I avtalsrätten utgörs en central princip av pacta sunt servanda – löften ska hållas. Denna princip, som på ytan kanske inte ser ut att innebära några svårigheter, kan leda till bekymmer sett inom ramen för användandet av letter of intent respektive letter of comfort. I det moderna näringslivet har ett flertal sätt att sluta kommersiella avtal vuxit fram och lett till att avtalslagens anbud-accepOne fundamental principle within the field of contract law is pacta sunt servanda - agreements must be kept. This principle, which on the surface might not seem very complicated, may cause problems when applied on the use of letter of intent and letter of comfort. In the modern business world several ways of entering commercial contracts have arisen, causing the offer-and-acceptance-model provide

This thesis begins in the view of AG Geelhoed about the right for the States to allocate the right to tax between them and that discrimination resulting from this does not fall with in scope of the free movement provisions of the Treaty. In an article by the CFE in 2006 a conclusion is drawn that the ECJ is starting to fall in line with Geelhoed’s reasoning. The aim of this thesis is to see if the

This examination work presents a proposition of a conceptual design of a demographic database for CIDS in Nicaragua. Furthermore, an implementation of this database is described. Finally a description of a method to transfer data from the current database to the new is given, together with a smaller implementation. CIDS – Center of Investigation of Demography and Health is located in Nicaragua, Le

This thesis examines the effect of closing down police stations on crime in Sweden from 1996 to 2011. This is done by analyzing the relationship between the number of crimes in a municipality, the crime rate and the closing down of police stations in 288 Swedish municipalities from 1996 to 2011. A quantitative approach using a difference-in-difference estimator and monthly panel-data from question

In this article I argue why everyone (interested in ancient philosophy) should read the works of Sextus Empiricus. Through examples from Sextus Empiricus' Outlines of Pyrrhonism I try to show that the works of Sextus are both humoristic, interesting and philosophically relevant showcasing a perspectivism which is philosophically provoking in its own right and also affords us unique insights into d

BACKGROUND: Pickering emulsions are known to have advantages over conventional emulsions, in particular, improved and long-term stability against coalescence. This research is an eight-year stability investigation of oil-in-water Pickering emulsions stabilized by quinoa starch granules modified by octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA). Two different concentrations of starch (i.e. 200 and 600 mg mL−1 ba

How did human symbolic behavior evolve? Dating up to about 100,000 y ago, the engraved ochre and ostrich eggshell fragments from the South African Blombos Cave and Diepkloof Rock Shelter provide a unique window into presumed early symbolic traditions of Homo sapiens and how they evolved over a period of more than 30,000 y. Using the engravings as stimuli, we report five experiments which suggest t

The purpose of our paper was to understand the motivators that kept the social workers within the profession. Social workers' have a profession that, to the greatest extent, means high working load and difficult problematic issues. On the basis of this starting point we asked us why so many social workers still choose to remain within the profession for several years. The purpose of our paper

The mass media constructs authority by creating 'intimacy at a distance' (John B. Thompson) between public figures and the people. This chapter argues that, over the course of the long nineteenth century, rulers both gained new possibilities for staging their authority through the emerging mass media, and lost control over this mediated staging under specific circumstances, often turning from mast

The Wee1 cell cycle checkpoint kinase prevents premature mitotic entry by inhibiting cyclin-dependent kinases. Chemical inhibitors of Wee1 are currently being tested clinically as targeted anticancer drugs. Wee1 inhibition is thought to be preferentially cytotoxic in p53-defective cancer cells. However, TP53 mutant cancers do not respond consistently to Wee1 inhibitor treatment, indicating the exi

Insulin-independent diabetes mellitus is often accompanied by manifestations of autoimmunity and is frequently associated with certain HLA haplotypes, predominantly DR3 and DR4. Because the major histocompatibility antigens are important determinants of the immune response in various tissues, we have investigated their expression on the pancreatic islet cells. Human, mouse, or rat islets of Langer

This paper seeks to reconstruct the worldview informing Iberian overseas expansion during the long sixteenth century, arguing that this worldview was more indebted to Renaissance cosmology than to a recognisably modern scientific worldview. The paper describes how this cosmology provided the intellectual resources necessary to justify overseas expansion to those who doubted its viability and legit

Starting from the assumption that grammaticalization is rooted in situated language use, the present study tests the connection between functional reanalysis and formal reduction with a synchronic approach. It investigates a case of potential (but not actuated) grammaticalization in Present-Day English, the use of epistemic phrases of the type it could/might be (that), which can serve an adverbial
