Denna uppsats undersöker de rättsliga förutsättningarna för att kostnader som syftar till att stärka goodwill genom sponsring, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) eller forskning och utveckling (FoU) kan klassificeras som avdragsgilla enligt inkomstskattelagen (IL). Särskild vikt läggs vid tolkningen av huvudregeln i 16 kap. 1 § IL, där avdragsrätt medges för kostnader som syftar till att förvärThis thesis examines the legal conditions under which expenses aimed at strengthening a company’s goodwill through sponsorship, Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), or Research and Development (R&D) may be classified as deductible under the Swedish Income Tax Act (IL). Particular attention is given to the relationship between the general rule on deductibility in Chapter 16, Section 1 IL and
Swedish environmental, health, and food inspection is heavily decentralised to a municipal level. These municipalities share the same laws and have little authority to write their own policies regarding these subjects. This should logically lead to the de facto policies looking similar from municipality to municipality. However, there could exist other forces that affect the policies from a non-le
Image classification systems have been widely applied in smartphones, industrial inspection, and automated devices. However, in real-world scenarios, existing classifiers often produce inconsistent or incorrect predictions due to factors such as image degradation, inter-class similarity, and model instability, thereby reducing the overall performance of the system. To address these issues and enha
Svenska staten har förlorat mångmiljardbelopp i skatteintäkter årligen på grund av så kallade räntesnurror där företag inom en intressegemenskap lånar pengar. Räntekostnaderna får dras av i Sverige och tas sedan upp av företag i länder som är lågbeskattade eller saknar inkomstskatt för räntor. Skatteverket lyckades inte neka avdrag med hjälp av lagen mot skatteflykt, och därför infördes 2008 ränteThe Swedish state has lost billions of kronor in tax revenue every year because of so-called interest‐stripping arrangements in which companies within the same group lend money to one another. The interest expenses are deducted in Sweden and then reported by companies located in low-tax jurisdictions or in jurisdictions that levy no income tax on interest. When the Swedish Tax Agency could not ref
This thesis examines how Palestinian grassroots resistance in Masafer Yatta, the occupied West Bank, is affected by Israeli military occupation and how this reshapes the emotional geographies of the region. Focusing on space and territory, it analyses how Israeli state and settler strategies of displacement, surveillance and fragmentation are met by Palestinian community practices of Sumud (steadf
Feedback är den mest effektiva strategi en lärare kan använda sig av i undervisningen. Särskilt inom matematiken där elevers prestationer har sjunkit i åratal. I skolan ska elever dock utveckla inte bara ämneskunskaper utan även de sociala regler, normer och som personer. Genom fallstudie granskas hur tre lärare använder sig av feedback och elevernas upplevelser. Detta resulterar i huvudsakligen ä
Donated food is often fully edible, but improper handling can pose risks to food safety. The aim of this study is to investigate volunteers' knowledge of food safety within organizations that handle donated food and to identify areas for improvement without increasing the administrative burden. A qualitative method was used to gain a deeper understanding of volunteers' experiences and perc
This study investigated the relationship between cognitive load, emotional arousal, and gaze aversion using a within subject eye tracking design. 22 participants completed a dual-task paradigm involving a modified Sternberg memory task of varying difficulty while viewing different levels of arousing images from the IAPS database. Gaze aversion, the behavior of looking away from a stimulus, was ope
This study investigated the sustainable extraction of protein from field cress (Lepidium Cam-pestre) press cake, an underutilized by-product of oil extraction from a novel oilseed crop, which is currently being domesticated in Sweden. Field cress is recognized for its resilience in Nordic climates and its potential as a source of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), yet the protein and fibre-rich cake
Svensk rätt erbjuder ett starkt skydd för både barn och arbetstagare. När en förvärvsarbetande förälder placeras på ett HVB-hem tillsammans med sitt barn uppstår dock en rättslig spänning. För dessa situationer finns ingen särskild reglering som tydliggör förälderns rätt till ledighet eller ekonomisk ersättning, trots att frånvaron bygger på ett myndighetsbeslut med barnets bästa som utgångspunkt.Swedish law provides robust protection for both children and employees. However, legal uncertainty arises when a parent is placed in a residential care home (HVB) together with their child. In such cases, there is currently no specific regulation clarifying the parent’s right to take leave from work or receive financial compensation, even though the absence is based on an official decision grounde
Ovarian cancer is the deadliest gynaecologic malignancy, with most patients diagnosed at an advanced stage and facing poor long-term survival. Resistance to cisplatin-based chemotherapy is a major clinical obstacle, yet its proteomic drivers remain poorly defined. In this study, I applied data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry with DIA-NN data processing to analyse one parental and two cis

Användningen av generativ artificiell intelligens (AI) har ökat markant bland universitetsstudenter, men dess påverkan på studenternas självständighet och lärande är ännu inte fullt förstådd. Denna uppsats undersöker hur informatikstudenter använder generativ AI i sina studier, vilka fördelar och risker de upplever, samt hur transparenta de är i sin användning gentemot sitt lärosäte.

The term public archaeology is one that is not widely used in Sweden, often being sidelined in favour of the more popularised word “förmedling” or “mediation”. However, public archaeology can serve as an alternative to accommodate for new perspectives and models for communication with the public. With an increasing emphasis on inclusivity and diversity in the cultural field, attention towards how
