Under 2022 hade värdepappersinstitutet Avanza över 1.7 miljoner kunder, och ökade antalet kunde med 100 000 det året. För att försäkra sig om att alla aktörer som handlar med finansiella instrument vill fortsätta handla på marknaden, krävs det att de har förtroende för marknaden. För att aktörerna ska ha förtroende för marknaden är det viktigt alla har tillgång till korrekt information så att de iIn 2022, the securities institute Avanza had over 1.7 million customers, which was an increase by over 100,000 customers that year. To ensure that all actors who trade with financial instruments want to continue to trade, it is crucial that they have confidence in the market. For the parties to have confidence in the market, it is important that everyone have access to correct information so that

Legal imagination and the US project of globalising the free flow of data

Today, the US pursues the global capture of data (understood as a significant engine of growth) by way of bi- and plurilateral trade agreements. However, the project of securing the global free flow of data has been pursued ever since the dawn of digital telecommunication in the 1960s and the US has made significant legal efforts to institutionalise it. These efforts have two phases: In the first

Automatic Control of Reactive Brain Computer Interfaces

This article discusses practical and theoretical aspects of real-time brain computer interface control methods based on Bayesian statistics. We investigate and improve the performance of automatic control and feedback algorithms of a reactive brain computer interface based on a visual oddball paradigm for faster statistical convergence. We introduce transfer learning using Gaussian mixture models,

Mobilizing the Rights of Migrant Workers: Swedish Trade Unions’ Engagement with Law and the Courts

Migrant workers, both regular and irregular, are at particular risk of having their rights violated. At the same time, there has been an absence of support for exploited immigrant workers from Swedish authorities and civil society. Lately, a number of trade unions and semi-union organisations in Sweden have developed methods to mobilize the rights of migrant workers experiencing exploitation on th

Improved calibrations of TDR measurements using artificial neural networks

Time domain reflectometry (TDR) has been proven to take accurate readings of the apparent dielectricconstant Ka and bulk electrical conductivity σa. These measurements have been used for estimations ofwater content (θ) and concentration of different chemicals. The concentration of an ionic pollutant ortracer can be estimated from the soil solution electrical conductivity σw. Several different cali

Självbestämmanderätt och god vård - En undersökning om personer med nedsatt beslutsförmåga under förvaltarskap inom hälso- och sjukvården

Personer med nedsatt beslutsförmåga kan till följd av kognitiva nedsättningar inte alltid samtycka till vård. Eftersom det inte finns någon specialanpassad lag för denna patientgrupp har det under flera års tid varit svårt att tillämpa regelverken inom hälso- och sjukvården. Det har tillsatts ett flertal kommittéer för att undersöka möjligheterna att stifta ett anpassat regelverk. Detsamma gäller People with reduced decision-making capacity can not always consent to care as a result of cognitive impairments. Because no specially adapted law for this patient group exists, it is difficult to applicate the current legal framework within the Swedish health care system when caring for such individuals. A number of committees have been appointed to examine the possibilities of establishing an ad

Intermarriage Pattern Among Swedish Immigrants In the US in 1900 and 1910

Intermarriage patterns are often referred to as a step in the social assimilation. However, previous research on is ambiguous in its result concerning differences in intermarriage pattern between genders. According to the theory intermarriage patterns are both influences by preferences and opportunities. This thesis conducts a conditional fixed effects logistic regression to analyses the intermarr

Skyfall – från en reaktiv till en proaktiv planeringsprocess

Våra städer är otroligt sårbara för skyfall. Skyfallen som drabbade Köpenhamn 2011 och Malmö tre år senare blev en ögonöppnare för många. I vår artikel presenterar vi resultaten från en intervjustudie där flera nyckelpersoner i Sverige, Danmark och Norge har fått besvara frågor relaterade till skyfallshantering. Den generella uppfattningen hos de som intervjuats i denna studie är att det saknas st

The impact of indigenous culture and business group affiliation on corporate governance of African firms

Research Question/Issue: This is a study of the relationship between business group ownership and constituent firms' adoption of Anglo-American shareholder value governance in African firms at the undertaking of an initial public offering (IPO). Research Findings/Insights: We find business group ownership to be associated with lower Anglo-American corporate governance adoption by constituent firms

Modelling and analysis of key enablers of digital transformation in food SMEs using ISM and MICMAC approach

The food business in India is the backbone of the country, meeting the fundamental human need of food for a large portion of the country's population while also exporting it to other countries. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) account for the major share of total food production, even though they lack the necessary technological infrastructure and operating standards. Due to COVID-19 cris

ORDERING HUMAN–OTHER RELATIONSHIPS : International Humanitarian Law and Ecologies of Armed Conflicts in the Anthropocene

This chapter analyses the international humanitarian legal ordering of human and other relationships during armed conflict and disaster by looking at two examples, namely the ‘natural’ environment and human-scientific constructed AI-powered swarms of drones. Drawing on these examples, as well as post-anthropocentric and posthuman legal scholarship, the authors argue that International Humanitarian

Taxation in Africa since colonial times

This chapter focuses on taxation in Africa since 1900. Using existing data and insights from the literature, the chapter documents taxes collected by colonial and post-colonial states, exploring what was taxed, the types of taxes, the tax revenue patterns and the socio-political contexts shaping taxation policies. It begins by discussing the fundamental principles of taxation and forms of direct a

Health impact assessment and climate change : A scoping review

Climate change has various adverse impacts on public health, ranging from heat-related illness to an increased risk of undernutrition in low-income countries. Health impact assessment (HIA) has been advocated as a valuable tool to systematically identify and quantify the effects of climate change on public health and to inform and evaluate the impact of disease-specific adaptation measures as well

Combined solar and membrane drying technologies for sustainable fruit preservation in low-income countries – prototype development, modelling, and testing

This investigation consisted of developing and evaluating solar dryers together with semi-permeable membrane pouches for drying juicy fruits in low-income tropical countries. Two design iterations were carried out including prototype modelling and testing. The latest developed solar dryers were a passive and an active solar dryer. Modelling was initially carried out mathematically using an equatio

The Influence of Treatment Latency on Suicide-Specific Treatment Outcomes

IntroductionThe Attempted Suicide Brief Intervention Program (ASSIP) provides an effective and cost-effective treatment option for people who have attempted suicide. Studies suggest that longer treatment latency is associated with poorer response to therapy, more severe symptomatology, and more suicide attempts This study examined the influence of treatment latency (time between suicide attempt an
