Den nuvarande ökningen av icke-statliga aktörer som bedriver kommersiell verksamhet i rymden har lett till juridiska frågor om bland annat ansvar. Är det nuvarande internationella rättsliga ramverket för yttre rymden tillräckligt etablerat för att hantera övergången från ett rättsområde som en gång dominerades av stater, till ett område som idag drivs av privata ekonomiska intressen? I denna uppThe important rise of non-state actors performing commercial activities in outer space has resulted in legal issues regarding inter alia responsibility. The question is whether the current international legal framework on outer space is sufficiently established to cope with a continuously shifting legal area once dominated by States to one today driven by private economic interests.

Efter aktiveringen av Internationella brottmålsdomstolens jurisdiktion över aggressionsbrottet i juli 2018 är dessa gärningar för första gången sedan Nürnbergtribunalen möjliga att väcka åtal för i en internationell domstol.

Problem: Literature yields ambiguous results regarding the effectiveness of the business incubators’ role as network intermediaries, which is reflected in the varying networking behavior of entrepreneurs. Network expectations as a driver for the networking behavior of entrepreneurs have not been studied within this context and present a void in current literature. Purpose: This study seeks to exp

The current thesis critically investigates whether training and using third-party data in artificial neural networks (ANNs) could constitute a liability for copyright infringement. Furthermore, the present paper sets out to explore whether training and using ANNs could fall within the IP right holders' exclusive rights. In this regard, this thesis will mainly focus on the reproduction parts as

The phenomenon of gender-based violence (GBV) and the magnitude it takes in Argentina is raising great concerns within the country, intergovernmental organisations and women’s movements. Since 2015 a women’s movement named Ni Una Menos was established to create visibility and fight for the eradication of gender-based violence in the country. Building upon the Integrative Ecological Framework, usin

Poor water quality and lack of access to improved water services continue to be problems in developing countries such as Peru, with a stronger vulnerability in rural communities. Aiming to enhance practical knowledge through a case study in the rural community of Cuncani, this thesis explores why this community has not been able to obtain a sustainable and safe water supply and how a water solutio

A robot should follow a given path as accurately as possible. There are however almost always deviations from the desired path, and when the deviations become too large it may be a problem. Some of the deviations stem from transmissions of the robot, and the deviations become more pronounced when there are process forces and gravitational forces present, that affect the transmissions. When positio

Staphylococcus aureus är en kommensal bakterie, vars främsta nisch i människokroppen är huden och näsan. Det är också en patogen förmögen att orsaka ett stort antal infektioner, bland annat matförgiftning, infekterade sår men också allvarligare infektioner som blodförgiftning och hjärtmuskelinflammation. Meticillin-resistenta Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) är resistenta mot praktiskt taget alla ß-laStaphylococcus aureus is a human commensal bacterium, living primarily on the skin and in the nose. It is also a pathogen able to cause a wide range of diseases, including food poisoning, infection of wounds but also more serious infections such as bacteremia and endocarditis. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is resistant to virtually every ß-lactam antibiotic, making infections

This thesis explores the underlying reasons for recent protests in Peru that began after the ousting of President Pedro Castillo in December of last year. The research is an explorative case study based on the thematic analysis of news articles. By drawing on decolonial theory, social movement theorising, as well as the concepts of identity and place, it examines the context of the protests and th

Microglial cells are brain-specific macrophages that swiftly react to disruptive events in the brain. Microglial activation leads to specific modifications, including proliferation, morphological changes, migration to the site of insult, and changes in gene expression profiles. A change in inflammatory status has been linked to many neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease and Alzhei

BOADICEA is a comprehensive risk prediction model for breast and/or ovarian cancer (BC/OC) and for carrying pathogenic variants (PVs) in cancer susceptibility genes. In addition to BRCA1 and BRCA2, BOADICEA version 6 includes PALB2, CHEK2, ATM, BARD1, RAD51C and RAD51D. To validate its predictions for these genes, we conducted a retrospective study including 2033 individuals counselled at clinical

In both the US and EU, policymakers and government agencies are acknowledging theimportance of having access to repair options, particularly for vulnerable product users who depend on their products. As such, repair can play an important role as a resource for resilience, but research is missing. We propose that repair can act as a resource for resilience. A comprehensive, structured way to unders

This article addresses the variation of anti-corruption and anti-elite salience in party positioning across Europe. It demonstrates that while anti-corruption salience is primarily related to the (regional) context in which a party operates, anti-elite salience is primarily a function of party ideology. Extreme left and extreme conservative (TAN) parties are significantly more likely to emphasize

One-stage method of polysulfone (PSf) membrane modification by the addition of polyacrylic acid (PAA, Mn = 250 kg·mol−1) to the coagulation bath during membrane preparation via non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) was proposed. The effect of PAA concentration on the membrane structure, hydrophilicity, zeta potential, separation performance and antifouling stability in ultrafiltration of lys
