Inom ramen för detta system återfinns nämndemännen, ett inslag där lekmän utan juridisk utbildning deltar i rättsskipningen vid sidan av juristdomare.

Historically, the island has played an important military role, and this study examines its conte

Förevarande uppsats genomför en komparativ analys av den svenska och norska regleringen av beskattningen av aktiva delägare i mindre aktiebolag. I Sverige utgör de så kallade ”3:12-reglerna” ett särskilt regelverk, med syfte att motverka inkomstomvandling från arbetsinkomst till lägre beskattad kapitalinkomst samt att upprätthålla skatteneutralitet mellan olika inkomstslag. Reglerna särskiljer melThis essay undertakes a comparative analysis of the Swedish and Norwegian regulatory frameworks governing the taxation of active shareholders in small private limited liability companies.

In one of the most fragile regions in the world, the European Union (EU) has increased its attempts to bring peace by exporting its own vision of stability. This study examines how the EU has managed the relationship between development and security in the Sahel region through its Regional Action Plans (RAPs) from 2011, 2015, and 2021. Through the application of Mark Duffield's (2014) theory,

Through a comparative document analysis and application of Bacchi’s What’ s the Problem Represented to Be? (WPR) approach, the research identifies key similarities and difference

Cybernetics was initially opposed by the Soviet scientific establishment but would later come to flourish in the Soviet Union where it followed a specific development trajectory. The legitimisation and development of Soviet Cybernetics has been examined through the combined application of the multiple str

The Swedish arms export legislation was tightened in 2018, with a particular focus on imposing stricter requirements on recipient countries to demonstrate respect for human rights and democracy. Despite this, annual reports from the Swedish Inspectorate of Strategic Products (ISP) show that Sweden continues to export military equipment to countries that do not meet the new legal standards. While a

As political polarization in the United States has intensified in recent decades, scholars have increasingly turned their attention to the role of the media in shaping democratic trust and public discourse.

Wildlife globally is under threat, especially in sub-saharan Africa, with poaching as a major factor. The animals are a part of a biological ecosystem and also a key for tourism and hence the economies of many African countries. To help preserve wildlife and prevent poaching, technologies such as AI cameras and dashboards offer a crucial tool. The technologies need to be purchased and distributed,

This essay explores the critiques of modernity from posthuman and Indigenous perspectives, exploring their convergences and divergences. It argues that both frameworks challenge the anthropocentric and dualistic paradigms that have historically governed Western thought. Posthumanism encourages ontological humility by recognizing the non-dual nature of existence and more-than-human agency, while In

The interwar period constitutes a formative period in the history of European labour movements. This study examines why the Swedish labour movement, unlike several of its European counterparts, developed during the interwar period from a weak labour movement with competing centers of power to a strong and more unified social democratized movement.

The thesis has its theoretical starting point in environmental peacebuilding and is drawing and build

Den här uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka fandomen bland så kallade “swifties”, det vill säga Taylor Swift-fans. Taylor Swift är en av världens största artister och är i skrivande stund den mest streamade artisten på musikplattformen Spotify.

Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infections are still prevalent in humans, more prominent in immunocompromised individuals. These environmental mycobacteria are widely distributed in soil and water sources, making their exposure very common. In various organisms, phase variation enables reversible switches between avirulent and virulent states. Some strains of M. avium exhibit this visible phase

Mobile devices have expanded and increased flexibility in communication, but at the same time, they can disrupt presence and create distance and isolation between people. With the help of a qualitative interview study, the purpose of this study is to examine how mobile devices can impact communication and relationships within a family in various ways, based on the perspectives and experiences of y

This study aims to analyze how corruption affects the relationship between international trade and child development. Geographically, this study focuses on Sub-saharan Africa, since it has the highest levels of child mortality as well as the highest perceived corruption levels in the world. To evaluate this relationship, a fixed-effects model with robust standard errors has been implemented. The p

Bakgrund: Patienter som inte följer med ambulansen till akutmottagningen är ett allt vanligare inslag i ambulanssjukvården. Dock finns det en kunskapslucka kring vad som föranleder att patienter söker vård på akutmottagningen för samma problem efter att ha bedömts av ambulansen. Syfte: Belysa patienternas erfarenheter av att ej medfölja ambulanssjukvården till sjukhus och därefter på egen hand sök
