commerce is global, instantaneous, without traditional borders and conducted with relative anonymity. These aspects make it difficult for a traditional tax syste

This thesis presents the work I did for the inclusive search for anomalous production of same charge lepton-pairs, originating from the collision point, at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the LHC using the 2012 data. I optimized the selection criteria for isolated electrons and muons, calculated the so-called "fake factors" and "fake factor" systematic uncertainties
DPM is a manufacturing company within the metal cutting industry. A number of years ago there emerged a desire to make statistical calculations for its production. Until today, the company has not done any post-calculations, which means that they have based their cost calculations and sales prices on precalculated costs. The absence of post-calculations leads to lack of cost-consciousness that is
The main purpose of this study is to map out collaborative crime prevention measures performed by Landskrona’s municipal and police authorities to reduce the incidence of non-domestic violence. These measures have been compared with the findings of previous reports and similar studies on the prevention of violent crime and public violence. While the study was performed from a sociology of law per
This thesis is about the overlooked workload nurses’ hands are daily exposed to. This workload is made up of small tasks, seemingly requiring small efforts that together and over time can cause considerable muscle wear. A large number of these tasks consist of opening packages constructed to ensure that the products are sterile. In this study, the effects these packages have on the users were exam
In December 2014 the requirement increased on pre-packed food labelling when the regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 entered into force. Two important changes were that allergen information must be emphasised in the ingredients list and a minimum font size must be used for the obligatory information on food labels. It´s crucial that grocery stores follow the food legislation, so that consumers and especi
Background This study was conducted at a business unit at the Company, a leading global consumer goods company based in Europe, working in an increasingly hostile environment due to market deregulation and international competition. The business unit was recently separated from previously being integrated in other units and now have high targets to meet. To reach these targets, the rate of innovat
Migrationsrätten är ett område som till stor del är styrt av politiska intressen, och är därmed ett rättsområde som förändras ofta. Möjligheten för en asylsökande att beviljas uppehållstillstånd ställs mot samhällets intressen av reglering av invandring. Bestämmelsen om synnerligen ömmande omständigheter infördes i svensk lag år 2005. Den åsyftade att ge fler människor möjligheten till asyl, genomThe immigration law is a field, which is largely controlled by political interests, and is thereby a field of law that changes often. The possibility for an alien to be granted a residence permit stands against general interests, such as regulation of immigration. In the year of 2005 the provision of exceptionally distressing circumstances was introduced to Swedish law. The provision aimed to gi
The risk of pluvial flooding is going to increase as climate change causes an increase in intense precipitation along with urbanisation leading to an increase in impermeable surfaces. In the last decade, cities such as Malmö and Copenhagen have already experienced severe pluvial flooding that has caused extensive damage. Adapting to climate change by creating flood resilient urban areas is therefo

Digitaliseringen har revolutionerat våra samhällen. Hur vi kommunicerar och interagerar med varandra och hur vi handlar produkter och tjänster har över de senaste åren varit föremål för drastiska förändringar. Bakom dessa förändringar står ett fåtal digitala jättar. Trots att förändringarna har ökat konsumentvälfärden och i regel varit positiva, har farhågor lyfts. Detta har inte minst uppmärksammDigitalization has revolutionized our societies. How we communicate and interact with one another and how we purchase goods and services has changed drastically. A select few technological giants are the driving force behind these changes. Despite the increase in consumer welfare and the overall heightened standard of living, concerns have been raised, especially within the discourse of competitio
