This thesis seeks to determine whether it is possible to strike a regulatory balance between satisfying the interests derived from individuals' right to privacy and states' defence of national security. However, the goal of this work is not to conduct an abstract analysis of the interrelations of these, sometimes conflicting, interests but to find practical solutions to a present issue, th
Den globala uppvärmningen gör sig ständigt påmind genom extremväder och naturkatastrofer. Vid klimatkonferensen COP21 år 2015 undertecknade i stort sett alla världens länder Parisavtalet med målet att temperaturökningen ska begränsas. För att uppnå Parisavtalets mål ligger en stor del i att länder behöver minska sina utsläpp av växthusgaser. Sverige har minskat sina utsläpp med 35 procent sedan 19Global warming is constantly reminding us of its presence through extreme weather and natural disasters. At the COP21 climate conference in 2015, almost every country in the world signed the Paris Agreement with the aim of limiting temperature increase. The countries need to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions to achieve this. Since 1990, Sweden has reduced its emissions by 35 percent, and in 20
Bakgrund: Några av de viktigaste aspekterna att ta hänsyn till i vår nutid är att konsumera hållbart och minska mängden avfall vi efterlämnar. En del enskilda individer har börjat ta aktivt ansvar för sin egna miljöpåverkan och sociala medier har visat sig vara ett viktigt verktyg i att engagera sig i hållbarhet. Detta för att nå ut till andra, engagera dem, sprida medvetenhet och kommunicera medBackground: Some of the most important aspects to take into account in our present time are to consume sustainably and reduce the amount of waste we leave behind. Some individuals have begun to take active responsibility for their own environmental impact and social media has proved to be an important tool in engaging in sustainability to reach out to others and engage them, spread awareness and
Denna uppsats belyser problematiken med överprövningar som föranleder upphandlande myndigheter att frångå det obligatoriska annonseringskravet genom att direktupphandla samhällsåtaganden på grund av synnerlig brådska. Att en upphandlande myndighet blivit tvungen att direktupphandla ett samhällsåtagande, i syfte att utföra en obligatorisk skyldighet, för att det uppstått brådska på grund av överpröThis thesis highlights the problem of review procedures that lead contracting authorities to waive the mandatory publication of a contract notice by directly procuring public commitments due to extreme urgency. The fact that a contracting authority has been forced to directly procure a public commitment, in order to perform a mandatory duty, in the event of urgency due to a review procedure will n
Significant advancements in audio transport, encoding, and processing power in embedded systems constitute the foundation of today’s speakers. Transitioning the digitalized audio data transmission to Audio over IP (AoIP) has opened the potential to transmit audio with the same network flexibility as other services using packet-based networks, such as voice over IP or video over IP.

Livstids fängelse kunde innan 2006 endast tidsbestämmas genom det s.k. nådeinstitutet. Genom införandet av lag (2006:45) om omvandling av fängelse på livstid utökades möjligheten för livstidsfångar att få sitt straff tidsbestämt. Syftet med införande av lagen var att förbättra förutsebarheten, inte bara för de intagna utan även för de dömdas anhöriga och KRV vid dess arbete med de intagna. I motiBefore 2006, the only way life sentences could be converted was through governmental clemency. The adoption of the 2006 Conversion of Life Imprisonment Act (2006:45) (OmvL), however, increased the possibilities for prisoners serving life in prison to have their sentences commuted to a set number of years. The purpose of the adoption was to improve legal predictability for inmates, their relatives,
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic cancer presents as advanced disease in >80% of patients; yet, appropriate ages to consider prevention and early detection strategies are poorly defined. We investigated age-specific associations and attributable risks of pancreatic cancer for established modifiable and non-modifiable risk factors.PATIENTS AND METHODS: We included 167 483 participants from two prospective US
The purpose of this essay is to shed light upon the ecumenical work that has been done between the Church of Sweden and the Mission Covenant Church of Sweden. The recent years of work have led to a recommendation for a certain degree of fellowship to be established between those churches. This proposal as well as other documents are analysed in the essay from an ecclesio-logical point of view, to
With a worldwide increase in disasters, the effects of climate change are already being felt, and it is the urban poor in developing countries who are most at risk. There is an urgent need to better understand the factors that determine people's capacity to cope with and adapt to adverse climate conditions. This paper examines the influence of formal education in determining the adaptive capacity
Climate change and disasters pose a serious risk to sustainable development. In the South local coping strategies are an important element of adaptation to climate and disaster risk. Such strategies have arisen because of the limited assistance provided by urban actors and associated social security and governance systems. In contrast, in the North local coping strategies are comparatively poorly
Syftet med denna uppsats är att precisera hävningsgrunderna och hävningens rättsverkningar enligt standardavtalen AB 04 och ABT 06. För att kunna besvara de ställda frågorna utgår arbetet från sådan rättsdogmatisk teori och metod som kan sägas utgöra traditionell rättsvetenskap. För kommersiella entreprenadavtal saknas direkt tillämpliga obligationsrättsliga lagregler. Detta innebär att de förhandThe purpose of this study is to clarify the grounds for termination, and the legal consequences of termination, according to the standard agreement system constituted by AB 04 and ABT 06. The study is based on such theory and method which represents traditional jurisprudence. In Sweden commercial construction contracts are not subject to any specific legislative regulation.

I en komparativ studie undersöktes regleringen av flera former av eutanasi (dödshjälp) och assisterat självmord i Sverige, Nederländerna, Schweiz och Italien. Även Europadomstolens praxis, samt attityder till och förekomst av eutanasi behandlades och resultaten sammanställdes.

Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka huruvida ett nationalekonomiskt perspektiv, genom kostnads-intäktsanalys, kan bidra till att bredda diskussionen om Kriminalvården och dess effektiviseringsarbete. De mått som idag används för att beskriva fångvårdens effektivitet utgörs av bl.a. återfallsbrottslighet, påbörjade samt avslutade behandlingsprogram och antalet rymningar från anstalt. Ingen e

This paper introduces the concept of 'dynamic capability' (DC) in relation to disaster management - in particular to disaster management exercises (DME). Firstly this paper discusses changes and challenges in DME and the concept of dynamic capabilities as one potential approach dealing with the existing challenges in DME. Thereafter it outlines basic contents of developing DC in DME. The paper con
Training and exercises programmes are not independent activities, forming part of a larger, risk-based, process of disaster management preparedness. In order to have an impact on an individual's skills knowledge or behaviours, or to influence organizational learning or procedures, the programmes needs a cyclic and holistic approach. It should focus on clearly identified outcomes that are designed
