This report assesses the phenomenon of in-work poverty in Sweden inrelation to the four specific VUP groups identified within the Working, Yet Poor project. It is shown that the main drivers of in-work poverty in Sweden are not related to the wage setting system as dealt with through collective bargaining as such. Rather, in-work poverty is more closely associated with work-intensity affecting wor
This work stages a conversation between the French phenomenological philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty and philosophical theology, specifically as developed along an Augustinian trajectory. As the conversation unfolds, the outline of a new ontology is progressively sketched out – one that seeks to preserve the integrity of human beings as part of the natural world, as well as the integrity of the n

The purpose of this master´s thesis was to investigate the role and function of the annual reports of public libraries: for what purpose are they put together and how are they evaluated and utilised.

Focusing on a specific public library and its municipal administration, the authors identify and describe pro

Sustainability, population dynamics and health issues are some of the greater challenges the global society faces today. Meat consumption has emerged as one of the reasons behind the cause and effect of these challenges. There is a growing consensus amongst researchers, industry stakeholders and decision-makers that there is a need to transition into more sustainable alternatives to meat. As a res
Detta arbete behandlar polismyndigheten i Malmös tillämpning av Lösdriverilagen under 1900-talets första decennium och visar att den inte användes som ett redskap för att systematiskt trakassera homosexuella män. Däremot påvisas att det är det tydligt att lagen använts generellt rättsosäkert och för att trakassera vissa män i Malmö. Arbetet visar på hur en mans liv slogs i spillror och hur han g
The purpose of this thesis is to create an understanding of the prerequisites for a sub region, like the MalmöLund region, producing a traffic strategy. The study is divided into a literature study and an empirical study. The empirical study examines the MalmöLund region, strategical documents, and a reference object taken place in the Luleå region. The research questions for this thesis are the f
Popular Abstract in Swedish Utvecklingen av offentlig sektor har de senaste årtiondena till stor del påverkats av New Public Management. Som en konsekvens av detta har en ”marknadisering” av offentliga verksamheter och organisationer skett. Denna ”marknadisering” har resulterat i att det finns organisationer i offentlig sektor som varken passar in på beskrivningen av offentliga organisationer elleDuring the last decades the influence of New Public Management and the “marketisation” of public services, have given us organisations in the public sector that fit neither the mould of what constitutes public sector organisations nor that of private companies. Instead, we now have so-called hybrid organisations. These have become an attractive alternative to the more “bureaucratic” public agencie
Popular Abstract in Swedish Inflammation is a protective response against injury or infection (the invading microbes or their toxins) with the aim being the removal of causal agent followed by the repair process. Without inflammation, infections would go unchecked and wounds would not heal. However, inflammation is like a double-edged sword. Though it is mainly a protective response, some times, iThe pro-inflammatory mediator, Leukotriene D4 (LTD4) is a product of arachidonic acid cascade and has been implicated in asthma and inflammatory bowel diseases. Prolonged inflammatory conditions like ulcerative colitis increases the risk for the development of cancer and the factors that induce the chronic immune response remain uncertain. In this context, in the present study, we examined if expo
Popular Abstract in Swedish Syftet med min avhandling är att skildra de grundläggande drag som bär upp den politiska kulturen för att synliggöra förutsättningarna för politiskt engagemang. Utifrån olika vardagssituationer beskrivs hur det går till att ”göra” politik. Jag följer två nämndordföranden i Helsingborgs kommun i deras politiska vardagsarbete och lyfter fram olika situationer för att konk

The theoretical framework I have constructed for the purpose of this study mainly con

The EU has a legacy of being both a trading power and a normative power. During the course of its existence the EU has acquired a history of collaborating with developing countries, this cooperation is to be guided by the promotion of normative principles, such as: human rights, democracy and good governance to mention a few. One way found to promote these norms is through exports and imports. The
