Human Capital is deemed as an imperative factor for economic growth, however, it is argued the extent of this interrelation. Acemoglu, Gallego and Robinson (2014) claim that the institutional framework of a nation, in specificthose of private property are deemed as pivotal for a nation’s development. In this sense, in order to contectualise this argument, the current thesis focuses on the case of

This work studies the practice of school trips to the memorial sites of the Holocaust with the aim of investigating how history is used in order to form tolerance among the participating students. The study employs a theoretical foundation of practice theory and literature on the academic debate on learning from the past. Thematic analysis is used for analyzing commonalities and differences in 7 i

The Art Museum has long acted as a complex and multifaceted symbol of power, exclusion and liberation. In recent time, the Art Museum’s position has shifted from a place of fine culture, a space that separate the elite from “the others”, to undergo a democratization in an attempt to reach a wider audience and become more accessible. At the same time, there is a conflict regarding the Art Museum wh

This thesis examines how bisexuality get constructed as a distinct sexual orientation category through asylum determination processes in Sweden. With a theoretical focus on the interaction between notions of sexuality and national borders this study also investigates how the assessment of ‘sexual orientation’ asylum claims contribute to the regulation of the Swedish border. To investigate these tw

A prototype of a novel 10B-based neutron detector called the Multi-Grid detector has been constructed, tested and commissioned for the European Spallation Source (ESS). The detector is constructed after the specifications set by the CSPEC instrument at ESS and is therefore called the CSPEC Multi-Grid detector. The detector uses multiple layers of solid coating containing 10B4C on the edges of a vo

The primary aim of the following study is to examine how a brand can achieve social sustainability by integrating ethical Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) into their communication of reports. This thesis will study the two active fashion brands GANNI and H&M Group with material that consist of two qualitative content analyses of “GANNI Responsibility Report 2021” and “H&M Group Annual

The success of future Internet of Things (IoT) depends on, among the other things, developing energy-effcient communication techniques that can enable information exchange among billions of IoT devices with ultra-low/zero power consumption requirements. Ambient backscatter communications is an emerging technology, which utilizes the ambient Radio Frequency (RF) signal as the carrier to reduce the

This thesis presents the temperature dependence of InGaAs Nanowire (NW) metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) grown at two different temperatures. The two different growths represent one sample having nanowires which have a mixed crystal structure (showing stacking faults) and one sample with nanowires of pure crystal structure (without stacking faults). The sample with a pu

This thesis will explore the role of cryptocurrencies in a market index portfolio. The portfolios of a mix of Bitcoin, Ether and the market indices S&P 500, OMXS30 and VTI will be examined and optimized to maximize the Sharpe ratio. This process is done using the Markowitz Portfolio Theory for portfolios containing one market index and either one or both cryptocurrencies, numerically optimizin

Sammanfattning Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka samt beskriva omfattningen av köparens undersökningsplikt vid en immaterialrättslig due diligence. En immaterialrättslig due diligence är en undersökning av de immateriella rättigheterna. Exempel på vad som kan undersökas är datarum, diverse licensavtal, anställningsavtal, registreringar etc. Immateriella rättigheter kan vara det som skapar Summary The purpose of this thesis is to examine and describe the buyer's duty to investigate the company's intellectual property. Intellectual property can have a significant meaning for a commercial company, the intellectual property can also be the core of the company. Intellectual property is divided into four central laws. The first law is the Act on Copyright in Literary and Artisti

Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka situationen för de strukturellt hemlösa i Malmö idag. Detta i avseende till en ny vägledning skriven av Malmö stad som menar att det bara är de socialt hemlösa som bör få bistånd till boende och inte de strukturellt hemlösa. Studien inkluderar intervjuer med personal från organisationen Skåne Stadsmission och även en kvalitativ innehållsanalys av denna nya Headline: Structural homelessness - An intersectional study of the consequences of Malmö Municipality’s work with homelessness. The purpose of this study is to explore the situation of the structurally homeless in Malmö today. This regards to a new guideline made by the municipality of Malmö that states that only the socially homeless should be able to get housing assistance, meaning that the st

Organisationer kan reglera anställdas identiteter med hjälp av en värdegrund. När anställda känner en stark koppling till värdegrunden kan anställda identifiera sig med organisationen. Vår forskning avslöjar att det kan finnas fördelar med en värdegrund som att motivera och inspirera anställda, samt skapa en gemenskap och karriärmöjligheter. Vår forskning avslöjar att det finns nackdelar med att i

Alla som äger en byggnad som nyttjas av människor är skyldiga att kontrollera så att bygganden inte påverkar människorna som brukar den negativt med avseende på hälsa och miljö. Genom att studera litteratur och lagkrav fås tillräcklig information för att intervjua några få aktörer i branschen för att se om lagkraven uppfylls. Resultatet visar på att egenkontroller sker till vid grad men inte på etEveryone who owns a property that is used frequently by people must have a selfmonitoring system to check every aspect that can harm the environment or people’s health. By studying literature, the law that which regulates self-monitoring, which is Miljöbalken to get the necessary information in the subject and later preforming interviews with people working in this field to see if what is regulate

This essay explores morality and its connection to the context and historicity of its surrounding in relation to literature. The essay is based on the analysis of Dostoevsky’s book Crime and punishment published in 1866 and is centred around the main character Raskolnikov and his argumentation in defending his morally questionable actions. The essay aims to answer how one can understand the moral

The main goal of this thesis is to find out, what is a complicated product and if complicated products can be more simplified in their properties, which are these properties and finally to incorporate these properties in the design of an object. The final design will be carried out in a full scale model to understand and test the implemented properties of simplification directly on the product in

Detecting log data anomalies in real-time is useful since it makes it possible to apply logic that corrects the anomalies when they happen. This project presents a method for detecting public transportation bus event log data anomalies in realtime, without having a labeled data set. Initially, each unique bus trip is represented by the event frequencies, a representation that is not suitable for r

In this thesis, a method that generates critical situations for autonomous vehicles with fewer resources was investigated. To produce these key examples, the strategy in this thesis explores optimization and reinforcement learning. These key examples are defined as Edge cases; these cases are situations on the border between safe and unsafe. To be able to search for them, in this paper, they are d
