Konflikt är en grogrund för könsbaserat våld. Tidigare diskriminerande strukturer förstärks och mynnar ut i våld inom ramen för konflikten. I komplexa kontexter präglade av religiösa, etniska och/eller politiska slitningar förstärks vissa individers utsatthet. Under ISIS attack mot Sinjar-regionen i norra Irak utgjorde den religiösa minoritetsgruppen Yazidier måltavlan. Genom ett systematisk förfaConflict is a breeding ground for gender-based violence. Previous discriminatory structures are reinforced and often result in conflict-related gender-based violence. In complex contexts characterized by religious, ethnic and / or political frictions, the vulnerability of some individuals is exacerbated. During the ISIS attack in the Sinjar region in northern Iraq, the religious minority group Yaz

Introduction and aim Atherosclerotic stenosis located at the carotid bifurcation accounts for 10% − 20% of all Transient Ischemic Attacks (TIA) and ischemic strokes, which occurs when Atherosclerotic stenosis, or so-called plaque, ruptures. The current method to evaluate carotid atherosclerotic stenosis is to measure the degree of stenosis. Strong markers for plaque rupture lies in the plaque cont

Norway has Europe’s highest share of renewable electricity production and the lowest power sector emissions. Thanks to the country’s stable power production, Norway has affordable and stable access to electricity, leading to industries choosing to relocate to the country. To keep this industry, the country needs to meet the increasing electricity demand and ensure it is still competitively priced.

Att hyra lösa saker är både praktiskt och billigt. I många fall fungerar det som ett alternativ till köp. Hyra har anor långt tillbaka och kallades tidigare saklega. Något som skiljer hyresförhållandet från andra avtalstyper är hyrestagarens vårdplikt och uthyrarens bevarandeplikt. Vårdplikten innebär att hyrestagaren med omsorg ska ta hand om hyresobjektet under hela hyrestiden. Bevarandeplikten Renting movable property is both practical and cheap. In many cases it serves as an alternative to buying. Renting has ancient origins and was previously referred to as “saklega”. Two aspect that distinguishes the rental relationship from other types of contracts is the renter’s duty of care1 and the owner’s duty of preservation. The duty of care entails that the renter is responsible to take care

Hävning förklaras på olika sätt och innebörden av hävningsbegreppet är inte helt tydlig. En hävning kan innebära omfattande konsekvenser för parterna, vilket särskilt gäller avseende entreprenadavtal. I fråga om hävning av entreprenader är det endast den återstående delen av entreprenaden som hävs, varmed den utförda delen som inte omfattas av hävningen i stället hanteras genom en ekonomisk reglerTermination is explained in various ways and the meaning of the concept of termination is not entirely clear. Termination of a contract can have far-reaching consequences for the parties, and this is particularly true in the case of construction contracts. When construction contracts are terminated, only the remaining part of the contract is terminated, and the part of the contract that has been p

Den 1 januari 2014 infördes de svenska reglerna om forskning och utveckl-ing. Reglerna infördes mot bakgrund av den positiva effekten innovation en-ligt nationalekonomisk teori anses ha på tillväxt, och att ett skattemässigt inci-tament förväntas leda till ökade investeringar i FoU. Det svenska FoU-avdraget är idag utformat som en direkt nedsättning av ar-betsgivaravgifterna och den allmänna löneThe Swedish rules on research and development were introduced on January 1, 2014, against the backdrop of the positive impact that innovation according to economic theory is considered to have on growth, and the expectation that a tax incentive would lead to increased investments in R&D. The Swedish R&D tax credit is designed as a direct reduction of employer’s social security contribution

Self-levelling flooring compounds (SLCs) are mainly used on concrete floors. Their purpose is to smooth the floors and make them horizontal. The fact that they are self-levelling means that they spread out like water over the floor before hardening to a horizontal layer. Some of them are also advertised as being self-desiccating. A quote from a big manufacturer on the Swedish market regarding thei

The work included different types of analyzes and measurements of the villa. A literature study was done to get a better view of t

SAMMANFATTNING Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att utreda frågan huruvida FN:s konvention om avskaffande av all slags diskriminering av kvinnor (kvinnokonventionen) bör göras till svensk lag för att öka jämställdheten mellan män och kvinnor. I detta syfte diskuterar uppsatsen kvinnokonventionens jämställdhetsstandard och konventionens ställning i Sverige. Vidare presenteras och analyseras för- SUMMARY This study aims to examine whether the UN Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) should be incorporated into Swedish law, in order to enhance equality between women and men. This study discusses the anti-discrimination standard of CEDAW and the status of the convention in Sweden. Furthermore, this study presents and analyses the pros and cons of the incorpora

The European Commission has acknowledged the lack of cross-border utilization of losses. Companies operating internationally want to have a possibility to offset losses against taxable profits at the same time or as soon as possible after the losses incurred. If no such possibility is at hand, a cash-flow disadvantage arises and also, it leads to segmentation of the internal market. The asymmetrie

Norra Djurgårdsstaden är ett stadsutvecklingsområde i nordöstra Stockholm och har delvis marksanerats ned till grundvattennivån. De föroreningar som förekommit är polycykliska aromater, cyanider, tungmetaller och BTEX. 2003 inleddes en omfattande markundersökning varpå man hittade höga halter bensen i ett av grundvattenrören. Undersökningen följdes upp med ett in-situ försök att avlägsna föroreninNorra Djurgårdsstaden is an urban area in northeastern Stockholm and has been soil remediated down to the water table. The contamination in the area includes polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), cyanide, heavy metals and BTEX.

Sammanfattning En sedan länge efterfrågad genomgång av de EG-rättsliga konkurrensreglerna inleddes med Kommissionens vitbok den 28 april 1999. Denna så kallade Moderniseringsreform ledde bl.a. till Rådets förordning 1/2003 om tillämpning av konkurrensreglerna i artiklarna 81 och 82 i EG-fördraget. Denna trädde i kraft den 1 maj 2004 samtidigt som tio nya stater tillträdde EU. Den nya förordningen Summary A long-sought review of the EC competition law was initiated with the Commission's White Paper on 28 April 1999. This so-called modernizing reform resulted, inter alia, in Council Regulation 1/2003 on the implementa-tion of the rules on competition laid down in Articles 81 and 82 of the Treaty. The regulation came into force on the 1 May 2004 at the same time as ten new states joined t

Background: Growing corporate awareness of environmental and social impacts, coupled with initiatives like the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi), is driving companies to address greenhouse gas emissions, particularly indirect Scope 3 emissions which often constitute the largest share of their carbon footprint. For ASSA ABLOY, Scope 3 emissions represent 99% of its total footprint, with purch

Climate change and anthropogenic influences are significantly altering marine ecosystems in the Baltic Sea, posing substantial challenges for fisheries. The Bornholm Basin, located in the central Baltic Sea, is a crucial fishing area for the region and has been experiencing shifts in fish distribution and abundance due to changing oceanographic conditions. These changes affect not only fish migrat

Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a technique that utilizes the random thermal motion of water molecules to probe the microstructure of the tissue. Because it has excellent soft tissue contrast and high sensitivity to changes in the microstructure, it has established itself as a powerful tool to detect and quantify both normal development and pathological processes. Diffusion encoding

This master’s thesis investigates deoxygenation strategies for biomass-derived pyrolysis oil (PO). The study focuses on industrial scalability, economic feasibility, and compatibility with existing refinery infrastructure. It was conducted in collaboration with Preem AB, aligning with their renewable fuel initiatives. The high oxygen content and instability of PO present challenges when integrated

Coherent Diffraction Imaging (CDI) is an imaging technique that allows getting a high contrast image from phase interactions within a sample. However, the field of X-ray CDI has been dealing with a common issue known as the phase problem. Upon interaction with the sample, the incoming photons get absorbed or scatter and therefore, the wavefield gets altered. It continues to propagate towards the d

Fram till 1976 var föräldrars möjligheter till gemensam vårdnad begränsade. Vårdnadsformen var endast tillåten för gifta föräldrar som bodde tillsammans. Sedan dess har reglerna om gemensam vårdnad genomgått en omfattande reformering. I uppsatsen undersöks om synen på gemensam vårdnad har förändrats över tid i svensk rätt. Detta sker genom två delstudier. Den första delstudien är rättsdogmatisk ocUntil 1976, parents’ options for joint custody were limited. This type of child custody was only permitted for married parents living together. Since then, the rules on joint custody have undergone extensive reform. This thesis examines whether the view of joint custody has changed over time in Swedish law. This is done through two sub-studies. The first sub-study is legal-dogmatic and addresses h

Den kriminalpolitiska debatten har under de senaste åren till stor del handlat om de unga lagöverträdarna. Barn under 15 år utnyttjas av den organiserade brottsligheten till att begå grova brott till följd av deras särbehandling inom straffrätten. Dessa barn har ännu inte uppnått straffbarhetsåldern men kan likväl begå brott i juridisk mening enligt svensk rätt. Sedan år 1964 har det funnits en möThe debate on criminal policy has in recent years largely been about young offenders. Children under the age of 15 are exploited by organised crime in order to commit serious crimes as a result of childrens special treatment in criminal law. These children have not yet reached the age of criminal responsibility but can still commit crimes in the legal sense according to Swedish law. Since 1964, th

Denna uppsats undersöker vilken betydelse EU-domstolens avgörande i Seraing kan få för svenska domstolars verkställighet av utländska kommersiella skiljedomar. Fokus ligger särskilt på hur ordre public-förbehållet i svensk rätt och internationell skiljerätt påverkas av EU-rättens ökade inflytande över skiljeförfaranden. Uppsatsen är skriven med dels en rättsdogmatisk, dels en EU-rättslig metod. SThis thesis examines the implications of the Seraing decision for the enforcement of foreign commercial arbitral awards in Swedish courts. The analysis focuses particularly on how the public policy exception in Swedish arbitration law may be affected by the increasing influence of European Union law on international arbitration. The thesis is written using both a legal dogmatic and EU legal method
