Den ekonomiska krisen 2008 bemöttes i flera europeiska länder med åtstramningar av offentliga utgifter. Detta påverkade ländernas förmåga att bidra med social välfärd. Arbetsmarknadsforskning har lyft fram hur kollektivavtal kan spela en viktig roll för att understödja ansträngd, statsfinansierad välfärd genom att tillgodose arbetstagare med trygghet på arbetsmarknaden. Samtidigt är även kollektiv

Parkinsons sjukdom är den näst vanligaste neurologiska sjukdomen efter Alzheimers sjukdom och drabbar årligen runt 2000 personer i Sverige. Sjukdomen drabbar oftast personer över 55 år och ger problem med nedsatt rörelseförmåga, ofrivilliga skakningar och stelhet. Idag finns ingen behandling som botar Parkinsons, och det största hindret mot utvecklingen av en effektiv behandling är bristen på kunsThe 13C mobility and cross-β-sheet structure of lipid-protein co-assemblies formed by incubating ganglioside GM3-containing model membranes with the amyloid protein α-synuclein were investigated by solid-state NMR and wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) at varying lipid-to-protein ratios and membrane compositions at body temperature. The POPCGM3 model membrane was characterized by PT ssNMR and X-ra

As global warming continues to change the global climate, extreme weather events become more common. The effects of such events vary regionally due to both natural and anthropo- genic influences. This study identifies the main mechanisms causing coastal erosion in Äng- elholm and evaluates the adaptation measures implemented by the municipality. A case study of Vejbystrand, a sandy beach in the mu

The purpose of this study is to explore whether communicating the liabilities of newness can justify young ventures’ offshoring decisions to such an extent that it moderates country-of-origin (COO) effects. We adjust the established concept of COO effects to the entrepreneurial context and therefore include the country of ownership (CO) instead of the country of design (CD) next to the commonly us

The heated debate about the future of the lignite industry in Germany manifests itself around two major issues: CO2 emissions and jobs. While there is a growing mobilisation of the climate justice movement which demands an immediate phase out of lignite, the mining union IG BCE is a vocal opponent of a lignite phase out in the near future. The conflict confirms the often conjured antagonism betwee

Between 2017 and 2025 Sweden is in need of an additional 600 000 homes to supply the current widespread shortage of housing. At the same time, this addition should preferably take place without taking new land in use. One way to densify effectively is to use existing industrial facilities in central locations. This thesis aims at promoting cultural and architectural history by creating recommendat

The thesis examines how the Palestinian women’s initiative of the shadow councils contributes to female political participation opportunities in the Palestinian National Authority areas (PNAa). The shadow councils are women groups that lend support to elected local councilwomen and encourage women who are not yet politically active to run for local offices. Based on qualitative field research in t

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om korruption, pressfrihet och gini-koefficienten påverkar graden av underprissättning i europeiska länder. En deduktiv ansats och en kvantitativ metod används för att uppnå syftet. Studien använder sig av tvärsnittsdata och genomför tre separata multipla regressionsanalyser, en för var oberoende variabel. Teorier från tidigare forskning i ämnet används.

Two decades after emerging from war and after many years of delay, Bosnia and Herzegovina at last submitted an EU membership application in 2016. There is little doubt, however, that candidate status and accession are still a long way off. Reform process is slow, and the country’s state of democracy is undermined by a variety of factors. To evaluate perspectives for the future, this paper investig

The aim of this thesis is to test Swedish Japanese learners’ knowledge of the Japanese topic and subject markers, wa and ga. This was done through sending out surveys, where the participants were forced to choose an answer out of four options for each sentence. The four types of sentences which were tested were embedded clauses with individual-level predicates, embedded clauses with stage-level pr

Under de senaste åren har de skett en avsevärd ökning av brott som begås av unga män i Sverige. Från stöld till rån med våld fortsätter brott att vara en ständig hot mot samhället. Behovet att övervinna de flesta av dessa problem har lett många myndigheter så som brottsförebygganderådet till att söka lösningar genom statistik på ett problem som de ibland hittar orsakerna till. Men bakom varje brot

Throughout history industries have been located adjacent to water courses to use water in the process, for transport and release of wastewater. This is also the case along the Arboga river. Due to climate change the estimated increase and greater variations in temperature and precipitation may induce a greater risk of flood, landslide and erosion along Arboga river, increasing the spread of pollut

Since their emergence in the 1950’s, ice cores have ventured from being scientific objects of concern to a limited number of glaciologists to becoming one of the most iconic representations of anthropogenic climate change. This thesis aims to historicize the way in which ice cores became enrolled into climate discourse, particularly emphasizing the production and representation of temporalities of
