The humanitarian crisis in Syria is worse than ever. The late efforts by the UN Security Council have not improved the situation on the ground. The Syrian regime continues to violently supress its people and the opposition responds in a similar manner. Effects of the brutality can be seen in Turkey where thousands of Syrian citizens seek refuge and the Security Council has determined that the cris
Is the language and terminology used in the Church of Sweden understandable to young people? Many scientists have investigated the religiosity of youth and the liturgical language, but there is no completed study on the relationship between the language that young people use in discussions about existential issues and the language of the representatives of the Church of Sweden. This study examine
In the year of 1999, Sweden became the first country in the world to criminalize the act of buying sexual services. However, selling sexual services for compensation still remains legal even up to this day. Arguments about gender equality, the protection of prostitutes and the connection of prostitution to trafficking were used to support the Swedish legislation. Opponents to this argue that this
Human beings have a universal human dignity. To realize it, they have to use the human rights that come with it. After the acknowledgement of their own dignity, they can respect human beings as bearers of the universal dignity. To respect the dignity is both to treat every human being as a subject, a goal itself, trough collaboration, and to create and maintain the conditions that need to exist fo
Inom hälso- och sjukvården är forskning rörande teamarbete en relativt ny företeelse. Flera studier påvisar motsättningar mellan professionerna inom operationsteamet i stora delar av världen. Nationella studier inom området saknas. Syftet med studien var att undersöka det perioperativa samarbetet inom operationsteamet. Metoden genomfördes med kvantitativ ansats genom strukturerade icke-deltagande

Theoretical studies assessing innovation capabilities often tend to be general. This literature might not be completely applicable in practice when it discussing utilities, which are heavily affected by their external environment. Exploring which factors that drive innovation in a utility would therefore cover a gap currently existing in innovation management literature. A theoretical contribution
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: AB Klippans Läderfabrik var under sina verksamma år en av de största arbetsgivarna i området. Ett flertal giftiga ämnen användes i verksamheten, främst krom men även formalin och under en kort period arsenik. Fabrikstomten kom med tiden att förorenas. Stora delar av fabriken brann ned år 1917 och röken från branden sträckte sig in över ett intilliggande villaomrDuring environmental investigations at the polluted Klippan Leather Factory, elevated levels of arsenic were detected in the adjacent residential area. The arsenic is believed to have originated from a fire in the leather factory in 1917, when a plume of smoke covered the residential area and deposited arsenic as fallout. Investigations showed that the pollution was located in the topsoil, and dur
Last few years, services such as Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) and Voice over Internet Protocol (ValP) have been in focus. Network operators see a huge potential in streaming real-time media over IP-networks and this lays the ground for so called paid services such as Video on Demand (VOD) as well as free services like YouThbe and SVT Play. IPTV delivers content over a closed infrastructure

This thesis addresses the complexities of the situation of the Roma in Romania and Spain and the challenges of including isolated groups in society. The main texts used for comparison come from the Council of Europe’s expert bodies: the European Commission Against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI), the Advisory Committee (ACFC) under the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities (
Det svenska arbetslöshetsunderstödet tog form under sent 1800-tal efter initiativ från fackförbunden. En arbetslöshetsförsäkring under statlig kontroll grundlades först 1935. Den statliga arbetslöshetsförsäkringen, i fortsatt statlig regi, var i princip den enda regelbundna ersättningen som en arbetslös kunde erhålla under sin arbetslöshet fram till slutet av 1960-talet. Ett nytt omställningssysteThe Swedish unemployment benefits took shape during the late 1800s by an initiative from the trade unions. An unemployment insurance under state control became reality in 1935. The unemployment insurance was, during a couple of decades, virtually the only regular compensation an unemployed could receive during his or her unemployment. This changed during the 1960s. A complementary transition syste
Skillnader i sparnivå kan utifrån ekonomisk tillväxtteori förklara en del i varför ekonomier växer i olika takt. Uppsatsen behandlar landsspecifika faktorer vilka utifrån bakomliggande mikro- och makroekonomiskteori kan tänkas förklara varför vissa länder sparar mer än andra. En uppdelning görs i privat och offentligt sparande för att undersöka om de påverkas av samma faktorer. Även relationen mel
Syftet med förevarande uppsats är att utifrån en komparativ studie av svensk och engelsk rätt beskriva hur respektive lands regleringar gällande beslutanderätten vid gemensam vårdnad och parental responsibility är utformade samt vad ifrågakommande lagstiftningar innebär. Huvudregeln i svensk rätt avseende beslutanderätt vid gemensam vårdnad är att konsensus ska föreligga mellan vårdnadshavarna nThe purpose of this essay is to describe and compare the Swedish regulation concerning joint custody and the English regulation regarding parental responsibility. In Swedish law the principle rule is that both parents should make all decisions regarding a child together, if they have joint custody. In English law the starting point is that each person with parental responsibility may act alone a
Det finns faktorer som påverkar sjuksköterskors hälsa och stressnivå. Dessa kan få konsekvenser för både individen och verksamheten. För att förutse och beskriva hälsoproblem kan skattningsformuläret ProQOL användas. Syftet med studien var att beskriva den professionella livskvaliteten bland specialistsjuksköterskor på operationsavdelningar samt se om den skiljer sig mellan anestesi- och operation
Background: There has been a recent global movement toward certification of “green” buildings. The Sweden Green Building Council currently supports four sustainable building certification schemes: LEED, BREEAM, Miljöbyggnad, and GreenBuilding. These systems use widely disparate criteria to assess building sustainability and are adopted at differing rates within the nation. They are also constantly
Where debtors seek to open insolvency proceedings in a Member State that have the most favourable insolvency regime it is referred to as "forum shopping".

When administrations of customs procedures are heterogeneous, lack mutual cooperation and suffer from unnecessary complexity, they become non-tariff barriers to trade. The WCO International Convention on the Simplification and Harmonization of Customs procedures (Revised Kyoto Convention) serve as a blueprint for modern and efficient customs procedures, supplementary to the WTO negotiations on
The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is of great interest to me for many reasons; particularly, I want to stress the Palestinian Christian’s position in the current situation. The Palestinian Christians belong to several denominations, of which I have chosen to focus on two minority churches: the Lutheran and the Anglican. My intention is to find if, and how, the situation affects the liturgy of these
This thesis discusses the potentials of application of the EU Trade Barriers Regulation (TBR) to EU-Russia trade relations. In light of the forthcoming and long-awaited Russia's WTO accession (expected to be completed in mid-2012), the theoretical analysis suggests that the TBR would become functional and useful for EU companies in tackling obstacles to trade on the Russian market. Also, this
