The benefits of economic growth (e.g. capital accumulation) are mainly being enjoyed by people in the Global North, while its negative byproducts (e.g. pollution) are mainly being endured by people in the Global South. Our focus on economic growth has led to the erosion of social wellbeing. And continuing economic growth on this planet with finite natural resources could have even more severe cons

This thesis analyses the evolution of the Japan-EU and Japan-NATO bilateral relationships over the last two decades from the Japanese point of view. I used the International Relations theories of Realism, Liberalism and Constructivism to explain why and how these actors engage in cooperation. Thus, I tackled various topics such as trade, security, defence, technology, norm-making, and ideology. T

Background Starting in the 1960s, a broad-based patients’ rights movement began to question doctors’ paternalism and to demand disclosure of medical information, informed consent, and active participation by the individual in personal health care. According to scholars, these changes contributed to downplay the biomedical approach in favor of a more patient-oriented perspective. The Swedish non-p

This article deals with the active safety of a automobile and how to make use of microwave radar sensor to detect and anticipate a threat in the sensor’s field of vision.

Implementation of the Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS), a political tool intended to increase investment in renewable energy, has become increasingly common in the early 21st century. RPS policies require that a certain amount, or percentage, of electricity in a providers electricity supply mix is generated from renewable energy sources. The distribution of renewable energy generation capacity d

Inom svensk arbetsrätt är (SFS 1982:80) lagen om anställningsskydd den centrala lagstiftningen som reglerar anställningsform och hur en uppsägning får ske. Arbetstagaren har turordningsreglerna i 22§ Lag om anställningsskydd som skydd och i det anciennitetsprincipen (senioritetsprincipen), då arbetsgivaren anfört arbetsbrist inom verksamheten som uppsägningsskäl. Turordningsreglerna har varit In Swedish labor law (SFS 1982: 80), the Employment Protection Act is the central legislation that regulates the form of employment and how a termination may take place. The employee has the rules of priority in section 22 of the Employment Protection Act as protection and in the seniority principle, when the employer cites lack of work as a reason for termination. The rules of priority have been

Den ryska invasionen av Ukraina har orsakat ofattbart mänskligt lidande och har destabiliserat den europeiska säkerhetsordningen. I gengäld har världsledare och internationella organisationer krävt att den ryska aggressionen beivras. Den rättsvetenskapliga debatten om lämpliga åtgärder för att säkerställa straffrättsligt ansvar för aggressionsbrottet har emellertid uppvisat stor oenighet bland forThe Russian invasion of Ukraine has brought immense suffering to the Ukrainian people and has destabilised the European security order. In response, world leaders and international organisations have called for the prosecution of the Russian aggression. However, the scholarly debate on the appropriate measures to ensure criminal accountability for the crime of aggression has demonstrated widesprea

Climate-related security risks (CRSR) have risen on the foreign policy agenda of the European Union (EU). As climate change accelerates, its impacts exacerbate existing social, economic, and environmental challenges within and between communities and increase the likelihood of states experiencing humanitarian crises and conflict. These so-called climate-related security risks (CRSR), or climate-se

Digitalisation and its effect on the circular economy have been a major debate. Thus, this study investigates the possible contributions of Digital Business Models (DBMs) toward the Circular Economy (CE) by utilising circular economy core values through its multiple dimensions. Following a qualitative approach, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight participants in the retail sector.

In an era of globalization, where decision-making transcends national boundaries, it is crucial to recognize the importance of individual participation in shaping the international legal sphere. This recognition becomes even more critical in the 21st century, as we are faced with the need to respond to global challenges and emergencies that demand the collaboration of diverse actors. The inclusive

While AI is evolving at an unprecedented pace, the legal frameworks of countries around the world still struggle to find the appropriate answer to uniformly deal with AI-related issues. This master thesis would like to discuss one of the legal perspectives that AI technology has drawn attention to recently - its relationship with copyright law. The main point of the thesis is to answer whether im

In this study, over 2000 Milky Way stars were analyzed in the [Mg/Mn] vs [Al/Fe] chemical plane to identify accreted stars. The Milky Way's faster star formation enriches disk stars with iron-peak elements such as Mn and reduces alpha elements like Mg. Accreted stars, originating from slower star formation rate environments, exhibit lower metallicities, reflected in lower [Al/Fe]. The study ev

This thesis aims to analyze the significance of the nickel ore export ban for Indonesia in the context of the global political economy, considering Indonesia's status as a Middle-Income (MI) country seeking to advance its economy. Drawing upon dependency theory and World System Theory (WST), Indonesia is assumed to transition from an MI country to a core economy by halting the export of raw ma

The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the digital skills that are important for accountants in order to stay relevant in the era of digitalization. In addition, the research has two sub-purposes. The first sub-purpose is to study the digitalization-related training. Secondly, the thesis aims to explore the accountants’ opinions on the challenges associated with the digitalization in th

After more than a century of colonial subjugation by the United States, Puerto Rico’s stunted development model has finally collapsed. As a result, the island is currently facing one of the worst economic crises in its history. Despite the United States’ continued affirmation of its political dominance over Puerto Rico, it has largely placed the blame for the crisis on Puerto Ricans themselves, ac

Assessment of the fire behaviour of sandwich panels is continuously under discussion. The fire behaviour of these panels is a combination of material characteristics such as the core material and mechanical behaviour of the panels such as joints, dilations etc. The use of small or intermediate scale tests can be questioned for such types of products. Within the proposed European product standard

Human dUTPase, expressed in Escherichia coli, has been crystallized. Single crystals were obtained by the vapour-diffusion technique using 2-propanol and PEG 4000 as precipitants. The enzyme was co-crystallized with the substrate dUTP and a metal chelator EDTA to prevent hydrolysis of the substrate. The crystals belong to the orthorombic space group P212121 with cell dimensions a = 67.51, b = 68.2

Using the protection for exporters theory the thesis analyzes the EU’s quest for world markets in the case of trade negotiations with Singapore. The protection for exporters theory assumes governments to shift bias from the import competing sector to the export competing sector when exporters are exposed to potential losses. The thesis concludes three main findings of why the EU shifted policy tow

This paper consists of a case study of the recent relative success of the populist radical right-wing party, the Sweden Democrats, in the municipality of Malmo in the southern region of Scania in Sweden. Seven explanatory factors behind radical right-wing party success in Western Europe were selected to be analyzed as they applied to this case. The chosen economic explanatory factors were; post-in
