Sexual violence (SV) is a problem that disproportionately involves men acting violently towards women, especially against women from social minority groups like women with disabilities or with an immigration background. In addressing the issue, policies to address sexual violence honor this empirical reality by developing measures that are focused on supporting women and that are targeted at t

Energisystemsmodellering med fokus på den svenska vattenkraftens förmåga att balansera en ökad andel vind- och solelproduktion Det pågår idag en global omställning av elsystemet, från fossila till förnybara energikällor. Den nya elproduktionen väntas till stor del utgöras av variabel produktion, vilket medför nya utmaningar för elsystemet. I examensarbetet utvecklas en modell för att undersöka huThis thesis considers the representation of intermittent and flexible power production in long-term energy system models, and more specifically at the Swedish hydropower's capability of balancing the variations from increased shares of power from intermittent energy sources. The thesis aims to investigate how a present national TIMES model can be improved to better capture the technical, physi

Under de senaste decennierna har förutsättningarna på arbetsmarknaden förändrats, något som har medfört att stress och arbetsrelaterad ohälsa blivit ett stort samhällsproblem. Detta faktum medför ökade krav på arbetsgivaren i form av att skapa balans mellan krav och resurser i arbetet. Av arbetsmiljölagen framgår det att arbetsgivaren är skyldig att vidta alla åtgärder för att motverka uppkomstenOver the last few decades the conditions on the labour market have changed, something that also have contributed to the fact that stress and work-related illness have become a social problem. This actuality increases the demands for the employer when it comes to providing a work situation in balance between requirements and resources. The Work Environment Act states that the employer is obliged t

Elförsörjningen som till huvuddel kommer från fossila bränslen uppfyller vanligen inte efterfrågan i Irak. Samtidigt som det finns goda förutsättningar och stor potential för att installera och utnyttja solel som en lösning för den bristande elförsörjningen men med omtanke som värnar om miljön. Idag har cirka 20 procent av den irakiska befolkningen ingen tillgång till el, de återstående 80 procent

The purpose of this study is to explore identity dynamics in mergers and acquisitions. As Clark, Gioia, Ketchen and Thomas (2010) point out, traditional economic perspectives are often not sufficient in explaining merger outcomes. Extant research on identity largely take a functionalist approach and frequently use quantitative methods, not taking the individual seriously. In contrast, we want to b

Är det möjligt att galaxer kan utbyta enorma samlingar stjärnor utan att vi märker det? I detta arbete så undersöker jag huruvida dvärg galaxer kan lämna över globulära stjärnhopar till större spiralgalaxer då de kommer mycket nära, genom så kallade tidvatten-krafter. Dessa globulära stjärnhopar består utav hundra tusentals stjärnor vilka är bundna till varandra genom gravitation. Var de kommer ifThe globular cluster population of large spiral galaxies can be divided into two populations: one population which formed in-situ and one which has been assembled through capture of clusters that have been tidally stripped away from other galaxies during close encounters or mergers. In this work, I focus on the globular cluster MGC1, which is orbiting the M31 galaxy. MGC1 is an extremely isolated

When the Act on System of choice was implemented on the Swedish homecare market in 2009, there seemed to be an assumed understanding that by increasing competition on the eldercare market through privatization it would create better opportunities for women. Entrepreneurship was phrased as a solution for empowering and emancipating women in breaking out from a fixed role in low-status professions.

Fund companies and banks argue that letting them manage one’s money is a wise decision. They argue that they are able to create substantial growth in value for the investor without requiring any other input than a small fee and an amount to be invested. This essay tests this claim in a two folded analysis. Time series data with historical value developments of 24 out of the 30 largest Swedish equ

Whole mitochondrial genome sequences have the potential to clarify avian haemosporidian phylogenies and evolution. In this study, we sequenced mitochondrial genomes from isolates of 26 genetic lineages of avian haemosporidian parasites of the genus Haemoproteus (subgenus Parahaemoproteus) with a nested long-range PCR protocol and next-generation sequencing. We identified more mixed infections than

Ända sedan de grekiska filosofernas tid har psykiskt sjuka människor inte ansetts vara ansvariga för sina handlingar. I Sverige fanns en tillräknelighetsreglering fram till dess att brottsbalken trädde i kraft år 1965. Tiden före brottsbalken präglades av många diskussioner huruvida tillräknelighetsbestämmelserna skulle finnas kvar eller inte och de utsattes för mycket kritik. Denna uppsats behandEver since the time of the Greek philosophers, people with mental disease have been considered not to be responsible for their actions. In Sweden there was an accountability (=tillräknelighet) regulation until the Swedish Criminal Code entered into force in 1965. The time before the Criminal Code was characterized by lots of discussions about the question about if the accountability regulation oug

There is a variety of capitalist systems in Europe that many scholars attempt to classify using social, political and economical determinants. Among a diversity of methods, institutional approach has received a growing recognition in the recent years. It tries to explain why the European countries’ socio-economic models follow different paths in their developments through analysis of formal and in

During the period 1905 to 1940 it was possible to get a loan from the state to buy land and build a small farm or a house in rural areas. This loan act and its effects have been studied earlier in different ways, but never as a total study for a geographic region. The region Malmöhus Län has been chosen. The purpose of this paper is to study in which parts of the area loans were taken and who sold

The purpose of this study was to gain deeper understanding of how family members to people who died from ALS or malign brain tumours experienced the time from when the diagnosis was given to the actual time of decease. The frame of questions during this investigation was: How was the diagnosis given? How did the family members experience the care provided by the hospital’s neurological department?

In a time full of environmental changes the need for understandings of the operational work and services, the control of the business and key figures, and flexibility to adapt to different circumstances is crucial in many organizations. In a time where national borders are getting more and more invisible and where the humans are traveling and moving more than ever it is even more important to have

Title: Is the teaching method of Suzuki pedagogy the right modus operandi for all string teachers? This survey aims to give an insight into Swedish Suzuki pedagogues and former Suzuki pupils’ way of thinking, their opinions of, and experiences concerning Suzuki pedagogues and the Suzuki pedagogy. Both Suzuki pedagogues and former Suzuki pupils have been interviewed for this survey. This has been

Sammanfattning Det enda som behövs för att investera i ett publikt aktiebolag är kapital. En investering i ett privat aktiebolag kräver, utöver erforderligt kapital, att en befintlig aktieägare vill avyttra sina aktier. En aktieägare behöver sedan inte vara delaktig i aktiebolagets förvaltning utan intar istället en passiv ägarroll. Investering i ett aktiebolag medför att man som delägare delegera
