En suverän stat har en inneboende rättighet att bestämma sitt konstitutionella namn. På grund av namnkonflikten med Grekland har denna rättighet inskränkts för Makedonien. Greklands krav på ett namnbyte har ingen rättslig grund, men som medlem i internationella organisationer har landet haft ett övertag i namnkonflikten och en maktposition. Det ledde till att EG inte erkände Makedonien som en suveA sovereign state has an inherent right to choose its constitutional name. This right has been restricted for Macedonia, due to the name conflict with Greece. Greece's requirement for Macedonia to change its name has no legal basis, but as a member of international organizations the country has had an advantage in the name conflict and a position of power. It led the EC not to recognize Macedo

The study aims to examine the effects on election results for three nische parties’ in Sweden due to mainstream parties accommodating nische parties’ politics, as well as why these effects appear. This is relevant since mainstream parties may accommodate not because it finds it attractive or aversive, but because the mainstream party recognizes a strategy attractive in order to eliminate an oppone

This essay examines the working-class representation in the Swedish Social Democratic party´s parliament group, during the following parliament periods: 1982-1985, 1994-1998 and 2006-2010. The study is based on the detailed biographical compilations about the members of the parliament, which the Swedish parliament has released since 1982. The results of my research show that the number of working-

Sex matters! It is natural to ask questions about where the species of this planet come from and how they become what they are. As a matter of fact, development of new species is in process all the time. Somebody named this process speciation. Like language which enables us to guess where the people might come from, some traits make it possible to recognize the individuals from the same populatio

This thesis sets out to further expand on the knowledge on governance of NGOs in disaster recovery and reconstruction by looking at the coordination between and governance of national and international NGOs after the 2015 earthquakes in Nepal. The study is based on interviews and field-observations from Kathmandu and Rasuwa district and applies governance networks and governability theory to expla

Optisk stimulerad luminiscens-analys (OSL-analys) är en metod som används för att datera bl.a. sediment från senkvartär tid. Det är av intresse för att ta reda på när geologiska händelser ägde rum och när isarna rört sig under senaste glaciationen och deglaciationen. Ett mineral som kan användas för åldersbestämning med OSL är kvarts. OSL åldersbestämmer inte kvartskornet utan avsättningsåldern fö

The case company is a major Swedish industry listed on the stock market and the company is going through organisational changes that has led to two product areas being merged together. These two product areas need to understand and evaluate their current global distribution network. This thesis has helped the case company to evaluate air freight distribution and optimize the material flow from a E

Behavior and social interactions are key features to determine the phenotype of an organism. Observing behavioral manifestations give insides on a fundamental level of how inner mechanisms work. But how is it possible to predict behavior in a way, such that it can be quantify and analyzed? One traditional strategy is to annotate the behavior by hand. Observing the animals and making notes about th

A company willing to move abroad go through different set of rules starting with article 54 of the TFEU that consecrated the Freedom of Establishment. Even though some steps have been made, depending on which theory is used by the Member State, some fiscal impediments can arise in case of cross-border operations. Member States can be tempted to levy exit tax when the company leaves their territory

Förmågan att återskapa förvrängda bilder på ett effektivt sätt har länge varit ett mål inom datorgrafik och bildanalys. I vårt examensarbete, i samarbete med NVIDIA, har vi tittat på ett nytt tillvägagångsätt för detta problem inom maskininlärning och jämfört detta med redan existerande metoder.Loss functions are a crucial part of image processing when using modern neural networks, trained with stochastic gradient descent. There exist multiple loss functions today, some claiming to be perceptual. Researchers at NVIDIA recently published a proposal of such a metric called FLIP. This led to our work on this thesis where we present a comparison between multiple loss functions, both establis

In-band full-duplex has emerged as an attractive solution for significantly enhancing the throughput of wireless communication systems by doubling the spectrum efficiency compared to conventional half-duplex systems. However, the existence of self-interference is a significant barrier to operate full-duplex systems. In order to cancel the self-interference by analog and digital solutions, time syn

This thesis is a case study which investigates political parties’ reasons and driving forces for advocating an expansion of E6 in Skåne with respect to the fact that the highway today has reached its full capacity. The two biggest parties in the region, the Social Democratic Party and the Moderate Party, have been included in the research. The arguments stated by each party, revealed through semi-

Uppsatsen undersöker möjligheten att registrera ordmärken och analyserar i synnerhet vilka ordmärken som kan registreras med endast ursprunglig särskiljningsförmåga och vilka ordmärken som kräver förvärvad särskiljningsförmåga för att få registreras. Uppsatsen klarlägger därutöver hur möjligheten att förvärva särskiljningsförmåga förhåller sig frihållningsbehovet. Av praxis framgår att suggestiva This thesis examines the possibility of registering trademarks and it in particular analyzes which trademarks can be registered with only original distinctive character and which trademarks require acquired distinctive character in order to be registered. In addition, the thesis examines how the possibility of acquiring distinctive character relates to the requirement of availability. It is eviden

The aim of this thesis is to discover how ideals about women’s workers’ identity regarding to bildning (workers’ education), class and organization are produced and constructed within the Swedish socialist journal Morgonbris (i.e. Morning Breeze) 1904–1916. The journal was first published within the labor union of women in Sweden, and was later on intertwined with the Social democratic women’s lea

Designed as a case study, this thesis sheds light on women’s narratives about their experiences as home-based seamstresses working in the informal sector in Hanoi. It examines the ways in which social reproduction (SR) intersects with productive activities through the integration of paid work into the domestic space. It brings literature on informality and home-based work into conversation with fe

The relationship between politicians and public servants constitutes a key area of interest within the study of public policy. Earlier theories considering how to interpret public servants' role in public administration are predominantly applicable to public servants working closely with citizens. Therefore, when considering the role high public servants play both within public administration
