Ensuring sustainable consumption and production is one of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. Sustainable consumption can be supported through regulatory processes. Voluntary private regulatory schemes claiming to contribute to sustainability are a rapidly growing form of regulation. We study one such voluntary sustainability scheme in order to look at the opportunities and challeng
This study aims to gain a greater insight into cycling as an element of mobility among those in later life. The characteristics and views of those who cycle, those who have never cycled, as well as those who have discontinued cycling in later life are the main focus. Malmö, a city in the south of Sweden with a strong emphasis on bicycle planning, is the study area. This study employed a mixed meth
Background and purpose — Patient-reported outcome (PRO) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients with high body mass index (BMI) is controversial. We compared pain, function, quality of life, general health, and satisfaction among different BMI categories preoperatively and 1 year after primary TKA. Patients and methods — 4,318 patients were operated with a TKA for knee osteoarthritis in the Regi
We evaluate proposed interpretations of previous X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) data on liquid water. The split peak in the lone-pair orbital region has been interpreted in terms of either two different structural motifs, tetrahedral and distorted, or as due to core-hole-induced dissociative dynamics; here we add new data on a 1:1 H2O/D2O isotopic mixture and additional spectrum simulations inc
Purpose: Preoperative chemotherapy is underused in conjunction with radical cystectomy (RC) for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) due to concerns for complications and delay of surgery. Prospective data on short-term complications from population-based settings with frequent use of preoperative chemotherapy and standardised reporting of complications is lacking. Methods: We identified 1,340 pa
After 9/11 then U.S president George W Bush declared ”the war against terrorism”. He stated that al-Qaeda and Taliban prisoners were “unlawful combatants”. The significance of this term placed all persons considered as “unlawful combatants” outside the scope and protection of International Humanitarian Law (IHL), which is the law that applies in armed conflicts. This thesis is a comparison between
Recently the question of agriculture development has been emphasised as an important part of balanced sustainable growth in China. My paper accounts for different growth trajectories and development pace between coastal regions and inland provinces. My interest is more convergence-divergence between agriculture development in different regions than convergence-divergence between rural and urban ar
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the cutdowns and the savings can have an effect on the health and the wellbeing of the personnel on the basis of their own stories as well as the meaning of the different leading styles that are used on the daily basis and how that can matter on the creation of a more healthy workplace. The starting point of this study is the experiences of the pers
Av 3:3 första meningen ABL följer: ”Om bolagets verksamhet helt eller delvis skall ha ett annat syfte än att ge vinst till fördelning mellan aktieägarna, skall detta anges i bolagsordningen.” Vid en första anblick ter sig denna bestämmelse inte särskilt komplicerad. Ett aktiebolag drivs i syfte att ge vinst till fördelningen mellan aktieägarna om inget annat står i bolagsordningen. Det så kallaIn accordance to the main rule in 3:3 ABL, the aim of a corporation is to generate profit for distribution among the shareholders, unless otherwise is stated in the articles of association. The profit making purpose should prevail. At first glance, this regulation is not particularly complicated. 3:3 ABL is, however, the decision criterion that should permeate every decision that the company manag

Over the past 30 to 40 years comprehensive fishery policies and certification schemes have attempted to halt the rapid decline and exploitation of commercial fish stocks. However, with seafood as one of the most globalized food commodities and the world’s population increasing exponentially, most commercial stocks are thought to be on the brink of collapse. Some estimates exclaiming that all comme

This thesis examines the extent to which lobbyists bring democratic value to the policy-formulation and decision-making stages of the EU policy process. It is examined through a single case study of the amendment of Directive 2001/83/EC. By adopting an actor-centered institutionalism perspective and through theoretical discussion on Robert Keohane, Fritz Scharpf and Pieter Bouwen, this thesis bui
Regelverket rörande myndigheters handläggningstider är, där det ens existerar, fragmenterat och spritt över ett stort antal lagar. De generella reglerna i 7 § förvaltningslagen har mer av en målsättningskaraktär. Den stora spridningen av reglerna får till resultat att övergripande förändringar, exempelvis ett införande av dröjsmålstalan, får svåröverskådliga effekter. Om en samlad översyn gör i saThe regulatory framework regarding the authorities’ processing times is fragmented and spread across a large number of laws. The general rules of the Swedish Administrative Procedure Act concerning processing times are more of an objective for authorities to strive for. As a result of this fragmentation, it’s difficult to foresee effects of major changes to the regulatory framework. Nevertheless,
Cancer, a group of diseases with abnormal cell growth, is today very common in our society. There are different forms of cancer, which all display different symptoms, but still have mutual characteristics. One such is the way cancer cells create energy which, like healthy cells, starts with glycolysis of glucose to pyruvate. In healthy cells, with sufficient oxygen supply, the enzyme pyruvate dehy
