Slipp allvarliga konsekvenser av rökning – med rätt gener Kronisk obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL) är en av världens främsta dödsorsaker. Mer än 200 miljoner människor tros lida av KOL och antalet som utvecklar sjukdomen ökar för varje år. Av all världens rökare utvecklar ungefär 20% KOL under sin livstid.

Skillnader i kultur mellan länder är sedan länge väldokumenterade (Hofstede, 1998). I en allt mer globaliserad värld där det blir vanligare att personer flyttar mellan länder har det blivit aktuellt att studera huruvida dessa personer “akulturaliseras” (Berry, 2003), alltså anpassar sig kulturellt, till sin nya hemmiljö. I denna studie undersöks huruvida personer från ett land som Hofstede (1998) Differences in culture between countries have been well documented (Hofstede, 1998). But in an increasingly globalized world, where it becomes ever more common for people to move between countries, it has become more relevant to study whether these people "acculturise" (Berry, 2003), thus adapting culturally, to their new home environment. In this study, it is examined whether people fro

Sammanfattning Religionsfrihet är en grundläggande mänsklig rättighet och har ett vidsträckt skydd i såväl nationell som internationell rätt. Rätten att utöva och ge uttryck för sin religion kan dock begränsas. I situationer då religion kolliderar med arbete kan intressemotsättningar mellan olika aktörer uppstå. Vid en bedömning i en sådan intressemotsättning kan det vara svårt att avgöra gränsernAbstract Freedom of religion is a fundamental human right and has extensive protection in both national and international law. The right for an individual to express and exercise religion is however limited. In situations where religion collides with labour and working life contradictions between different actors can arise. When assessing such contradictions, it may be difficult to determine the b

The most extreme subgenre of metal, black metal, is famous for its anti-Christian and Satanic aesthetics.
