This thesis investigates the role states play in promoting and directing a country’s development. More specifically, it is examined, which factors determine differences in state performance and why different types of states form. This is done through a comparative case study of Botswana and Zambia, two southern African countries that after a similar start into independence developed very different
Det är i mötet – idag framför allt det medierade mötet – mellan journalisten och politikern som nyheter om politik uppstår och som vi medborgare bygger merparten av våra uppfattningar om politiken kring. Som en ingrediens i detta möte kan medieträning ha betydelse för vad som sker och sägs. Medieträning som bruk och verktyg är dock ömsom ifrågasatt och kritiserat, ömsom förklarat som nödvändigt i
Improving an inhalation device so that the patient has full control of his health status, is the #1 objective of the project. Being a futuristic project, carried out from a patien's prespective, the ambition is still to perform a realistic industrial design assignment. The project concentrates on aesthetical qualities, as well as matching them with the fundamental functions of the device. Th
The purpose of this thesis was to examine how fasteners for mobile phone housing in metal sheet could be designed. The assignment was defined by Sony Ericsson Mobile Communication and the work was done in close cooperation with them. Sony Ericsson has had metal in their covers before but only as a cosmetic layer, the bearing parts have been made in moulded plastic. The reason to make a cover where
This Master Thesis was carried out in cooperation with BAE Systems Hägglunds in Örnsköldsvik and its purpose is to improve the efficiency of the hydraulic system for the cooling fan drive in the track driven military vehicle BvS10. The efficiency of the pump and motors are summarized using data from the subcontractors and the efficiency of the pipe line system is derived using Bernoulli’s formula
This paper is for understanding the gap between city commercial banks and state-owned banks. In our image, the gap is exsiting for a long time, but how large is large, could it be changed. Through the quantitative analysis using CAMEL rating system, the conclusion is the performance of city commercial banks is wearker than state-owned banks from capital adequacy, assets quality, management, earnin
Vår definition av Aktiva handelssystem är ”Ett datorsystem som, efter fördefinierade variabler, automatiskt köper och säljer värdepapper. Systemet aktiverar köp och sälj – order helt baserat på teknisk analys”. Denna typ av system finns fortfarande inte i de större organisationerna men kan komma att implementeras i framtiden. Frågeställningen är vad som krävs för att göra denna implementering lyck
Power production represents one fourth to one third of all CO2 emissions. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) in one way to approach the increasing problem with CO2 emissions from fossil fuelled power plants. The CO2 is separated, compressed and transported to a final storing site. To allow more efficient transport and to match the pressure of the final storing site, the CO2 is compressed to a superc
The imprint of the European Court of Justice on the European Integration has been historical. The sole purpose of the Court‘s establishment was aimed at faithful interpretations of the legal texts; nevertheless, over the years, the Court has broadened the scope of its authority, and has become an important institutional player of the Union. Under the Court‘s agency, the legal facia of the European
