Almost twenty years have passed since the US-led invasion and the overthrow of the authoritarian Taliban regime in a response to the 9/11 attacks on American soil. The goal with the invasion was not only to catch Usama bin Ladin, but also to replace the religious

An increase of cycling is known to increase health, lower gas-emissions and lower traffic-congestion. In cities with a high modal-share of bicycling, a higher quality of life can be measured. “Supercykelvägar” in The Netherlands and Denmark are defined as forming the backbone of the regional cycling-network. Malmö is planning to implement six routes of “supercykelvägar” within the city and the fir
This masters thesis is about the burden of proof and evidence requirement when a conflict occurs between an adviser and a receiver of an advice. The situations I will focus on are tax advices and financial advices. The most important source of information is court decisions, but relevant legislation will also be looked into. From jurisprudence I will find the underlying causes and use them to give
The labor market, and therefore employment conditions, has changed in recent decades. Today, flexibilisation has led to a large number of employees who work part-time or lack permanent employment. An involuntary part-time worker refers to an individual who is working part-time and states that they want to work more hours than what the employer offers. As long as the employer complies with the prov
This thesis will explore the development and influence of human rights protection in the field of direct taxation. Human rights protection in European Union began with the adoption of the Convention for the protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms, but over time with the adoption of the Charter, it has taken a leading role in the EU taxation area. This most significant change in the EU
In this study I explore the field of internal business partnering (IBP) and how IT is utilized in supporting these efforts and in supporting an increased awareness. I furthermore explore what the current limitations of today's technology are, and finally, in addition, study a specific collaborative tool, namely a word processing template, and how this should be developed to maximize communicat
Increasing discontent with the current status of democracy has prompted a renewed interest in Athenian democracy. This article contributes with the first comparative analysis of two political theoreticians – Hannah Arendt and Ellen Meiksins Wood – whose reactivations of ancient political experiences significantly predate recent trends. Despite the fact that Arendt levelled fierce critique against
Background: Women with breast cancer have different chances of surviving their disease, depending on where they live. Variations in survival may stem from unequal access to prompt diagnosis, treatment and care. Implementation of the right to health may help remedy such inequalities. The right to health is enshrined in international human rights law, notably Article 12 of the International Covenant
This paper analyzes incomes and income inequality in Stockholm from 1870 to 1970. The paper builds on a new dataset of 38,022 randomly sampled Stockholm residents 1870–1950, with information on income, occupation, age, gender, and household composition. This is complemented by the Census of 1930 and a Statistics Sweden sample for 1960 and 1970. Incomes were very unequally distributed between 1870
Recent suggestions propose that the glacial landscape in southern Sweden is primarily a relict from the Saalian glaciation (>130 ka). The arguments for this standpoint are the assertion that the majority of glaciofluvial deposits in this region are till-covered, and that wind-abraded clasts are observed at the contact between glaciofluvial sediments and till at numerous locations. Furthermore, it
This paper revisits the development of the canonical Swedish wage bargaining model, from the 1930s to the 1950s. The question at the core of the debate is: how did Sweden achieve “good” wage bargaining institutions -- good, in the sense of facilitating investment, employment, and controlled inflation? The conventional account focuses on the actions of employers and trade unions in export industry,This paper revisits the development of the canonical Swedish wage bargaining model, from the 1930s to the 1950s.

The elastic properties of amorphous TiNiSn, a promising half-Heusler system for flexible and wearable devices, were investigated using experimental and theoretical methods. Nanoindentation measurements performed on amorphous TiNiSn thin film grown by magnetron sputtering yielded an elastic (Young’s) modulus value of 132 GPa. To corroborate this result, density functional theory (DFT) calculations
This paper explores the legal relevance of delusions in determining criminal responsibility. We argue that although delusions may be relevant in assessing capacity for criminal responsibility, the specific content of delusional beliefs should not form the basis for judgments of blameworthiness. The analysis takes the Anglo-American criminal law tradition as its starting point, focusing on the geneThis paper explores the legal relevance of delusions in determining criminal responsibility.
