Grief is the pain and suffering which we can experience after a loss. In this phase, a bereavement group can be helpf
The main purpose of this essay is to analyze the late medieval shirt found in the cathedral of Lund. It has been preserved in the church and later on exhibited in the museum of Lunds cathedral. The most interesting thing about this shirt is probably its close connection to the secular world, as well as to the church. At first sight it appears to be a liturgical garment, it seams to be far too big
In majority of academic literature related to BDSM (bondage-discipline, dominance-submission, and sadism-masochism) the focus is often centred on men and their experiences within the community. The limited focus on women and their motivations to engage in BDSM dynamics has been a driving force in this thesis. Therefore, this research aims to address this gap and explore female BDSM practitioners&#
Stellar streams are made of stars that originate from globular clusters or dwarf satellite galaxies that have been disturbed by the gravitational pull from the galaxy they orbit. These stellar streams hold information about the history of the progenitor as well as information about the gravitational potential of the host galaxy. In this thesis we make use of the high resolution cosmological zoom s
The topic of this study is to develop and validate an analysis method of nicotine nasal spray produced at McNeil AB. When developing the analysis method, several parameters were determined in advance to make the method more similar to other analysis methods at the company, making it more practical. However, other parameters were adjusted with the aim to improve the resolution and to fulfil the upd

There is a political will to use public procurement as a strategic tool to promote more sustainable practices in the food industry. There are many aspects of sustainable food consumption, and one aspect that is getting increased attention is locally produced food. This study aims to examine how municipalities in the
Idag är huvudregeln i Offentlighets- och sekretesslagen (2009:400), OSL, att vårdnadshavaren har rätt att ta del av de uppgifter som dess barn lämnar till alltifrån skolkurator till polis. Detta beror på att vårdnadshavaren har en rätt och skyldighet enligt Föräldrabalken (1949:381), FB, att bestämma i de frågor som rör barnet. I den här uppsatsen tar jag upp de intressen som vägs mot varandra melToday, the main rule in Offentlighets- och sekretesslagen (2009:400), OSL, is, that the parent has a right to access any information, provided by his or her child to everything from the school counselor to the police department. The reason for this, is the parent’s right and obligation, according to Föräldrabalken (1949:381), FB, to decide in questions concerning the child. In this essay I intend
Den svenska straffrätten har under det senaste århundradet genomgått en mängd förändringar. Allt som oftast har påföljdssystemet varit utformad efter de för tillfället förhärskande bestraffningsteorierna. Det finns en lång tradition av särbehandling av unga lagöverträdare i Sverige och till viss del så tas hänsyn till andra intressen när det gäller ungdomar. Denna framställning ska besvara frågornSwedish penal law has undergone many changes over the last centuries. The sanction system has most often been modelled on penalization theories dominant at the time. Sweden has a long tradition of special treatment of young offenders, and other interest are to some extent taken into consideration when it comes to juvenile offenders compared to adults. This essay will answer the questions of which
Rätten att inte straffas två gånger för samma sak finns både i svensk rätt, Europakonventionen och EU:s rättighetsstadga. Det har länge varit omdiskuterat hur de svenska skattetilläggsreglerna förhåller sig till denna rättighet eftersom skattetillägg tidigare kunde utdömas parallellt med en straffrättslig påföljd. Trots att man kanske hade kunnat ana hur det förhöll sig med utgångspunkt i tidigareThe right not to be tried or punished twice is prescribed by Swedish law, the European Convention and the EU Charter of fundamental rights. Since both tax surcharge and criminal sanctions can be imposed in parallel by the Swedish legislation, it has been vividly debated over the last 20 years and critized for being in contravention of this human right. When the European Court presented the Zolotuk
Following the Paris Agreement's climate targets and the modelling community's scenarios of how to reach them, carbon dioxide removal is gaining increasing importance in national climate policies. This is also the case in Denmark – considered by itself and others a climate frontrunner – where biochar is envisioned to cover 10% of the 2030 reduction goal. However, apart from research experiments and
The aim of this article is to understand how a group of subsidised employees constructed a collective identity and symbolic community, and the role the municipal labour market programme played in that process. Further, it explores whether and how a shared collective identity and symbolic community may provide an explanation for how the ‘successful intervention/lock-in effect paradox’ occurs when u
Computational models are commonly used to investigate how the cortical bone microstructure affects fracture resistance; recently, phase-field models have been introduced for this purpose. However, experimentally measured material parameters for the microstructural tissues are lacking. Moreover, as no validation studies have been published, it remains unclear to what extent classical phase-field me
The provision of safe care is complex and difficult to achieve. Awareness of what happens in real time is one of the ways to develop a safe system within a culture of safety. At Great Ormond Street Hospital, we developed and tested a tool specifically designed for patients and families to report harm, with the aim of raising awareness and opportunities for staff to continually improve and provide
