Den svenska tryckfrihetslagstiftningen har en stark historisk förankring i svensk rätt, med rötter i den första tryckfrihetsförordningen från 1766. En period som starkt skiljer sig från utvecklingen av tryckfriheten överlag är åren kring andra världskriget. Samma år som kriget inleddes, 1939, började en mer restriktiv tryckfrihetspolitik utvecklas och de följande åren genomfördes ett flertal kontrThe freedom of the press has a strong historical tradition in Swedish law, with its roots in the act of 1766. A period that strongly differs from the development in general is the period during World War II. The same year as the war began, in 1939, a more restrictive policy regarding freedom of the press developed. During the following years, numerous controversial and constitutionally dubious leg

This research examines the introduction and diffusion of biochar as a soil amendment and biochar producing stoves in Embu County, Kenya, together with its related socio-economic potentials and challenges. The area has seen rapid rates of deforestation together with declining soil fertility during the last couple of decades. Biochar as a soil amendment and biochar producing stoves offers a viable s

Det europeiska gemensamma systemet för mervärdesskatt är tyngt av de oundvikliga effekterna av dess undantag från beskattning. Undantaget i momsdirektivets Artikel 132(1)(f) har till synes som funktion att mildra dessa negativa effekter men verkar alltför trögt att tillämpa som det är utformat i dagsläget. Denna uppsats ämnar reda ut vari svårigheterna med tillämpningen av undantaget ligger och peThe European common system of VAT is burdened by the inevitable effects of its disruptive exemptions. The exemption from tax of cost sharing associations in Article 132(1)(f) of the VAT Directive arguably serves to mitigate these negative effects, but it appears difficult to apply with its current design. This paper pinpoints the difficulties of defining the scope of the exemption and the underlyi

Background: SCOR is a worldwide accepted and renowned process reference model that is developed and endorsed by the non-profit organization Supply Chain Council. It’s a cross-industry diagnostic tool for supply chain management. Consafe Logistics wanted to know if a performance measurement system for warehouse activities could be developed based on the SCOR model, and how it could be applied in th

The objective of this research that has taken me halfway to my PhD degree was to understand how HCCI combustion behaves in a small volume at high rotational speed. The investigation has been carried out using a modified model airplane engine. The whole study can be divided into two main parts; in the first, the nature of the glow plug combustion was investigated through experiments on a metal engi

“Can an engineer, using a current simulation modelling programs, produce evacuation flow rates of a live emergency evacuation a priori to the analyses of the evacuation?” The above question is explored with reference to previous pre-evacuation modelling attempts and a new series of “small-scale” underground train evacuation experiments conducted under the METRO research project. METRO is concerne

Quantum dot (QD)-metal oxide composite forms a "heart" of the QD-sensitized solar cells. It maintains light absorption and electron-hole separation in the system and has been therefore extensively studied. The interest is largely driven by a vision of harvesting the hot carrier energy before it is lost via relaxation. Despite of importance of the process, very little is known about the carrier rel

A measurement is presented of the inclusive cross-section for b-jet production in association with a Z boson in pp collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of root s = 7 TeV. The analysis uses the data sample collected by the ATLAS experiment in 2010, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 36 pb(-1). The event selection requires a Z boson decaying into high P-T electrons or muons,

"Härdelin the Hymnist" Alf Härdelin (1927–2014) was a Swedish theologian and medievalist. In addition to a large academic output, he wrote eleven original hymns and translated 213 from Latin or German into Swedish. This article begins by showing how integrated this activity was with Härdelin’s theological work: both as an academic and as a hymnist he followed the Dominican adage, contemplata alii

Rules on standing hold the power to enable, as well as to foreclose, intervention in regulatory processes. As such, they determine who may challenge regulatory power, and according to which criteria. This makes standing rules pivotal to any legal system. In the EU context, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) has been much criticised over the years for its narrow interpretation of dir

To account for microbial reduction and food quality changes, first-order chemical reaction was added to a model for axial-dispersed plug flow (ADPF), which was recently developed for efficient (In the terminology of this paper, efficient is related to computation time for a given level of accuracy.) computation of time-dependent, large flow systems. It was shown that the extended ADPF model gives

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bihåleinflammation (rinosinuit) definieras som inflammation av näsans och bihålornas slemhinna. Akut rinosinuit är den femte vanligaste orsaken till antibiotikaförskrivning. Kronisk rinosinuit verkar vara ett ökande hälsoproblem, som drabbar drygt 9% av Europas befolkning och innebär en stor belastning på hälsoekonomin. Amerikanska studier har visat att rinosinuit påverRhinosinusitis is defined as an inflammatory process involving the mucosa of the nose and one or more of the paranasal sinuses. The aims of the work presented in this thesis were to investigate the degree to which rhinosinusitis affects the health-related quality of life (HRQOL), and to determine whether the diagnosis of this condition can be improved using Doppler ultrasound. The HRQOL of 207 pa

Popular Abstract in Swedish På apoteket hittar vi den ena burken efter den andra med olika sorters smärtstillande medicin. Hur många av dessa är verkligen effektiva mot ihållande och svår smärta? Många receptbelagda läkemedel som lindrar smärta förändrar samtidigt vårt beteende, till exempel vår förmåga att fatta beslut. De kan dessutom också orsaka slöhet och onormal koordination. För att kunna

Med avseende på de svenska förhållandena vintertid kan frostpåverkan antas ha betydande inverkan på nedbrytningen av betong i vattenbyggnader. Både ytliga och inre skador, vilka misstänks ha orsakats av frostpåverkan, har upptäckts på betong i exempelvis vattenkraftkonstruktioner. Nämnda observationer har väckt frågor om vattenbyggnaders beständighet i ett kallt klimat. Ytligt belägna skador, vilOwing to the winter conditions in Sweden, the effects of frost action may have a considerable impact on the deterioration of concrete. Both superficial and internal damage, which are suspected to have been caused by frost action, have been found in concrete in hydraulic structures. These observations have raised questions about the long-term behaviour of hydraulic structures in cold regions. Supe

Research question: How can the participation in the COII support companies to open up? Methodology: The thesis applies a single case study design to examine an opening up process in relation to open innovation. The thesis used a qualitative research strategy with inductive design with influences of deduction. The primary data emerged from semi-structured interviews to grasp an in-depth understand

Freezing injuries usually take place in thawed plant-based food products. To reduce freezing injuries, Pulse Electric Field (PEF) treatment and Vacuum Impregnation (VI) of cryoprotectant were used before the freezing process. The aim of PEF is to provoke electroporation to the membranes of the plant cells, thereby allowing the cryoprotective solution impregnated by VI to penetrate the cells. PEF

The aim of this study is to explore how employees at fountain houses in south of Sweden describes differences and similarities between them and members. The study is based on six qualitative interviews with employees, who has the title supervisors, from three different fountain houses. The empirics are analyzed throughout two main theories: Hannah Arendt’s theory about action, and Erving Goffman’s

This text is a qualitative study based on interviews with gender non normative co-parents who have experiences with the Danish healthcare system in the process of becoming a parent. The study explores how experiences with the healthcare system can be understood as a part of their subjectivation. Through the lens of queer feminism, represented by Judith Butler, it thus critically investigates how s
