The writing of Maria Sandel, Sweden’s first female working class writer, is centering on the working class women and children in the major Swedish cities during the first decades of the twentieth century. The moralistic ideal of good character, especially when it comes to sex, that permeates her stories can be traced to the Social Democratic working class movement’s strive to approach the bourgeoi
The subject of this thesis is the interplay between IPR and competition Law regarding standardisation. In reviewing the legal sources in the field the complexity of the process will be enlightened and the question to answer is what mixture that is to be “perfect” in that sense. Focus lies on the risks of “hold-up “ situations where holders of IPR abuse the system in search for higher amounts of ro
Två Stroop-test designades för att studera skillnader vid framplockning av lagrad information som observeras mellan betingelser där de inblandade processerna är automatiska och intentionella. Vidare ville man se hur detta i förlängningen skulle kunna påverka tvåspråkighet. Ett test följde klassisk Stroop-design, det andra ett Reverse Stroop-design. Till skillnad från den klassiska Stroop-testet oc
This thesis critically examines ethnicity matching between children awaiting adoption and prospective adopters and its discriminatory consequences for ethnic minority children under the European Convention on Human Rights. The examination is conducted against the background of the adoption controversy, and the differing views on what is in the best interests of the child. It highlights how the Eur
In this essay, I examine how the author of Hebrews argues in 7:1-10:18 with respect to the Levitical sacrificial cult and its function. Many scholars claim that the author disqualifies and condemns the Levitical cult as ineffective and unsuccessful at the same time as he is building his argument on the cult. This conclusion has led some to question the sustainability of his argumentation. Furtherm
Solen är inte den enda stjärnan med planeter i universum. Sedan 1995, då den första extra-solära planeten upptäcktes, har 770 exoplaneter observerats och fler upptäcks hela tiden. Enligt teorier om hur planeter formas föds gasjättar med cirkulära, vida banor långt från sin stjärna precis som planeterna i solsystemet. Trots detta har många av de observerade exoplaneterna väldigt elliptiska (excentrAccording to theories of planet formation, jovian planets are formed on relatively circular, non-inclined, wide orbits. Despite this, many observed jovian planets are found on tight eccentric orbits. This problem could possibly be solved with multiple-planet systems. A planet in a multiple-planet system is not only affected by the host star but also by the other planets. The interactions express t
The question of environmental protection has lately become essential due to the increased number of polluters and accidents that have occurred in recent decades. The starting point was the Torrey Canyon disaster which happened in March 1967 and exposed the entire international community to a great danger of environmental harm in general and marine pollution in particular. The accident also pointed
Background: Erysipelas is a common infection that often reoccurs, but only a few studies have investigated risk factors for recurrent episodes. How the natural course of events in the infection corresponds to the inflammatory signs is not well described. Objective: The aim of this study was to indentify risk factors for recurrent erysipelas and the possibility to study the course of events
Den kvinnliga kinesiska författaren Bing Xin var en av Kinas mest framstående författare under 1900-talet.

Vid intervjuerna har fokus legat på respekt
In this thesis, I look for the possibilities to claim the right to conscientious objection on feminist grounds under international law to achieve gender equality. As a departure point, this thesis supports the hypothesis that the recognition of the right to conscientious objection on feminist grounds is substantially essential to overcome structural causes of all kinds of violence perpetrated agai
För att kunna genomföra ett EU-direktiv introducerades år 2010 möjligheten för allmän förvaltningsdomstol att, efter ansökan om överprövning, ogiltigförklara ett direktupphandlat avtal. Denna möjlighet har tidigare inte existerat i svensk rätt och har därför i rättsvetenskaplig litteratur beskrivits som ”en mindre upphandlingsrättslig revolution”. Den svenska lagstiftaren har haft möjligheten att In 2010 a new opportunity was introduced in the Swedish legal system after an implementation of a directive from the European Union. -After an application for review, this amendment of the public procurement law provides the administrative courts with the ability to annul directly assigned procurement contracts. This opportunity has not previously existed in Swedish Law and has therefore been desc

The theoretical basis for the thesis is queer theory, with a specific focus on how the heterosexual matrix and
In the context of English marine insurance law, a warranty is a contractual obligation of the assured to perform a certain duty or to ascertain or to negate a certain state of facts. The Marine Insurance Act of 1906 (MIA) further establishes that a warranty must be exactly complied with and does not need to be material to the risk. Where the assured fails to fulfil the warranty, the insurer will b

Recent studies have shown that increased liquidity is perhaps not always strictly beneficial and that high trading volumes can produce trading noise causing increased volatility above that based on fundamentals. This study investigates whether this applies to the Swedish stock market by analyzing dual-class stocks that have the same cash flow rights but different control rights and different tradi
