Syrian monasticism has often been judged by its extremes, with Symeon the Stylite as the prime example of someone leaving the human world behind to reach for God. In this interpretation, hagiographical renderings seem only to underline an opposition between sacred and civil spheres, between the cells of the ascetics and human society. With this article, however, I wish to call such a conclusion in
Member States of the European Union are not allowed to have tax legislation which restricts the free movement on the internal market. The tax legislation of Sweden prescribes that a national company (the parent company) which holds at least nine tenths of the capital of another national company, (the subsidiary company), may deduct an asset transfer made in purpose to improve the subsidiary's
This thesis explores depolitication as an institutional and discursive phenomenon in the context of Swedish political economy. Although a number of scholars have argued that depolitication is a process that operates on both institutional and ideational levels in politics, existing research has overwhelmingly been occupied with an institutional approach. Building my theoretical framework on two bod
I svensk rätt finns det – utöver en omfattande skattelagstiftning – två huvudsakliga angreppssätt mot sådant skatteundandragande som vanligen benämns skatteflykt. Dessa består av lagen mot skatteflykt samt en praxisutvecklad princip om att beskattning ska ske på grundval av rättshandlingarnas verkliga innebörd – även kallad genomsynsmetoden. På det skatterättsliga området råder ett absolut föreskrSwedish tax law contains – apart from a vast and detailed tax legislation – two main approaches against the type of tax minimization commonly referred to as tax evasion. These are the General Anti-Avoidance Rule (GAAR) and the case law based principle that taxation should be based on the true implications of a transaction. According to the Swedish constitution, taxation may only be conducted if th
This thesis deals mainly with three questions. The first question concerns what lessons concerning the development of 3D printing and its influence on EU copyright protection in accordance with the InfoSoc Directive and EU design protection can be learnt from history concerning the technological developments of digitization of music and the introduction of the InfoSoc Directive. The second questio
Stater sluter skatteavtal för att undanröja dubbelbeskattning. Det är emellertid ett välkänt problem att skattebetalare nyttjar skatteavtalen för att undgå att betala skatt. Sedan år 2003 innehåller kommentaren till OECD:s modellavtal omfattande direktiv för hur staterna ska förhålla sig när någon missbrukar ett skatteavtal. En viktig fråga är om en stat kan neka en skattebetalare avtalets förmåneThe main purpose of tax treaties is to prevent double taxation. However, it is a well-known problem that taxpayers use tax treaties in order to avoid taxation. The commentary on the OECD Model Tax Convention addresses the issue on how states should deal with abuse of tax treaties. A key question is whether or not a state has to grant the benefits of the treaty in these situations. According to the
Ever since the formation of the modern global foreign exchange market in the early 1970s, scholars have sought to develop models that can explain movements in foreign exchange rates. Arguably one of the most popular approaches to exchange rate modelling is the monetary approach, where movements in the exchange rate are modelled through changes in macroeconomic variables affecting the relative mone
In this thesis I have tried to understand this great complexity in architecture, when an oppressive architecture can be considered an architectural masterpiece. This conflict is embodied by Palazzo della Civiltà. Italiana. A monument built with the intentions to host an exhibition celebrating 20 years of fascism, is now 80 years later, rented by the luxury fashion house Fendi due to its mesmerizin
Abortion has long existed in our society and in our history. It has long been prohibited and it has been legal I Sweden since 1934 under the circumstances that the mother’s life was threatened. It took until 1975 to become legal under all circumstances until pregnancy week eighteen. Even if abortion today has been long legal there still exists a stigma around it. My purpose with this study is to
There is only one answer to why we did not have a referendum on applying for NATO membership. The changed security situation in Europe and the clearly changed threat against Sweden that has arisen from Russia's invasion of Ukraine have changed political views on Sweden's security. Sweden, which has been publicly neutral and non-aligned, is now choosing a clear side and requesting entry int
A recurring item on the agenda during my first months as Head of the Department of Physics has been and remains the issue of decision-making. At head of department meetings, leadership training, department and divisional management meetings, it is always there.- Don't be afraid to make decisions, they can change, is a recurring advice.And yes, it is true. New decisions can be made and sometimes th
Written by Alexandra Nikoleris, 15 April 2020 Since the start of my career as a researcher, about 9 years ago, I have been struggling with the notion that what “we” need are optimistic stories of what a sustainability transition would entail. Stories to ensure a common vision, a sense of belonging. I still doubt such “positive” stories will do the trick, not saying experimentation with alternative

Popular Abstract in English Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common, after Alzheimer’s disease, neurodegenerative disease in man. Stiffness in joints, shaky hands, and slowness of movements make it difficult for people with PD to complete normal daily tasks like buttoning up a shirt. Additionally, PD affects memory, mood, sleep and the function of the gastro-intestinal tract. Over time,Parkinson’s disease (PD) is currently the second most common neurodegenerative disorder (after Alzheimer’s disease). PD is diagnosed on its motor symptoms, which include akinesia, bradykinesia, rigidity, postural imbalance and resting tremor. It is well established that the motor symptoms develop due to lack of dopamine in the striatum. This is caused by progressive degeneration of dopaminergic ne
The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a membrane protein group of central importance in the immune system. It is divided into two main classes, class I and class II. The MHCs are highly polymorphic which is believed to be indication of trans-species polymorphism (TSP). There is TSP when an allele is maintained in two species through a speciation event. The songbirds that I study here belon
The existence and staffing of reference desks in academic libraries has been a topic of debate for at least 30 years. As digital library services have grown in significance, some argue that the physical desk no longer serves the needs and wishes of patrons. The use of the academic librarian behind the desk has also been questioned – studies have shown a gain in efficiency when letting student work
Cultural institutions such as museums and art galleries are important agents in educating the broader public on matters where current awareness is missing, inadequate or inaccurate. In this study, I focus on one such matter, which is the knowledge regarding ethnic minorities, their history, traditions, and current challenges. My primary focus is on how cultural institutions utilise their exhibitio
