In this paper, I discuss the structure of restrictive and non-restrictive relative clauses based on Swe-dish data. The proposed analysis suggests that the non-restrictive relative clauses is an adjunct ad-joined to DP and that the restrictive relative clause is an argument of D, merged in Spec-DP. In my analysis, I assume a non-valued definiteness feature marked EPP in D that must be matched by a
Do asylum seekers hold human rights or are human rights bound to citizenship? That is the main underlying question that this essay is trying to answer. The chosen material is an investigation made by the Swedish government about the situation surrounding asylum seekers in Sweden. The analysis consists of the politics around migration, different parts of an asylum seeker’s life and what kind of dev

The purpose of the analysis is to delineate Russian and American understandings of an eventual military intervention in Syria, as well as depicting which images of the self and the enemy that are mediated through both countries' rhetoric.

Min undersökning studerar arméns narrativ om den amerikanska interventionen och arméns betydelse för sin omvärld.
Området geografiska informationssystem (GIS) är väldigt omfattande och byggs upp av årtionden av djupgående forskning. Dock kvarstår flera frågor relativt outforskade och obesvarade. En sådan fråga är hur användande av GIS ser ut inom offentliga organisationer (så som Polisen, Räddningstjänsten och Ambulansverksamheten). I vår studie söker vi svar på vilken typ av GIS som bäst lämpas för dessa org
Sedan EU-direktivet om rätt till familjeåterförening införlivades i svensk rätt har makar rätt till familjeåterförening i Sverige. Denna rättighet är dock inte absolut, utan bortfaller om äktenskapet med lagtextens ord ingåtts uteslutande för att den ena maken ska få rätt till uppehållstillstånd (s.k. skenäktenskap). Till stöd för bedömningen av vad som är ett skenäktenskap finns kriterier i en EUSince the incorporation in Swedish law of the EU directive on family reunification, spouses have a right to family reunification. This right, however, is subject to limitations, e.g. for marriages which were contracted for the sole purpose of enabling the person concerned to obtain a residence permit (“marriages of convenience”). Criteria in aid of assessing which marriages are marriages of conven
Även om en domstol har domsrätt över ett mål så kan det finnas skäl som gör att domstolen avstår från att utöva sin domsrätt. Vilka skäl som gör att en domstol avstår sin domsrätt är olika från rättssystem till rättssystem. En domstol kan avstå sin domsrätt eftersom den anser att målet är alltför orelaterat till domstolen eller eftersom det redan finns ett liknande mål som är pågående hos en annanEven if a court has jurisdiction over a case there might be some situation when that court will decline to exercise this jurisdiction. The reasons for declining jurisdiction will be different in different legal systems. A court might decline jurisdiction because it deems the case to be to inconvenient for the parties or the court or it might decline jurisdiction because the case is already pending
During the second world war between one-half to two million Roma people were killed. The Roma and Sinti ethnic groups had to wait until 1982 before West Germany would recognize them as victims of the Nazi policy of extermination during the war. This has resulted in that the suffering of the Roma does not form a part of the common knowledge today. This essay conveys a discourse analysis, with the p

There has been much work on classification of malaria infected blood; in resent time, a method using LED-based microscopy has been developed with the goal of reducing time and cost. The education level needed to make such decisions is also reduced using this microscope. This is mainly done to help the developing countries in the fight against malaria and develop these countries competence in the f
This essay is based on the concept of Islamophobia and its significance. Islamophobia is a modern and a relatively new term that is defined in the hatred and prejudice against Islam and Muslims. In this essay it is possible to follow the arguments that can be seen as a sign that Muslims and those considered being Muslims face discrimination in the Swedish society. The fact that Muslims have a low
The purpose of this study is to analyze if and how political elites manipulate identities for their own personal gain. We have chosen to examine how this manifests in the American terror legislation and specifically if identities are expressed in it. The legislation of choice in this study is the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) that defines terrorist activities. Using text analysis, we aim t
The mechanomyogram (MMG) is a mechanical oscillations observable on the surface of the skin as a muscle contracts. Measurement of the MMG utilizing contact sensors with a weight greater than 6 g has proved to interfere with the measurement. Use of optical displacement sensors without direct contact to the skin would remove this deficiency. A Michelson interferometer, an intensity shift set-up and
The collapse of the Soviet Union saw a shift in the way the international community perceived humanitarian interventions and the principles of sovereignty. With the world no longer divided along ideological lines, the United Nations found itself drawn into conflicts of a different nature, which resulted in the development of a new ‘norm’ of intervention, which saw human rights being promoted to th
This thesis analyzes, from a media framing perspective, the American main stream media's framing of the Goldstone Report. Media have played a significant roll in influencing both the public and policymakers, particularly when it comes to foreign issues where the media often is the primary source of information. The effect media has on U.S. foreign policy is a known fact, though to which extent

This study discusses the Chinese state’s use of soft power in the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) and the policy paper China’s Peaceful Development. The theory of soft power is mainly about how to make a state to want the same outcomes or goals rather by attracting this state to do so, than using force or economic sanctions. My aim was to understand how China attracts collaborations in A
