Activation measures were implemented as a condition for social assistance in Sweden in the 1990s. Generally, the goal has been to promote the transition from welfare to work and to(re)integrate people dependent on social assistance into the labour market. Social assistance is regulated by the Social Services Act, which is a framework law that gives municipalities and individual social workers exte

This thesis looks at the issues of land grabbing and climate change in Sub-Saharan Africa. Taking the situations of small-scale farmers – the dominant group of people population-wise and producers of 90 percent of the subcontinent’s food – as its focus, it also looks at how climate change might make land grabbing worse. It is argued that climate change will do so because of: decreased agricultural

Väpnade aktörer, terrorism och illegal handel (med människor, narkotika och vapen) är alla företeelser som, i varierande omfattning, florerar i fallerade stater. Dessa företeelser återfinns inte minst i Colombia, som trots det inte bedöms vara fallerad. Uppsatsens syfte är att påvisa behovet av kvalitativa och kontextspecifika studier, då vår förförståelse är att analyser av fallerade stater, som

Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda kriminaliseringen av våldtäkt inom äktenskap. Detta har gjorts utifrån bland annat statens offentliga utredningar, remissinstansers yttranden och protokoll från riksdagens två kammare. Vilka huvudsakliga faktorer som bidrog till kriminaliseringen är den ledande frågeställningen som genomsyrar uppsatsen. Våldtäkt är ett omdiskuterat ämne i dagens samhälle och harThe purpose of this essay is to study the criminalization of rape within marriage. The essay is based on the state's public inquiries, opinions from several referral bodies and the protocol from the two-chamber Parliament. What pervades this essay is to find the main factors that contributed to the criminalization. Rape has always been a hotly debated question and a serious crime. Today there

Retrospective, propensity-score-adjusted (PSA) studies have indicated to practitioners in the field that contrast-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) after contrast-enhanced CT (CECT) is of minor importance or even non-existent. This has led to controversies between clinicians demanding CECT not to miss any diagnoses and radiologists reluctant or even refusing CECT in risky patients. A critical revi

A search for new phenomena is presented in final states with two leptons and one or no b-tagged jets. The event selection requires the two leptons to have opposite charge, the same flavor (electrons or muons), and a large invariant mass. The analysis is based on the full run-2 proton-proton collision dataset recorded at a center-of-mass energy of s=13 TeV by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC, corres

A search for long-lived particles decaying into hadrons is presented. The analysis uses 139 fb−1 of pp collision data collected at s = 13 TeV by the ATLAS detector at the LHC using events that contain multiple energetic jets and a displaced vertex. The search employs dedicated reconstruction techniques that significantly increase the sensitivity to long-lived particles decaying in the ATLAS inner

Based on high-resolution spectra obtained during gravitational microlensing events we present a detailed elemental abundance analysis of 32 dwarf and subgiant stars in the Galactic bulge. Combined with the sample of 26 stars from the previous papers in this series, we now have 58 microlensed bulge dwarfs and subgiants that have been homogeneously analysed. The main characteristics of the sample an

Due to human-induced environmental changes, many natural populations are undergoing extensive fitness declines. Natural or sexual selection could potentially shift the phenotypic mean of critical traits towards new phenotypic optima, promoting evolutionary rescue. However, this process has rarely been studied in natural populations. Furthermore, the population fitness can also be increased by gene

Peru grapples with severe water insecurity due to climate change and ecosystem degradation. In response, the government implemented the Ecosystem Services Compensation Mechanism for Water Security (MERESE), employing Payment for Ecosystem Services to incentivize nature-based solutions. Central to MERESE are Good Governance Platforms, multi-stakeholder bodies overseeing implementation and ensuring

Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are being widely employed globally to enhance marine safety services and address challenges within the maritime sector. Nevertheless, the provision of these services in East Africa, particularly within the Lake Victoria basin, is deficient and inadequate. Consequently, a study needs to be undertaken to pinpoint certain domains in marine safety that may be

Disorder is an intrinsic feature of all solids, from crystals of atoms to superlattices of colloidal nanoparticles. Unlike atomic crystals, in nanocrystal superlattices, a single misplaced particle can affect the positions of neighbors over long distances, leading to cumulative disorder. This elusive form of collective particle displacement leaves clear signatures in diffraction, but little i

Objective: To investigate the dynamic changes of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase−1 (sFlt−1), placental growth factor (PlGF) and their ratio in maternal plasma, from preeclampsia diagnosis to postpartum, evaluating its clinical utility. Methods: Single-center prospective longitudinal cohort study with repeated sample collection in women with established preeclampsia (PE). Seventy-five (n = 75) wom

Objective: The objectives were to determine the prevalence of meeting criteria for symptoms suggestive of early osteoarthritis (OA) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and to characterize the longitudinal changes in these symptoms during the first two years post-ACLR. Methods: We analyzed data from 10,231 patients aged 14 to 40 years in the New Zealand ACL Registry who completed
