Straffrättslig symbollagstiftning är ett svårdefinierat begrepp. En utgångspunkt är emellertid att begreppet har en inneboende negativ laddning. Att sätta etiketten symbollagstiftning på en strafflag innebär också att kritik riktas mot strafflagen. Ett viss mått av försiktighet måste därför iakttas vid symbollagstiftningsanalysen. Symbollagstiftning är inte en matematisk formel, snarare en misstanSymbolic criminal legislation is hard to define. Despite that, it is obvious that the concept is inherently negative. To label a criminal act “symbolic”, is also a way of criticizing it. It is therefore important to be cautious while analyzing the concept. Symbolic legislation is not a mathematic formula, rather a suspicion of a phenomenon. Neither is symbolic legislation a question of “either-or”

This Master thesis analyzes the causes to the Lebanese civil war and if Lebanon can be regarded as a deviant case in comparison to existing civil war theories that explain the outbreak of civil wars. The author has composed his own civil war theory, consisting of the most commonly used explanatory factors behind the causes of civil wars and this theory is applied on the Lebanese civil war to be ab

Current pallet configurations, specifically pallet heights, are hindering the packaging solutions provider, Boxon Pak AB, from making an optimum use of transport resources. Differences in pallet heights in combination with the vertical space limitation of the transportation units sometimes preclude double stacking the pallets, which delivers as a consequence the shipment of unfilled trucks and und

In model-based development, floating-point arithmetic is typically used for computations in algorithms and models. However, on many target platforms, there is no support for floating-point computations due to constraints on, e.g., price, size, power consumption, and execution speed. A solution is to use fixed-point arithmetic instead. Manually transforming floating-point code to fixedpoint code is

Uppsatsen är ett försök att visa hur, i Walter Ljungquits svit om sitt alter ego Jerk Dandelin, litteratur fungerar som en social handling och blir till ett slags samhällskritik.

För det andra, genom att studera Walter Ljungquists litterära teknik, redgör studien
