In Sweden, the tramway was introduced in the late 19th century as horse tramways. Entrepreneurs around the country saw advantages of the new mean of transport which, due to low frictional resistance could transport a large amount of passengers with low traction force. In the beginning of the 20th century the horses were replaced by electric motors and the tramway spread to more cities. The entry o

We wanted to examine children's views on families and traditions surrounding family formation. Our main questions were; What are children's views on the concept "family" and how does this compare to the different definitions of family? How traditional or modern are children in comparison with historical and present views? and What are the effects of their own experiences, and val
I Sverige finns ingen författningsreglerad minimilön eller möjlighet att göra kollektivavtal allmängiltiga. Istället är det arbetsmarknadens parter som tillsammans förhandlar fram kollektivavtalets innehåll om löner och andra anställningsvillkor. Den svenska arbetsrätten har en tradition av långtgående fackligt inflytande och avsaknad av statlig inblandning. Staten har uttryckt att författningsregIn Sweden, there is an absence of a minimum wage legislation. The terms and conditions for most workers is constituted in the collective agreement, made by the parties of the Swedish labour market. The government has expressed itself unable to legislate in the matter as it would mean a violation to the “Swedish labour model”, keeping its neutral policy intact. The collective agreement has a very s
The purpose of my thesis is to examine if the financial crisis 2008-2009 effects economic gender equality in Sweden during (2008-2009) and after (2010-2015) the crisis and if so, how. The purpose is also to analyse if the outcomes are consistent with Gary S. Becker´s theoretical framework the taste discrimination model and the division of labour model. I define economic gender equality by using th
Införandet av en så kallad samtyckeslag har varit kraftigt omdebatterat i över två decenniers tid. Den 1 juli 2018 infördes en våldtäktsbestämmelse som baseras på frivillighet. I och med detta utvidgades våldtäktsbestämmelsen på så sätt att det inte längre fordras tvång eller utnyttjande av en särskilt utsatt situation för att straffansvar ska aktualiseras. Syftet med den nya våldtäktsbe-stämmelseThe adoption of a so-called consent-based rape law has been heavily debated for over two decades. On July 1st, 2018 a rape clause based on voluntarism was introduced. As a result, the rape regulation was extended in such a way that it no longer requires force, or exploitation of a particular vulnerable situa-tion, for criminal liability to occur. The purpose of the new rape regulation is to protec
Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka hur svensk rätt reglerar envarsgripande. Envarsgripande innebär, enkelt uttryckt, rätten för varje individ att, under vissa förutsättningar, gripa en annan person. Detta är något som samhället, enligt den svenska lagstiftaren, principiellt sett bör uppmuntra. Samtidigt bör kommas ihåg att brottsbekämpning främst är statens uppgift och straffprocessuella tvåThe purpose of this paper is to examine how Swedish law regulates citizen’s arrest. Put simply, Citizen’s arrest means the right for every individual to, under certain conditions, apprehend another person. According to the Swedish legislator this is something that society in principle should encourage. However, one should keep in mind that law enforcement is primarily a task for the state. Furthe
In this project I have created a practical, decorative and educational system of HDPE tiles and connections as a material for walls and floors in climate-smart housings. In doing so, I want to send a message about changing the perception of plastic as a disposable material and minimize the amount of plastic that ends up in the wrong places. To make the message credible, I analysed politics, arts
The fight about the syringe - a discourse analysis of the needle exchange debate The debate about needle exchange had been going on for twenty years in Sweden when the Act (2006:323) on the exchange of needles and syringes was introduced in 2006. But still the syringe exchange program is only implemented in Skåne. The purpose of this study was to, with a social constructionist and discourse analy
En rättelse på eget initiativ innebär att den enskilde begär ändring av en tidigare lämnad uppgift till Skatteverket. Dessa rättelser medför både ansvarsfrihet från skattetillägg och från åtal för skattebrott. Skatteverket får genom självrättelser kännedom om uppgifter som de troligtvis aldrig hade fått ta del av annars. Institutet har fått ökad uppmärksamhet de senaste åren då allt fler svenskar A correction on ones own initiative, so called ”own-initiative corrections” means that an individual submit changes to previously submitted information to the Swedish Tax Agency. These corrections mean that the individual will avoid both tax penalties and being charged of taxation fraud. Through “own-initiative corrections” the Tax Agency receives information from tax payers that they otherwise we
The concept of motivation is frequently used in the field of social work and is often understood as both a feeling, an internal experience, as well as something social workers do with their clients. But with a social constructive perspective we will soon come to realize that the concept of motivation contains several layers of underlying discourse. The aim of this study was therefore to explore ho
This research confirms previous studies stating that in transition periods people are more likely to change their product preferences and use consumption as a tool to support the new role, as well as to keep and construct stable and harmonious identity. This study contributes to the identity domain of CCT by identifying the changing relationship to possessions in this specific transition and the s
Problem statement: Consumption of bottled water has increased considerably the last decade. Transportation of bottles and exploration of natural wells, effect the environment negatively. By developing a product that produces pure and safe drinking water right on the spot, would both save money for the customer and spare the environment. Purpose: The primary target goal has been to come up with
BACKGROUND: Chronic subdural hematoma (cSDH) is one of the most common conditions encountered in neurosurgical practice. Recurrence, observed in 5-30% of patients, is a major clinical problem. The temperature of the irrigation fluid used during evacuation of the hematoma might theoretically influence recurrence rates since irrigation fluid at body temperature (37oC) may beneficially influence coag

Ltd., to be abbreviated Cavefors below, when no confusion between the person and the company is likely to exist) was a Swedish publishing company, active between 1959 and 1982. During this period this company published about 620 books in several genres and with varying topical approaches. In
This thesis focuses on the languages of thought of multilingual students writing in English, a non-native language. The study examines which languages are used as languages of thought and what functions these languages serve for year-9 students (age 15-16) in a Swedish high school while writing an essay in English under exam-like conditions. The study sheds detailed light on individual differences
