Den här uppsatsen undersöker Europadomstolens praxis gällande utvisningar av personer som har begått brott, som hävdar att deras utvisning strider mot Artikel 8 av Europakonventionen.

Community energy (CE) gains attention as a pathway towards energy justice (EJ). Drawing on qualitative data collected on Gotland, we examine how the Austerland CE project delivers EJ. Our findings indicate that despite gender equality among members

This master's thesis explores the use of unsupervised machine learning techniques to cluster countries based on their degree of human rights violations. Accordingly, the study evaluates the performance of two clustering methods, K-Means clustering and Latent Class Analysis (LCA), using two cluster validation metrics (Silhouette Coefficient and Dunn Index), as well as an Accuracy measure using

In the past years, antigenderism has become a growing coalition that has moved from being a monopoly of the Vatican to being picked up by Catholic associations and politicians, quickly reaching the general public. The word “gender” has become an empty signifier to attack queer and feminist agendas, sexual and reproductive rights but also gender studies scholars and courses. A big role in the sprea

This thesis examines the utilization of internal controls as means of facilitating effective use of free cash flow (FCF) by managers, with the aim of preventing potential issues that may distort their relationship with shareholders. The objective was to understand the means of mitigating FCF issues by identifying internal controls within the companies to guarantee the effective utilization of cash

The aim of this thesis is to examine the impact of climate change on the rights of children with disabilities and the development of their capabilities in Cambodia. Children with disabilities are one of the most marginalized groups in any society and one of the most affected by climate change. Using the social-ecological model and the capability approach, this paper analyzes participants' stor

In its proposed 2023 Critical Raw Materials Act, the European Commission considers access to critical raw materials within its territory as key to both the green transition and to reduce import dependencies. This onshoring of extractivist practices warrants a critical analysis that reflects on the justice implications this may have for local communities. Therefore, I apply an integrated post-struc

Denna studie syftade till att undersöka sambandet mellan psykologiskt kapital och balansen mellan arbetsliv och privatliv bland anställda i större kommunförvaltningar (N=140). För att genomföra studien användes en digital enkät som inkluderade demografiska frågor samt två befintliga skalor avsedda att mäta respondenternas psykologiska kapital och deras balans mellan arbetsliv och privatliv. DataanThis study aimed to investigate the correlation between psychological capital and work-life balance among employees in larger municipal administrations (N=140).

The paper aims to examine the effect of companies announcing to become carbon neutral in the Nordic countries on their stock prices. By conducting an event study approach on the four main markets of the Nordics we find that, on average, only the Oslo Stock Exchange reacts positively to these announcements. We show that a less ambitious carbon neutrality target announcement leads to yielding higher

Conventional agriculture and animal husbandry are leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions,environmental degradation, and biodiversity loss. Biocyclic Vegan Agriculture (BVA) is an approach that aims to address the concerns of modern agriculture and provide a sustainable and ethical alternative. Through the heuristic lens of the Multi-Level Perspective, where BVA serves as a potential niche, thi

Tröger’s Base (TB) is a bicyclic compound containing a methanodiazocine group between two aromatic rings. The methylene bridge forces the molecule to have a bent formation; thus, the aromatic rings are close to 90 degrees relative to each other, resulting in a rigid concave aromatic cavity. These unique properties make TB a great candidate as a molecular cleft compound and a good structure as a mo

This study analyzes the memory of Rosenhagen, a People’s Park in Anderslöv. The Park was founded in 1930 by the local labor movement and has since then served varied, but important functions in the community. In January 2022, the main building in the Park was burned down in arson, which initiated a process within the association to write down the history of the Park to make sure that Rosenhagen wo

Despite the long-established commitment to gender mainstreaming in global development, its transformative potential remains questionable in practice. This thesis explores how development practitioners tasked with gender mainstreaming responsibilities in Danish non-governmental organisations mediate between ideal and practice in their daily work. Through twelve semi-structured interviews, I bring t
