2006 genomfördes en reform av den svenska asylprocessen. Det tidigare systemet hade utsatts för stark kritik, och särskilt överklagandeinstansen, Utlänningsnämnden, hade blivit en symbol för en godtycklig, och samtidigt restriktiv asylpolitik. I och med reformen ersattes Utlänningsnämnden av tre Migrationsdomstolar och en Migrationsöverdomstol. Det uttryckliga målet var att öka öppenheten och rättIn 2006 a reform of the Swedish asylum process took place. The former system had been the object of strong criticism, and especially the appellate body, the Aliens Appeals Board, had become a symbol of an arbitrary, and at the same time restrictive asylum policy. In the reform the Aliens Appeals Board was replaced with three Migration Courts and one Migration Court of Appeal. The outspoken aim was

Så kan skogsägare bromsa klimatförändringarna – och samtidigt få betalt för det. Privata skogsägare kan spela en nyckelroll i Sveriges klimatarbete – men då krävs ersättning och tydligare regler. Klimatförändringarna har ökat behovet av lösningar som både minskar utsläpp och binder koldioxid. Skogen är en naturlig kolsänka – alltså ett ekosystem som lagrar koldioxid – och därför är skogsbruket i Since pre-industrial times, increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has contributed to climate change affecting all ecosystems. As a result, global and national commitments have been made to reduce emissions by enhancing the number and effectiveness of carbon sinks. To meet the national climate targets, Sweden has proposed financial compensation for forest owners who postpone harvesting. This

The construction sector is undergoing substantial growth and there are many challenges to address. One challenge is building defects, which affect the structural integrity and put the structure at risk. A common and intrusive building defect is moisture, which can slowly expand and lead to complicated defect detection. Moisture intrusion can cause many issues in the structure of the building and p

Biodiversity, and in particular plant species diversity decline is linked to landscape fragmentation and habitats loss due to land use transformations but also to decreasing dispersal vectors in the landscape. During the last 200 years the landscape has undergone dramatic changes in its structure and its habitats diversity. Among the different habitats that constitute rural landscape there are thr

This paper will investigate the conflicts that can arise during destination development following a World Heritage inscription. Previous literature mentions that conflicts arise, but focuses on a more managerial perspective, and fails to account for the characteristics of those conflicts. The aim of the paper is to account for the characteristics of the conflicts that arise, by trying to grasp how

A number of policy instruments are used in order to provide consumers healthy products produced in a proper way as regards environmental impacts. The policy instruments are mainly directed to enterprises and companies producing products. Such actors are often addressed in terms of laws or regulations and represent different actors in a production chain. Policy instruments and the way they are used

Handheld computing and mobile information systems are continuously breaking new ground, with an increased importance for business. However, there is evidence that we still have lessons to learn concerning the design of handheld information systems. Handheld information system poses challenges to the designer in the unique properties of handheld technologies and the conditions of use of handheld te

Transnational stardom, in the sense that particular star actors constitute a genuine draw for audiences in other European countries than that of the film’s origin, appears an increasingly rare thing within the continent’s cinema. In short, a transnational star system is wanting. Had it existed, more attractive films would most undoubtedly be a reality. Furthermore, with such a system in place film

The human side of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) – with focus particularly on resistance - has puzzled scholars for decades. Still, there is little discussion as regards to how the concept should be defined or understood. Often expressions of resistance, rather than its actual content, are described. What do personnel actually oppose? In this dissertation, the content, process, and context of

The European energy market has undergone a large transformation in the last 20 years. It has gone from being a market strictly controlled by the Member States and dominated by state monopolies to being a privatized market under the rules of the market economy. This process has as its main aim to create a free and unified European energy market characterized by productive competition. A number of s

This study aims to understand the circumstances needed for diffusion of the innovation Basta. By doing a case study of the establishing of FUNK in Gothenburg, I wanted to find explanations for successes and failures in the diffusion process, and see what role the goal of empowerment played in this process. I found that the innovation Basta has a high degree of relative advantage and compatibility

In the present-day world, a state is only one of a number of social actors, each of which has its own identity, functions and structure. The successful functioning and even existential survival of the state is dependent on various factors, including its capacity to face the challenges of the processes of globalisation, including new threats which emerge from the development of communication techno

Problem: Why are not existing energy efficient techniques utilized? Which aspects influence the decision? Is the decision-making-process in need of a complementary tool for energy efficiency-profitability calculating? Purpose: The primary purpose of this report is to examine the critical elements of the decisions making process concerning energy efficient investments. The secondary purpose of this

Membrane bioreactor (MBR) has been recognized as an advanced water treatment technology to remove diverse impurities from various water resources (such as wastewater, surface water, groundwater, and rainwater). In MBRs, membrane separation and biodegradation are synergized to enhance pollutant removals in order to achieve treated water of superior quality. Pressure-driven microfiltration (MF)/ultr

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to advance knowledge about the mechanisms behind, and the implications of, varying involvement in digitally enhanced employee-driven innovation (EDI) by studying how a firm integrates a web-based tool in the organization of its EDI process. Design/methodology/approach: Based on a qualitative in-depth interview study with managers and employees at one high-perf

We present a model for the concurrent formation of globular clusters (GCs) and supermassive stars (SMSs, ≳103M⊙) to address the origin of the HeCNONaMgAl abundance anomalies in GCs. GCs form in converging gas flows and accumulate low-angular momentum gas, which accretes on to protostars. This leads to an adiabatic contraction of the cluster and an increase of the stellar collision rate. A SMS can

With the development of the society and the times, traditional parametric design methods are witnessing a severe challenge due to the more and more complex physical systems. Thus, developing novel parametric analysis methods is very important for dealing with complex physical systems, refining useful parameters from numerous data, and proposing accurate prediction formulas. A spring slider system,

BackgroundEven though the importance of a facilitator during an implementation process is well described, the facilitator’s role is rarely problematized in relation to the organizational context in terms of power and legitimacy; themes which have recently been brought to the fore when studying change in health care organizations. Therefore, in this article, we present a qualitative study with the

The diesel engine is one of the most economic power sources and is therefore used in a range of technical solutions. The low fuel consumption combined with high engine performance makes it attractive for transportation vehicles. They are relatively unproblematic in terms of emissions of carbon-monoxide and hydrocarbons but, on the other hand, they are associated with high emissions of nitrogen oxi
