EU:s nya mineralstrategi har gett upphov till en jakt på mineraler. Den gröna omställningen kräver säker tillgång till kritiska råmaterial, och i Sverige ses möjligheten att bidra till försörjningen genom initiativ för ökad utvinning. Gruvetableringar medför dock ofta både sociala och miljömässiga påfrestningar för de lokalsamhällen som berörs. Uppsatsen syftar till att tydliggöra i vilken mån sveThe EU’s mineral strategy has initiated a hunt for minerals. The green transition depends on a reliable supply of critical raw materials, and in Sweden, the ambition to contribute to this supply is reflected in recent initiatives aimed at increasing extraction. However, mining operations often impose both social and environmental challenges on the local communities affected. This thesis aims to cl

The rule of law is a cornerstone of modern constitutional democracies, not merely as a safeguard against tyranny and arbitrariness, but as a principle inherently connected to human rights, legal certainty, and democratic accountability. Within the European Union, recent years have witnessed growing tensions between the expansion of regulatory frameworks and the preservation of individual guarantee

Purpose: This study aims to identify the firm-specific, industry, and macroeconomic factors that drive M&A activity among Swedish public companies, and to assess whether these acquisitions result in enhanced financial and operational performance in the subsequent years. Methodology: The study uses binary logistic regression to examine how firms, industry, and macroeconomic characteristics in

The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the compatibility of the current dominant approach in international taxation for intragroup transactions, based on arm’s length principle, with international agreements on development. In this sense, the thesis aims to explore the viability of formulary apportionment as an alternative that could reduce contradictions between international tax law and devel

In Sweden, unemployed jobseekers increasingly encounter automated decision-making systems (ADMs) when applying for both jobs and welfare support. The present qualitative project interpreted the lived experiences of 14 interviewees within these increasingly automated environments, with the aim of finding unjust constraints on their self-determination and self-development, as well as to spot potenti

This research explores Bolivia's environmental policy through the lens of Latin American Feminist Political Ecology (LAFPE) to examine the integration of gender perspectives into environmental governance. Drawing from discourse analysis of official Bolivian government documents and speeches, the study evaluates the alignment between Bolivia's environmental policy and LAFPE principles, part

Pythia with Rope Hadronization, and the Canonical-Statistical Model with strangeness undersaturation (γSCSM), have shown remarkably similar results when simulating strange hadrons yields relative to pion yields as a function of event-multiplicity. As the underlying assumptions in these models are very different, a novel observable is warranted. The aim of this thesis is to show that K0S/(π+ + π−)

This study aims to investigate how corporate venture capital (CVC) and independent venture capital (IVC) influence innovation and financial outcomes in biotechnology firms following their initial public offering (IPO), and how factors like technological fit and failure tolerance mediate innovation outcomes. Using a sample of US-based biotechnology firms that completed IPOs between 2010 and 2020, w

I Tvååker, Halland drivs ett projekt som heter Naturplats Tvååkers Mosse. I denna naturplats ska ett antal informationsskyltar sättas upp för att informera besökare om landskapets utveckling sedan den senaste istiden. Detta arbete utgör grunden för den information som berör bildningen av ett antal ryggformer: en serie ändmoräner och en strandvall belägna kring projektplatsen. Frågorna på när och h

Föreliggande examensarbete ämnar belysa och problematisera lyssneläsningsbegreppet utifrån den mediala debatten i Svenska Dagbladet och genom intervjuer av tre specialpedagoger och tre svensklärare på gymnasial nivå. Syftet innefattar att lyfta fram olika erfarenheter och framställningar av lyssneläsning med tematisk ingång för att sedan diskutera möjliga didaktiska implikationer. Resultaten visarThis study aims to illuminate and problematize the concept of listening-while-reading based on the media debate in Svenska Dagbladet and through interviews with three special needs education teachers and three Swedish teachers at upper secondary level. Through thematic analysis of both articles and interviews themes of experiences and perceptions about listening-while-reading can be highlighted an

This study aims to discourage error-prone intuitive thinking in decision-making for proactive adaptation to disaster risk and climate change and to encourage the realisation of well-founded proactive adaptation measures by developing a decision support tool for Swedish municipal preparedness coordinators. Using a design research methodology, the researchers interviewed preparedness coordinators fr

This research aims to explore how consumer navigate their behavior in response to conflicting ethical dilemmas, in which a brand that was once perceived as ethical breaches its commitments and thereby becomes unethical in public discourse. The theoretical lens of Boltanski and Thévenot’s (2006) Economies of Worth serves as a lens to explore how the participants navigate ethical brands becoming une

This thesis explores how return policies are enacted and adapted in large-scale retail practice through the everyday work of employees. Using Social Practice Theory (SPT) as a theoretical framework, the study investigates how large-scale retail’s 365-day return policy is interpreted, negotiated, and performed by employees across different regional and organizational settings. While return managemen

Sweden has seen a rise in firearm-related violence in recent years, and Malmö is one of three cities that has experienced a significant increase in these crimes. This study isolates the role of socioeconomic variables as determinants of firearm-related violence, exploring whether socioeconomic disadvantage independently influences the spatial distribution of these incidents in Malmö. The spatial c

Adaptation strategies can backfire and cause maladaptive outcomes, yet this is an understudied area in Swedish adaptation work, and a conceptually challenging theme with potential justice implications. The study explored the potential existence of maladaptation in Swedish municipalities in the Motala ström catchment area in collaboration with the FairWater research project, through conducting 18 q

Den effektiva marknadshypotesen säger att det inte går att finna någon form av strategi som riskjusterat avkastar bättre än de finansiella marknaderna. Vidare har det påvisats att autokorrelationen för enskilda aktier historiskt varit låg vilket tyder på att exempelvis teknisk analys torde tillföra lite värde för någon som ämnar avkasta bättre riskjusterat än den breda marknaden. I denna uppsats t

Forskningsfråga: Hur har Swedbank använt redovisningskommunikation under penningtvättskandalen? Syfte: Följande uppsats syftar till att undersöka hur redovisningskommunikation kan användas för att skapa och upprätthålla legitimitet i krissituationer, utifrån en fallstudie av penningtvättskandalen i Swedbank. Uppsatsen avser att komplettera befintlig forskning och utveckla förståelsen för redovisnResearch question: How did swedbank use accounting communication during the money laundering scandal? Purpose: The following thesis aims to explore how accounting communication can be used to create and maintain legitimacy in times of crisis, through a case study of the Swedbank money laundering scandal. The study aims to complement existing research and further expand the understanding of the us

Utforskandet av nya roller av komplement proteinet C3 Komplementsystemet är en uråldrig evolutionär mekanism i det medfödda immunförsvaret och funkar som en av kroppens första försvarslinje. I detta gamla system finns det ett protein som sticker lite mer, ett protein som har en central roll i komplementsystemet, nämligen komplement protein C3. Inte nog med att den har en viktig roll i framkallninThe complement system is an ancient component of the immune system, comprising three pathways: classical, lectin and alternative pathways. Central to these pathways is complement component C3, which converges the three pathways. C3 can be enzymatically cleaved into C3a which functions as an anaphylatoxin, and C3b, which functions as an opsonin. Previously, C3 was understood as a serum protein, how
