Byggbranschen står för elva procent av koldioxidutsläppen i världen (WorldGBC, 2019). För att minimera den påverkan måste byggbranschen förbättra byggnaders hållbarhet. Detta skulle kunna göras genom att få en mer exakt förståelse för de laster som påverkar byggnader. En av de laster som påverkar dimensioneringen av byggnader är den nyttiga lasten. Den nyttiga lasten beror på belastningar som upps

I Sverige har forskningen om svartas upplevelser i akademin varit begränsade, på grund av en självbild som är färgblind och som förhindrar erkännandet av svartas existens (praktik, tanke, kroppar). Denna studie är ett kulturanalytiskt försök att kunna bidra och bredda forskningsfältet för kritiska studier i den svenska akademin, genom att utforska svarta kvinnors känslomässiga och kroppsliga uppleIn Sweden the research about Black people’s experiences in academia is quite limited, because of a self-image that is colourblind which prevents the acknowledgement of Black existence (practice, thought, bodies). This thesis is a cultural analytical attempt to contribute and widen the research field of critical studies in Swedish academia, through exploring Black female’s emotional and body experi
Climate hazards are increasing globally both in their intensity and frequency, requiring more integrated approaches that also strengthen national leadership over disaster management. Mobilizing resources ex-ante has been demonstrated as an effective way of reducing the impacts of hazards on livelihoods and protecting development gains, while social protection (SP) has also been demonstrating capac
As globalization and development seem to have “removed geographical boundaries between countries”, the resulting patterns of human mobility (Gomory, 2002; Leach, Scoones & Stirling, 2010) have attracted the discursive study on the topic of migration. There are migration aspects that categorize migrants as regular, irregular, voluntary or involuntary. Such categorizations include the perspectiv

Sweden, like large parts of the developed world, faces right now a multitude of unique issues related to housing. It has become an expensive commodity, especially for younger people. Most of the existing ho

This text is an attempt to re-evaluate the significance of Roman imports in Scandinavian contexts as well as to answer overarching questions concerning frontier zones, and the building of core-periphery relationships. This is achieved by applying the Roman concepts of hospitium and dona militaria as well as theoretical frameworks such as provincial ritual practices and cultural hybridisation to a
Since a large growth in population occurred during the 1800-1900 centuries in Sweden, an expansion of agricultural land became a necessity. The government provided farmers with an allowance to exploit wetlands. A large portion of wetlands has since then been lost and used for cultivation, in particular peat lands. The drainage of peat lands results in a loss in biodiversity, poorer water condition

I Sverige stiftar den folkvalda riksdagen lag. Riksdagen får dock inte stifta vilka lagar den vill – dess kompetens inskränks av regler till skydd för mänskliga rättigheter. Idén om universella mänskliga rättigheter kommer från den så kallade naturrättsläran. Naturrättstänkare har sedan antiken argumenterat för att alla människor har vissa grundläggande fri- och rättigheter, oavsett om dessa stiftIn Sweden, the elected Riksdag is the legislator. However, the Riksdag may not pass just any law – its competence is limited by rules protecting human rights. The concept of universal human rights originates from the philosophical tradition of natural law. Natural law philosophers have argued, since Antiquity, that all humans have certain fundamental rights and liberties as a consequence of human
Den internationella investeringsrätten regleras i stort genom ett system av bilaterala investeringsavtal upprättat två stater emellan. Dessa skyddar internationella investeringar genom en rad olika substantiella rättigheter. Det utmärkande skyddet de erbjuder är dock rätten till skiljeförfarande. Genom skiljeklausuler i investeringsavtal har investerare möjlighet att stämma stater genom skiljeförfInternational investment law is regulated by a system of bilateral investment agreements. These protect international investments through a number of substantive rights. One of the principle rights conferred is through the dispute settlement clause, which generally dictates that disputes shall be settled through arbitration. Thus, investors have the possibility of suing states through an arbitrati

Föreskriften om nödvärn finns i 24 kap. 1 § brottsbalken (BrB). Bestämmelsen anger att den som är föremål för ett brottsligt angrepp har rätt att försvara sig. Denna försvarsrätt inträder redan då ett brottsligt angrepp är överhängande. Den angripne är således på ett relativt tidigt stadium berättigad att vidta försvarsåtgärder. För att en gärning som begås i en nödvärnssituation ska vara rättsenlAccording to Chapter 24 paragraph 1 of the Swedish Penal Code a person who is subject to an impending or an embarked criminal attack has a right to protect himself by using self-defence. The fact that this right arises already when a criminal attack is impending means that the person who is subject to the attack has the right to defend himself at a quite early stage. An act committed in a self-def
