The human rights regime and the trade regime set obligations on states that may create conflicts that challenge a state’s autonomy for policy and regulatory practices. To deal with these conflicts, we argue that states employ different causal mechanisms from Risse, Ropp and Sikkink’s spiral model when setting their commitments to, and executing compliance with, these regime obligations, and that t

Denna studie ämnar öka kunskapen om hur kommunikativ likriktning mellan institutioner upprätthåller etablerade föreställningar om hållbar utveckling i samhället. Från ett socialkonstruktionistiskt perspektiv analyseras hur FN konstruerar diskurser kring hållbarhet i Agenda 2030 samt om dessa diskurser reproduceras i Helsingborgs stads hållbarhetskommunikation. Vidare undersöks hur hållbarhetsdiskuThe aim of this study is to increase the knowledge of how communicative standardisation between institutions upholds established notions about sustainable development in society. With a social constructionist approach, we analyse how sustainability discourses are constructed within the Agenda 2030, and if these discourses are reproduced in the sustainability communication of the city of Helsingbor

Som huvudregel sker det genom att aktiebolaget emitterar nya aktier, teckningsoptioner eller konvertibler. Utgångspunkten är att befintliga ägare ska ha företrädesrätt till att teckna det antal av de emitterade värdepapperna som står i proportion till ägarens befintliga innehav. Sådana emissioner

På grund av den snabba förändringen i det audiovisuella medielandskapet får konsumenterna och särskilt minderåriga alltmer tillgång till medieinnehåll via andra digitala plattformar än traditionella TV och video on demand tjänster. Av den anledningen är det idag mer lönsamt för företag att annonsera genom produktplacering och sponsring på plattformar för videodelning som inte regleras inom ramen fDue to the rapidly changing pace of the audiovisual media landscape, consumers and especially minors are increasingly accessing media content via other digital platforms than traditional television and on-demand services. For that reason, is it today more profitable for companies to advertise through product placement and sponsorship on video-sharing platforms which are not regulated within the sc

Strandskyddet är en förbudslagstiftning och innebär därmed en stor börda för den enskilda då den inskränker dennas äganderätt genom rådighetsinskränkningar. Strandskyddsbestämmelserna medför följaktligen en intressekonflikt mellan den enskildas intresse av äganderätt och det allmänna intressen som strandskyddet syftar till att skydda. I egendomsskyddet uttrycks därför Europakonventionens allmänna Shore protection is a legislation controlling use of property, therefore resulting in a burden for the individual property owner.

Further the problem is explored with different organization that can come across such a problem. The rapport uses degree

Källsortering i historiska byggnader - är det möjligt? God avfallshantering och ökad materialåtervinning är viktiga pusselbitar i mänsklighetens strävan efter en hållbar utveckling. Att införa källsorteringssystem i vissa byggnader är dock lättare sagt än gjort. AF-borgen i Lund, Akademiska föreningens hus, är ett exempel på en byggnad där det uppkommer betydande mängder avfall, men där möjlighGood waste management is essential to reach a sustainable development, although it is not always easy to achieve. Historical buildings have several requirements concerning fire security, working environment and aesthetics which can make it hard for them to introduce sorting systems. The purpose of this study is to investigate the obstacles historical buildings can encounter concerning indoor waste

Rysk-amerikanska Emma Goldman och kinesiska He-Yin Zhen kom från två olika delar av världen och var aktiva inom olika kunskapstraditioner och kulturer. Ändå var de båda anarkister som kämpade för kvinnlig frigörelse, och båda var de kritiska till de samtida rörelserna som stred för kvinnors politiska rättigheter. Det finns få studier som jämför tidig amerikansk feminism med tidig kinesisk feminismRussian-American Emma Goldman and Chinese He-Yin Zhen came from different parts of the world, and thus weren’t active within the same knowledge systems and cultures. However, they were both anarchists fighting for the liberation of women, and both were strongly criticising the contemporary women’s suffrage movements. Few comparisons have been made between early Chinese feminism and early American
