This paper examines the trade effects of increased trade policy uncertainty following the Brexit referendum by viewing the referendum’s influence on UK exports of goods to EU27 during the time period 2012-2019. This is done to give insight of how trade policy uncertainty can impact real economic behaviour, even when no classical trade barriers are changed. Methodologically, this is approached by e
To move to lower modes in extreme ultra-violet lithography (EUVL) technology (and keep up with Moore’s law), new sources of soft X-ray radiation must be developed. It is clear from previous studies that Free Electron Lasers (FELs) can easily meet the in-band power requirements at these lower wavelength modes, however detailed studies for insertion devices (undulators) as a soft X-ray lithography (
The aim of this paper is to study what role sustainability commitments of the target company have on merger strategies by studying bid premiums determinants between the years 2000 and 2020. The paper uses multivariable regression models that include, among other variables, the degree the target company commits to sustainability and the difference in how much the target and the acquirer commit to s
There have been much effort during the last decade towards resilience of critical infrastructures, but the research differs and resilience within critical infrastructures is still seen as a relatively new and unexplored area. The purpose of this work is to provide an understanding of how critical infrastructures in Sweden work with resilience. The objective is to create a general framework that ca
Tucker Carlson Tonight och Hannity är två konservativa, republikanskt vinklade, nyhetsprogram på den amerikanska nyhetskanalen Fox News (Grynbaum, 2020). Under sommaren år 2020 hade de två programmen flest tittarsiffror av alla amerikanska program på kabelkanaler i USA. Detta, trots att de stödjer ett republikanskt parti som enligt V-deminstitutets demokratiindex under flera år brutit mot ett fler
Bakgrund: Fysisk aktivitet har beprövad positiv effekt för personer med stressrelaterad ohälsa men är inte välstuderat inom Aktivitetsvetenskap. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva vilka typer av fysisk aktivitet personer med stressrelaterad ohälsa ägnar sig åt, i vilken omfattning de utförs samt beskriva vilka aktivitetsvärde personer med stressrelaterad ohälsa upplever i samband med fysisk aktivitet.Background: Physical activity has positive effects for people with stress related illness, but is not well studied within occupational therapy and occupational science. Aim: The aim was to describe to what extent people with stress related illness engage in physical activity, which types of physical activity they perform and their perceived occupational value when performing physical activity. Met
Uppsatsen analyserar forskningslitteraturens orsaksförklaringar till den muslimska radikaliseringen i Tjetjenien från 1990 fram till och med 2000 talet. Frågeställningarna som besvarats berör faktorerna bakom radikaliseringen i Tjetjenien, vilken plats islam har i förklaringar till radikaliseringen samt vilka likheter och skillnader det finns i olika orsaksförklaringarna. Radikaliseringens orsaksf
I denna uppsats har jag analyserat hur karaktärerna i tv-serien I Mumindalen framställs ur ett genusperspektiv. Att valet föll på tv-serien hade främst att göra med att jag såg hur barn bearbetar det de ser genom den fria leken och önskade därför undersöka närmare vad som egentligen förmedlas via tv-program för barn. Tv-serien bygger på Tove Janssons böcker och mitt urval begränsades till de avsni
The aim for this study was to examine what expectations parents have on the collaboration with their children’s public school in socio-economically disadvantaged areas in Landskrona and how they experience this collaboration. The aim was also to examine if the collaboration gets influenced by their position in the social class system. Using a phenomenological perspective, the study was based on 12
Bakgrund: Studier har funnit att arbetslöshet kan ha en negativ inverkan på människans hälsa och välmående, men det finns få studier kring arbetslöshet och aktivitetsbalans. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att utveckla en djupare förståelse för hur arbetslösa kvinnor i arbetsför ålder upplever sin aktivitetsbalans och hur deras nya vardag som arbetslös kan påverka hälsan och välmåendet. Metod: En tvä
The concept of road- and railway overbuilding is an increasingly popular method to use in spatial planning to get rid of physical barriers and create exploitable areas for residential, commercial, and recreational development. Despite the many benefits the method entails, it also brings a lot of problems and challenges regarding risk management with the main issue being how to evaluate and manage
In the Nordic countries, an increasing part of the population consists of migrants from various backgrounds. Naturally, it is important to investigate what can be done in order for these migrants to integrate successfully. Previous research shows that some of the fundamentals of integration are trust and the sense of collective identity. Therefore, it is important to further investigate the compon
“Description of an adventurous journey – An analysis of the historical Johan Brelin’s different identities and his world view”. In the 1750s, the young Johan Brelin set sail on a Swedish East India Company ship heading towards Canton, modern day Guangzhou, China. During his travels, he wrote down a travelogue containing his observations of the world. While en route home towards Sweden, he acciden
As the need to adapt to a changing climate and the political rhetoric in this regard are growing, Berlin’s Senate has issued strategic policies – complemented by an increase of funding. Berlin’s socio-cultural features and place-based factors seem predisposed for so-called “Nature-based Solutions” (NbS) that can support the achievement of adaptation efforts. This encouraging context seems to be co
The purpose of this paper is to examine whether the real imbalances that have arisen in the economy since the introduction of the euro are improving over time. By using panel data to test for a unit root in and measuring the half-life of eleven euro countries’ real exchange rates under different exchange rate systems from 1957 to 2019, we can investigate how the euro has affected the deviations fr
The stratospheric aerosol load after the eruption of Raikoke in 2019 have been analysed with satellite data from the CALIPSO satellite. The goal was to see how much the stratospheric aerosol load increased due to the Brewer Dobson circulation, and further, how this affected the stratospheric aerosol optical depth (AOD), and the corresponding radiative forcing (RF). This was done by performing a da
Att inkorporera barnkonventionen till lag har varit debatterat under ett flertal år i Sverige. Ett antal utredningar har gjorts genom åren där man kommit fram till att inkorporering inte är nödvändigt för att jobba i enlighet med konventionen. Trots motstånd beslutade riksdagen 2018att barnkonventionen skulle bli lag och år 2020 trädde lagen i kraft. Beslutet bemöttes både negativt och positivt fr
Syftet med studien var att se hur fenomenet utbrändhet framställs i media. Studien utgår ifrån två svenska tidningar där urvalet gjorts utifrån frågeställningarna om orsak, uttryck samt lösningar. Studien har begränsats med ett fokus på arbetstagare inom människovårdande yrken. Den valda metoden var en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. De teoretiska ramar analysen lutat sig mot är socialkonstruktivism, Between the lines and in the words about burnout The aim with this essay was to study how burnout is portrayed in massmedia. The study relies on two swedish journals where the selection was made regarding to the questions cause, expression and solution with a focus on people employed in the human care business. The chosen method was a qualitative content analysis. This study is based on the theor
The High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) at CERN, an improvement to the LHC, scheduled to be operating in 2027, will further the potential for scientific breakthroughs in High Energy Physics. The project’s demand in computational resources, however, is predicted to exceed what will be available then. Thus, efficiency optimization of Monte Carlo simulations of the collisions that occur in
