Using discourse analysis as a theoretical and methodical point of departure, this paper strives towards analyzing the ways in which the Swedish tax on air travel is being made understandable. Through examining how this is done on two occasions in contemporary Swedish politics, it further aims to capture how the arguments in favor of a tax have developed and changed over time. Drawing on Maarten H

Det har i doktrin hävdats att underrätters rättstillämpning i mål rörande beskattning av oredovisade intäkter inte uppfyller de krav på rättssäkerhet som ställs i skatteprocessen. I denna uppsats utreds huruvida så är fallet. De frågeställningar som uppsatsen bygger på är vilka krav som ställs på rättssäkerhet i skatteprocessen, hur beskattning av oredovisade intäkter sker, vilken bevisbörda och vIt has been claimed in literature that the application of the rules about taxation of unreported income by Swedish administrative courts is insufficient from a legal certainty perspective. This essay considers whether this is the case. The essay is centered around the following questions: What are the requirements regarding legal certainty in the tax procedure? How is unreported income taxed? Who

The main aim of this thesis is to connect the theoretical concept of Hybrid Warfare, with the Russian military doctrine, and the historical deception concept of Maskirovka, in a case study, analysing the Russian annexation of the Crimea peninsula in 2014. Hybrid warfare has been an intensely debated topic, where a good many scholars claiming it to be neither an entirely new concept, nor a helpful

Denna uppsats har haft som utgångspunkt att i två tonårsterapier, KBT och Relationell korttidsterapi, via observatörskattningar av terapisamtal uppdelade i korta sekvenser undersöka huruvida följsamhet till metod bidrar till utfall av depressionssymtom vid nästkommande samtal, huruvida hantering av alliansproblem bidrar till utfall av depressionssymtom vid nästkommande samtal och hur följsamhet ocThis study compared two types of therapies, CBT and Brief Relational Therapy, as applied to teenagers with depression. The comparisons were made in order to analyze whether adherence to the therapeutic method and handling of problems within the therapeutic alliance affects the extent of depressive symptoms, and in what way adherence and alliance interacts with each other in the therapeutic methods

Den svenska lagstiftningen saknar idag en samvetsklausul som ger hälso- och sjukvårdspersonal en möjlighet att åberopa samvetsfrihet i arbetslivet. En sådan klausul skulle innebära en möjlighet för barnmorskor att kunna välja att inte delta i bland annat abortvård. Yrkesverksamma barnmorskor i Norge har idag denna möjlighet genom den så kallade reservationsrätten. Det råder delade uppfattningar krThe Swedish legislation currently lacks a conscience clause that enhances opportunities for religious professionals to choose which professional obligations to engage in. For example, such clause can consequently allow midwives to not chose to participate in abortion care. This example is currently demonstrated in Norway where midwives are conceded to obtain a right to reserve certain obligations.

A recurring argument in scholarly literature is that the EU is suffering from a democratic deficit in which its institutional legitimacy is being questioned by the public. To remedy this issue and gain public legitimacy, the EU has over the last 20 years developed a public communications approach to engage citizens in European affairs and to create a European public sphere. However, the EU has not

Education is considered a key component in the empowerment of women, and policy interventions such as investments in education can be effective in reducing gender- based inequality. To investigate the relationship between such a policy intervention and empowerment, this study investigates the impact of a large school construction program in Indonesia, where over 61,000 primary schools were constru

Skyddet för immateriella rättigheter prioriteras högt av lagstiftaren eftersom det anses vara viktigt för samhällsutvecklingen. Den illegala fildelningen på nätet har medfört nya utmaningar för det upphovsrättsliga skyddet, särskilt eftersom identifiering av intrångsgörare blir allt svårare med dagens teknik. Mot bakgrund av detta infördes en möjlighet för rättighetshavare att få information om oiThe legislator accords the protection of intellectual property a high priority. It is considered essential for society's progress, as it is conducive to innovation and investment. The illegal online file-sharing has brought on new challenges for copyright protection, particularly as identifying infringers is becoming increasingly challenging with today's technology. Therefore, a legal fram

De senaste decennierna har sett omfattande kriminalisering av terroristbrottslighet. De flesta av de terroristbrott som har införts i svensk rätt är ett resultat av internationella och EU-rättsliga förpliktelser. Oftast har dessa kriminaliseringsåtaganden inneburit att gärningar på väldigt tidigt förberedande stadium har kriminaliserats. Det senaste i raden av dessa brott, samröresbrottet, kriminaThe last couple of decades has seen extensive criminalization of terrorist crimes. Most of the terrorist crimes that have been implemented into Swedish law are a result of international obligations and obligations derived from membership of the European Union. Mostly, these obligations have meant criminalizing conduct that is very remote from the harm it seeks to prevent. Thus, these crimes have a

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

To limit global warming to 1.5°C, concerted efforts to drastically reduce GHG emissions by 2030 are needed. Lund municipality has ambitious climate goals for 2030, however, high emissions from transport and especially private car use endanger their achievement. Building on transition management, this thesis aimed at supporting Lund’s climate goals by developing a knowledge base for the implementat

Food insecurity is increasing globally again after declining for decades, and in Nigeria alone 13 million people are experiencing food insecurity. Particularly in North-East Nigeria food insecurity has reached emergency levels. Because of intrastate conflict between the Nigerian state and Boko Haram it has been difficult to mitigate food insecurity, even though Nigeria ranks in the top ten in worl

Civil wars continue to prevail, and the number of causalities increase in the last decade, while socioeconomic disparities within countries steadily widen in many parts of the world. Yet, the understanding of the potential correlations between these two trends remains incomplete. This thesis aims to probe this relationship by studying what effect socioeconomic inequality has on conflict intensity.

While violent conflicts are perceived to be the primary driver of food insecurity globally, the degree to which people are affected by both violent conflicts and food crises vary greatly, mainly depending on gender, age and socio-economical position. With this as a background, the aim of this thesis is to investigate how FAO and the WFP address gender dimensions of food insecurity in their humanit

Syftet med uppsatsen är att genom mina frågeställningar besvara hur Rysslands användning av telekrig i Ukraina förändrat NATOs syn på sin egen förmåga på grund av ryska det telekrigshotet. För att göra detta använde jag mig av textanalys i form av en idé analys. Resultatet av analysen visar att det finns en övertygelse bland författarna till de rapporter som användes att Rysslands telekrigsförmåga

For modern large scale cloud services a fast and reliable anomaly detection is of utmost importance. Traditionally developers perform simple keyword search, for keywords such as "error" or "fail" in the log data, one of the main data sources that depicts the state of the system. In today’s large-scale systems however several TB of log messages can be output every day making man

Vid ATLAS-experimentet på forskningsanläggningen Large Hadron Collider vid CERN i Schweiz kan det som mest ske runt en miljard partikelkollisioner per sekund. Den data som produceras utifrån dessa tillåter fysiker att studera de mest grundläggande egenskaperna och beståndsdelarna hos och i naturen. Den modell som idag beskriver dessa är den så kallade standardmodellen. Även om denna har verifieratData compression methods allow more data to be stored within a certain storage framework while still keeping the characteristics of the data in question. At the Large Hadron Collider on the grounds of CERN in Switzerland, limited data storage capability is and has always been an urgent problem. At the ATLAS experiment, one technique which allows researchers to save more data within the same storag
