The impact of socioeconomic factors on adult and under-five mortality is a subject which has been widely discussed. However, one cannot say the same when it comes to the impact of religion on mortality, and in fact, most of the existing literature has focused on the impact of religious participation on disease-specific mortality among adults. The purpose of this paper was to examine the impact of
Synnerligen grov misshandel är en brottstyp som introducerades i svensk straffrätt år 2010, detta efter att regeringen uttryckt att straffskärpningar behövdes då man inte ansåg att de utdömda straffen var proportionerliga i förhållande till brottets allvar. Flertalet fall har sedermera hamnat i HD och hovrätterna och en praxis har skapats kring vad brottet innebär. Stort fokus läggs på hänsynslöshExceptional aggravated assault is a crime which was introduced to Swedish criminal law in 2010. The reason behind this was the fact that the Swedish government believed that harsher punishments were needed due to the fact that they were not proportional in comparison to the seriousness of the crime. Regarding what is to be considered as exceptional aggravated assault, the courts tend to focus on t
Following a macroeconomic stabilization and consistent economic growth during the 2000s, Brazil experienced a continuous decrease on poverty incidence for the first time in its contemporary history. While the literature emphasizes the importance of economic growth alongside social development to fight poverty, the Brazilian experience also displays strong government action through expanding social
Tjänster från naturen - viktiga att värna vid planering av städer Vare sig vi vet det eller ej gynnas vi människor av funktioner som naturen fyller, vilka kan kallas för ekosystemtjänster. Medvetenheten om detta verkar förhållandevis hög i ett antal skånska kommuner. Av sex undersökta kommuner omnämner fem uttryckligen dessa tjänster i sina strategiska planeringsdokument och samtliga ger på ett eEcosystem services (ES) is an up-and-coming concept which refers to benefits humanity gets from functions provided by natural systems. Investigating how cities have embraced the ES concept within their urban planning is important in order to be able to assess the awareness of human dependence of nature’s functions and the potential of the ES concept to increase this awareness. In this study, plann
Det svenska laglottsinstitutet brukar kritiseras med jämna mellanrum, men trots kritiken har det varit i stort sett oförändrat under 160 år. I min uppsats kommer jag att titta på vilka filosofiska och historiska grunder laglottsinstitutet bygger på. Den svenska arvsrätten byggde länge på ett system med arvejord, jord som man hade ärvt, samt avlingejord, jord som man själv hade förvärvat. Friheten The Swedish statutory share of inheritance (Swedish “laglott”) is often criticized, but it has remained largely unchanged for 160 years. In this essay I will explore which historical and philosophical bases the law builds on. The Swedish inheritance law built for a long time on a system of inherited soil (Swedish “arvejord”), and soil which you had acquired yourself (Swedish “Avlingejord”), where
Effekterna av mikroplaster är ännu inte helt utredda och därför kan de vara mycket farligare än vad vi vet idag. Plastpartiklarna kan finnas överallt i miljön och en hittills outforskad spridningskälla är deponier och dess lakvatten. Det har inte undgått allmänheten att större plastskräp, det vill säga makroplaster, både förfular samt förstör natur och miljö. Mindre plastskräp, så kallade mikropAlthough most microplastics (<5 mm in length or diameter, depending on shape) are not visible they can be found everywhere in the environment. The effects can be devastating and much greater than what has been proven so far, as there is a lack of knowledge about the impact, spread and extent of microplastics. The Swedish EPA published a report in June 2017 which reveals a number of major microplas

När jag under min utbildning varit ute på praktik och vikarierat har jag flera gånger stött på begreppet konstnärligt uttryck. Jag har alltid tyckt det var svårt att förstå exakt vad ett konstnärligt uttryck innebär. Därför föddes idén till denna studie om att prata med verksamma sånglärare inom gymnasieskolan och ta reda på mer om hur de jobbar med det konstnärliga uttrycket. Syftet med denna stuWhen I have done internships and worked as a substitute during my education I have come across the term artistic expression several times. I have always had a hard time understanding exactly what an artistic expression means. That is where I got the idea to talk with active singing teachers in upper secondary school to find out more about how they work with the artistic expression. The purpose wit
Brottet kontakt med barn i sexuellt syfte kallas även för grooming. Grooming kriminaliserades i Sverige år 2009 och i Storbritannien år 2004. Grooming är ett brott där förövaren, som är en vuxen person, kontaktar och lär känna målsäganden, som är ett barn, för att möjliggöra sexuella över-grepp. Förövaren genomför groomingprocessen för att bygga upp en relation till och vinna tillit hos barnet. DeThe felony, contact with a child in sexual purpose, is also called grooming. Grooming was criminalized in Sweden in 2009 and in Great Britain in 2004. Grooming is a felony where the perpetrator, who is an adult, get in touch with and get to know a child with the intention to sexually abuse the child. The perpetrator is using grooming to build a relation and gain trust with the child. It is rather
It is unclear how telomere-binding protein TPP1 interacts with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and influences cervical cancer development and progression. This study included all eligible 156 cervical cancers diagnosed during 2003-2008 and followed up through 2014, 102 cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) patients, and 16 participants with normal cervix identified at the same pe
This study investigated the impact of a national palliative care policy introduced in 2013. The hypothesis was that end‑of‑life and palliative care policy shape healthcare services, which in turn influence service utilisation and ultimately place of death for people dying from cancer. The aim was to identify longitudinal trends in place of death for people with cancer in Sweden. A population‑level
Introduction: Comorbidities and public health conditions in haemophilia are receiving increasing attention. Aim: To analyse the prevalence of comorbidities and mortality in people with haemophilia (PwH) compared to matched controls in subgroups (factor consumption and sex). Methods: This study used longitudinal individual-level data (11 years) from national registers in three Nordic countries (Den

Mass media is becoming more and more personalized and despite common ideas it could actually be a good thing. Instead of affecting the actual content of news coverage it might only have an effect on the way in which news are presented. Famous politicians more regularly become symbols and synonyms for their parties or for the government and are being used to create interest in the beginning of arti
This paper is an examination of the European Security and Defense Policy (ESDP) and its impact on the EU as an actor in international security. The ESDP, far from being irrelevant, allows the EU to assume a meaningful role in the areas of civilian and military crisis management, albeit on a smaller-scale. In the multipolar, post-Cold War world, it is increasingly important for the EU to be able to
This study examined if individuals act in a less discriminating way and in a more fair way when they receive instructions about justice and not being discriminating while recruiting. 96 randomly assigned students at the University of Lund participated in this study. The participants were informed that they would act as a recruiter. They would then choose and place three of the best personal record
The European Union's long-term budget negotiations during the summer of 2005 were obstructed from being successful due to a quite fierceful debate about the future guidelines of the Common Agricultural Policy. A quarrel about money and who gets what, was the common answer as to why it took the European leaders six months to accept the budget, and quite rightfully. This essay, however, goes ben
This paper presents a pilot study investigating the development of declarative memory in infancy, by creating a stimulus material appropriate for recording Event-Related Potentials (ERPs) during memory encoding. The material was designed to establish associations between pictures, and a negative component with a fronto-central distribution (Nc) was studied as a reflection of learning. In addition
