Work-life balance (WLB), especially for female workers is a popular topic being widely discussed in different fields. Yet, there are insufficient studies on how Chinese female workers perceive their own WLB and organizational WLB support. In our research, we hold that WLB is personally interpreted and subjectively perceived. Therefore we conducted interviews with Chinese female workers to explore
Ability to pay is recognized in most Member States as a constitutional parameter to design fair tax systems and foundations of such principle can be found also in EU primary law. However, our investigation, based on the analysis of the ECJ's case law concerning tax benefits related to personal and family circumstances, will demonstrate that ability to pay can't be considered a general prin
De flesta människor både äter djur och bryr sig om deras välfärd. Sedan otaliga år tillbaka har köttkonsumtion varit en stor del av människans kosthållning och har endast blivit ifrågasatt av en liten minoritet som väljer att inte äta kött. Denna uppsats undersöker i en textanalys ordvalen i tre nyhetsartiklar publicerade i Svenska Dagbladet som skildrar matdjur (de djur som föds upp för att använ

A vital phase of the radical innovation process is the first phase, called the Fuzzy Front End. Scholars claim that FFE activities are entailed with much complexity and uncertainty, yet crucial for a company’s compet
This thesis primarily concerns the European Union (EU) value added tax (VAT) exemption for insurance transactions. Due to the negative consequences that exemptions have on the proper functioning of the VAT system and those subject to it, this thesis explores the possibility of adopting the Kiwi taxed approach for insurance transactions. In order to do this, the provisions and functioning of both t
Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera realityserier som socialt konstruerat fenomen ur deltagarperspektiv. I uppsatsen ville vi ta reda på hur tidigare deltagare i realityserier uppfattar sig själva och sin medverkan. Detta har vi gjort genom att gå djupare in på hur de själva anser att de framställt sig i serierna, om deras mediala framställning blivit påverkad av producenterna under och efter dera
Redan innan vi hunnit fram till jobb eller skola så har ett flertal företag överröst oss med olika typer av budskap som berättar vad vi ska äta, hur vi ska lukta och uppföra oss. Men framförallt vilka produkter vi ska köpa för att bli som kvinnan i annonsen (Ekman 1998:91). I den här studien plockade vi isär och analyserade tre av Kellogg’s Special K:s reklamfilmer från tre olika tidsepoker. Syfte
An increasingly heterogeneous demography in society demands for a shift of attitude towards crisis communication. With a population where one in five has got a foreign background it is important that governments and decision makers continuously evaluate the current crisis management plans, and take measures through updates where so is considered to be needed.

The thesis is concerning the VAT treatment of small undertakings in the EU. Both analytic and descriptive writing methods are used to achieve its aim. VAT requires higher compliance costs compared with other taxes. However, the fact that the compliance burden of VAT is highly regressive as size decreases necessitates the special treatment SMEs. In line with this, the current VAT Directive also ex
Studien genomfördes med syftet att undersöka eventuella skillnader i marknadseffektivitet mellan Large-Cap och Small-Cap på Stockholmsbörsen.

Branschen sysselsätter nu fler än traditionella svenska industrier som stål och livsmedel och uttryck som det svenska musikundret har fått ge vika för det svenska modeundret. Den svenska marknadens begränsade storlek gör att de svenska modeföretagen tidigt tvingas utomlands för att bli bärkraftiga och nå öns
