Many models explain the development of firms focusing on the firms’ resources and the industry that surrounds them, and do not explicitly incorporate the role of the capital market and the owners. A need for a theoretical framework that includes all three aspects was therefore identified. The framework was constructed and tested against an empirical material comprising of the development of Persto

The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the current debate concerning the removal of the statutory audit for SMEs in Sweden. In order to fulfill the thesis purpose a qualitative research approach was used along with triangulation methods. As the basis of the thesis lies in the government report SOU 2008:32 and the official comments to this report, interviews were held with key persons which
Den svenska integrationspolitiken står inför en strukturomvandling då de delar av flyktingmottagandet som handlar om arbetsmarknadsetablering flyttar från flyktingmottagande kommuners ansvar till den statliga myndigheten Arbetsförmedlingen. Genom en intervjuundersökning med tjänstemän inom integrationsområdet i fyra olika skånska kommuner tittar denna uppsats närmre på hur implementeringsberedskap
Human development index (HDI) is a summary measure used around the world that indicates whether a country is developed, still developing, or undeveloped. HDI incorporates the main factors of human life such as health, education and income. Deprivation in these areas of human life is measured by calculating human poverty index (HPI). The purpose of this thesis is to find the human development index
The aim of this study was to examine employees at both voluntary and municipal protective shelters, concerning their view upon freedom and control. The study was limited to include young women, who have been exposed to honour-related violence. The purpose was also to examine the opinion of the staff concerning the women’s experience of these terms. The questions at issue were: What do the staff me
NMD3 is required for nuclear export of the 60S ribosomal subunit in yeast and vertebrate cells, but no corresponding function of NMD3 has been reported in plants. Here we report that Arabidopsis thaliana NMD3 (AtNMD3) showed a similar function in the nuclear export of the 60S ribosomal subunit. Interference with AtNMD3 function by overexpressing a truncated dominant negative form of the protein la
This study analyzed direct and indirect relationships in water consumption by Macedonian economic sectors using virtual water in an input–output framework. Macedonia was found to be characterized by intensive water consumption, with some sectors having a significant virtual water content in their products. Virtual water multipliers were used to analyze the trade balance and determine whethernation
Background: Sierra Leone is a low income country in West Africa that has a history of conflict. Sierra Leone have signed and ratified the Convention of Rights of Persons with Disabilities.Aim: To evaluate persons with disability that use prosthetic and orthotic assistive devices access to human rights. The addressed areas were; right to health, right to a standard of living adequate for health, ri
In a population-based, matched, case-control study from southern Sweden of 571 patients with a first diagnosis of cutaneous malignant melanoma and 913 healthy controls aged 16-80 years, the association between sunbed use and malignant melanoma was evaluated. A total of 250 (44%) cases and 372 (41%) controls reported ever having used sunbeds. A significantly elevated odds ratio for developing malig
Deciding the optimal project scope that fulfills the needs of the most important stakeholders is challenging due to a plethora of aspects that may impact decisions. Large companies that operate in rapidly changing environments experience frequently changing customer needs which force decision makers to continuously adjust the scope of their projects. Change intensity is further fueled by fierce ma
Problem Efter det senaste decenniets framträdande av ett alltmer CSR- uppmärksamt samhälle har företag i en större utsträckning aktivt börjat arbeta och integrera CSR i sina verksamheter. Ny forskning visar på att CSR kan ha en påverkan på ett företags börsvärde. (www.newsdesk.se) Det finns dock inga klara bevis på hur CSR åtaganden påverkar mindre bolag såsom de listade på OMX small cap. Att dett

Vår uppsats syftar till att studera förutsättningarna för ett nätverkssamarbete mellan Helsingborg och Helsingör i konferensbranschen och om en destination kan vinna på ett konferensamarbete. Kärnan i uppsatsen utgörs av en studie av konferensaktörer i Helsingborg och Helsingör.
Adjuvant treatment of nonmetastatic high-risk renal cell carcinoma is an unmet medical need. In the past, several tyrosine kinase inhibitor trials have failed to demonstrate an improvement of disease-free survival (DFS) in this setting. Only one trial (S-TRAC) provided evidence for improved DFS with sunitinib but without an overall survival (OS) signal. Keynote-564 is the first trial of an immune
This document is the final report of the ATLAS-CMS Dark Matter Forum, a forum organized by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations with the participation of experts on theories of Dark Matter, to select a minimal basis set of dark matter simplified models that should support the design of the early LHC Run-2 searches. A prioritized, compact set of benchmark models is proposed, accompanied by studies of t
Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP) is a rare peritoneal malignancy, most commonly originating from a perforated epithelial tumour of the appendix. Given its rarity, randomized controlled trials on treatment strategies are lacking, nor likely to be performed in the foreseeable future. However, many questions regarding the management of appendiceal tumours, especially when accompanied by PMP, remain unans
We report on measurements of a charge-dependent flow using a novel three-particle correlator with ALICE in Pb-Pb collisions at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and discuss the implications for observation of local parity violation and the chiral magnetic wave (CMW) in heavy-ion collisions. Charge-dependent flow is reported for different collision centralities as a function of the event charge
