A popular model for social evolution in the Santa Barbara Channel region holds that, during times of resource stress, islanders would trade with mainlanders for plant foods in order to supplement island diets. Recently, western sea-purslane (Sesuvium verrucosum) has been suggested as a primary food product involved in this exchange. This report presents new caloric values for Sesuvium verrucosum a

Two observations serve as starting points for this paper. First, conventional risk assessment techniques provide sophisticated ways to identify and estimate hazards, but eschew the fact that there is no risk unless something of value is considered to be at stake. Second, what managers consider as being of value follows from how they organize their managerial practice. Based on these observations,

Friköps-, utköps- och budgivningsklausuler i aktieägaravtal är ett ämne som det idag finns undermålig kunskap och forskning om i det svenska näringslivet och associationsrätten. Friköps- och utköpsklausuler ger aktieägare möjligheter som ABL motstrider och som i bolagsordning begränsar. Denna uppsats undersöker aktieägaravtals förmåga att realisera överlåtelsebindningar som låter aktieägare begränBuy out clauses in shareholders’ agreement is a subject with defeciant knowledge and research in Swedish business and Swedish business law. Buy out clauses gives shareholders’ possibilities that neither Swedish company law or Swedish companies’ articles of associations allows. This thesis investigates the shareholders’ agreements possibilities to implement restrictions on the transferability on co

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

One of urban planning’s responsibility is to ensure children’s right to outdoor space in Swedish kindergartens is met. Legislation that regulates outdoor areas in kindergartens is broad, stating that “enough space” should be granted. However, critical voices flag the shrinking outdoor space that jeopardizes children’s right to a healthy outdoor environment. Each municipality is responsible to dete

In order for civilian shipping and aviation to be able to operate within Swedish areas of responsibility, an absolute prerequisite is that the state must maintain a well-functioning sea and air rescue service. This requires constant, thorough surface coverage, year round and around the clock with qualified helicopter resources. Until 2002 Swedish national needs, both military and civilian, were ma

There were around one million apartments built in Sweden during 1965 to 1974 as part of the so called Swedish Million Programme, almost half of them concentrated in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmoe. These building are now considered unattractive. The need of renovation is urgent in many aspects -ventilation, windows, balconies, facades and sanitary pipe replacement. The total investment cost for t

Considering the depersonalization that the bureaucratic role entails, it is interesting to analyze the bureaucratic role-play that occurs between public and private sphere from a dramaturgical perspective. In order to investigate the personal shift of bureaucrats’ attitude, I conducted participant observations and interviews at an office of a Swedish Agency. Based on critical theory and feminist c

Heavy trucks are commonly powered by combustion engines running on diesel. Since these trucks often run on highways they rarely have to perform cold starts. Diesel engines take care of their NOx emissions through a process which uses the high temperatures of the exhaust gases together with urea, sprayed upon a mixer placed inside the exhaust pipes, to chemically react with the NOx over an SCR cata

The Swedish construction industry is an example of a trade largely dominated by men. The main purpose of this study is to examine how said male dominance affects companionship among workers by analysing male homosociality and hegemonic masculinity. Based on six separate interviews with both male and female construction workers, this study explores the attributes that constitute an ideal constructi

I en teoretisk studie har användbarheten av thermosyphoner för att förbättra säkerheten och effektiviseringen av kemiska reaktorer. Thermosyphoner är en simpel form av en ”heat pipe”, ett ihåligt och slutet rör som är delvis fyllt av en fluid. Om röret värms upp till fluidens kokpunkt inleds en inre fasomvandling vilket används för att förbättra rörets värmeledningsförmåga. Tre simuleringsmodellerIn a theoretical study the use of thermosyphons to improve the safety and efficiency of chem-ical reactors have been evaluated. Thermosyphons is a simple form of a “heat pipe”, a hollow and closed tube that’s partially filled with a fluid. When the pipe is heated up to the boiling temperature of the fluid within a phase change is initiated. The phase-change is used to im-prove the thermal conducti

Syftet med uppsatsen är att fördjupa förståelsen av hur familjeföretag kan lyckas under successionsprocessen genom att illustrera en framgångsrik succession i ett familjeföretag i Sverige. För att nå syftet genomfördes en kvalitativ studie i form av semistrukturerade intervjuer. Studien har haft en socialkonstruktionistiskt och tolkande utgångspunkt. Studien är baserad på tidigare forskning om fam

Ett patent är en immateriell rättighet som medför en ensamrätt för patenthavaren att dra affärsmässig nytta av en viss uppfinning under en begränsad tidsperiod. Den som kränker patenthavarens ensamrätt gör sig skyldig till patentintrång. Vid patentintrång tillhandahåller den svenska patentlagen (1967:837) ett antal olika sanktionsmöjligheter. De primära civilrättsliga sanktionsformerna utgörs av pA patent is a kind of intellectual property right that grants the patent holder an exclusive right to profit from a certain invention for a limited time period. Anyone who violates the patent holder's exclusive right is guilty of patent infringement. In cases of patent infringement the Swedish Patent Act (patentlag 1967: 837) provides a number of different sanction options. The primary civil s

This thesis puts forward the idea that the radical other that constitutes and threatens our society is not to be found outside its limits, but that it is something inherent to our society. It proposes that the threatening other, the constitutive outside of society, is the subject 'the poor', that in its failure to partake in the labour market, fails to conform to the rules of the market, a

This paper seeks to identify indicators of why and how Ukrainian Government has failed to halt the conflict of Donbas by focusing on legislative developments between July 16 2014 - February 15, 2015. A Minimalist+politics approach has been applied, providing a theoretical framework that combines empiricy, normativity, and contextual settings to comprehend how peace processes operate depending on a

In a rapidly urbanising world, the importance of rural towns and villages is often forgotten. Many people see more opportunities for employment, social life and their children’s future in the big city, leaving smaller, rural places empty and abandoned. This process of rapid urbanisation can in the long run result in the loss of many valuable villages, along with their local community and the tradi

Genom att utnyttja generella socialpsykologiska mänskliga sårbarhetsfaktorer kan en gärningsperson manipulera en individ att lämna ifrån sig konfidentiell information. Utnyttjandet av mänsklig kontakt och förtroende i syfte att erhålla information kan företas med hjälp av informationsteknik eller genom en mer traditionell och humanistisk interaktion. Denna typ av utnyttjande benämns som social manBy utilizing general social psychological human vulnerability factors, an offender can manipulate an individual to disclose confidential information. The utilization of human contact and trust for the purpose of obtaining information can be done with the help of information technology or through traditional humanistic interaction. This type of exploitation is referred to as social engineering. The
