Nytt mandat för Riksbanken? - Rättsliga utmaningar och juridiskt övervägande med anledning av Riksbankens e-krona projekt
Sedan januari 2017 bedriver Riksbanken ett projekt vars syfte är att utreda huruvida digitala kontanter vore ett lämpligt komplement på den svenska betalningsmarknaden. Inom ramen för Riksbankens projekt kallas dessa digitala kontanter för e-kronor. Eftersom en övervägande andel av svenska betalningar redan idag görs elektroniskt kan det framstå som obegripligt varför Sverige alls skulle vara i b
Depositional history of the Neoproterozoic Visingsö Group, south-central Sweden
De neoproterozoiska sedimentära bergarterna i Visingsögruppen är en av få kvarvarande spår från den här tidsperioden i Sverige. Tack vare dessa har vi en möjlighet att förstå hur landskapet såg ut under denna tiden. De olika miljöfaktorer som påverkade sedimenten när dessa deponerades är nyckeln till att kunna måla en större bil. Det vi ser i Visingsö-gruppen är hur en lokal, förhållandevis grund,The Neoproterozoic sedimentary rocks of the Visingsö Group are one of few remaining rocks from this time. They provide a vital clue to understanding how the landscape looked at this time. The various environmental factors that prevailed and affected deposition are key to paint a bigger picture. The Visingsö Group shows how a local, fairly shallow, environment is subject to a long-term transgressio
Determinants of Stock Price Volatility: A quantitative study on the Swedish stock market between 2004-2016
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om utdelningars utbetalningsgrad, vinstvolatilitet, storlek och hävstång har någon inverkan på aktiebolagets volatilitet. Vidare syftar denna uppsats till att undersöka huruvida dessa samband är tillämpliga på både Large Cap-företag och företag som listas på Mid och Small Cap. Teorierna bygger på rådande teorier i området, bland annat Bird in the hand hypThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate whether Payout ratio, Earnings volatility, Size, and Leverage have any effect on the volatility of the stock. Furthermore, this thesis seeks to investigate whether these relationships apply to both Large Cap firms and firms listed on Mid and Small Cap. The theories are based upon prevailing theories in the area, among them Bird in the hand hypothesis,
The Woman Was Raped - A Critical Discourse Analysis of Swedish News Media Coverage of Rape and Sexual Assault
Departing from the question of how linguistic representations of sexual crime are connected to social practices around sexuality, this discourse analysis looks into 30 news articles on sexual crime to identify discourses around male and female sexuality. As most sexual crimes are committed by men and against women, the analysis focuses on connecting discursive descriptions of men and women in rela
Mass Emigration and Political Change: Evidence from Historical Swedish Elections
Migrants do not only affect the societies in which they arrive. When people leave in large numbers, their absence will also have indirect consequences for the societies from which they left. Between 1860 and 1930, 1.4 million Swedes emigrated abroad, most of them settling in the United States. In this essay I look at how this historic migration episode, in which a quarter of the population left th
Zircon U-Pb constraints on the timing of Sveconorwegian migmatite formation in the Western and Median Segments of the Idefjorden terrane, SW Sweden
Det Västra segmentet och Mediansegmentet i Idefjordenterrängen omarbetades under metamorfos och migmatitbildning under den Svekonorvegiska orogenesen (ca. 1 Ga), men det råder fortfarande oklarheter kring tidpunkterna för dessa händelser inom och mellan de två segmenten. Denna studie visar att Svekonorvegisk metamorfos och associerad migmatitbildning inte är samtida i Västra segmentet och MedianseThe Western and Median Segments of the Idefjorden terrane have been metamorphosed and migmatized during the Sveconorwegian orogeny (ca. 1 Ga), but the timing of these events between the two segments remains unclear. Here I show that Sveconorwegian metamorphism and associated migmatite formation is not coeval between the Western and Median Segments and that there is a contrast between the segments
The Road to Meaningful Engagement with the Sustainable Development Goals: The State of Integration of the Sustainable Development Goals in Large Swedish Companies

Stratigraphy, sedimentology and geophysical assessment of the early Silurian Halla and Klinteberg formations, Altajme core, Gotland, Sweden
Altajmeborrkärnan togs upp i närheten av Buttle centrala Gotland 2015. Projektet är ett resultat av en internationell borrkampanj mellan geologiska institutionen vid Lunds universitet och Iowa universitet, USA. Borrningen gick ned till den underliggande ordoviciska lagerföljden på ett djup av ca 330 m. I denna masteruppsats har karbonatsedimentologin och gamma ray-loggen från de översta 137 m av bThe Altajme drillcore was recovered from near Buttle in central Gotland in 2015. The core was drilled in outcrop belt of the late Wenlock (Silurian) Klinteberg Formation as a result from an international drilling campaign between the Department of Geology at Lund University and Iowa University, USA. The coring continued to the top of the underlying Ordovician strata at a depth of ca 330 m. In this
The Charging Network Experience - Factors affecting the user experience of the electric vehicle public charging network in Sweden
The electric vehicle public charging network has been suggested as a major challenge hampering the further adoption of electric vehicles. Little research have applied a user perspective when investigating the charging network, and there is a knowledge gap concerning what affects the charging network experience of electric vehicle drivers. The area of research was limited to include electric vehicl

Iron and Aluminum leaching from peatland soils in Southern Sweden – Effects on benthic macroinvertebrates
Giftigt lakvatten skadar småkryp Vattnet är turkos-färgat och innehåller giftigt höga halter av metaller, så småningom fälls metallerna ut och bildar en orange sörja som lägger sig som en kvävande filt över allt i vattnet. Livet är inte lätt för vattenlevande småkryp i Fredriksdalsviken. En rejäl översvämning år 2007 i Kristianstad fick missfärgat vatten att välla ut över strandängarna i naturresThe leaching of metals caused by drainage of peatland soils was, in Scania, brought to attention after a flood in Kristianstad 2007. The flood caused large areas of wet meadows to be covered in iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al) contaminated water and one of the affected areas was Fredriksdalsviken, a nature reserve important as a breeding area for birds. The negative effects of these metals on macroinve
Updating on Housing Wealth and Consumption in Sweden
Using the most recent data from 1996 to 2016, I examine the more current relationship between housing wealth and private consumption. I extend the Life-Cycle Hypothesis and separate wealth into housing wealth from financial wealth. The main method em-ployed is the Engle-Granger two-step method. Combined with the use of quarterly data, the method allows investigation of the long-term and short-term

Evidence for genetic selection of the filaggrin gene FLG in occupational groups with toxic skin exposure – a study of Swedish hairdressers and chimney sweeps
Bestämmer genetiken hur väl frisörer och sotare klarar av sina jobb? Frisörer och sotare är två yrkesgrupper med hög exponering för kemikalier som kan tas upp genom huden. Huden har en inbyggd skyddsbarriär som ska förhindra att skadliga ämnen tas upp i kroppen. Ett viktigt protein i hudskyddsbarriären är filaggrin. Den här studien visar att frisörer och sotare skiljer sig i antalet bärare av sk

Reclaiming Eco Assemblages - Emphasis on ecosystem resilience in human-oriented urban design in Varvsstaden, Malmö, Sweden
Many cities are facing the problem of old industrial areas whose soil has been contaminated with toxic substances created by different historical activities within the area. The great unsolved environmental problems, such as: water, soil and air pollution prob- lems, and habitat loss in the Öresund region today, are a result of the industrialization era. “Reclaiming Eco-Assemblages” lays out a m
