There were boats everywhere along the Swedish coastline, but how did the new boat users navigate and learn sea ethics if this was their first boating experiences? Overlooking todays nautical chart devices and who today’s intended users are. The gap in today’s market of navigation
Recent archaeological excavations have uncovered an Iron Age temple house in Vång providing new context to the centrality of Iron Age central Blekinge in Sweden, as well as its development into the Medieval period. This thesis aims to examine how that development unfolded using the lens of affordance theory combined with a GIS assisted source pluralistic analysis. Comparing Iron Age monuments with
This paper explores the relationship between temporary migration and fertility behaviour in Tajikistan. This research is motivated by the great volume of Tajikistanis who migrate temporarily from high-fertility Tajikistan to low-fertility Russia. Cox proportional hazards survival analysis models are used with a relatively large and representative dataset. The results of this analysis indicate that
The purpose of this thesis is to examine how state biographical narratives can change and how this process might affect a state’s ontological security. Moreover, it looks at whether interstate friendship could alleviate any feelings of anxiety caused by such changes. Using the case of Austria after World War II, the analysis focuses on political elites’ articulations of Austrian state identity alo

This paper examines critically the relationships between migration, remittances, and the human capital development of left-behind youths. Education, work, and health outcomes are considered. Pooled and panel logit regression models are applied to a large and nationally representative dataset of youths aged 7-22 residing in Tajikistan. The analysis yields mixed findings, suggesting that some left-b
There is a growing demand from policy makers for businesses to help close the consumer intention-action gap for sustainable product choice and strengthen the green economy. Moreover, there is increased interest from consumers in brands that are transparent about their environmental impact. This is not least the case for the focus sector of this study, food products, an industry responsible for aro
The purpose of this study has been to examine how lay judges serving in district courts and appellate courts talk about their experiences of racism and ethnic discrimination in legal proceedings and what strategies exist to counteract these contradictions. The focus is on the judges' presentation of their own stories about anticipating derogatory treatment of a defendants and what is done orga
Befintliga skatterättsliga principer grundar sig på föreställningar om att affärsverksamheter bedrivs genom fysisk närvaro. En stat kan därför, för närvarande, endast grunda beskattningsanspråk på en av de två huvudprinciperna hemvist eller källstat. Enligt den sistnämnda principen kan en stat enbart beskatta sådana företag som innehar någon form av fysisk etablering inom statens jurisdiktion. DigExisting tax law principles are based on notions that businesses operate through physical presence. Therefore, a state can only make tax claims based on either the residence principle, or the source principle. According to the latter, a state can only make tax claims against companies that have a physical establishment within the state’s jurisdiction. However, digitalisation and the progression of
The Covid-19 pandemic and climate change are two current crises happening at the same time. Prior research found that both crises have the potential to influence a person’s anxiety levels and mental health in general. The two types of anxiety Covid-19 anxiety and climate anxiety are still largely unexplored, and little is known about their association with each other. This study investigated Covid
Enligt den Europeiska konventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna och grundläggande friheterna (EKMR) krävs jurisdiktion för att en avtalsslutande part ska kunna hållas ansvarig, när ett påstående om intrång av non-refoulement enligt EKMR uppstår. Stater genomför extraterritoriella gränskontroller för att kontrollera migranter och internationella flyktingar utanför statens egna territoriuAccording to the European Convention on Human Rights, jurisdiction is a prerequisite for holding a contracting state responsible when an allegation of infringement of the ECHR arises, such as the principle of non-refoulement. States implement extraterritorial migration management measures trying to avoid triggering the principle of non-refoulement arguing that it cannot be applied extraterritorial
Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur högre chefer inom besöksnäringen upplever jämställdhet i karriärutveckling samt hur jämställdhet tar sig till uttryck i deras arbetsliv. Studien strävar även efter att undersöka om det alltmer uppmärksammade jämställdhetsarbetet i samhället endast resulterar i dokumenterade formaliteter eller genererar verklig skillnad i praktiken för chefer inom besöksnäringen.
A long shelf life is of utmost importance when it comes to storage of food. Oats are expected to be easy to store like other cereals. However, oats that are stored for a long period of time are susceptible to becoming rancid, owing to its high lipid content. The lipids are mostly unsaturated fatty acids and prone to deterioration by native lipases which release fatty acids like oleic, linoleic and
Climate change-induced thawing of permafrost mobilizes previously frozen carbon of high potential reactivity, thereby, fuelling microbiological production of greenhouse gases. For this work, an analysis of the quantity, quality, and bioreactivity of DOC in streams from the Stordalen discontinuous permafrost catchment was carried out with stream water samples during the relatively warm summer of 20
The study aims to explore how female weightlifters discuss and question the discourse ”muscles are for men” and other assumptions about body and gender norms in strength training. The study focuses on how the accounts, through commentary and appearance, put themselves against traditional gender norms and how strength training operates as a norm-breaking practice. Further, the essay analyzes the wi
Progress in patient safety in healthcare has been frustratingly slow despite 20 years of intense effort. Recent literature suggests that current approaches inadequately address the complexity of healthcare, possibly explaining this lack of progress. What then sustains the current safety norm, sustaining a mismatched safety model in the face of challenge? This research project explores this issue
