En trend i städers arbete för att profilera sig som cykelstäder och uppnå ett hållbart resande är att införa lånecykelsystem av olika slag. I Sverige har de etablerats såväl i Stockholm som i Göteborg och i augusti 2014 invigdes Lunds lånecykelsystem Lundahoj. Därtill planerar även Malmö stad att införa ett lånecykelsystem.

Binära föreningar beståendes av sällsynta jordartsmetallerna och rutenium uppvisar intressanta egenskaper såsom superledande förmåga och intressanta magnetiska egenskaper. För att förstå varför vissa föreningar uppvisar sådana egenskaper är det essentiellt att studera föreningarnas kristallstruktur. I denna rapport undersöks föreningar, i 35-38 at. % Ru regionen, beståendes av praseodym, neodymiumBinary alloys comprising of the rare earth metals along with ruthenium, RE-Ru, have been noted to display superconductivity at low temperatures. Furthermore the alloys display interesting magnetic properties such as anomalies in magnetization measurements below the magnetic ordering temperature. In order to understand how some compounds obtain these intrinsic properties it is vital to investigate

En intressekonflikt föreligger mellan å ena sidan en markägares intresse att bygga i strandnära lägen och å andra sidan det allmännas intresse att bevara orörd natur i strandnära lägen. För att bevara naturen längs stränderna har ett strandskydd införts i syfte att säkerställa allmänheten tillgång till stränder samt att bevara biologisk mångfald. Skyddet innebär bland annat ett förbud mot att uppfThere is a conflict of interest between, on the one hand, a landowner’s interest to build in coastal areas and, on the other hand the public interest in preserving intact nature along the shorelines. In order to preserve nature along the shores, shore protection has been established with the aim to ensure the public access to coastal areas and to protect biodiversity.

The authors Jeremy Carrette and Richard King argues that spirituality has become a subject of commodification (i.e. transformed into a commodity) as a consequence of the growing impact of Neoliberalism in the Western world since the 1980´s. These new forms of spirituality substitute traditional religion in secular societies and often operate with a hidden economic agenda. McDonaldization is a soci

Den främjar en stark statskoncentration med fokus på staters suveränitet. Övervägande del av dagens väpnade konflikter är interna och inte mellan stater som det var förr. Det har satt press på aktörernOne of the most fundamental provisions of international law is the prohibition of use of force between states and it rests on a construction created in the 20th century after experiences of two world wars. It affirms a strong government concentration focusing on the sovereignty of states. Most of today’s armed conflicts are domestic and not between states as it used to be. It has put pressure on
