In recent years a trend of alt-right extremism has taken place globally. While radical right-wing populism (RRP) is also on the rise, events like the Capitol attack during the presidency of Donald J. Trump raise questions about how politics might affect the use of extremist violence. Focusing on racist hate crimes, this paper considers whether radical right-wing populism affects the degree of raci
This thesis utilises an exploratory approach to analyse the system of interactions between the policy-makers of the European Commission’s Directorate General for Energy and different types of stakeholders. This system of interactions is often referred to as the ‘interest system of the EU’ and is largely informed by rational choice theoretical assumptions about the behaviours of policy-makers and s
An extensive body of literature links macroeconomic conditions to mortality and diverse health outcomes in adulthood, but largely ignores the impact on children. Sweden is currently at the verge of an economic downturn, while mental health disorders and psychosomatic problems are the most common health issue amongst children. In this paper, we examine the relationship between business cycles and c
Indico is the main conference event manager where talks in high energy physics are published online. Indico allows to access presentation from conferences, but it does not yet organize them coherently or make them easily citable by others. To solve this, we want to write code for Indico users that saves not only presentations used during conferences but also their metadata. This will make it easie
I ett allt mer individbaserat samhälle, med ett skifte från normer när det gäller levnadssätt till allas unika livsval, ser vi ett ökat behov av boende för olika typer av konstellationer. Kärnfamiljen är inte lika självklar längre, ensamhushållen är fler och separationer är vanligt. Människor kan välja att bli förälder på egen hand och tvåsamhet som en självklarhet ifrågasätts helt och hållet. Vi
The thesis seeks to through institutional theory identify institutional factors that shape the seemingly contradictable behavior of trade unions towards undocumented migrant workers. Using institutional theory, the discussion about trade unions relationship to undocumented migrant workers can be shifted from morality and ideology to a question of possibilities. By comparing trade unions relationsh
Denna uppsats har som syfte att undersöka arbetsmiljöbrottets rättsliga konstruktion och bakomliggande motiv. Uppsatsen avser också att kritiskt granska hur domstolarna förhåller sig till arbetsmiljöbrott som något annat än våld. Det dör ett stort antal personer till följd av arbetsmiljöbrottslighet i Sverige varje år. Med denna uppsats vill jag visa att händelserna trots detta i vissa sammanhang
Studiens syfte var att undersöka unga kvinnors upplevelser av att genom dejtingappen Tinder försöka inleda kärleksrelationer. Urvalet bestod av åtta kvinnor i åldrarna 23–27 år, vilka alla hade använt Tinder i syfte att dejta romantiskt. Datainsamling skedde genom semistrukturerade intervjuer. I studien användes en tematisk analys med fenomenologisk ansats där fenomenet i fokus var romantisk tindeThe aim of the present study was to explore young women’s experiences of attempting to initiate romantic relationships through the dating app Tinder. The sample consisted of eight women between the ages of 23 and 27 years, who all had used Tinder for purposes of romantic dating. Data collection was achieved through semi-structured interviews. A thematic analysis grounded in a phenomenological appr
The subject of diophantine approximation is a classical mathematic problem, as old as it is well studied. There are many different texts describing its connection to more modern areas of study, but few which do so with the aim of exploring the connections themselves. This paper aims to serve as an introduction to diophantine approximation, and to expose some properties common between two dynamical
Depressioner och ångestsyndrom har ökat i hela ungdomspopulationen, samsjuklighet är vanligt vilket ökar behovet av multimodala evidensbaserade behandlingsmetoder. Ett exempel är Unified Protocol (UP) som fokuserar på transdiagnostiska kärnmekanismer vid emotionella störningar. Syftet med uppsatsen var att utvärdera UP i gruppformat för ungdomar med depressions- och ångeststörningar vid en BUP-motDepression and anxiety disorders have increased throughout the youth population, comorbidity is common, which increases the need for multimodal evidence-based treatment methods. One example is the Unified Protocol (UP), which focuses on transdiagnostic mechanisms in emotional disturbances. The purpose of the study was to evaluate UP in group format for adolescents with depression and anxiety disor
Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att beskriva och analysera företagsfaktorer vid redovisning av negativa aspekter i hållbarhetsredovisning. Uppsatsen syftar vidare till att belysa hur företag rättfärdigar negativa aspekter i hållbarhetsredovisning. Metod: Innehållsanalys har använts för att mäta negativa aspekter i hållbarhetsrapporter. För att vår innehållsanalys ska kunna följas upp och replikPurpose: The purpose of this study is to describe and analyse corporate determinants of disclosing negative aspects in sustainability reports. Further the purpose is to shed light on how negative aspects are justified in sustainability reports. Methodology: Content analysis is used to measure negative aspects in sustainability reports. To enable content analysis to be performed in a replicable man
Studien avsåg undersöka hur kontext påverkade eventsegmentering och minnesbaserad, temporal bedömning. Vidare undersöktes samband mellan psykiskt mående och förmåga till eventsegmentering. Ett datoriserat minnestest användes för att utforska hur kontext påverkade upplevelsen av temporal närhet mellan två objekt. Objekten hade tidigare presenterats med antingen samma kontext, två olika kontexter elThe study intended to examine how context influenced event segmentation and memory based, temporal estimation. Furthermore the study explored correlation between mental illness and event segmentation. A computerized memory test was conducted to investigate how the contexts influenced the estimation of temporal proximity between two objects. The objects were presented with either same context, two
In the outskirts of Malmö, Sweden a small population of sand lizard Lacerta agilis resides in a disused shooting range close to the recreation area known as Husie mosse. This species is listed in the national swedish red list as vulnerable and is declining throughout most of northwestern Europe. It is therefore included in The Habitats Directive, a European Union directive which aims to protect th
Mangrove ecosystems constitute a valuable economic resource harbouring a wide diversity of organisms and operating an essential provider of nutrients for adjoining marine ecosystems. The meiobenthic fauna (i.e. small benthic invertebrates) plays an important role in the food chain and has proven to be a useful indicator on environmental stressors within the mangrove forest. This study is conducted
This thesis examines how the performance of a rule based trading algorithm, the Golden Cross Trading Algorithm, and an Artificial Neural Network constructed algorithm, the Long Short-Term Memory, perform against each other and a buy- and-hold strategy, when trading on the equity market. The underlying assets will be nine large American tech companies, all listed on Nasdaq. In order to distinguish
Textbook tasks are a critical part of physics education as they build a wide range of skills necessary for mastering the subject. This study evaluates the nature of tasks in three widely used Swedish high school physics textbooks, focusing on whether they enhance conceptual understanding or are primarily aimed at memorization of facts and procedural use of formulas and physical relationships. The
