Increasing issues related to agriculture are being identified. To counter these issues, some type of methods of agriculture are being introduced and reintroduced, such as agroecology. With its focus on practices, sciences and social movement, agroecology is considered as a promising solution to bring a paradigm change to agriculture as we know today and to provide better quality food, produced in
Denna uppsats undersöker hur domstolar bedömer ansvarsfrihet enligt 24 kap. 7 § brottsbalken vid sexuella handlingar där våld förekommer inom ra-men för BDSM. Fokus ligger på att analysera vad som krävs för att ett sam-tycke ska vara giltigt i rättslig mening samt vilka gränser som finns för vad man får samtycka till, särskilt med hänsyn till skadans art och omständighet-erna kring gärningen. UndThis thesis examines how Swedish courts assess criminal liability exemption under Chapter 24, Section 7 of the Swedish Penal Code in cases involving sexual acts with elements of violence within the framework of BDSM. The focus is on analyzing what is required for consent to be legally valid and where the legal limits are drawn regarding what one may consent to, particu-larly with respect to the na
Klimatpåverkan och dess effekter är ett högaktuellt ämne för alla branscher och industrier särskilt för bygg- och fastighetsbranschen som år 2021 stod för 22% av utsläppen av växthusgaser i Sverige (Boverket, 2024a). Visserligen har det skett en minskning av utsläppen för branschen sedan 2008 men behovet av att bygga nya bostäder är stort samtidigt som byggkostnaderna i Sverige blir dyrare och dyrThe impact of climate change and its effects is a current topic for all industries, especially the construction and real estate sectors, which accounted for 22% of greenhouse gas emissions in Swedenin 2021 (Boverket, 2024a). Although emissions from the sector have decreased since 2008, the need for new housing is significant, and construction costs in Sweden are rising more and more every year. T
As the threat from the climate crisis becomes ever more apparent and shows few signs of stopping alternative development models become interesting. Driven by an interest of examining such alternative solutions, this paper studies degrowth due to it being a challenging alternative to currently applied growth-based models of development that see progress as linked to economic growth. This paper exam
Awareness of the climate impact of the construction industry is increasing and demands for improved measures are needed to reduce the climate footprint. By year 2045, Sweden should have zero net emissions of greenhouse gases. From January 1, 2022, a climate declaration is required for the construction of new buildings, the purpose of the climate declaration is to reduce the climate impact of the c
Overheating in buildings is becoming a major concern and cause for various health issues. Existing research and previous studies on the issue were examined to acquire relevant information about the definition of overheating, its possible causes, and the heath impacts it could have on human health. The review included data on the current status of thermal comfort and overheating regulations in Swed
Inom den svenska straffrätten uppfattas traditionellt individen som autonom, fri och rationell. Enligt den amerikanska professorn Martha Albertson Fineman bör däremot individen i grunden betraktas som sårbar. Ett område inom svensk straffrätt där frågor om sårbarhet och autonomi ställs på sin spets är sexuellt utnyttjande av beroendeställning. Området var tidigare reglerat som sexuellt utnyttjandWithin Swedish criminal law, the individual is traditionally understood as autonomous, free and rational. However, according to American Professor Martha Albertson Fineman, the individual should be seen as fundamentally vulnerable. A legal area within the Swedish criminal law where questions about vulnerability and autonomy come to a head is sexual exploitation of a position of dependence. This
Japan’s influence in Southeast Asia has been enormous throughout history, whether in its military occupation, culture, or economic ties, and there is no doubt that Southeast Asia has developed under its influence. Have Southeast Asian states then developed and improved their human rights situation because of Japan? Or has Japan aggravated the situation being “blue washed”, by performing its busine
Synen på alkoholmissbruk har skiftat genom tiderna. Till en början sågs missbruket som en samhällsfara där lösningen var att isolera individen från övriga samhället. Detta synsätt skiljer sig från det nuvarande där det finns ett samhällsintresse för en arbetstagare som lider av alkoholmissbruk för att denne ska få tidiga stödinsatser och förhoppningsvis med hjälp av dessa åtgärder kvarbli i arbetsThe perception of alcohol abuse has evolved over time. Initially, abuse was seen as a societal threat, with the solution being to isolate the individual from the rest of society. This perspective differs from the current approach, where there is a societal interest in supporting an employee suffering from alcohol abuse through early interventions, The aim is to support the employee to remain in th
The blade tip region encounters high thermal loads because of the hot gas leakage flows, and it must therefore be cooled to ensure a long durability and safe operation. A common way to cool a blade tip is to design serpentine passages with a 180 deg turns under the blade tip-cap inside the turbine blade. Improved internal convective cooling is therefore required to increase blade tip lifetime. Pin
Under år 2010 genomfördes en lagändring rörande den svenska bestämmelsen i BrB 4 kap. 1a § avseende människohandelsbrottet. Ändringen föranleddes av att problematik avseende bestämmelsens tillämpning och effektivitet hade uppmärksammats. Inom ramen för den utredning som tillsattes med anledning av detta identifierades fem problemområden avseende människohandelsbestämmelsens utformning; i) användanIn 2010, a legislative amendment was passed regarding the Swedish Penal Code provision in chapter 4 article 1 a, regarding human trafficking. The amendment was induced after problems concerning the effectiveness of the provision that had been observed. Within the proposal from the appointed committee in response to this, five problem areas was identified; i) the use of improper means, ii) the word
De provokativa åtgärderna är en polisiär arbets- och utredningsmetod, vilken traditionellt beskrivs som att polisen i sitt brottsbekämpande arbete lockar fram beteenden från en enskild brottsmisstänkt, i form av yttranden eller handlingar, som kan vara ofördelaktiga för vederbörande. De provokativa åtgärderna har använts inom den polisiära verksamheten en längre tid, trots avsaknad av lagregleringProvocative measures can be described as a an investigation method, whereas the police entices to behaviour through expressions or actions, which in some aspect are unfavourable or disadvantegous for the provoced person. Provocative measures have been used as an investigation method by the Swedish police for a longer time, even though no legislation legitimizes or regulates its usage. The uncertai
I Sverige finns ett antal webbplatser som samlar in offentliga handlingar och tillgängliggör dessa genom en söktjänst. Internetanvändare kan genom en sådan söktjänst, ofta efter erlagd betalning, till exempel se om någon förekommer i en fällande brottmålsdom. Webbplatserna är grundlagsskyddade genom utgivningsbevis. Möjligheten att ansöka om utgivningsbevis finns sedan 2003 genom en bestämmelse i In Sweden, there are a number of websites that collect public documents and make them available through a search service. Internet users can use such a search service, often after paying a fee, to find out, for example, whether someone appears in a criminal conviction. The websites are protected by a publishing license, a possibility that has been included in the Swedish Freedom of Expression Act
Concerns are growing within the field of development as global democracy rates decline. As a solution to how to rebuild democratic systems is currently unclear, this thesis looks at the case of Colombia and the national protests (colloquially referred to as El Paro) that began in April 2021. The nation, suffering from increasing political polarisation, rising poverty rates and crippling structural
In this thesis, emphasise is on the positive impact companies that can have on the fulfilment of human rights. Regarding human rights and business, one can mainly read about companies' violations of human rights. In my opinion, this negative approach will not stimulate them to improve their policies and performances. A more positive approach can be a motivation for companies to take the opport
The global music market is huge. Record companies make their money by exploiting the copyright in the music and lyrics of artists signed to their labels. Now the music industry is taking its first tentative steps into cyberspace and at stake is a potentially lucrative method of distributing music in a new way. First, however, significant difficulties need to be overcome, not the least concerning t
The Law of Carriage of Goods by Sea is dominated by international conventions. Both Sweden and England have one of these conventions, the Hague-Visby Rules (HVR), as the basis for their mandatory legislation. Accordingly, the relationship between the parties to a contract of carriage by sea is generally regulated in similar ways in these two countries. The new Swedish Maritime Code from 1994 has t
Modern gas turbines always operate at a high level of inlet temperature. The current inlet temperature in the aircraft and heavy duty gas turbines is higher than the melting point of the guide vane material. Consequently, advanced cooling schemes must be developed to ensure the safe operation of gas turbines. In the current study, numerical simulations were conducted to investigate the influence o
Change Impact Analysis (CIA) during software evolution of safety-critical systems is a labor-intensive task. Several authors have proposed tool support for CIA, but very few tools were evaluated in industry. We present a case study on ImpRec, a recommendation System for Software Engineering (RSSE), tailored for CIA at a process automation company. ImpRec builds on assisted tracing, using informati
