Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera kommunernas lagefterlevnad och om den varierar beroende av vilken politisk majoritet som styr kommunen. Konkret kommer det att ske genom att vi analyserar i vilken utsträckning kommunerna implementerat lagen om kommunala bostadsaktiebolagen, manifesterat som större utdelningar och högre vinstmarginaler. Vi kommer att sätta detta i relation till om kommuner
Uppsatsens syfte har varit att kritiskt granska den svenska debatten kring DNA-analys för asylsökande barns rätt till familjeåterförening i Sverige och därmed se ifall principen om barnets bästa, definierat i svenska rättsakter, efterföljs. Genom den vägledande domen från Migrationsöverdomstolen den 18 januari 2012 fastslogs att DNA-analys kan användas för att styrka biologiskt släktskap med föräl
On the basis of data from Swedish, this thesis investigates the Small Clause Hypothesis put forth by Kush et al. (2013). The hypothesis is suggested to account for the rare possibility of relative clause extraction, a phenomenon that poses a challenge for syntactic theories of locality. In brief, the hypothesis states that the possibility to extract from relative clauses is restricted to cases whe

Abstract Through qualitative method, this essay intends to study which expectations exist for school counselors in the school organization, accordning to the new school law (2010:800), which puts demands on all schools to have access to a counselor. The study consists of 24 survey answers from educators, as well as interviews with a special education teacher and a principal. Half of the survey res
'Silence' in one word grasps the gendered structures within the Danish daycare regime. Through a rearticulation of this notion a detailed inquiry of processes with gendered effects within the public administration of the daycare regime is carried out. Though public daycare is an universal welfare service with political attention where gender-issues are very present, and a general gender-ma
The aim of this study is to empirically investigate the impact of credit ratings on European firms’ capital structure decisions based on the premise of Darren Kisgen’s Credit Ratings–Capital Structure (CR-CS) hypothesis: that firms face discrete costs (benefits) associated with differences in credit rating levels. This project's empirical investigations are based on historical data from Stand
A theoretical study is presented, in which the nonlinear response of a bi-ased Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) is calculated. The calculations are based on the nonequilibrium Green’s function formalism. Assuming a periodic electromagnetic field in the calculations, this formalism provides not only the stationary behavior Green’s functions, but also the part of the response that varies in time according
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Vid södra delen av Mylonitzonen finns mafiska bergarter som innehåller mineral bildade under mycket höga tryck. Dessa mineral har vid höga temperaturer och tryck ersatt tidigare mineral som ej längre varit stabila. Detta skedde då bergkedjan Svekonorvegiderna byggdes upp för ca 1 miljard år sedan. Delar av berggrunden pressades då ned mer än 50 km när den södra Mafic rocks in the southern part of the Mylonite zone preserve remnants of a high-pressure mineral assemblage. The rocks occur as lenses in migmatized gneisses. The mineral assemblage equilibrated at high-pressure granulite facies conditions during the Sveconorwegian orogeny. Mineral textures and zoning indicate a prograde metamorphism in the amphibolite facies, equilibration at high-pressure gran
As China modernizes, its waste management capacities are put to a test. Faced by significant pressures to find a solution for growing municipal solid waste, China’s authorities have embraced waste incineration technology as a seemingly cost-efficient alternative to landfills. Against this push, significant societal opposition against the construction of waste incinerators has been mounting. Yet wh
According to Article 2 UN Convention on Biological Diversity, biotechnology is "any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use". Biotechnology is widespread in agriculture, food production and medicine. Agricultural biotechnology has been extensively applied in field crop produc
Institutions are commonly thought of as crucial determinants for economic development. This argument is also prominent in the literature regarding property rights institutions as many studies stress their significance for economic performance. In light of these studies, many international organizations have argued strongly for land rights reforms in developing countries as means to reduce poverty,
Sammanfattning Provokativa åtgärder är en effektiv metod som polisen främst använder vid grov organiserad brottslighet. Det finns flera olika varianter av provokativa åtgärder, dock ingen så omdiskuterad som brottsprovokation. Otillbörlig brottsprovokation innebär att en polis eller en privatperson, som på uppdrag av polisen, har provocerat fram ett brott av gärningsmannen som denne utan polisens Summary Provocative action is an effective policing method used against serious organized criminal activity. There are several variations of provocative action, however, none as controversial as entrapment. Entrapment is considered to have occurred when a Police Officer, or a private person acting on behalf of the police, incites the committing of an offence that the offender otherwise would not h
It is estimated that approximately 8-10% of yogurt-based products stick to the carton packaging material surface (Hansson, 2011), and therefore consumers cannot pour the entire product out of the package. This is a multi-dimensional problem since product loss is expensive, because all the resources throughout the supply chain are wasted (European Parliament, 2011; FAO, 2012). In addition, the rema
This thesis, aiming to contribute to a better understanding of why Croats in Bosnia and Herzegovina fear a Bosniak-dominated state, is a response to development efforts of the international community to democratize Bosnian-Herzegovinian society, generate a shared sense of nationhood among all citizens and speed up its path towards Euro-Atlantic integrations. With the use of conceptual framework, t
This thesis evaluates the UNISDR led campaign Making Cities Resilient and specifically investigates how cities are matched within the campaign’s initiative city-to-city learning, which factors that may be conducive for successful partnerships as well as whether the participating cities implements activities in accordance with the rights-based approach. The evaluation is partly based on a literatur

Metallic hip prosthesis is an implant that gets more common and comes with problems like metallosis (inflammation due to metallic debris). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which is a superior method when imaging soft tissue (compared to other medical imaging techniques) is affected by metal implants and will result in a distorted image.
