Agila avtal är ett förhållandevis nytt fenomen och uppmärksammat begrepp. Fenomenet härstammar ursprungligen från ett agilt arbetssätt, som är särskilt utbrett inom IT-branschen. Traditionella avtal är upprättade utifrån förutsättningen att parterna redan vid avtalstillfället vet vad som ska levereras, när och hur. Det uppställs en uttömmande kravspecifikation vid projektets början. I ett agilt Agile contracts are a relatively new phenomenon that has gained increased recognition. This phenomenon originates from an agile approach, which is particularly widespread in the IT industry. Traditional contracts are based on a situation where the parties know what they need before the project starts. The requirements are set out comprehensively at the outset of the project. In an agile contract,

Greece in a period of financial crisis (2008-2013) is questioning the success of its policy implementation. The training centers for the intellectually disabled, as implementers of policies and programs on a national and European level, also question that success. Using Foucault’s concept of power relations within society, it is aimed to find whether policies and programmes for the intellectually

Sufficient access to financial resources is important in sustaining a business especially in the early phases. First years in business development are very critical since owners learn by doing mistakes in order to get a proof of concept of the business idea. Being aware of this fact, external financial institutions try to avoid taking part in highly risky endeavours. Although there are financial o

Many European football clubs have developed a more strategic and business-like thinking within their organizations that has resulted in partly altered business models and views on competition, sustainable competitive advantage and organization. In this thesis we investigate this development with a certain focus on Swedish football industry. The investigation is driven by the question of how Swedis

The purpose of this report is to perform an evaluation of life safety in case of fire at Cirkus in Stockholm. Cirkus is a heritage listed building that offers a lot of different events, such as concerts and conferences. This report is limited to only cover the public areas of the building. No account is taken to either economic losses or environmental impacts in case of fire. The method employed i

Samlevnadsformen har stor betydelse för vilket skydd ett par åtnjuter. Sambor saknar till skillnad från makar arvsrätt efter varandra och även vid fastställande av faderskap föreligger betydande skillnader. I denna framställning har utretts varför så är fallet, hur dessa skillnader motiveras och om lagstiftningen utifrån sambors perspektiv är i förändringsbehov. Kyrkan har haft betydande inflytaCohabitation forms have great significance concerning the type of protection provided for couples. Cohabitees lack, unlike spouses, the right to inherit each other by law. Furthermore, the determination of paternity differs substantially. This paper investigates why this is the case, how the differences are justified and whether the legislation, from cohabitees’ perspective, requires modification.

The influence of crowdfunding on financing entrepreneurial ventures and projects have been increasing in recent years. It allows founders of crowdfunding projects to achieve investments from a relatively big crowd using the internet. The recent rise of the crowdfunding phenomena attracts more project founders to establish it as a new entrepreneurial finance method, between bootstrapping and tradit

This study looks at effectual and causal logics in entrepreneurial decision-making. We have compared entrepreneurially educated novices with expert entrepreneurs using think-aloud protocols to determine differences in their effectual logics and expertise in general. Prior research suggests that experts are more likely to take an effectual approach when solving problems (Sarasvathy, 2008; Dew et al

The Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) is a worldwide international survey conducted every third year with the purpose to evaluate the education systems in many different countries by testing the skills and knowledge of 15-year old students. PISA tests the students knowledge in reading, mathematics and science. Since 2000, the PISA test is performed each third year, as 15-year o

Ex gratia betyder ”av nåd” och är en ersättning som regeringen kan bevilja utan att det finns lagstöd för rätt till ersättning. Det finns flera anledningar till en sådan ersättningsform. Det kan ex. vara så att samhället har ändrat värderingar och att en tidigare lagstiftning har drabbat vissa individer på ett sådant sätt att samhället i efterhand vill ta ansvar och genom en ekonomisk ersättning fEx gratia means ”of mercy” and can be granted by the government when they find it motivated to compensate individuals economically even though the individual has no rightful legal claim. Such compensation is motivated by various reasons. For instance it can be that society has gone through a change of values and that previous legislation as a result has affected some individuals in such a way that

1. Inledning Under 1900-talet förändrades Sverige från ett efterblivet och ojämlikt land till ett föregångsland i hela världen när det gäller demokrati och mänskliga rättigheter. Vägen dit var långt ifrån rak och oproblematisk, och på vägen blev många människor förbisedda. I synnerhet en folkgrupp - som inte ens började räknas som sådan förrän vid andra halvan av 1900-talet trots att de hade levt

Scientific summary Urban growth and recent development removes the natural land cover and replaces it with a new cover of manmade features (e.g. buildings, streets, industrial areas, commercial complexes etc.). Accordingly, the local climate of these cites has been modified by new land use and land cover alterations which has created the Urban Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon. Erbil City in northern I

Today, the majority of employees in the tourism industry work under contingent and fairly insecure working conditions, among them seasonal employees. In this industry, the business of amusement parks and resort hotels is one with a high quota of seasonally hired front-line employees. Research from Human Resource Manage¬ment pinpoints the underlying risks of low commitment among employees in an ind

The aim with the study was to analyse school counselor´s descriptions of how students mental ill-health expresses itself. We also aimed to analyse how they describe causes and solutions in relation to the students’ mental ill-health. Our study is based on qualitative semi-structured interviews with six school counselors, who are all working at different secondary schools in the south of Sweden. Th

I detta arbete har paleontologiska och impaktrelaterade studier gjorts på ett sedimentprov taget från ett anomalt rött lerlager i Schweiz. Lerlagret hör till den övre sötvattensmolassen och är avsatt för ca 14Ma.Då man i andra närliggande och samtida avlagringar hittat chockad kvarts och s.k. slagkäglor finns möjligheten att även detta lerlager bildats vid ett nedslag av en himlakropp. Den SchweizIn this thesis, paleontological and impakt related studies have been made on a sediment sample taken from an anomalous red clay layer in Switzerland. The clay layer belongs to the Upper Freshwater Molasse and was deposited at approximately 14 Ma. In other nearby and contemporary deposits shocked quartz and shatter cones have been identified and therefore it is possibile that this clay layer also w

Permanent Metal Deck Forms (PMDFs) currently are used in building application as a lateral beam bracing. In the bridge applications, PMDFs are frequently used to support the wet concrete of bridge decks during the construction phase, but they are not relied on as lateral bracing. The girders in the bridge system are subjected to lateral torsional buckling that occurs under the casting of the bridg

In the last decade Central and Eastern Europe faced surge in foreign capital inflows and economic growth. Foreign direct investment played significant role in forming government policies, development in the infrastructure and national income generation. While most research has been done on FDI impact on per capita real GDP growth, this paper takes alternative approach and examines the effects of t
