Uppsatsens syfte var att utreda huruvida kriminalisering av narkotikabruk var att betrakta som godtagbart ur ett strikt rättsteoretiskt perspektiv. Den svenska narkotikastraffrätten har vuxit fram över lång tid, men har under det senaste halvseklet kommit att innehålla strängare straff och vidgat omfång. Länge ansågs kriminalisering av bruk inte vara önskvärt, något som dock skedde i slutet av 19
Ett grustag vid Fiskarheden, som ligger i nordvästra Dalarna, uppvisar tjocka avlagringar av grovkorniga sediment; en sanduravlagring av så kallad Scott-typ som deponerats i en is-proximal proglacial miljö. Preliminära OSL-dateringar av sandursedimenten tyder på att de är av en pre-Saalian ålder (>200 000 år). Av särskilt intresse här är, förutom dess höga ålder pre-daterande det senaste istidsmax
In 2015, Europe faced one of the most extensive refugee flows since the Second World War. The situation forced European Governments to take actions on immigration issues to handle the increasing inflows of asylum seekers. We draw on Meguid’s theory on party strategies to examine whether mainstream parties policies of immigration affects the public support of right-wing populist parties. Simultaneo
The aim of this thesis is to study the flammability and fire spread for textile membranes for weather protection. This thesis includes literature studies to determine current standards and recommendations available. Main focus however have been on the European classification system EN 13501-1 and construction site safety. Two types of experimental tests have been done, cone calorimeter test and te
Media shapes the public´s perceptions of social problems and how we understand the people affected by them. This study investigates the shaping of dual diagnosis, a concept that refers to the co-occurrence of a mental illness and substance use, a phenomena that has gained increased prominence in the last decades. While those suffering from dual diagnosis rarely have their voices heard in research,
Coronaviruset sprids nu över hela världen, vilket skapar utmaningar för både individer och samhället i sin helhet. Pandemin påverkar personer på en psykologisk nivå, även om de kanske inte vet om det själva. Inspirerade av Tversky & Kahnemans (1981) Asian Disease Problem, så syftar den här uppsatsen till att undersöka hur effekten av framing påverkar människors beslutsfattande under en pandemiThe world is currently facing the coronavirus, which causes challenges to individuals, as well as society as a whole. The pandemic affects people on a psychological level, even if they might not know it. Inspired by Tversky & Kahneman’s (1981) Asian Disease Problem; this paper aims to investigate how framing effect in time of a pandemic affects decision making, how this could be linked to fear
Face-to-face fundraising is a method used for raising money by having fundraisers working on public spaces. Fundraisers either ask for one time donations, or sign up people to give on a monthly basis, in this thesis the focus is on the latter. For this method to be useful all fundraisers must meet their target goal, meaning that they must get a certain amount of sign ups when they work. By using d
Compassion fatigue is often used interchangeably with burnout and secondary traumatic stress in literature. There is, however, theoretical support for considering compassion fatigue as a separate condition. The aim of this pilot study was to create a compassion fatigue scale and examine its relation to burnout and secondary traumatic stress as well as to explore how descriptive variables affect le
The aim of this study was to describe and analyze the social workers’ experiences of the organizational change in social service caused by the outbreak of the Covid-19 virus. This has in turn created a stressful and a demanding environment for the social workers. Thus, it is of highly importance to examine the social workers’ reactions and experiences to this change. The study has done so by mainl
The rise of Business Intelligence (BI) have received attention the last years from both IS re-searches and organizations. Research gaps in BI literature indicates a need to cover BI educa-tion from a country specific context, a graduate student perspective and to review the skillset and domain knowledge for BI professionals. This thesis aims to cover those gaps by exploring the prerequisites for a
De flesta har säkert ätit en korv med gurkmix någon gång. Men de flesta har säkert inte vet är hur gurkmix produceras och att man ständigt strävar efter att förbättra produktionen. En sak som man har undersökt är om energiförbrukningen kan minskas. När man går i en matbutik idag finns det en uppsjö av hel och halvfabrikat att köpa av alla olika slag. En sak som i princip alla dessa produkter har g
Juvenile delinquency has become an obvious and recurring issue in the daily debate and emerges as one of the most controlling and dominant societal problems. There are various reasons why people choose to commit crime and there is no easy answer to the question why young people commit crime. A fundamental but crucial distinction to be made regarding crime is the difference between deviant acts and
Förslaget om att införa anonyma vittnen i Sverige har fått större medialt utrymme på senaste tiden. En anledning är den grova gängkriminaliteten, och utsattheten hos vittnen, som av många antas vara ett resultat av den. Några debattörer uppger eller antyder att de tidigare motsatt sig tanken om anonyma vittnen men att den nya situationen med gängkriminaliteten har ändrat deras uppfattning. Uppsa
Den här uppsatsen har utrett huruvida det i arbetslivsdirektivet samt diskrimineringslagen stadgade förbudet mot åldersdiskriminering utgör hinder för vissa svenska kollektivavtalsbestämmelser som stadgar särskilda lönevillkor för ungdomar mellan 16 och 19 år, det vill säga de så kallade ungdomslönerna. I korthet innebär förbudet mot åldersdiskriminering att lön som huvudregel ska bestämmas utifr
To dissect the genetic architecture of blood pressure and assess effects on target organ damage, we analyzed 128,272 SNPs from targeted and genome-wide arrays in 201,529 individuals of European ancestry, and genotypes from an additional 140,886 individuals were used for validation. We identified 66 blood pressure-associated loci, of which 17 were new; 15 harbored multiple distinct association sign
Whilst life cycle assessment (LCA) boundaries are expanded to account for negative indirect consequences of bioenergy such as indirect land use change (ILUC), ecosystem services such as water purification sometimes delivered by perennial bioenergy crops are typically neglected in LCA studies. Consequential LCA was applied to evaluate the significance of nutrient interception and retention on the e
