The aim of the study is thus to analyze the discourse around women’s participation and agency on a global and nati

We have chosen to focus on how women who have been exposed to domestic violence, present themselves and the perpetrator in mass media. We are also interested of studying how these women present the consequences of the violence in mass media. The analysis is accomplished by qualitative content analys
The complexity and importance of the eyes of a rather simple organism, the bee, is apparent when looking at the adaptation to their environment. The so called compound eyes consists of multiple facets, each having their own point of view and combined results in a larger image. For being able to study the magnificent eyes on a bee's head, there have been in recent studies an increase by X-ray t

Small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) are a complex solution for Saskatchewan’s energy transition from fossil fuels to low-carbon sources. As Saskatchewan predominantly relies on fossil fuels for its electricity needs, the consideration of SMRs by SaskPower is in hopes of decreasing carbon emissions and maintaining energy security. SMRs offer several advantages, including modularity, grid stabilit
Mexico City’s water system is not sustainable. There is an unfair inequality gap in the quantity and quality of water access for its residents. Moreover, the groundwater aquifers in the city are being over-exploited and polluted. This has resulted in the sinking of the city, damage to the ecosystems, and the reduction of water access to Mexico City’s residents. As the policies are a direct instrum
Soil as a fundamental, conditionally renewable natural resource is increasingly under threat from unsustainable farming practices in a changing environment. In Hungary, expansive areas of land are susceptible to soil degradation, while only a small percentage of farmers currently applies soil conservation practices (SCPs). Degraded soils have an impact on food production, climate adaptation, clima
Objectives: Romania joined to European Union (EU) in 2007. Consequently, the number of EU citizens of Roma descent increased in Sweden as the movement of freedom was granted.

In recent years, the drawbacks of parallel systems in Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) have been acknowledged in professional and academic communities, where the need for integration of the two fields in connection to development has been stressed. In this regard, the concept of resilience as an antithesis of risks has also been considered. In this study, a scoping
Meeting international climate goals require a major reallocation of global investment portfolios. However, in 2016, 74%. of all assets under management were still socially and environmentally unchecked. Research has started to address how finance can support the low-carbon transition, but little is known about how the financial sector itself perceives this transition. This thesis seeks to 1) ident
Entreprenader löper stor risk att utsättas för hinder som medför att den avta-lade kontraktstiden inte kan hållas. Det kan exempelvis handla om extrema väderförhållanden som försvårar arbetet, eller arbetsområden som inte är tillgängliga för entreprenören på grund av en sidoentreprenör. Den här uppsatsen syftar till att utreda frågan om när ett hinder kan anses bero på beställaren, eller något förDuring the course of construction, there is a high risk of events that cause delays for the contractor. These events can for example con¬sist of extreme weather conditions that are obstructing the construction works, or the work area being occupied by sub-contractors. This thesis aims to investigate un¬der what conditions the contractor can be given extension of time and/or compensation for prolon

Different forest conditions are desired by forestry and reindeer husbandry to accommodate each sectors’ distinct interests, promoting high timber and pulp production or improved
Äldre anställdas ställning på arbetsmarknaden är onekligen osäker. I detta arbete försöker jag att räta ut och förstå hur äldre arbetstagare är skyddade på arbetsmarknaden genom att undersöka hur gällande rätt är designat. Detta görs genom en komparativ studie mellan Sverige och Kina, där en rad olika undersökningsområden kopplat till anställningsskydd för äldre bearbetas. Arbetet berör och förklaThe status of the elderly on the labour market is undeniably precarious. In this thesis, I am trying to straighten out how the elderly are protected on the labour market and how the legislation to protect them is designed. This is done through a comparative study between Sweden and China, where a number of research areas associated with employment protection for elderly are processed. I am, in thi

The Swedish rules for closely held companies were enacted to combat income conversion abuse in limited liability companies where natural persons acted as both owners and employees. In the Swedish Income Tax Act, employment income is taxed according to a progressive rate while capital income is taxed according to a flat rate. The wage remuneration rule may increase the amount of dividend that the a
Ett sätt för enskilda att försvara sina rättigheter som följer av Europakonventionen och få upprättelse för en överträdelse, är att väcka skadeståndstalan i domstol. Rättegångskostnadernas inverkan på enskildas möjlighet att försvara sina rättigheter gentemot staten har länge varit föremål för diskussion och frågan fick en central roll i teorin om Access to Justice på 1970-talet. Uppsatsen utrederOne way for individuals to assert their rights and receive compensation for damage when their rights have been violated, is to litigate for action for damages. The cost of litigating has for long been subject of discussion regarding individuals’ possibilities to claim their rights against the public. The matter was given a central role in the Access to Justice discussion in the 1970s. This essay e
