In 2006 the Swedish parliament, riksdagen, decided upon guidelines to increase the committees work with science. I have made a mapping to see how this work is carried through in practice and how it has developed over time. My method and material consist of interviews with members of parliament and civil servants and governmental documents. As a background I have used experts- and democracy theory

Sammanfattning Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur våld, riktad mot någon annan familjemedlem än barnet, påverkar bedömningen av barnets bästa i frågor om vårdnad, boende och umgänge. Denna fråga inkluderar avvägningen mellan frågor om vårdnad, boende samt barnets rätt till umgänge med en förälder å ena sidan, och den våldutsatta kvinnans rätt till skydd å andra sidan. Det handlar alltsåSummary The aim of this study is to examine how violence against a member of the family other than the child, is affecting the assessment of the child's best interests in matters of legal custody, residence and access. This issue includes questions about legal custody, residence and the child's right to access to a parent on the one hand and the abused woman's right to protection on th

The results of Multiple Correspondence Analysis suggest that regardless of changes in perception of ‘FATE’ in American and Russian cultures during the last two centuries, the main distinctions such as perception of ‘FATE’ as Deterministic but Non-Agentive (things may happen but it is up to an individual to take charge) in American culture and Deterministic and Agentive in Russian culture (things h

The area of public procurement has a significant financial impact on the Union market, proven by the fact that 18% of the Union’s GDP is spent by public authorities on resources that are regulated by the legislative framework surrounding public procurement. Such a significant spending therefore has the possibility of controlling the behaviour of the supply side on the market by demonstrating what

Nollbeskattningen av gemenskapsinterna förvärv i kombination med uppskjuten betalning av moms har möjliggjort karusellbedrägeri med moms på den EU-interna marknaden. Följaktligen har medlemsstaterna drabbas av utebliven moms som inte redovisas av ”missing traders”, samtidigt som den oskyldige affärspartnern till en ”missing trader” behåller sin rätt att återfå moms, vilket skapar en förlust för stThe zero-rating of intra-Community acquisitions in combination with the deferred payment of VAT has made it possible to employ carousel fraud with VAT on the internal EU market. Not only are the tax authorities in the different Member States losing out on VAT that is not accounted for by missing traders, but the innocent parties in business with the missing traders retain a right to refund VAT, le

This master thesis work consists of the development of new hardware and software for the control box of an azimuthal guidance system used by aircrafts during the approach to the runway. The thesis work was done at Safegate International AB as a project running along the usual development projects. When designing electronics to be used on an airfield there are a lot of regulations and standards t

The world is facing complex sustainability challenges, and the quest for a more sustainable world is characterized by uncertainty, both regarding goals and means. It is argued that this uncertainty requires a social learning process, where people collectively find shared problem perception and directions for sustainable solutions. The Swedish 4H farms have a great potential of being a platform for

Heavy trucks vehicles by design often suffer from issues causing driver discomfort. That discomfort is here considered caused by oscillations in the driveline, which are affecting the driver. The driveline oscillations – sometimes referred to as shunt and shuffle - exist because of the sheer amount of power in a heavy truck engine, combined with a driveline where the components are relatively weak

Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie var att genom halvstrukturerade intervjuer undersöka unga vuxnas erfarenheter av att medicinera mot depression, samt hur de förstår sitt tillstånd som deprimerade. Elva informanter mellan 20 och 30 år, som diagnostiserats med depression och använt SSRI eller SNRI, intervjuades, och materialet analyserades med hjälp av tematisk analys. Resultatet visade att inforThe purpose of this qualitative study was to explore how young adults experience depression and antidepressant medication, and how they understand their condition. Using semi-structured interviews, eleven interviewees between the ages of 20 and 30, who had been diagnosed with depression and had medicated with SSRI or SNRI, were interviewed, and the results were analyzed using thematic analysis.

Ett 200 meter djupt borrhål avviker ofta mer eller mindre från sin planerade bana. Hur mycket borrhålet avviker beror på de geologiska förutsättningarna, vilken borrteknik och vilken borrutrustning som används. Alternativet kan vara så kallad riktad borrning vilket innebär att styrning kopplas på borrhammaren för att få hålet så rakt som möjligt. Priset på riktad borrning ligger i storleksordningeA 200 meter deep borehole often deviates more or less from its planned path. How much the borehole deviates depends on the geological conditions, the drilling technique and drilling equipment used. The alternative is directional drilling which means that a device is coupled to the rotary hammer to make the hole as straight as possible. The cost of directional drilling is in the order of 50 % highe

Denna uppsats behandlar restriktioner för utländskt ägande i aktiebolag i Förenade Arab Emiraten (UAE). Till en början kommer studien att guida oss genom en översikt av bolagsetablering samt bolagsstrukturer i landet, vilket sedermera leder till att specificera skillnaderna mellan frizon och fastland. Följaktligen avgränsas studien för att snävare fokusera på aktiebolag i fastlandet. Här presenterThis essay covers the subject of foreign ownership restrictions in LLCs in UAE mainland. In the beginning the study will guide us through an overview of the incorporation process and recognized company structures, which further specifies the differences between free zone and mainland. Accordingly, the study narrows down to focus on mainland LLCs, where the 49/51 rule, which restricts foreign inves

Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) is a technique to rapidly collect detailed and accurate data of an object. The technology can briefly be described as a laser beam emitted by an instrument which sweeps across a target object collecting millions of closely placed coordinates (x,y,z) in a matter of minutes. Terrestrial Laser Scanning technology has existed for a long time however only in recent year

Ne bis in idem is an evolving and current topic of EU law where recent case law has affected its application. The Swedish tax system contains administrative proceedings that can result in fines that can thereafter be followed (or initiated) with a criminal offence proceeding. The ECtHR revised its view on the Ne bis in Idem in Zolothukin v Russia and concluded that the Identity of the facts was de
