Japan continuously attempts to reinterpret war-renouncing Article 9 while at the same time stressing its devotion to pacifism, most recently through the Legislation for Peace and Security. The new Legislation allows Japan to engage in collective self-defense, which was considered unconstitutional for 70 years. This thesis examines Japan’s legitimization of such change, answering the question; how
This thesis examines the Ethiopian laws governing polygamy in light of international human rights law standards and liberal feminist legal perspective. The international human rights law regime calls for the abolishment of polygamy through general comments/recommendations issued by the CEDAW and ICCPR treaty bodies. The call for abolishment is based on the notions of equality and dignity while pro
This thesis explores the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s reestablishment of disciplinary organs from the central to township/commune levels in the early post-Mao era (1979-1981). It set out to show why such organs came into being and how, with their help, the party attempted to strengthen its infrastructure and adopt specific measures to prevent the abuses of power at the grassroots level. The res
According to the Economic Intelligence Unit's 2017 Democracy Index, less than half of the EU countries are "fully democratic." Consequently, there is a deficiency in compliance to the EU values among the Member States in the EU. In 2016, United Kingdom voted in favor of leaving the European Union. One of the central questions for the EU was the question what was going to happen with
Children used by military groups in armed conflicts are assigned to different roles and activities depending on their gender identities. In this thesis, therefore, the hypothesis put forward is that application and interpretation of the war crime of “using [children under the age of fifteen years] to participate actively in hostilities” (Articles 8(2)(b)(xxvi) and 8(2)(e)(vii) of the Rome Statute

Sveriges regering satte 2011 upp mål om att bli bäst på att utnyttja digitaliseringens möjligheter. Digitaliseringen av bygglovsprocessen har trots det gått långsamt. Bygglovsprocessen idag (2018) är en långsam, dyr och ineffektiv process. Möjligheten att söka bygglov med e-legitimation finns endast hos 30 procent av kommunerna och 60 procent har någon slags e-tjänst ansökan. Ansökningarna innebärThe Swedish government set up a goal in 2011 of making the best use of digitization opportunities. The digitization of the building permit process has, however, been slow. The process of building permits is today (2018) a slow, expensive and inefficient process. The possibilities to apply for building permits with e-credentials is only available in 30 percent of municipalities and 60 percent have
Datorsimuleringar blir ett allt viktigare verktyg för att förstå, utveckla och effektivisera alla sorters processer och produkter i vårt samhälle. Det är ofta svårt att exakt efterlikna verkligheten, och för att göra simuleringarna möjliga används ofta modeller som förenklar verkligheten.In this master thesis computational fluid dynamic simulations of two plate heat exchanger channels have been performed in Ansys CFX. The full geometry of the channels has not been included, the channels were modeled with a flat geometry instead of a corrugated pattern. To account for the effect of the corrugation on the pressure drop, one-time pressure losses and momentum sources were added in the
Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att identifiera ett intervall av optimal förstadagsavkastning för börsintroduktioner på den svenska aktiemarknaden ur ett ledningsperspektiv, samt att undersöka ett antal variablers samband med nämnda optimala förstadagsavkastning. Metod: I studien har en kvantitativ metod med en deduktiv ansats använts för att analysera insamlad sekundärdata. Teoretiska perspekPurpose: The purpose of this study is to identify an interval of optimal first day return for IPOs on the Swedish stock market from the management’s perspective, and to investigate the relationship between the study’s chosen variables and mentioned optimal first day return. Methodology: A quantitative method with a deductive approach has been used to analyze the collected secondary data. Theoret
Collimated Transmission Spectroscopy (CTS) is a technique that is commonly used to study the optical absorption of different media. In this work CTS was used to measure the absorbance of pure raspberry juice in order to investigate how well the fruit content may be determined in a commercially available raspberry fruit drink. Another method, RGB colorimetry, which is a much more available techniqu
This Bachelor’s thesis examines how masculinity is enacted in three different advertising campaigns from the Dutch menswear brand Suitsupply. The material consists of six photos, which are analyzed using visual semiotic analysis based on Barthes’ theories. To categorize the masculinity, theories from Connell, Halberstam and Nordberg are used. Ethnicity, poses, gaze, milieus and class are contribut
This thesis develops a simplified financial network model for an interbank lending system which is then analyzed in terms of contagion when exposed to external liquidity shocks. The aim is to understand how individual institutions and the network structure affect the shock propagation and finding factors that increase respectively decrease the systemic risk of the network. The network structures a

Bakgrund: De finansiella marknaderna har genomgått en enorm utveckling under de senaste tjugo åren och är numera involverade i att skapa nya finansiella instrument. Idag anses organisationer behöva ta ett ansvar för hur de påverkar samhället såväl ur ett ekonomiskt-, miljömässigt och socialt perspektiv. Gröna obligationer är en marknad som har växt kraftigt och man kan undra vad är det för faktore
The number of international students in higher education is steadily increasing, so their experiences in the new environment is a topic gaining more and more interest from academics (Wu & Hammond, 2011). The current research suggests a model for determining international students’ happiness. The determining factors in the hypothesized model are university satisfaction, residential satisfaction
The purpose of this thesis is to show how the Swedish market reacts to the appointment of a new female board member and whether this has a negative or positive affect on the share price in the short term. The theoretical framework complying of the efficient market hypothesis and behavioral finance sets the basis for the hypotheses and analysis. By using data from 120 observations from publicly tra
Build more, build better, and build faster are concepts that more and more people become aware of. Can Construction Management (CM) achieve the right price and quality in a time and cost-effective way? Construction Management is a form of a project delivery method that may occur under different types of construction contracts. The purpose of this survey is to identify the strengths and weaknesses
