Housing market in Punjab faces number of challenges related to supply, population growth, access to utilities, affordability, and consumer mortgages. In 2017, Punjab, Pakistan, experienced a total urban housing deficit of about 2.3 million units.

In 2023, the Swedish state-owned enterprise LKAB revealed that it had found Europe’s largest deposit of critical minerals, which are needed in green technology. Being located on indigenous territory, a mine would impact the migration of reindeers, a Sami practice which form the basis of their culture and status as indigenous peoples under international law. This prompted questions about what respo
Europeiska kommissionen har sedan en tid tillbaka upplevt brister i EU:s kontroll av företagskoncentrationer. Detta eftersom EU:s koncentrationsförordning inte anses fånga alla potentiellt konkurrensrättsligt problematiska företagsförvärv. Diskussionerna har gällt både förordningens kriterier för "unionsdimension", alltså tröskelvärdena för omsättning, och "koncentration", alltThe European Commission has for some time perceived enforcement gaps in relation to the jurisdictional scope of EU merger control not being adequate in capturing all potentially competitively problematic mergers and acquisitions. The discussions have been both in regard to the criteria of ‘Union dimension’, i.e. the turnover thresholds, and to the criteria of ‘concentration’, i.e. the threshold of
This paper aims to discuss peace and its understanding with regards to peace education in Swedish curriculums. The purpose of the paper is to focus on education and peace since peace can be so many different things and different understandings of peace can result in conflict since people are referring to different things. Peace education is important to research since it provides worldviews and kn
This study aims to investigate the difference in stock return between traditional sin stocks, new sin stocks, and their respective peer stocks. The purpose was to expand the scarcely researched area of new sin stocks by being the first one to focus on new sin stocks on the American stock market (United States NYSE, AMEX, and NASDAQ stock exchanges), as this area has only been researched in Europe
This study aims to evaluate whisky as an investment through two research questions: “What affects the value of whisky?” and “Should whisky be included in the optimal portfolio?”. The value of whisky is examined by constructing a hedonic regression using five hedonic attributes. Also, the convenience yield associated with whisky is examined. Secondly, the performance of whisky is evaluated by using
Digitalisation and its effect on the circular economy have been a major debate. Thus, this study investigates the possible contributions of Digital Business Models (DBMs) toward the Circular Economy (CE) by utilising circular economy core values through its multiple dimensions. Following a qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight participants in the retail sector.
Secure attachment representations, rooted in experiences with primary caregivers in early childhood, are considered a fundamental resource for a happy and healthy life. According to meta-analytical data, every third adult does not have secure attachment representations. Lacking secure attachment representations is associated with numerous health-related problems, perhaps mediated by increased susc
It is important to examine parent advocacy programs to understand how they function in a society where there are many structural obstacles to those with little power. These programs can provide an impactful way to level out power imbalances. This case study examined through a lens of legal consciousness theory, power and empowerment theory, and the four capitals as developed by Bourdieu, the pur
The fashion industry is a significant contributor to global environmental and social issues. But as a system, it is composed of different stakeholders that can work together to make a change. One of those actors involved are small fashion labels, which according to the European Commission, account for more than 90% of the workforce and produce almost 60% of the value within the textile industry (2
Codependency is a term used to describe a range of behaviors among persons who are affected by the problematic drug use of family members. This article analyzes how 32 Swedish parents of adult children with drug problems talked about and understood codependency. The sociology of trouble was used as a theoretical framework and three significant themes were identified in the interviews. The parents
Sylvia Plath’s The Bell Jar, Margaret Atwood’s The Edible Woman and Doris Lessing’s “To Room Nineteen” are three literary texts in which the three protagonists seem to play a role which makes them miserable and suicidal. This essay explores what elements that are involved in making these women unhappy and self-destructive. Based on a close reading of the three texts and Judith Butler’s theories on
This thesis explored how large Swedish organizations leverage continuous learning to enhance organizational agility in response to the challenges of operating in a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous) world. The aim was to examine how learning initiatives are enhancing and sustaining organizational agility in two case companies, one in entertainment technology and one in industrial t
Despite the significant advances in cancer genomics, identifying all cancer drivers (CDs) remains a challenge. Most of the existing approaches rely heavily on mutational data, while emerging research has started to put focus on epigenetic regulation in cancer development. This is why the OriGENE model —a convolutional neural network (CNN) was developed to classify CDs based on H3K4me3 histone modi
The Palestinian refugee question is one of the most protracted and politically charged refugee crises of modern times and in modern history. Palestinian refugees in Lebanon have endured generations of statelessness, constrained by exclusionary legal frameworks. This study examines the condition of statelessness among Palestinian refugee youth in Lebanon and the formation of political agency and ev
This thesis studies whether in-utero drought exposure increases infant mortality and whether groundwater access can buffer this effect. Using georeferenced DHS data from Tanzania and high-resolution rainfall and groundwater data, I find that each additional month of in-utero drought raises infant mortality by 0.4 percentage points, which is a 5 percent increase relative to the sample mean.
