In the Swedish context, there is limited research on reading promotion in aca-demic libraries. Internationally, some studies exist, but few employ a ca

The removal and neglect of climate policies - a process known as climate policy dismantling (CPD) - both nationally and internationally, is a growing field of critical climate research that has significant implications for long-term climate adaptation globally.

Exoplanet surveys have identified a category of giant planets that orbit very close to their host stars - the so-called hot Jupiters. The origin of such hot Jupiters is a long standing puzzle and has been closely investigated since the first discovery of such planets in 1995. The two competing formation paths suggests that they either migrated inwards during their formation process, through gravit

Den engelska professorn och filosofen Roger Scruton har under ett långt akademiskt liv kritiserat samtiden på många olika sätt. Han är kritisk till det postmoderna samhället och filosofer som Focault, Derrida och Habermas. Han menar att den västerländska kulturen idag står under hot.

Popular science summary Is the European hake “shrinking” under the current fishing practices? Did you know that the current fishing practices have caused significant declines in body size of many exploited fishing stocks? This effect of fishing management has become one of the major threats for commercially exploited fish species and it can have severe negative consequences for the offspring of

Menstruation is a normal body function and a sign of reproductive health. Although it is a fundamental human right for girls and women to have the ability to properly manage their menstruation, it is a long-neglected issue in low-income countries. Pilot studies have provided optimism for the menstrual cup’s potential to improve the quality of life for Ugandan girls and women. Several actors are in

Vid hyra av lokal har hyresgästen som utgångspunkt ett så kallat indirekt besittningsskydd. Skyddet innebär att hyresgästen visserligen inte kan få en förlängning av hyresförhållandet mot hyresvärdens vilja, men hyresgästen har i stället möjlighet att få ersättning enligt 12 kap. 58 b § jordabalken. Ersättningen utgår dels i form av ett schablonbelopp eller minimiersättning, som inte förutsätter sAs a rule, when renting non-residential premises the commercial tenant enjoys a so called indirect protected tenancy. This protection gives the tenant a certain right to be financially compensated according to Chapter 12 paragraph 58 b in the Tenancy Act, since the tenant cannot force an extension of the tenancy agreement against the will of the landlord. The compensation is paid partly in the for

Techniques for interfacing the nervous system using chronically implanted electrodes are turning into invaluable tools for neurophysiological research and treatment of neurological disorders. These methods have been developed and refined over the last decades. However, they still suffer from deteriorating electrical capabilities and the fact that they inevitably damage the tissue into which they a

Flexicurity is a union of the English words flexibility and security. The union of the two words to one common term, hints that flexibility and security does not have to be each others counterparts in order to achieve good economical development and employment. Flexicurity, as it is found in Denmark, is described as a three part model composed of active labour market politics, generous financial c

Anställningsförhållandet grundas på ett personligt förhållande och präglas av ett starkt behov av förtroende. I bestående anställningsavtal skall arbetstagaren i stort sett sätta arbetsgivarens intresse framför sitt eget. Vilken skyldighet har emellertid arbetstagare att iaktta arbetsgivarens intresse vid ingående av anställningsavtalet? Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att utreda i vilken utstrWhen entering into a contract it is important to maintain a certain grade of honesty and loyalty. Not only is it wrong to deceive a party in order to reach a beneficial agreement, it is in certain cases also contrary to good faith and fair dealing to leave a mistaken party in error. The law therefore imposes a duty of disclosure that requires a party to reveal all matters known, in its entirety, t

Uppsatsen är en studie med huvudsyfte att undersöka vilken betydelse domstolen fäster vid våld inom familjen vid bedömning av umgänge och vårdnad. Den försöker även finna svar på om och i så fall i vilken utsträckning det görs skillnad mellan fäder och mödrar som förövare. Gällande rätt och dess utveckling redovisas inom områdena vårdnad, umgänge samt riskbedömning.

It also attempts to see to what extent male and female parents as perpetrators are treated differently. Current law and its development in the areas of custody, right of access to children and risk assessment are explo

Sedan implementeringen av Infosoc-direktivet måste Sverige, genom att enskilda tillåts att kopiera för privat bruk, säkerställa att en rimlig kompensation utges till upphovsmän och närstående rättsinnehavare. Hur denna kompensation ska upptas, utges eller fördelas har lämnats till respektive medlemsstat och enbart generella regler framhålls i direktivet och dess praxis. Rätten till en rimlig kompeSince the implementation of the Infosoc-directive Sweden must, in relation to the private copying exception, secure that a fair compensation is given to the copyright and neighbouring right holders. However the directive does not contain specific rules regarding in which way the compensation shall be collected, brought out or divided; only general guidelines are given in the directive and in case

I detta arbete granskas och analyseras den utveckling av aktiekapitalet som skett under de senaste decennierna. Framställningen inleds således med en kort bakgrundsbeskrivning av aktiekapitalets historiska utveckling där ett lagstadgat aktiekapital för första gången år 1895 reglerades i den svenska aktiebolagslagen. Ursprungligen syftade reglerna om aktiekapital till att fungera som ett stabilt boIn this work, the development of share capital over the past decades is examined and analyzed.

A systematic review of radiation therapy trials in several tumour types was performed by The Swedish Council of Technology Assessment in Health Care (SBU). The procedures for evaluation of the scientific literature are described separately (Acta Oncol 2003; 42: 357-365). This synthesis of the literature on radiation therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is based on data from 4 meta-analys

Environmental manipulation experiments showed that species respond individualistically to each environmental-change variable. The greatest responses of plants were generally to nutrient, particularly nitrogen, addition. Summer warming experiments showed that woody plant responses were dominant and that mosses and lichens became less abundant. Responses to warming were controlled by moisture availa
