The climate change is affecting small island developing states to the amount that the surface of Tuvalu might disappear and the country therefore risk to lose its sovereignty (Pacific Small Island Developing State 2009, p. 10-12). By investigating environmental security through climate displacement this thesis will conduct a case study of Tuvalu. The theory of ecofeminism and intersectionality wil
The global transport industry stands in front of the next big technology shift; the implementation of autonomous vehicles. This shift might remove the physical driver from the truck, increase safety and improve flexibility. This will most likely change the fundamentals of the transportation industry. Autonomous trucks are anticipated to be implemented for short distance transportation in gated are
Skatterätt är ett område som ständigt förändras och påverkas av politiska beslut. Frågan är hur stort utrymme lagstiftaren har när det kommer till att använda den skatterättsliga lagstiftningen för att uppnå politiska mål. Uppsatsen syftar därför till att utreda lagstiftarens utrymme, vilket exemplifieras genom att studera värnskatten. Framställningen kommer utgå från följande frågeställningar: Tax law is an area that is constantly changing and affected by political decisions. The question is how much scope the legislature has when it comes to using tax law to achieve political agendas. The thesis therefore aims to investigate the legislature's scope, exemplified by studying the austerity tax. The exposition will be based on the following questions: 1. What were the motives behind t
Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck har fått stor uppmärksamhet i samhällsdebat-ten under 2000-talet. Den ökade uppmärksamheten har resulterat i en rad åt-gärder från staten, däribland kriminaliseringar. För att en ny kriminalisering ska vidtas behöver den kunna rättfärdigas. I statliga utredningar och doktrin framförs kriterier och principer som bör vara uppfyllda för att en kriminali-sering ska vaHonor-related violence and oppression has received a lot of attention in Swe-den during the 2000s. The increased attention has resulted in a number of measures from the state, including criminalization. A new criminalization must be justified in order to be established. State investigations and doctrines set out criteria and principles that should be met for a criminalization to be ac-ceptable. In
År 1998 infördes fridskränkningsbrotten i brottsbalken för att kunna lagföra personer som utsätter sin partner eller annan närstående person för systematiskt och långvarigt våld. Ett av rekvisiten för grov fridskränkning är att offer och förövare ska vara närstående. Bestämmelsen tar främst sikte på personer som har en parrelation utan att vara samboende eller gifta. Syftet med uppsatsen är att kIn 1998, the violation of integrity offences were introduced into The Swedish Penal Code in order to prosecute people who expose their partner or another close person to systematic and long-term violence. One of the necessary requisites in the violation of integrity offences is that victims and perpetrators must have a close relationship. The provision is primarily aimed at people who have an inti
Efforts to reform the public sectors of Zambia have been ongoing since the 1990s with objectives to ensure efficient and high-quality provision of public goods and services to all citizens and battling persistently high levels of poverty. Outcomes have however been mixed at best. This study assesses how reforms to the public sectors of Zambia have been framed in terms of what problem representati
Städer ger upphov till klimatpåverkan både i uppförandet och användningen av bebyggelsen. Studier av svenska kommuner visar att det finns stora utmaningar i att få klimatarbetet att gå från övergripande strategiska mål till implementering och att det saknas handfast vägledning i beslutssituationer. Syftet med detta examensarbete har varit att undersöka hur modellering kan användas vid planering a
The field of research on military intervention is usually based on grand theories in international relations. This thesis argues that understanding can be created through a narrower approach where narratives and discourses are examined. Therefore, this study intends to examine how strategic narratives are used at the political level to justify international military operations. The thesis bases it
Wetland and biodiversity loss affect both ecosystem function and human wellbeing. However, it is argued that the incremental rate of farmland abandonment provides opportunities for ecological restoration to help reverse this negative trend. This thesis applies ecosystem service framework and psychological ownership theory to analyse a wetland restoration project in a semi-urban town of Jablonné v
Density is often used as a strategy to achieve a sustainable development in contemporary urban planning. A higher concentration in the urban environment of functions and people are argued to be essential to handle the climate change as well as achieving social equity. While a desire for higher density is often formulated in urban development plans by regions or municipalities, there lies a confusi
Stereotypforskning har använt olika metoder för att mäta stereotypinnehåll. En teori som gör det är Stereotype Content Model (SCM) där stereotypinnehåll mäts enligt dimensionerna kompetens och värme (Fiske et al., 2002) eller dess paralleller agens och kommunalitet (Abele et al., 2016). För att få fram sanna mätningar av stereotypinnehåll, och undvika påverkan av social önskvärdhet, ombeds deltagaStereotype research has previously employed different techniques of measuring stereotype content. One such theory is the Stereotype Content Model (SCM) in which content is measured along the dimensions of competence and warmth (Fiske et al., 2002) or the parallels agency and communion (Abele et al., 2016). To capture these dimensions accurately, without norms of what is socially acceptable affecti
The aim of this master thesis was to analyse the possibility to use fibre optic cables for critical safety features in high reliability facilities. In more detail, this report investigates how transferred data in fibre optic cables are affected by fire and if there is any risk that the data becomes corrupted or lost when exposed to fire conditions. This report also investigates if this risk can be
This thesis explores what psychological violence against women in heterosexual relationships looks like in today's Sweden. The thesis explores how psychological violence against women in heterosexual relationships are interpreted and influenced by gender, class, ethnicity,and age through interviews with 12 women who have worked with women or girls who have been subjected to threats and physica
Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur svensklärare arbetar med skrivundervisning generellt och hur svensklärare arbetar specifikt för att stötta flickor med ADHD. Datainsamlingen skedde under hösten 2020 genom semistrukturerade kvalitativa intervjuer över Zoom. Antalet svarande var tre lärare från högstadieskolan och en lärare från gymnasieskolan. Svaren jämfördes och ställdes mot varandra. ResultatThe aim of the study is to investigate how teachers of Swedish work with teaching writing in general and specifically to support girls with ADHD. The data collection took place during the autumn of 2020 through semi structured qualitative interviews conducted over Zoom. Three teachers from year 7 9 in the comprehensive school and one teacher from the Upper Secondary school part took in the intervi
Every year, a big number of Swedish municipalities market themselves through an Emigration fair in Holland, with the aim to attract Dutch workforce, or more generally, bring new inhabitants to their respective region. In the marketing campaigns, specific stereotypic images of Sweden emerge, that are said to be specifically attractive to the putative Dutch migrants. The municipal representation in
A translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 produces the fusion gene BCR-ABL that leads to the constitutive activity of a tyrosine kinase. This initiates the uncontrolled proliferation of myeloid cells causing Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML). The disorder is treated by tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that prevent the progression of CML into more advanced phases. The treatment must be sustained
After being subjugated under the authoritarian regime of Ben Ali for 23 years, the citizens of Tunisia took to the streets in 2010 and demanded a change. The uprising then evolved into a democratization process, but even though one of the main reasons for the uprising was the oppressing and corrupt security sector, the attempts of security sector reform (SSR) have been unsuccessful in “democratizi
Under de senaste åren har en debatt rörande ökade kostnader för veterinärvård eskalerat. Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda konsumenters rättigheter vid fastställandet av priset för veterinärmedicinska behandlingar. Den primära lagen beträffande avtal om tjänster är Konsumenttjänstlagen (1985:716) (KtjL). Behandling av levande djur är emellertid undantaget från lagens tillämpningsområde. Lagen kDuring the last couple of years, a debate about increased costs for veterinary care has escalated. This paper aims to assess consumers’ rights when determining the price for a veterinary treatment. The Consumers Services Act is the primary law concerning contracts between consumers and traders. Treatment of animals is derogated from the Consumers Services Act. However, the law can be applicable an
Much has been written about why a woman stays in a relationship with a man who exposes her to violence, while less has been written about what causes the woman to one day pack a bag and actually leave the man. Interviews with six persons, who either has personal experience from intimate partner violence or possesses knowledge of the subject through their profession, has been conducted in order to
This thesis explores the European Commission’s proposal on General Reverse Charge Mechanism. VAT is a final tax on consumption. It is imposed on every transaction in the supply chain with the general aim of being deductible and thus being neutral for businesses with the right to deduct. The initial aim of the VAT system was to operate as if all the transactions occurred in one single country; howe
