I början av 90-talet skulle europeisk flygtransport förändras för evigt. Marknaden avreglerades och flygbolag registrerade inom EU kunde nu röra sig fritt inom medlemsstaternas gränser. Detta gav nya bolag möjligheten att etablera sig och uppkomsten av lågprisflyg blev därmed verklighet. Utifrån marknadens purfärska regler kunde lågkostnadsbolagen (LKB) skräddarsy sina affärsmodeller för att maxim

Under årens lopp har det gjorts flera randomiserade kontrollerade studier (RCT) som stödjer effekt av VRET (Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy) vid behandling av fobier. Det har verkar dock ha saknats tillräcklig granskning av den övergripande kvaliteten på dessa studier. I den här studien undersöktes forskningskvalitet hos sju VRET RCTs publicerade mellan 2013 och 2019 med hjälp av Cochrane samt Over the years, there have been several Randomised Controlled Trials (RCTs) supporting the effectiveness of Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy (VRET) in the treatment of phobias. However, there has not been enough scrutiny of the overall quality of these publications. In this study, 7 VRET RCTs between 2013 and 2019 were reviewed using Cochrane as well as Öst's criteria for research design. No

The diminishing ice also opens up new water ways for shipping routes and tourism, providing new economic opportunities. This has piqued the i

Social identity theory can be used to analyse group membership, as well as inter and intra relations between the in and out group. In this study, SIT has been used to analyse how a Swedish membership in NATO could affect the Swedish identity. Moreover, SIT has also been combined with fragments from neorealism to better understand how the power balance could change. The study is based on a handful

There is a consensus in previous research that economic sanctions have a low level of effectiveness in reaching objectives. Despite this, economic sanctions are consistently used to reach different international goals.

Som ett resultat av ökad brottslighet inom den kriminella miljön kom det politiskt laddade förslaget att kriminalisera deltagande i och samröre med kriminella gäng. Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda om en sådan kriminalisering är rättfärdigad mot bakgrund av ett straffrättsideologiskt ramverk innehållande principer för kriminalisering. Utredningen görs även mot bakgrund av idén om allmänprevention,As a result of increased crimes in the criminal environment the politically charged proposal to criminalize participation in and association with criminal gangs was presented. This essay aims to investigate whether such criminalization is justified in the light of an ideological framework containing principles of criminalization. The investigation is also carried out on the basis of deterrence, wh

Förbudet mot missbruk av en dominerande ställning i artikel 102 i fördraget om Europeiska unionens funktionssätt är grundläggande inom den EU-rättsliga konkurrensrätten. Ett sådant missbruk kan bestå i att påtvinga någon oskäligt höga inköps- eller försäljningspriser, så kallad överprissättning.
