I USA är lagar om registrering väl etablerade och inskränker mer på den sexualbrottsdömdes liv än i

Sammandrag Syftet med uppsatsen är att med utgångspunkt i den filosofiska kritik som riktats mot språkets förmåga att inrymma absoluta och eviga sanningar utforska möjligheten att tala om Gud utan att Gud antingen förtingligas eller görs till en onåbar och opersonlig princip som är fjärmad från en kristen pastoral praktik. Genom ett nedslag i Jaques Derridas språkfilosofi visar jag på de teoreti

Den 7 januari 2002 tillkännagav Vita huset att både Al-Qaida- och Talibanmedlemmar som tillfångatagits under konflikten i Afghanistan och fängslats på den amerikanska militärbasen på Guantánamo Bay på Kuba, inte hade rätt till krigsfångestatus utan ansågs vara "illegala kombattanter”. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka vilken legal status dessa Guantánamofångar bör ha. Borde de ha tilOn the 7th of January 2002 the White house announced that the Al Qaida and the Taliban members, that were captured during the conflict in Afghanistan and brought to the US Guantánamo Bay prison in Cuba, were not entitled to Prisoner of War (POW) status. They were rather to be considered as “unlawful combatants”. This thesis aims to explore the status of the Guantánamo Bay detainees. It will answ

Målet med denna randomiserade och kontrollerade studie var att undersöka effekten av poweryoga på aspekter av psykologisk hälsa. Poweryoga är en motionsyoga som har blivit alltmer förkommande på gym. Sedan tidigare finns en stor mängd forskning på olika former av fysisk yoga och dess inverkan på såväl kroppslig som psykologisk hälsa medan effekten av specifikt poweryoga inte har dokumenterats i nåThe aim of this randomized controlled study was to assess the effect of poweryoga on different aspects of psychological health. Poweryoga is a fitness based yoga that has become a frequent occurrence at gyms. Previous studies have shown that different physical types of yoga have a positive effect on both somatic and psychological health while the effect of specifically poweryoga has only been exam

Sweden is often described as being at the forefront of protecting human rights, but nevertheless Swedish pre-trial detention practices have received criticism from torture committees upholding human rights standards on regional and international levels. This suggests that a discrepancy exists between the legal ideals and the domestic practices. From a sociology of law perspective, the present stud

Thesis Purpose: The purpose of this research was to understand how visual electronic word-of-mouth (visual eWOM) creates brand experiences. Thereby, the researchers explored how and which of the underlying dimensions of the brand experience concept are addressed in this particular digital setting. In addition, the researchers intended to show that brand experiences can be created decentralized fro

In autonomous sections within the police, civilian investigators handle crimes, side by side, with police officers. Despite legal restrictions and organizational obstacles, civilian investigators have gradually moved towards the police profession. This aspect has affected legal and social norms and the practice of the police. The main purpose of this Bachelor thesis is to examine which legal and s

Det blir idag allt vanligare att använda sig av beslutsstödssystem i en organisation. Det finns mycket forskning om beslutsstödssystem och användningen av dessa men inte med fokus på det första steget hos användaren, inlärningen. I denna studie sätts användaren i fokus och vi studerar inlärningskurvan till beslutsstödssystemet QlikView. Qlik beskriver på sin hemsida hur lätt det är att lära sig Ql

Enligt svensk lagstiftning begränsas under vissa förutsättningar möjligheten till avdrag för ränta på skulder mellan företag i en intressegemenskap. Syftet med reglerna är att förhindra att den svenska skattebasen minskar eftersom utan bestämmelserna har företag möjligheten att genom koncerninterna lån välja var företagets inkomst ska beskattas. Ränteavdragsbegränsningsreglerna träffar i praktiken

This thesis presents an analysis of glued laminated timber (glulam) when loaded in compression perpendicular to the grain. Both theoretical and experimental investigations have been carried out. The main focus was related to the growth ring patterns of the laminations and their influence on the stresses, the strains and the failure mode. The theoretical part of the work consisted of creating a li

Gränsdragningen mellan näringsverksamhet och hobby inkomstskattemässigt är många gånger svår att göra. Det gäller även gränsdragningen mellan ekonomisk verksamhet och inte ekonomisk verksamhet mervärdesskattemässigt. Speciellt gäller detta verksamheter inom vissa branscher som är kostnadsintensiva, när verksamheterna inte längre är i ett uppstartskede och när de gränsar till ett stort personligt fThe distinction between business activity and hobby according to the income tax legislation is often difficult to determine. There is also the distinction between economic activity and a non-economic activity according to the valued added tax (VAT) legislation. The difficulties especially apply to activities in certain fields that are cost-intensive, when the activities are no longer in a start-up

Data from p–Pb collisions reconstructed with the ALICE experiment at √s = 5.02 TeV is analyzed to study J/Ψ production (a possible Quark Gluon Plasma signal) in different pT ranges. Results obtained by studying the invariant mass distribution via the dielectron decay channel show a significant J/Ψ yield from approximately pT > 2 GeV/c with statistics up to about 10 GeV/c. The signal is observed via

In addressing a theoretical discussion about cultural heritage and the process of Europe-anization, this thesis deals with how the two of them are linked and how European values come to affect the perception of a common European heritage. It further shows the dynamic interaction between local cultural actors, cross-border networking and the European Union’s cultural policy within the multifaceted

This thesis sets out to analyze a potential reframing of who owes whom? The orthodox external debt discourse describes how countries in the global South are heavily indebted to the industrialized North. However, since the industrial revolution, 20 per cent of the world’s population living in the global North has emitted 75-80 per cent of the carbon trapped in the atmosphere today. In a bizarre inv

Wastewater is an excellent source of nutrients and energy. By treating the wastewater in a clever way, it is possible to both recycle nutrients and recover energy, and thereby create opportunities for a sustainable system. In conventional wastewater treatment where the activated sludge process is used, aeration is needed and a lot of biomass is produced. In regions with warmer climate, or if low-v

The aim of this study is to describe and explain what cities should consider when designing a locked bicycle parking. Furthermore, the study will clarify and question the concept of municipalities providing locked bicycle parking, on the basis of the demand and appreciation. The idea of the study is also of to examine how well the overall objective of the locked cycle garages conform to the users

Climate changes are already affecting multiple levels of both private and public sectors. The rate of climate change adaptation must therefore be increased by efficient and intelligent efforts of all actors in society. This study maps the existing and required resources in terms of knowledge in the area of climate change adaptation of employees at Riksbyggen in order to facilitate their efforts to

During the biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) process, the phosphorus accumulating organisms (PAOs) accumulates excess phosphorus in the form of polyphosphorus (poly-P) in the aerobic phase. In the following anaerobic zone, PAOs take up volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and simultaneously releases poly-P. Through hydrolysis of the biosludge, the slowly biodegradable organic carbon is degraded into VFA
