EU rules on sustainability reporting - A study of the initiatives regarding transparency and disclosure from a Swedish perspective

Making Europe climate neutral by 2050 is the primary goal of the European Green Deal. This goal has given rise to sustainable finance and action plans for financing sustainable growth. Such commitment is ensured by the legal initiatives put forward by the Commission. The Non-Financial Reporting Directive introduced the requirements for some firms to produce a sustainability report based on disclos

Urban or else? A combined method analysis of the discourse of the Swedish state during the years 2018-2020 on the choice situation of rural youths to move or remain

The rural-urban divide is a long-established construct in sociology. More recently, the choice of rural youths to remain or move to an urban setting has attracted substantial research interest. One factor surrounding the choice situation of the youths consists of officially sanctioned norms in the form of the discourse of the state, in particular on the three key terms rural, urban and youth. The

Detention of Non-Citizens Suspected of Future Terrorist Crimes: A study of the relationship between preventive security detention in Swedish immigration legislation and fundamental principles of justice and the rule of law

Uppsatsen undersöker hur förvarsbestämmelserna i lagen om särskild utlänningskontroll (1991:572, härefter LSU) förhåller sig till rätten till frihet och säkerhet, oskyldighetspresumtionen samt legalitetsprincipen. Detta syftar till att utreda huruvida lagstiftningen utifrån ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv är en lämplig åtgärd för att förhindra terrorism. Uppsatsen syftar även till att placera LSU i eThe thesis examines the relationship between the detention regime in the Special Controls of Aliens Act (SFS 1991:572, SCAA) and the right to personal liberty and security; the presumption of innocence; and the principle of legality. The aim is to assess whether the legislation is a suitable counter-terrorism measure from a rule of law perspective. The thesis also aims to place the SCAA in an inte

Understanding the emergence of AI innovation in Sweden: The role of old National Champions

Artificial intelligence is a topic that receives large amounts of interest from all parts of society as it promises to have a wide impact on all parts of society ranging from the ways people work and live, to the economy and progress to the sustainable development goals. Following from this, the technical prospects of AI innovations, and their potential for societal impact have received a lot of s

Greenhouse Gas Emissions Reduction in the Heavy-Duty Transport Sector - A Case Study of Renewable Energy Carriers in Sweden

Den svenska transportsektorn står för ungefär en tredjedel av landets totala utsläpp av växthusgaser och släppte 2019 ut 16,4 Mt CO2-ekvivalenter. Av dessa står den tunga vägtrafiken för cirka 20 % och är efter passagerarfordonen den största källan till utsläpp av växthusgaser inom sektorn. I och med FN:s klimatpanels återkommande rapporter om klimatförändringen och den Europeiska Unionens nya kli

A Nonlinear Reservoir Model to Simulate Blue-Green Stormwater Systems – An Application to Augustenborg Catchment in Malmö, Sweden

The increasingly rapid urbanization has led to vast impervious surface areas in the urban environment. This situation of impervious surfaces has increased the surface temperature and interrupted the natural water circle, which has negatively impacted the urban environment. Human activities' continuous greenhouse gas emission has contributed to global climate change, which has caused some atmos

A Method for Evaluating and Mapping Terrestrial Deposition and Preservation Potential- for Palaeostorm Surge Traces. Remote Mapping of the Coast of Scania, Blekinge and Halland, in Southern Sweden, with a Field Study at Dalköpinge Ängar, Trelleborg

Studier av palaeostormfloder ger bakgrund till inom vilka intevall stormar av olika storlek förväntas återkomma och träffa olika områden. Denna information kan användas vid modellering, riskbedömning och stadsplanering. Genom att använda de marina ekvationerna av Nittrouer och Sternberg (1981; The formation of sedimentary strata in an allochthonous shelf environment: the Washington continental sheStudies of palaeostorm surges provides background into at what frequencies storms of different magnitudes are expected to return and hit different areas. This information can be used when modelling, doing risk assesments and city planing. Using the marine equations of Nittrouer and Sternberg (1981; The formation of sedimentary strata in an allochthonous shelf environment: the Washington continenta

Risk Perception and Protective Behaviours Regarding COVID-19 Among Pregnant People in Sweden

Few have been left unaffected by the outbreak and consequent impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. One group of people, namely those pregnant during the pandemic, faced a unique set of circumstances that this research has aimed to understand. The purpose of this research was to contribute to filling the knowledge gap by delving into the risk perception and protective behaviours adapted by pregnant peop

Interacting with Foreign Industrial Clusters - A Case Study of Swedish Companies in Japanese Clusters

Clusters, agglomerations of companies in related industries, are a phenomenon which have been widely accepted to increase the productivity of its constituent companies. Many scholars hold the view that companies should utilise these favourable conditions and interact with clusters. Nevertheless, there exists limited literature on the topic how companies can interact with clusters outside of their

Challenges Faced by Opportunity Entrepreneurs, The Case of Syrian Refugees in Sweden

The recent immigration crisis is a topic of interest for many researchers nowadays. Although refugees represent the biggest number of immigrants in Europe, researchers tend to comprehensively tackle immigrant entrepreneurship and neglect refugees' distinctiveness. This qualitative study explores the phenomenon of refugee entrepreneurship and its common challenges based on multiple case studies

Psychological Safety, Work Engagement and Staff Retention in Swedish Home Care

With an aging population, the need for elderly care is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. One challenge associated with this growth is hiring and retaining home care workers. The aim of this study was to investigate factors in the psychosocial work environment that may be of value to make people stay in elderly care. There are several factors at play, however the present study foc

Modeling wind-induced currents in lake Bolmen, Sweden, using TELEMAC 2D

Transport and material intermixing within lake systems have a significant impact on lake water quality. However, since researchers are primarily concerned with biological, environmental, and ecological aspects, physics and hydrodynamic behavior in lake water currents frequently receive less attention. The results of several wind-induced current circulation scenarios in Lake Bolmen with its complic
