It is impossible to conceive our modern world without plastics. Since the mass production of plastics began, humanity has produced around 8 billion tons of plastic waste, and only 9% has been recycled. Terephthalic acid polymers such as poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) have been massively produced over the last years thanks to their characteristics and applications. Due to their limited biodegra
En innovationsprocess ska ta en idé hela vägen från forskning till marknaden. Detta är dock en lång process i vilken många barriärer kan uppstå. För det här examensarbetet har en fältstudie gjorts på ett stort svenskt industriföretag, med syftet att undersöka deras materialinnovationsprocess. De har upplevt att de möter utmaningar när resultaten av en innovation ska överföras från Forskning och UAn innovation process should take an idea all the way from research to the market. However, this is a long process in which many barriers can appear. For this thesis, a case study has been conducted, at a large Swedish industrial manufacturing company, with the purpose to examine their material innovation process. They have experienced challenges when transferring the results of the innovation fr
This essay seeks to address how power asymmetries or structural biases may affect how European Union (EU) law considers market actors and the freedom to conduct a business, combining EU legal methodology with feminist and queer legal and political theory. The research finds that the EU is a purposive order, whose primary objectives inform the EU legal order and the development of EU law. EU functi
Background The widespread antibiotic resistance is an imminent problem in today’s world. As the number of antibiotic resistance cases increase, it is inevitable to discover alternate treatment options. Probiotics could be one of the potentially important avenues which could be exploited to treat antibiotic resistance and other infections. The holistic approach of probiotics in exerting their benef
In recent years, digital technologies provided new affordances for movement leaders as communication strategies in political protests in order to advance democratisation processes, especially in less developed countries. In Ethiopia, numerous protests have been taken place lately, which were mainly organised along ethnic lines on the basis of nationalist sentiments. Political activists in Tigray,

This study analyze how the exploitation of agricultural land affects Sweden's ability to remain self-sufficient in grain, and the consequences that arise when agricultural land with the highest classification is disappearing the fastest. As the population increases the food production must also increase at the same pace. An important crops for Sweden's food supply is grain and it stands fo
A linear system – one that extracts materials and then puts them in landfills and incinerates them, thus creating a demand for even more materials – is fundamentally unsustainable. Swedish waste management is thought by many to be progressive and at the forefront, when looking at the waste hierarchy. While there is a ban on landfilling non-hazardous and organic waste in Sweden, around 50% is incin
Den informationsteknologiska utvecklingen är något utav både en frälsning och en förbannelse. Å ena sidan ser vi ett stort antal människor för vilka denna utveckling i många avseenden har underlättat deras vardag, å andra sidan ser vi hur upphovsmän och rättighetsinnehavare desperat söker att se efter sina skyddade verk och komma åt intrångsgörare. Genom informationsteknologins näst intill obegrän
Authors: Sandra Feif and Linnéa Kronqvist Title: Shaping a Worldview - A Qualitative Study of Gender in Pronounced Gender Conscious Children’s Literature Supervisor: Marta Kolankiewicz Assessor: Malin Arvidson The aim of this study was to understand how gender and belonging norms are constructed in Swedish children’s literature that is pronounced gender conscious. To examine this, we also studie
The empirical study reported in this essay concerns Swedish university level learners of English as a foreign language (EFL) and their lexical inferencing skills, that is, their ability to guess the meaning of unknown words in a running text using different types of knowledge and textual cues (Haastrup, 1991). More precisely, the present investigation explores the relationship between students’ in
I denna uppsats bearbetas rättsreglerna kring surrogatmoderskap och problem som kan uppstå kring detta ämne. Surrogatmoderskap, som innebär att en kvinna bär fram ett barn till ett annat par, är inte tillåtet i Sverige. Det finns en debatt kring ämnet, där problematiken ställs på sin spets och konsekvenserna, ett tillåtande och ett fortsatt förbud skulle kunna leda till, tas upp. Det är många som In this thesis I will process the Swedish legal rules of surrogacy arrangements and problems that can appear with it. Surrogacy arrangements, when a woman carries and gives birth to a baby for another couple, are illegal in Sweden. There is a discussion about it and a lot of discordant thoughts and the arguments are good, whether they are pro or con surrogacy arrangements. But which ones are the b
Sverige existerar domstolar som huvudsakligen har uppgift att skipa rättvisa. Som huvudregel gäller att domstolars avgöranden, som inte överklagats, ska förbli orubbade. Då en dom inte längre kan överklagas kallas det att domen vinner rättskraft och laga kraft. Rättskraften uppfyller en trygghetsfunktion både för parterna i rättegången och i samhället i överlag, på så sätt att målet får ett avslutIn Sweden courts exist mainly for the purpose of creating justice. As a principle, court rulings, which have not been appealed, shall remain definitive. Once a ruling no longer can be appealed it will gain legal force. As such, the legal force functions as a form of safety for both parties in trials as well as for the community as a whole since it brings an end to the trial and justice is brought.
Denna uppsats undersöker kulturellt folkmord i internationell rätt och analyserar definitionen av folkmord i folkmordskonventionen. Kulturellt folkmord har ansetts vara något annat än folkmord även om båda kan bestå av att med våld överföra barn mellan grupper. Därför fokuserar uppsatsen på klassificeringen av förflyttningar av urfolksbarn som kulturellt folkmord och tillämpligheten av artikel 2(eThis essay seeks to examine cultural genocide in international law and analyze the definition of genocide in the Genocide Convention. Cultural genocide has been considered something other than genocide although both can consist of forcible transfer of children. The essay will therefore focus on the classification of forcible transfer of Indigenous children as cultural genocide and the applicabilit
Möjligheten att häva ett avtal är en åtgärd vilket som huvudregel görs gällande efter att ett avtalsbrott har inträffat. I köplagen regleras emellertid i 62 § om möjligheten att häva ett avtal till följd av anteciperat (befarat) avtalsbrott. En förutsättning för att häva till följd av ett anteciperat avtalsbrott är att det står klart att avtalsbrott faktiskt kommer att ske. Utöver möjligheten att The ability to revoke a contract is a measure which, as a general principle, requires that a breach of contract has occured. However in the Swedish Sales of Goods Act (SFS 1990:931) 62 § there is an exception to the general rule, which states that a party can declare a contract avoided if it is clear that an anticipatory breach will be commited by the other party. A party may also temporarily susp
Längs Kaledonidernas östra erosionsfront finns den världskända bly- och zinkfyndigheten vid Laisvall (totalt 64 miljoner ton bruten malm) och mineraliseringen vid Granberget samt flertalet mindre malmkroppar av impregnationstyp bestående av blyglans och zinkblände som kristalliserat i klastiska bergarter. I äldre litteratur har mineraliseringsprocesserna och tidsspannet för mineralisationen diskutThe eastern Caledonian erosional front hosts the world-class Pb-Zn deposit at Laisvall (64 Mt mined) and Granberget mineralization, northern Sweden, along with several other smaller, related types of deposits consisting of impregnation mineralization of galena and sphalerite in clastic host rocks. Previous work have discussed the nature of the ore-forming processes and constraints for the timing o
Addressing key environmental concerns during humanitarian assistance is critical to prevent additional hazards, reduce risks, and to not further increase the vulnerability of disaster-affected populations. However, the environment remains an underappreciated cross-cutting issue within the humanitarian sector and efforts to systematically integrate environmental concerns into humanitarian assistanc
En av de absolut största utmaningarna inom modern fysik är att beskriva beteendet hos system som består av många partiklar eller föremål som alla interagerar med varandra, så kallade interagerande mångkroppssystem. Solsystemet är ett sådant system, där solen, planeterna och alla månar interagerar med varandra genom tyngdkraften. En annan typ av mångkroppsystem är kristaller. En kristall består aThe physics of interacting many-body systems is a very complex and challenging subject. Therefore one in general needs to use simplified models and approximate methods for studying these systems theoretically. In this work we study the exchange-correlation (xc) potential for the Hubbard-Holstein (HH) model for the application of Density Functional Theory (DFT) to the same. The Hohenberg-Kohn theo
For more than a decade, the Swedish personal assistance act has been subject to extensive cutbacks. More and more people have lost assistance whilst fewer are granted allowances. These cutbacks have transpired without any parliamentary decisions limiting the scope of the legislation. As such, the government claim to have no part in the development, holding the cutbacks to be the result only of adm
Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda skyddsomfånget för artikel 3 i Europakonventionen i de fall svårt sjuka migranter riskerar utvisning till ett land som inte kan erbjuda tillräcklig vård. Med avstamp i artikelns ursprungliga förbud för stater att utsätta individer för tortyr och omänsklig eller förnedrande behandling, anläggs ett rättsutvecklingsperspektiv på hur skyddet har utformats. Vidare appliceThe purpose of this essay is to investigate the scope of protection under article 3 of the European convention on human rights in cases where seriously ill migrants face expulsion to a country which cannot provide adequate health care. Starting with a presentation of the prohibition of torture and inhuman or degrading treatment, the essay presents the development of the law regarding the scope of
