There are many empirical studies that reject the forecasting power of the uncovered interest rate parity condition. This might be due to different reasons, of which one often stated is the existence of a risk premium. In this paper three versions of the conventional UIP model are tested in order to investigate which one that generates the best predictions on the future spot rate. One model without

The article documents the case of South Africa's struggle to reconcile racially based poverty, a legacy of apartheid, and attempts to conserve the country's unique and important biodiversity. We present an analysis of KwaDapha, a small village in the iSimangaliso Wetland Park in northern KwaZulu-Natal, a protected area and UNESCO World Heritage Site, in terms of the capability approach. Despite So

Systemisk skleros, SSc, är en ovanlig reumatologisk sjukdom där immunologisk aktivering leder till kärlskada och fibros i hud och inre organ. Hälften av patienterna avlider av komplikationer från hjärta eller lungor, ofta fibros i lungor eller pulmonell arteriell hypertension (PAH). Projekten rör kartläggning av tidiga mekanismer kring patogenes och biomarkörer för tidig diagnos och monitorering aSystemic sclerosis, SSc, is a rare rheumatologic disease where immun activation leads to vascular damage and fibrosis in skin and internal organs. Half of the population will die from complications from heart or lungs, mostly lung fibrosis or pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Our projects aim at early pathogenic mechanisms and biomarkers for early diagnosis and to monitor the disease and the

The article describes and analyses the legal framework concerning children’s participation in research in Sweden. Research on children is one way to improve children’s living conditions. For example, there is a need for knowledge about children’s and young people’s situation at home, at school, in community care and in correctional facilities. It is inevitable that there arise both ethical and leg

Uppsatsens syfte har varit att kritiskt granska den svenska debatten kring DNA-analys för asylsökande barns rätt till familjeåterförening i Sverige och därmed se ifall principen om barnets bästa, definierat i svenska rättsakter, efterföljs. Genom den vägledande domen från Migrationsöverdomstolen den 18 januari 2012 fastslogs att DNA-analys kan användas för att styrka biologiskt släktskap med förälThe aim of this thesis has been to do a critical review on the Swedish debate concerning the use of DNA-tests to secure the rights of asylum-seeking children to be reunited with their families and if the principle of the best interests of the child is followed. The 18th of January 2012, in a precedent ruling, the Swedish Migration Court of Appeal concluded that DNA-test could be used to prove biol

Fördrag om Principer för Staternas Verksamhet vid Utforskning och Användning av Yttre Rymden, inklusive Månen och andra Himmelska Kroppar, infördes 1964. Sedan 1985 har inget nytt rymdtraktat introducerats. Rymden har sedan dess förändrats. På grund av detta, finns det många problem i rymden idag som inte förutsågs vid introduktionen av rymdtraktaten. Rymdskrot är ett av problemen som inte förutsåThe Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies (Outer Space Treaty) was introduced in 1967. Although the area of space has widely changed since then, no new binding space treaties have been introduced since 1984. Consequently, the current legislation is not adapted to the many of the current space

Literature on war and the environment has examined a wide range of militarized landscapes, but massive fortification systems such as the Maginot or Siegfried lines, which are symbols of a military trend in vogue during the interwar period, have largely been ignored. These military walls interwove natural and national values and constituted massive landscape interventions, aimed at reinforcing poli

Surrogacy is prohibited in many European states. However, such a ban is not global. This can create problems when individuals from states where surrogacy is prohibited travel to other states where it is allowed and become legally recognised parents of children born through surrogacy in the latter states. The implications of cross-border surrogacy come into reality when the intended parents return

Sepsis (när en infektion blir livshotande) är en bortglömd folksjukdom som drabbar lika många som cancer och har högre dödlighet än hjärtinfarkt och är mycket dyrt. Sepsis är ett komplext syndrom och borde precis som cancer inte klassas som en sjukdom utan många olika beroende på vilken bakterie som orsakar infektionen, vilket organ infektionen först drabbar och kanske viktigast av allt i vilket iSepsis (when an infection becomes life threatening) is a neglected public health problem affecting as many as cancer, with a higher mortality rate than myocardial infarction and is very expensive. Sepsis is a complex syndrome, akin cancer and should not be classified as a single disease, rather many different depending on 1. the bacteria causing the infection, 2. Organ focus of the infection, and

The objective of this study is to increase the knowledge regarding school principals’work situations by examining the associations between various factors and the school principals’assessments of their ability or wish to work until 65 years of age or longer. The 1356 participatingschool principals in this study were aged between 50 and 64 years of age. Individual and workfactors were evaluated in

Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus complex (SBSEC) is a common cause of infective endocarditis (IE). For IE-pathogens, the capacity to activate and aggregate platelets is believed to be an important virulence mechanism. While the interactions between bacteria and platelets have been described in detail for many Gram-positive pathogens, little research has been carried out with SBSEC in this
