Background: Soils contain the largest stock of organic carbon (C) in terrestrial ecosystems and changes in soil C stocks may significantly affect atmospheric CO2. A significant part of soil C is present in cultivated soils that occupy about 35 % of the global land surface. Agricultural intensification has led to practices that may decrease soil organic carbon (SOC), and agricultural management has
Due diligence is a quite old concept. Already in the end of the 19th century, it was discussed in matters concerning neutrality. Since then, the concept of due diligence has extended to other areas of law. The fields of international law under examination in this thesis are international environmental law, the protection of the marine environment, diplomatic law, the treatment of aliens and the se
The Treaty provisions regulating the free movement of goods are articles 28 to 31 EEC (former articles 30 to 36). Article 28 prohibits Member States from discriminating, that is, favouring or in any other way putting its domestic products at an advantage against imported products unless the Member State can find just cause under article 30 (former article 36) for its practices. For a national meas
Utifrån rättsdogmatisk metod har uppsatsen formulerat vilka de rättsliga definitionerna av nödvärnsrätten och envarsgripande är, problematiserat vilka problem som kan uppstå och var gränserna går. Jag har vidare tittat på samhällsstrukturers uppkomst, härledningar och definitioner. Även vad som är önskvärt och vad konsekvenserna blir när de inte överensstämmer med medborgares allmänna rättsmedvetaBased on legal-judicial methodology, the essay has formulated what the legal definitions of the right of self-defense and citizen’s arrest are, problematized which problems that can arise and where the lines are drawn. I have looked at what is desirable and what the consequences may be when they do not comply with the general publics sense of justice. I have especially looked at the possible emerg
The recent decades have been characterised by a trend where the public sector's been inspired by several methods and strategies from the private sector. The public library is in this case no exception. In this context there are different perspectives on whether or not this will lead to a dramatic change of the role and values of the traditional public library. The aim of this master's thes
Skådespelaryrket kräver mycket av en människa både intellektuellt, färdighetsmässigt och fysiskt. Det förväntas också ofta av en skådespelare att vara musikalisk. Musikalitet kan yttra sig på olika sätt. I skådespelarsammanhang vill jag påstå att musikalitet kan finnas i allt från texthantering till hur man rör sin kropp. Jag är rytmikpedagog, men har också arbetat som skådespelare. Syftet med det
Art and Music Schools (kulturskolor) are present in about 97% of Sweden’s municipalities, reaching over 400.000 children and adolescents both in activities outside of and in collaboration with compulsory schools. A national policy has never been established for Art and Music Schools, possibly owing to the fact that they are not considered part of the Swedish education system, but instead stem from
Languages borrow words when there is a need for it, all languages contain loanwords, and no part of the lexicon is entirely “loan-proof”. These are statements about lexical borrowing that are typically found in linguistic textbooks (Hock and Joseph 1996). Further, we know that that there are large discrepancies in the borrowability of different lexical concepts, where core vocabulary domains (sens
Ectomycorrhizae is a mutualistic association between roots of woody plants and a diverse range of soil fungi. The fungi exchange soil derived mineral nutrients for photosynthetic sugars from the host plant. The mycorrhizal symbioses are commonly found in all forest ecosystems and have a major ecological and economical importance. I have used comparative genomics, DNA microarrays and computational

The aim of this thesis was to quantify the effects of this invasive herbivore on aquatic plants in natural wetlands since previous research h
Popular Abstract in Swedish Den fysiska planeringen innebär interaktion mellan aktörer inom skilda samhällssfärer där parter med skilda sociala positioner, resurser, perspektiv och värderingar möts. Aktörernas bilder av vilka effekter ett givet planförslag medför och vilka effekter som ska betraktas som de mest centrala varierar regelmässigt. Mellan de berörda parterna är det därför inte ovanligt Since planning in connection with new building projects frequently generates controversy, it can be seen as a typical form of contentious politics. The aim of this dissertation is to analyze siting controversies, their origin, development and termination, in efforts to explore the problem of legitimacy in planning processes of this sort. The research approach employed is that of a multiple case s
Popular AbstractDen nya världsordningen som Castells kallar för nätverksamhälle skapar en konflikt mellan globalisering och identitet. I detta avseende blir frågan om identitet och etniska gränser, i Barths mening, ett centralt tema för att förstå samhällsförändringar. Globaliseringsprocessen håller på att skapa en försvagning av det civila samhället och med detta försvagas också förhållandena melThe new world order, that Castells denominates network society, generates a conflict between the globalisation and identity. In this sense the questions of identity and ethnic boundaries,in Barth’s meaning, emerge as a central subject to understanding societal changes. Globalisation is causing a weakening of the civil society, the relationship between the nation state and the people is also debili
Context. Elements heavier than iron are produced through neutron-capture processes in the different phases of stellar evolution. Asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars are believed to be mainly responsible for elements that form through the slow neutron-capture process, while the elements created in the rapid neutron-capture process have production sites that are less understood. Knowledge of abundan
In this paper I study how 1500 returned Swedish-Americans acted after their return to a mainly rural area of southern Sweden. The rural society in which the returnees grew up before immigrating to America was still largely a self-sustaining society albeit with a slowly expanding market economy. Most of the returnees came from a poorer background but quite a few of them experienced upward social mo
Popular Abstract in English The cell is the basic unit in all organisms. The molecular machinery in cells converts the energy in sunlight or food into a form of energy that the cell can use for physiological processes in the organism. In humans, this molecular machinery is located in the mitochondria; therefore they are often called the power plants of the cell. The molecular machines are actuallyNADH:quinone oxidoreductase, or complex I, is a large membrane bound enzyme in the respiratory chain of living organisms, that has evolved from the combination of smaller functional building blocks. The enzyme has a conserved core structure, comprising 14 protein subunits: Seven subunits protrude from the membrane and contain a flavin and eight iron-sulfur clusters. The remaining seven subunits in
I den rättspolitiska debatten pekar vissa åklagare på ett växande problem – att misstänkta utnyttjar rätten till tystnad genom att framföra sin berättelse först under huvudförhandlingen då de fått ta del av all bevisning. Detta sägs leda till felaktiga frikännande domar på grund av omedelbarhetsprincipen. I denna kontext har förslag om att införa en variant av Danmarks grundlagsförhör och deras beIn the ongoing legal debates, some prosecutors highlight a growing problem – that suspects seem to be exploiting the right to silence by holding back their statements until the main hearing after they've seen all the evidence. They argue that this tactic leads to wrongful acquittals due to the principle of immediateness. In this context, proposals to introduce a variant of Denmark's consti
När domstolar ska tolka ett avtal och ett tolkningsalternativ inte kan väljas utifrån subjektiv- och objektiv tolkning finns det generella tolkningsregler el-ler prioritetsregler att tillämpa för att fastställa avtalsinnehållet. Huvudsakli-gen finns det två sådana som kan tillämpas, oklarhetsregeln och minimumre-geln. Oklarhetsregeln innebär att avtalet tolkas mot den som bär ansvaret för oklarhetWhen courts fail to choose an appropriate interpretation of a contract based on subjective and objective methods of interpretation, there are general rules of interpretation or priority which can be applied to determine a satisfactory meaning of the contract. Essentially, there are two such rules available. Ac-cording to the contra proferentem rule, the contract or clause is to be inter-preted aga
Sammanfattning Det civilrättsliga förbudet mot etnisk diskriminering i arbetslivet som har funnits sedan 1994 har resulterat i få fällande domar och har i tidigare forskning beskrivits som ineffektivt. Jag har i denna uppsats jämfört tillämpningen av diskrimineringsförbudet i arbetslivet med andra områden för att undersöka om det finns faktorer som påverkar effektiviteten inom arbetslivsområdet. Summary In 1994, Sweden passed a law prohibiting discrimination in work life on the basis of ethnicity. This Discrimination Act has led to few convictions and has been described by scholars as inefficient. This thesis analyses the courts’ enforcement of the prohibition of discrimination in working life compared to its enforcement in other areas of society. Critical Race Theory is used to problem
Individualization of Children: A Critical Discourse Study of Childrens' Competence in Public Texts on Social Care of Children The aim of this study is to critically examine and discuss overarching notions and discourses on children and individualization, with a starting point in public texts within the field of social work with children. The empirical material has been two SOU-reports (“Swedi
Det huvudsakliga syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om ett fullgott juridiskt ramverk i syfte att skydda den arktiska regionen redan är etablerat, eller om ytterligare juridiska instrument behöver tillkomma för att så ska vara fallet. Frågan diskuteras med bakgrund av det faktum att den arktiska isen smälter i en hög takt, och att framtiden för regionen sannolikt kommer att se väldigt annorThe main purpose of this thesis is to examine whether or not the legal framework to govern the Arctic can be said to be in place already, or if additional judicial measures need to be taken, given the future that awaits the region as a result of the ongoing rapid ice melt. For many decades, or even centuries, it was the common perception that the Arctic would remain permanently ice-covered, and be
