This article analyses why Singapore compared to Iceland, has received greater amount of FDIs during the time from year: 1977-2007. FDIs have often been proven to increase a state’s economy since it is used as a tool for states to establish a long term relationship and trade with each other. Moreover, New Economic Geography (NEG), a theory written by Paul Krugman will be used to prove that the geog
Climate change has been identified as one of the greatest threats facing our world today. The effects of climate change are expected to increase global sea level rise and the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. This poses a significant risk to cities due to their high population density and economic, political, cultural and commercial activities. Coastal cities in low- and middle-in
The world of data is changing fast, while data always have been present in the world of computer science the importance of data has in the last couple of years grown, and it does not seem to be slowing down. The data usage is steadily increasing and the amount of data is growing, as well as the ever expanding amount of devices that produce data, especially in fields such at IoT and cloud computing
In Sweden rises the competition between construction companies and they are struggling to get projects while they need to perform them at a good profit. The situation is forcing companies to continually develop and streamline their organization while they have high goals in environmental, occupational health, safety and ethics. An important part of the work to streamline companies is that the purc
Provokationers strafflindrande effekt har länge setts som självklar i såväl det svenska som andra länders rättssystem. 1989 infördes en bestämmelse i Brottsbalken som uttryckligen bekräftade att provokationer, eller ordagrant enligt bestämmelsen ”uppenbart kränkande beteende”, skulle ses som en förmildrande omständighet vid bedömningen av ett brotts straffvärde. I förarbetet till bestämmelsen utveThe mitigating effect of provocation has for a long time been considered a given part of the Swedish as well as other judicial systems. In 1989, a new regulation was introduced in the Swedish Penal Code, explicitly confirming the mitigating power of provocation, or, as directly translated from the regulation, “obviously abusive behaviour”, in the assessment of the penal value of a crime. The clues
I Sverige finns det idag möjlighet för skattskyldiga att göra skatteavdrag för resor till och från arbetet med den verkliga resekostnaden. I Norge får man göra ett färdmedelsneutralt skatteavdrag baserat på sträckan mellan hemmet och arbetsplatsen. I Frankrike får alla skattskyldiga ett schabloniserat avdrag om 10 % av inkomsten som är tänkt att täcka samtliga utgifter för att förvärva och bibehålIn present day Sweden, taxpayers can make a tax deduction for actual commuting expenses. In Norway the tax deduction for commuting expenses is based purely on distance and therefore independent on mode of transportation. In France every taxpayer receives a standard deduction of 10 % of their salary. In the United Kingdom, no deduction is allowed for commuting expenses. In 2019, the Swedish governm
Nedmonteringen av rättsstatsprincipen i vissa av EU:s medlemsstater, vilket skett genom omfattande domstolsreformer som inkräktar på rättsväsendets oavhängighet, har resulterat i en ’Rule of Law’-kris som påverkar det unionsrättsliga samarbetet inom flera dimensioner. Respekt för rättsstaten är ett grundläggande krav vid anslutning till unionen enligt artikel 49 FEU och ett fundamentalt värde för The rule of law backsliding in some EU Member States through deficiencies in the judiciary has led to a crisis impacting several dimensions of the European cooperation. Respect for the rule of law is a fundamental value for the Union and thus a pre-condition for accession to the Union according to Article 49 TEU. Pursuant to Article 2 TEU the rule of law is a common value between the Member States
Popular Abstract in Swedish Studierna som presenteras i min avhandling visar att granmonokultur inte är uthålligt skogsbruk i en miljö med högt nedfall av kväve och svavel, som i södra Sverige. Markens näringskapital minskar p g a onaturligt hög tillväxt, orsakad av den höga kvävetillgången, och utlakning p g a markförsurning. När den begränsade tillgången på näring inte motsvarar trädens näringsbThe studies presented in my thesis indicate that growing Norway spruce in monoculture does not constitute sustainable forest management in a high N and S deposition environment, such as in southern Sweden. The combination of N-induced high growth rates and leaching due to soil acidification causes soil reserves of nutrients to decrease. This will increase the risk of nutrient imbalance within the
Efterbildning förekommer på alla plan i samhället. Inom immaterialrätten kan en näringsidkare erhålla omfattande ensamrätt för en prestation eller ett kännetecken. Marknadsföringslagen (MFL) fungerar i praktiken som ett komplement till immaterialrätten där användandet av en efterbildning vid marknadsföring kan utgöra otillbörlig marknadsföring. Det finns inget hinder mot att inneha ensamrättsligt Replication exists at every level in the society. Intellectual property law can give a businessman an extended sole right to a performance or a trademark. In effect the Marketing Act works as a complement various Intellectual Property Rights, where the use of a misleading replication also constitutes an unfair marketing practice. No right holder is precluded from starting legal proceedings both un
Popular Abstract in Swedish Wilms tumör eller nefroblastom är en njurtumör som drabbar 10-15 barn i Sverige varje år. Majoriteten av dessa är under sex år vid insjuknandet och 10 % av de som drabbas överlever inte sjukdomen. Tumören består oftast av tre stycken cellkomponenter: blastem, epitel och stroma. Dessa komponenter kan finnas av olika mängd i tumören. Om en tumör består av mer än 2/3 av nåThe aim of this thesis has been to establish biomarkers for the blastemal element in Wilms tumour (WT) – the most common paediatric kidney cancer. Blastema is, together with epithelium and stroma, one of the three common histological elements of WT. WTs dominated by blastema after preoperative chemotherapy are classified as high risk tumours. According to the SIOP2001 protocol used in most Europea
Popular Abstract in Swedish Neuroblastom är den vanligaste solida tumören, utanför hjärnan, hos små barn och finns nästan inte alls hos vuxna. Varje år insjuknar mellan femton och tjugo barn i Sverige, de flesta före två års ålder. Överlevnaden har ökat de senaste tjugo åren men är fortfarande på låga nivåer för de mer aggressiva formerna. Neuroblastom uppstår i det sympatiska nervsystemet. DärförIn this thesis, the main focus has been on the childhood cancer neuroblastoma, one of the most common and lethal childhood tumours. Neuroblastoma has througout the years continued to be a clinical and biological enigma. Our first focus was on one of the most important biological risk factors in neuroblastoma -- amplification of the oncogene MYCN in the tumour cells. Because amplified MYCN typical
We investigated neural distinctions between inflectional and derivational morphology and their interaction with lexical frequency using the mismatch negativity (MMN), an established neurophysiological index of experience-dependent linguistic memory traces and automatic syntactic processing. We presented our electroencephalography (EEG) study participants with derived and inflected words of variabl
It was long held as an axiom that new neurons are not produced in the adult human brain. More recent studies have identified multipotent cells whose progeny express glial or neuronal markers. This discovery may lead to new therapeutic strategies for CNS disorders, either by stimulating neurogenesis in vivo or by transplanting multipotent progenitor cells (MPCs) that have been propagated and differ
Levels of mRNA for c-fos, nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), TrkB, and TrkC were studied using in situ hybridization in the rat brain at different reperfusion times after unilateral middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Short-term (15 min) MCAO, which does not cause neuronal death, induced elevated BDNF mRNA expression confined to ipsilat
BACKGROUND: The influence of tobacco smoke has been investigated on the growth rate and histology of prostate cancer, both in untreated tumors and in those subjected to fractionated irradiation. METHODS: Twenty-five rats were implanted bilaterally with Dunning R3327 tumor fragments at 10 weeks of age. Approximately 3 months later, they were randomly allocated to two groups, one of which was expose
This book deals with ’have’ in ancient Greek. Two different types of ’have’-constructions were used, viz., on the one hand, the active transitive verb ἔχω and, on the other hand, the verb εἶναι, ’be’, with a complement in the dative case (here called the ἔστι μοι construction). A transitive ’have’ does not seem to be of Proto-Indo-European origin but rather an innovation in separate Indo-European
