This essay examines the occurrence of ideas related to either competitive elitist democracy or deliberative democracy in the public debate regarding the Swedish Riksbank and interest rate policy, during the time period 2008-2013. The essay applies an ideal type analysis on a broad material of opinion pieces published in major Swedish newspapers. The ideal types used in the essay are one based on c

The problem of the perfect territorial size is an old one. It was discussed as early as in ancient Greece and picked up again by Dahl and Tufte with their book Size and Democracy. In this thesis, the subject is further developed when participation by citizens in politics is studied. The conditions for influencing the political decisions are investigated and citizen boards are chosen for studying.

Skyddet för arbetstagare mot felaktiga uppsägningar sker genom flera olika regleringar i svensk och fransk arbetsrätt. När det gäller uppsägning på grund av arbetsbrist skyddas arbetstagaren genom arbetsgivarens omplaceringsskyldighet, turordningsreglerna, rätten till återanställning samt genom kravet på att uppsägningen ska vara sakligt grundad. Det är den i princip alltid om det är fråga om arbeThere are several rules in Swedish and French labor law to protect the employee against unfair dismissal. When it comes to dismissal due to redundancy the employee is protected by the obligation on the employer to find the employee alternative work, the priority rules, the priority right to reemployment and by the requirement of a just cause. In Sweden, a dismissal due to redundancy is in principl

In Deuteronomy the triad of gēr (sojourner), yātôm (the fatherless) and ‘almānâ (widow) is frequently cited. In my essay I explore the reason for its recurrence and come to the conclusion that the author of Deuteronomy attached the group gēr with the almānâ and yātôm – two grups that were traditionally regarded as vulnerable in Ancient Near Eastern societies. My explanation to the frequent mention

Two trends can be identified within the current development assistance discourse: the pursuit of aid effectiveness, and the support for democratic development, both of which emphasize the importance of accountability. By adopting a critical approach to the ‘buzzword’ accountability, this study explores how a number of bilateral donors conceptualize and understand the notion of accountability in th

The purpose of this paper is to empirically explore two dimensions of the firm hierarchy of international market-specific linkages, using data on Swedish manufacturing firms from 1997 to 2007. First, we investigate the productivity ordering with respect to three international linkages; importing, exporting and investing abroad. Second, we explore whether differences in the productivity ordering ac

The introduction of the laparoscope was a milestone within gynecologic surgery. Despite evidence of better perioperative outcome compared to laparotomy, laparoscopy is mostly performed for less advanced surgical procedures and the uptake of laparoscopic hysterectomy has been slow. An effort to preserve the clinical benefits of laparoscopic surgery and facilitate the performance of more advanced su

Fuel cells (FCs) are promising for future energy systems, since they are energy efficient and fuel can be produced locally. When hydrogen is used as fuel, there are no emissions of greenhouse gases. In this study a two dimensional CFD (COMSOL Multiphysics) is employed to study the effect from porous material surface area ratio on reforming reaction rates and gas species distributions for an anode-

Arbetet är utfört åt skogsforskningsstationen Mógilsá som ligger strax norr om Reykjavik. Forskningen inom Mógilsá bedrivs inom delar av eller för hela Island med inriktning inom exempelvis dendrokronologi, proveniensförsök, och studier av insekter. Sedan 1900-talets början har inplantering av exotiska trädarter blivit allt vanligare och i en allt större skala. Syften med inplanteringen är bland aThis study was made in an attempt to give the forest research centre Mógilsá a produced tetratherm map and a better understanding of how topography and temperature influence the growth of two tree species. The digital tetratherm map model, covering the northern part of Iceland, was developed to investigate the correlation between tetratherm and the growth of Picea sitchensis and Larix (sukaczewii

This thesis analyses the 2005 UK presidency of the Council, and more particularly the negotiations on the future financing of the European Union. The purpose of the study is to discuss whether the holding of the presidency implies political influence for the member state. To analyse the power of the country holding the chair the thesis focuses on the presidency functions of brokering and leadershi

Parenthood isn’t easy. Every parent will at some point feel inadequate in their parenting role. Irrespective of that the child always has fundamental rights.

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Drunkningsrisk för skogen? Att mängden vatten i marken är viktig för att granen ska kunna ha så god tillväxt som möjligt är ingen nyhet. Är det för fuktigt drunknar rötterna, på grund av att de inte får en tillräckligt mycket syre. I denna studie har två markberedningsmetoder, högläggning och ingen markberedning, jämförts för att se vilket alternativ som är mestNorway spruce is a coniferous tree with many different fields of application. For an example, they are used as Christmas trees, decoration and as timber or pulpwood. The reason why many foresters in Sweden tend to choose spruce as their main species for plantation is partly because of their fast growth rate and partly because the main products are derived from the actual tree trunks. In the forest

Many vehicle manufacturers have lately introduced advance driver support in some of their automobiles. One of those new features is Adaptive Cruise Control DACCE, which extends the conventional cruise control system to control of relative speed and distance to other vehicles. In order to design an ACC controller it is suitable to have a model of driver behavior. The approach in the thesis is to us

The authors tested the hypothesis that experiencing sexual coercion and engaging in sexually coercive behavior are positively associated in a representative sample totaling almost 4,000 Swedish or Norwegian male high school students (estimated response rate 80%). In both surveys, youths who had experienced sexual coercion were approximately three times more likely to engage in sexually coercive be

Purpose: To assess the additional value of subtraction ictal single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) coregistered to MRI (SISCOM) for localization of the epileptogenic zone in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy scheduled for invasive video-EEG (VEEG) before epilepsy surgery by a descriptive study from clinical practice. Methods: Forty-nine consecutive epilepsy patients between Januar

The overall aim of this thesis was to elucidate fathers’ experience of becoming parents of a pretermborn infant as well as their experience in the years after their infant’s birth. A further aim was to describe the context of neonatal care by investigating trends in outcome during a ten-year period in the southern region of Sweden. In total twenty-one fathers were interviewed at three different ti
