Korruption handlar om att på ett otillbörligt sätt påverka beslutsprocesser i samhället för egen eller annans vinning. Denna uppsats behandlar mutor ur ett civilrättsligt perspektiv. Bakom varje fullbordad muttransaktion mellan en givare och en tagare föreligger ett mutavtal. Denna muta kan i sig ha påverkat uppkomsten av ett annat avtal, huvudavtalet, som i sig inte är en muta men som inte hade kCorruption is about unduly influencing the decision making processes in society for one´s own or somebody else´s gain. This paper deals with bribery from a private law perspective. Behind each completed bribe transaction between a transmitter and a receiver there is an agreement. This bribe itself may have influenced the emergence of another contract, the main contract, which had not been establis

Syftet med mitt arbete har varit att kartlägga dynamiken för inlandsisen i undersökningsområdet på och sydväst om Söderåsen i Skåne från senaste glaciationsmaximum (LGM) till deglaciationen. Mest fokus har lagts på att identifiera och tolka glaciala landformer från höjdmodeller och jordartskartor. Området omfattar Söder-åsen, Helsingborgsryggen och Ängelholmssänkan. Dessa tre områden har olika geo

Av den svenska befolkningen är det ca 15 % som lider av födoämnesallergi. Små mängder av ett allergent ämne kan orsaka allvarliga konsekvenser. Därför har alla livsmedelsföretag i Sverige ett lagstadgat ansvar att producera allergensäkra livsmedel. Otillfredsställande hantering av allergener vid de olika produktionsstegen kan ligga till grund för allergenkorskontaminering. Goda grundförutsättninga

The field of Conceptual History is often criticized for considering only a small slice of the historical vocabulary it intends to historicize. What about the discourse of the silenced, working at home, robbed of a pen? Concepts are indicative of many contexts of meaning: in this thesis, therefore, propelled by the foregoing question and statement, it is argued that the main protagonist of German,

Möjligt miljö- och hälsofarliga ämnen i smink PFAS är samlingsnamnet på en stor grupp icke-naturliga fluorbaserade ämnen som bland annat fick stor uppmärksamhet när dricksvattnet i Kallinge visade sig vara starkt förorenat. På grund av sina användbara egenskaper används ämnena i en stor mängd produkter, både i hemmet och inom industrin. Samtidigt har forskning visat att flera PFAS är giftiga och

The number of low-cost particulate matter (PM) sensors available on the market has increased in recent years. They are affordable, compact and require no maintenance which means they easily can be deployed and utilized for real-time air monitoring. However, the accuracy of low-cost PM sensors has been reported to vary depending on several factors. This thesis aims to investigate and reduce errors

Feministisk utrikespolitik har sedan 2015, då utrikesminister Margot Wallström deklarerar denna inriktning, varit ett diskussionsämne inom den svenska utrikes-politiken. Uppsatsens analys genomförs med målet att åskådliggöra skillnader i hur regeringarna framställer kvinnor, hur de inkluderas och vilka rättigheter de har i de utrikespolitiska debatterna 2008 och 2015. Syftet med undersökningen är

De senaste decennierna har allt fler aktörer pekat på att utveckling och rättigheter är starkt sammankopplade och därmed börjat anamma olika former av en Right Based Approach(RBA) till utveckling. Brist på utveckling kan ha sin grund i diskriminering. En grupp som halkat efter och som är strukturellt underordnad är kvinnor. En världsdel med hög andel fattiga är Afrika. Där finns det också en feminThe last 20 years diverse actors such as states, NGOs (Non-governmental Organizations) and IGO:s (Intergovernmental organizations) have adopted a Right-based Approach to Development(RBA). The main reason for adopting this approach is since development and rights are inter-connected. Discrimination is one cause for lack of rights and poverty. One group in an extra vulnerable position in poverty and

This thesis explores the relation between gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) and gastrointestinal symptoms and dysmotility. In primary Sjögren’s syndrome (pSS), a patient group with high levels of GnRH antibodies, associations between objective signs and symptoms of autonomic dysfunction (AD), impaired gastric emptying (IGE), and inflammatory and serological features were studied. Forty-three

Immune cells play paradoxical roles in cancer progression. On one hand, the immune system protects us against tumor development by recognizing and eliminating cancerous cells. On the other hand, tumor-associated immune cells can contribute to tumor progression by secreting growth factors as well as immunosuppressive, pro-angiogenic and/or pro-metastatic mediators. In this thesis we identified a f

The life-threatening disease of malignant melanoma is one of the fastest growing forms of cancer, affecting an estimated number of 200,000 patients worldwide every year. Although highly curable if detected early, once the melanoma has metastasized there are few treatment options and a median survival rate of only 6-9 months. Consequently, there is an imperative need to identify the factors that dr

Bleeding complications range from 0.5 to 1.6% in connection with central venous catheter insertions but are more frequent in patients with bone marrow failure and severe thrombocytopenia. Although supportive evidence is scarce, prophylactic platelet transfusion is sometimes performed in these patients before catheter insertion. Furthermore, the ideal threshold platelet count and timing of transfus

The large protein family called G Protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) has co-evolved with life throughout evolution; from single cell organisms all the way to complex beings such as us humans. The fact that GPCRs are involved in essentially every physiological event, and that ~50% of drugs on the current market are either directly or indirectly targeted towards the function of GPCRs, we can be certa

This thesis is motivated by an increasing degree of unfamiliarity and prominence of national dimensions in multinational crisis management. The research rationale rests on the argument that trust is important but may erode when roles conflict, which in turn may result when stakeholder interests diverge. The thesis describes trust and national perspectives in terms of role conflict in an EU Operati

Background: Few studies have compared self-reported criminal behaviour with high-quality databases of criminal offences and judicial sanctions. Self-reported problems from drug abusers are generally believed to be valid. We assessed the validity of self-reported theft, drug offences and prison sentences from a five-year follow-up of female substance abusers who were originally treated in a compuls
