The BRIC countries have been in a process of fast economic growth for more than a decade and the growth seems to continue. Economic growth is often linked to the use of fossil fuels and the release of greenhouse gases. The accumulation in the atmosphere of greenhouse gases contribute to global warming and the risk for climate change. The objective is to study the impact on global environment of th
Sammanfattning En sedan länge efterfrågad genomgång av de EG-rättsliga konkurrensreglerna inleddes med Kommissionens vitbok den 28 april 1999. Denna så kallade Moderniseringsreform ledde bl.a. till Rådets förordning 1/2003 om tillämpning av konkurrensreglerna i artiklarna 81 och 82 i EG-fördraget. Denna trädde i kraft den 1 maj 2004 samtidigt som tio nya stater tillträdde EU. Den nya förordningen Summary A long-sought review of the EC competition law was initiated with the Commission's White Paper on 28 April 1999. This so-called modernizing reform resulted, inter alia, in Council Regulation 1/2003 on the implementa-tion of the rules on competition laid down in Articles 81 and 82 of the Treaty. The regulation came into force on the 1 May 2004 at the same time as ten new states joined t
This paper makes a comparative analysis on to the legality of unilateral refusal to deal IPR as a dominant undertaking in EU and US. In particular the paper examines the circumstances in which the judicial bodies in EU and United States will be willing to order a mandatory license of IPR under the relevant anticompetition/antitrust policies, such as article 102 TFEU under EU and the Sherman Act se

Som grund för denna uppsats ligger en översättning av delar av första kapitlet i romanen The Children Act (2014) av den brittiske författaren Ian McEwan. Efter en analys av källtexten enligt den analysmodell Hellspong & Ledin har beskrivit i Vägar genom texten. Handbok i brukstextanalys (1997) följer ett avsnitt med överväganden inför översättningen. Där presenteras val av global och lokal öve
Hälsofarliga organiska och oorganiska ämnen blir allt vanligare förekommande i stora städer och på vissa platser i världen har luften varit så förorenad att det inte gått att vistas utomhus på grund av hälsorisken. Utsläpp av oorganiska ämnen som kvävemonoxid och kvävedioxid (NO och NO2) leder i städer med stora luftföroreningsutsläpp, i vissa fall, till lokal bildning av marknära ozon. Marknära o
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to interpret in what ways the core values are expressed in managerial work as well as in what ways these values impact the managerial work in a knowledge intensive firm.

Syfte Syftet med studien är att undersöka om de tre mest använda kändiskategorierna inom marknadsföring kan generaliseras till någon utav de fem dimensionerna av varumärkespersonligheter. Samtidigt vill vi med denna undersökning utreda de olika kändiskategoriernas grad av trovärdighet. Metod En kvantitativ forskningsstrategi och en deduktiv teori har använts i studien som mynnat ut i hypotesformu
The power of play: Play motivates and stimulates true human curiosity and interest. While playing with toys (any object that seems interesting at a given time, intended toy or not), children are taught how to control and get knowledge of things, objects and materials. If the children have learned this in their childhood, they will continue “controlling and understanding them” later in life. When
This thesis aims to investigate the experiences of immigrant lone mothers’ integration into the Swedish labour market.

This essay analyses how Mary Shelley challenges speciesist thinking popular at the time of the publication of Frankenstein (1818). Speciesism is a discriminatory belief that favours the human species over any species other than human, and that is manifested in how we perceive and treat nonhuman beings. Much literary criticism has touched upon Frankenstein’s monster’s otherness, mainly in relation
Inrättandet av marina skyddsområden är en kompletterande förvaltningsåtgärd som i allt större utsträckning används för att skydda biologisk mångfald och hotade arter. I studier av skyddsområdenas effekter tas det sällan hänsyn till konsekvenserna av en bristande efterlevnad av de regler och förordningar som implementerats, trots att bristande efterlevnad rapporterats från skyddade områden i alla dThe establishment of marine protected areas is a complementary management measure that is increasingly used to protect biodiversity and endangered species. Studies of the effects of protecting certain areas rarely take into account the consequences of non-compliance of rules and regulations, despite the fact that non-compliance of protected areas have been reported from all parts of the world.

The studied intrusion, the Hakefjorden Complex on Älgön is a norite-anorthosite complex situated in the archipelago on the west coast of Sweden. The origin of the intrusion will be deduce through in situ Sr-isotope analysis by MC-ICP-MS (multiple collector- inductively coupled plasma- mass spectrometry) on plagioclase, together with petrographic description and chemical analysis. The examined plag

The Primeiras and Segundas Archipelago Reserve, located in the waters of northern Mozambique, is the largest marine protected area in Africa, extending over 200 km of coastline. Despite the region’s importance for the local economic, information on the marine ecosystem, notably benthic habitat, is very scarce. Twelve atolls were mapped in the region using object-based image classification of very-
