The objective of this work was both to examine the application of the model, but also to produce a process by which the model might be applied – highlighting challenge
Konflikten i den Syriska Arabiska Republiken började för mer än tio år sedan och ingen lösning är i sikte. Konflikten anses vara den mest dokumenterade konflikten någonsin. Trots att konflikten har pågått under en lång tid saknas det straffrättsligt ansvar för de begångna brotten. Det har gjorts försök, att genom användandet av international straffrätt hänvisa konflikten till den Internationella BThe conflict in the Syrian Arab Republic is ongoing since more than ten years, and there is no end in sight. The conflict is deemed to be the most documented conflict of all time. Despite the longevity of the conflict, there has been a lack of criminal accountability for the crimes committed. The international community has through the use of international criminal law attempted to refer the confl
The aim of this study is to empirically investigate the impact of credit ratings on European firms’ capital structure decisions based on the premise of Darren Kisgen’s Credit Ratings–Capital Structure (CR-CS) hypothesis: that firms face discrete costs (benefits) associated with differences in credit rating levels. This project's empirical investigations are based on historical data from Stand
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Frågan om jordens ålder fick sitt svar först vid 1900-talets början, då upptäckten gjordes att uran sönderfaller till bly med bestämd hastighet. Genom att mäta blyisotoper i uranhaltiga mineral kunde man räkna baklänges och se hur lång tid som krävts för att den uppmätta mängden bly skulle bildas. Samma typ av beräkningar gjorda på mineralet zirkon (ZrSiO2) är i
Popular Science Summary Konsten att kunna ta bort ett syre Alla celler har DNA, som måste repareras och kopieras för att livet ska fortgå. För att kunna göra detta måste det finnas byggstenar. En av alla processer som ser till att alla delar finns i rätt mängd innefattar bara ett protein. Ett protein som får instruktioner från många håll för att gå igenom en komplicerad process som tillverkar dessThe protein ribonucleotide reductase catalyses the de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs) from ribonucleotides (NTPs), using radical chemistry. It is under strict allosteric regulation, partly from the dNTPs it synthesises that regulate what substrate should be synthesised, but also from dATP/ATP, which regulates overall activity. It is a protein that is found in almost every living org
Under 1900-talets första kvartal arbetade lagstiftaren med att införa nya och revidera gamla lagar på familjerättens område. Många av lagarna hade sett mycket lite förändring sedan deras införande i och med 1734 års lag. År 1915 förändrade man begreppet trolovning och dess innebörd blev mycket mer vidsträckt än vad det tidigare hade varit. Det blev nu ett helt formlöst avtal som ansågs ingånget såDuring the first quarter of the 20th century, the legislator worked to introduce new laws and revise old ones concerning family law, many of which had seen very little change since their introduction in the law of 1734. In 1915, the concept of betrothal changed and its meaning became much more extensive than it used to be. It was now a completely formless agreement that was concluded as soon as th
Denna uppsats tar avstamp i det mediala tumultet som briserade under sommaren 2018 med anledning av låten "Knulla Barn", skriven och framförd av komikern Anton Magnussons fiktiva, satiriska humorkaraktär "Mr Cool". Denna låt föranledde en debatt om huruvida existensen av låtar om att våldta barn ska få existera eller inte. Det är mot bakgrund av denna debatt som jag bestämde miThis essay starts off with a report the medial commotion that burst during the summer of 2018. The commotion happened as a consequence of the song "Knulla Barn" , written and performed by the comedian Anton Magnusson's fictive, satirical comedy character "Mr Cool". This song caused a debate about whether songs about raping children should exist or not. It is because of this

The working life have changed due to higher demands, increased digitization and individualization. Therefore the purpose of this study was to investigate employees perceptions of the following concepts related to the new working life and potential correlational relationships amongst these constructs: Negative work life interference (negative WHI), Technology-assisted supplemental work (TASW), Job
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 50,000 SNP-trait associations. Most of these SNPs or genetic variants map to noncoding regions, known as or gene desserts. This makes it challenging to describe the mechanism by which the variant confers susceptibility to the trait. Increasingly, there is an interest in characterization and interpretation of the effect of non-coding
Haematopoietic stem cells are the source of all blood components including T-cells. When the T-cell programme is initiated in these cells, the expression of T-cell associated genes such as TCF7 is up-regulated, while genes opposing this fate are turned off. Subsequently, epigenetic marks on the gene BCL11B and its regulatory elements, disabling the expression of the gene, are removed and the trans
