Popular Abstract in Swedish Anhöriga – aspekter på börda, livstillfredsställelse och effekter av stöd. Med en ökande befolkning av äldre och en samtidig minskning av möjligheter till hjälpinsatser inom såväl kommunalt som landstingsstyrd vård och omsorg, kommer många av oss ta hand om äldre familjemedlemmar, släktingar och vänner. Hur kommer detta att påverka oss? Ungefär 20 % av den vuxna befolWith an aging population and a reduction in social services provided by the municipality, a huge majority of us will take care of elderly family members, relatives and friends in need of assistance. How will this affect our lives? Approximately 20% of the adult population in Sweden, mainly middle-aged persons, identify themselves as family caregivers. Many of these caregivers are working and, at

Background: It is well established that drinking alcohol raises the risk of liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma). However, it has not been sufficiently established as to whether or not drinking cessation subsequently reduces the risk of liver cancer and if it does reduce the risk how long it takes for this heightened risk to fall to that of never drinkers. This question is important for effecti

Skiljeförfarande har under de senaste decennierna växt fram till en mycket populär och uppskattad metod för tvistlösning, särskilt bland kommersiella parter. En större partsautonomi, effektivitet och slutlighet har betonats som fördelar jämfört med domstolsförfarande. Samtidigt finns frågor och svårigheter att reda ut. En av dessa aspekter lyftes i samband med att delar av lagen om skiljeförfarand

Placeringen av verksamheter i olika inkomstslag innebär skattemässiga följder för såväl den enskilde idkaren som för statens skattehandläggning och statskassan. Huruvida en verksamhet ska utgöra hobby eller näring är en bedömningsfråga för Skatteverket och, inte så sällan, för domstolarna. Denna bedömning försvåras av att olika sektorer skiljer sig åt i sina verksamhetsutformningar. I denna uppsaThe allocation of activities to different categories has tax implications for both the individual entrepreneur and the state's tax administration and treasury. Whether an activity should be considered a hobby or a business is a question that comes down to judgement for the Swedish Tax Agency and, potentially, the courts. This is complicated by the fact that activities in different sectors vary

Hållbar utveckling är ledordet inom såväl miljöpolitiken som miljörätten, däri inbegrips bland annat bevarandet av biologisk mångfald. Trots det bedöms Sverige bara nå två av 16 miljökvalitetsmål inom utsatt tid. Inom flera av områdena som rör bevarandet av biologisk mångfald och värdefulla naturmiljöer går utvecklingen dessutom åt fel håll. Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda hur rätten kan förändrIn environmental policy, as well as in environmental law, sustainable development is the keyword. To achieve this, preservation of biodiversity is central. Despite this, Sweden is expected to reach only two out of 16 environ-mental quality goals in time. Furthermore, in a number of areas relating to the preservation of biological diversity and valuable natural environments, development is made in

The resources of our earth are limited and need to be managed sustainably. Managing waste is thus a global issue which makes recycling of waste an important part of sustainable resource management. Sweden has come a long way in source separation of waste compared to many other European countries, with recycling techniques and equipment for source separation, in use. However, most studies look at h

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between post merger financial performance and customer reactions on M&As, as well as how the issues of strategic relationships, integration, marketing, and human resources influence these customer reactions. Method: One of the main reasons why M&A research lacks so much of customer reactions is that the methodological main

En fastighetsaffär är för de allra flesta en stor affär, kanske den allra största man gör i sitt liv, och konsekvenserna kan därför också bli stora, både för köpare och säljare. En av frågeställningarna vid ett köp är ansvarsfördelningen mellan köpare och säljare och det finns många rättsfall genom åren där köparens undersökningsplikt vid köp av fast egendom prövas i svenska domstolar. Enligt JordA property transaction is for most people an important deal, and the impact can therefore also be great, both for buyers and sellers. One of the issues of a purchase is the division of responsibilities for errors between the buyer and the seller, and there are many court cases over the years where the buyer's duty to investigate the purchase of property is tried in Swedish courts. According to

This thesis has two aims: The main purpose is to describe and illustrate how a large Ltd. company can use voluntary redundancy as a tool for restructuring. The additional purpose is to challenge the concept of voluntary redundancy trough outlining alternative ways of reaching the intended achievements of the voluntary redundancy programme. The theoretical framework that has been used primarily con

Climate issues are currently of attention in various contexts as changing climate factors affect us in many ways. One of these effects is the influence on the probability and frequency of fires, although other factors, especially anthropogenic ones, also play a role. In the Diyarbakir region, a Kurdish-Turkish province affected by the PKK's conflict (Partiya Karkerên Kurdistan - Kurdistan Work

Forest fires can act as an ecosystem service by providing habitat renewal, controlling pests, and reducing the risk of extreme fires, but can at the same time disturb an ecosystem negatively. Furthermore, forest fires release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, damage property, and lead to health issues. With climate change, forest fires are expected to increase in both frequency and intensity in

Uppsatsen belyser problematiken kring möjligheten för omhändertagna barn att beviljas uppehållstillstånd i Sverige, när barnet inte får det skydd och omvårdnad som de behöver av sina föräldrar. Omhändertagna barn kan beviljas uppehållstillstånd på grund av sitt vård-behov genom 5 kap. 12 § utlänningslagen, men domstolarna tillämpar bestämmelsen väldigt restriktivt. Finns vårdmöjligheter i hemland

This thesis examines how the right of free movement and the borders are perceived and practiced by Europeans, and how they affect the everyday lives of Europeans in the context of the current refugee crisis and Paris attacks. It claims that EU, EEA, CH and the Schengen area constitute a cultural construction within Europe based on inclusion and exclusion, belonging and citizenship. The freedom of

In the early postwar period, improvements in life expectancy in many Western countries made health authorities, health scientists and politicians believe that social differences in mortality converged. The assumption was that inequality, when measured as death rates, was on steady decline, possibly even on the brink of disappearing. The question is then, how far back in time can social differences

With the exponential growth of the World Wide Web, automated subject classification of Web pages has become a major research issue in information and computer sciences. Organizing Web pages into a hierarchical structure for subject browsing is gaining more recognition as an important tool in information-seeking processes. In this thesis, different automated classification approaches, focusing on

With today’s rapid changes in socio-economy and technology, knowledge and learning are critical issues for private and civil service organizations. The needs for competence development range from short informal courses (without ECTS credits) to formal courses at university level (with ECTS credits). This article describes objectives and results of a Leonardo project, eGIS+ that developed and imple

This dissertation deals with analog techniques at both the architecture and circuit design levels for designing power efficient linear radio-frequency (RF) transmitters. The use of nonlinear analog integrated circuits to implement certain critical signal processing functions for the multiplicative feedback and LINC techniques is investigated with the aim of improving the system performance in term

The interest for the design of life environments for persons with dementia is growing stronger among architects, engineers, social scientists and those responsible for housing and health care planning. This development is connected to the enlarged group of people that become afflicted by this disease and to the fact that a safe environment is proved to be very important for their well-being as wel

A central issue in the study of primate communication is the extent to which individuals adjust their behaviour to the attention and signals of others, and manipulate others’ attention to communicate about external events. I investigated whether 13 chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes spp.), 11 bonobos (Pan paniscus), and 7 orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus pygmaeus) followed conspecific attention and led others
