Samerna är Sveriges ursprungsfolk och en nationell minoritet. Detta examensarbete undersöker samers rättshistoria med utgångspunkt i hur kolonialism och rasism påverkat samers rättsliga ställning. Det är en rättshistoria som sträcker sig från beskattning till paternalistiskt och hierarkiskt förhållande mellan svenska staten och samer. Hur aktuell denna rättshistoria är idag, samt samernas rättslThe Sami people are Sweden’s indigenous people and one of its national minorities. This thesis examines the legal history of the Sami people from the perspective of how colonialism and racism has affected the legal status of the Sami.

In this thesis I study international space law’s rules on international responsibility and international liability for private satellite launches. I have used a legal dogmatic method to interpret these rules, before subjecting them to an economic analysis on how they will affect the behaviour of private actors and States. Finally I propose solutions to increase the economic efficiency of three dif

In this thesis the effects of utilizing the sample covariance matrix in the estimation of the global minimum variance (GMV) portfolio are presented. When the number of assets, N, are close to the number of observations, T, the sample covariance matrix approaches singularity, leading to a lot of uncertainties in form of estimation error. Due to that the computations of the sample GMV portfolio are

The study explores the influence of agro-processing activities in the lives and livelihoods of cassava farmers in five communities located in four districts in the Ashanti and Volta regions in Ghana. The qualitative research is done by performing thirty-six semi-structured interviews to farmers and stakeholders along the cassava value chain.

Det svenska straffrättsliga systemet bygger på att endast fysiska personer kan begå brott och straffas för dessa. För näringsidkare, såväl fysiska som juridiska personer, har det istället införts särskilda sanktioner såsom företagsbot. Någon särskild reglering av företagsbotsprocessen och näringsidkarens processuella rättigheter vid en talan om företagsbot har däremot inte införts. Samtidigt uppstThe Swedish criminal justice system is based on the fact that only physical persons can commit crimes and be punished for them. For traders, both physical and legal persons, special sanctions such as a corporate fine have been introduced. However, no special regulations of neither the corporate fine procedure nor the procedural rights for traders, when pursuing criminal charges of a corporate fine

Den odränerade skjuvhållfastheten är en viktig geoteknisk parameter som man behöver ha en god uppfattning om i samband med byggnation på lerrika jordarter. Då flertalet av de vanligen tillämpade undersökningsmetoderna är väldigt tidskrävande och kostsamma, finns det ett stort intresse för att undersöka hur alternativa och samtidigt mer enkelt mätbara parametrar, så som flytindex (IL), förhåller siUndrained shear strength is a crucial parameter of the clay-rich sediments commonly used in the design process of geotechnical structures and is determined by several tests. As a considerable part of these tests are cost- and time consuming, it is of interest to investigate the potential relationship with shear strength (cu) with alternative, easily measurable parameters, such as liquidity index (

Electromechanical oscillations is a power system phenomenon where generator rotors oscillate, leading to oscillatory power flows. Damping of such oscillations is important for system stability. Forced oscillations is a special case where one faulty component is the source of the oscillation. This report concerns the Dissipating Energy Flow (DEF), which is an energy-based method for analysing dampi

The purpose of this thesis was to explore how a newly founded Youth Platform in Colombia, called La Mesa de Juventud, could affect the youth community in promoting and capacitating organizational skills, youth citizenship rights and youth influence in public policy making.

The purpose of this thesis was to determine how a heavy duty vehicle manufacturer can create an economical viable business model for used batteries from electric buses and trucks. Heavy duty vehicles are responsible for 30% of on-road CO2 emissions in the European Union, but could be decreased if this sector would be electrified. One major barrier for this transition is the large cost for the batt

This thesis explores the extent to which international human rights law and international labour law place obligations on States to protect migrant workers’ fundamental rights, especially their rights to social security.

Climate change has emerged as the most prominent of the global environment issues and there is a need to evaluate its impact on the agriculture. General Circulation Models (GCMs) which are considered as the most advance tools for estimating future climate change scenarios operate on coarse resolutions. It is for this reason the climate change model MAGICC coupled to SCENGEN developed by the IPCC w

In this essay I have studied the Swedish Working Class whose part of LO. Ideological texts in LO- Magazines is used to quote texts by collective or individual terms. Method and theory material show high level of solidarity and equality while theory shows higher level of individualism and autonomy. My research is closer to Boréus than Blocks. Politics taking under the 1980: s a powerful right

During the past decade the debate on aid has been an area of criticism because of its supposed ineffectiveness. The mixture of development-, security- and conflict solution questions becomes more evident as civil servants, military and NGOs interact in the same territory. This poses the challenge of policies to be coherent. Since it has been argued that policy coherence has attracted small attenti

The study tries to look at the impact of microfinance on the lives of the extreme poor people. There are different views on microcredit/microfinance as a powerful development tool regarding its success in developing the lives of the extreme poor and sometimes these views are contradictory. The purpose of the study was to observe the social and financial changes that have occurred also with an effo

The weakness of Japan's economy during the "lost decade" of the 1990's prompted critical revaluation of many regulatory policies that became entrenched during the country's rapid expansion in the postwar era. At the time of the bursting of Japan's bubble economy, regulation and the behavior of the private sector had combined to cause low levels of imports and inward inves

Almost all adult men and women seek to marry or form a permanent stable relationship with another person for the sake of bear children and rais

Due to water shortage, population increase and growing industrial and agricultural sectors, high stress is being put on the water quality. The importance of keeping good water quality is accentuated by the fact that the River is shared between two countries and that it supports both capitals with drinking wa
