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

A shipyards' right of retention is somewhat of a phenomenon, enabling the shipyard to retain property and secure credit accordingly. The right of retention has a character that is similar to a so-called legal lien. The current regulation in the MC governing retention has its roots in the 1967 Convention on Maritime Liens and Mortgages. There are several kinds of retention rights. The one prima

The permafrost area in the Arctic region contains vast carbon stocks within and beneath the permafrost, which is frozen ground that has not thawed in two years. These carbon stocks are sensitive to ongoing global warming. When the white and reflective snow and ice melts, the remaining land and sea surfaces absorb more shortwave radiation and get warmer. Heat transport to the Arctic will also incre

This paper addresses the issue of gendered identity as presented in Charlotte Brontë's first and last novels, The Professor and Villette. As both of these novels are fictional autobiographies, and as the former is narrated by a man and the latter by a woman, they serve as good objects of analysis in that each of them represents its narrator’s understanding of him- or herself. Taking nineteenth

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

I Sverige kom det första undantaget från turordningsreglerna 1994 med syftet att upprätthålla balansen mellan arbetstagarnas trygghet och verksamheternas behov av flexibilitet. Sedan 2001 är undantaget i turordningsreglerna begränsat till två personer och gäller för företag med högst tio anställda. År 2020 är tvåundantaget återigen uppe för diskussion om ändring i och med betänkandet SOU 2020:30, In Sweden the first exception concerning turn rules was accepted in 1994 with the purpose to maintain the balance between employment protection and the companies need for flexibility. Since 2001 the exception concerning turn rules is limited to two employees for organisations with at most ten employees. In the year of 2020 the exception within the turn rules is up for discussion once again hence t

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

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

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

Multi-wavelength thermo-optical analysis (MW-TOA) and Raman spectroscopy are commonly used methods to study soot sampled on filters, in terms of carbon content, nanostructure, and absorption properties. In this work, these techniques were combined to study how these characteristic properties of soot change in premixed flames, 1) at various flame heights during soot maturation and 2) as a result of

Generation Z [Gen Z] har till skillnad från tidigare generationer ett behov att bli förstådda av företag för att ha en positiv inställning till deras kommunikation. Detta, kombinerat med en mer komplex tid att hantera en digital kundupplevelse, gör det svårt för företag att nå ut till målgruppen på sociala medier. Denna studie syftar därav till att gå på djupet för att förstå hur Gen Z uppfattar fGeneration Z [Gen Z], unlike previous generations, has a need to be understood by companies in order to have a positive attitude towards their communication. This, combined with a more complex time managing a digital customer experience, makes it difficult for companies to reach the target audience on social media. This study therefore aims to go in depth to understand how Gen Z perceives companie

Dataskyddsförordningen, GDPR, ämnar att skydda personuppgifter genom att sätta den registrerades intressen är i fokus, samtidigt som lagen specifikt beaktar mikro-företag samt små och medelstora företags, SMEs, särskilda behov. Uppsatsen närmar sig denna problematik från ett perspektiv baserat på grundläggande rättigheter; problemformuleringen är hur mindre företags rättigheter och intressen kan bThe General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR, aims to provide protection of personal data which is centred on the data-subject, while at the same time categorically giving special consideration to the specific needs of micro, small and medium‑sized enterprises, SMEs. The paper approaches this conundrum from a fundamental rights angle, and tries to answer how the rights and interests of smaller bus

Syfte: Utvärdera kvaliteten och läsbarheten för svenska hemsidor med information för vuxna med hörselnedsättning. Metod: De två sökorden hörselnedsättning och hörapparater, skrevs in i den mest använda sökmotorn i Sverige under januari 2016, Google. Därefter valdes de 20 första relevanta hemsidorna av varje sökord, det vill säga sammanlagt 40 hemsidor. Dubbletterna togs bort och totalt utvärderadeAim: Evaluating the quality and readability of Swedish websites with information for adults with hearing loss. Method: Two keywords hearing loss and hearing aids, were entered in Google (the most used search engine in Sweden, January 2016).The first 20 relevant websites were elected of each keyword, making a total of 40 websites. Removing duplicates resulted in 29 websites that were assessed. Eval

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

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

A detailed mapping of the dominant kinematical domains contributing to the prompt atmospheric neutrino flux at high neutrino energies is presented by studying their sensitivity to the cuts on several kinematical variables crucial for charm production in cosmic ray scattering in the atmosphere. This includes the maximal center-of-mass energy for proton-proton scattering, the longitudinal momentum f

I syfte att undvika dubbelbeskattning och på så sätt skapa goda för-utsättningar för tillväxt på den globala marknaden, väljer många stater att ingå skatteavtal. En baksida med skatteavtalen är att de i vissa situationer resulterar i dubbel icke-beskattning. Vissa inkomster beskattas med andra ord inte alls, tack vare skatteavtalet. I syfte att förhindra dessa situationer, väljer många stater att In order to avoid double taxation and thus create good conditions for the growth on the global market, many states choose to conclude tax treaties. However, the downside of tax treaties is that they in certain cases results in double non-taxation. Some income is in other words not taxed at all, due to the tax treaty. To prevent these situations, many states legislate against tax evasion and tax av

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
