The purpose of this thesis is to examine the target firm’s abnormal returns in two aspects; short-term and long-term after a bid gets terminated for different categorizations and payment methods. The approach is the buy-and hold abnormal returns presented by Barber & Lyon (1997). The approach of control firms are used in the context of BHAR as recommended by Safieddine & Titman (1999). Thi
Beginning from June 2019, the streets of Hong Kong have been turned into a theatre of protests. Together with their banners and umbrellas, protesters took to the street to protest against the proposed extradition bill that allows the government to send suspected criminals to mainland China. This ongoing movement is the largest anti-government movement in the city’s history, and it is also the firs
Huvudregeln gällande en stats brukande av våld framgår av artikel 2(4) i Förenta nationernas stadga. Av artikeln så framgår ett förbud för såväl hot som bruk av våld. Då det görs i syfte att inskränka en annan stats politiska oberoende eller territoriella integritet.

Additionally, actions of threats or use of force that are in violation of the purposes of the United
Over the last two decades, Conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV) has come under increased scrutiny from academics and the public alike. Despite this, there remains a crucial need for further research to understand the variations and extent of CRSV across conflicts. This thesis introduces natural resource conflicts as a variable of interest, by examining the relationship between natural resource

The present study investigates how native speakers of British English (n=12) and advanced Russian learners of English (n=24) handle two types of tense-aspect mismatches: present perfect mismatches, where the present perfect form does not match the preceding adverbial (e.g. *Last year, Kate has studied French…), and past simple mismatches, where the past simple form does not match the preceding adv
Corporations’ evident struggles and failures in the 21st century to communicate their CSR efforts effectively to consumers, along with the scarce research available on the topic of CSR communication, are two key factors that have captivated our interest and awakened a desire to investigate the area of consumer perceptions and CSR communication. The rising consumer skepticism and consumers’ lack of
Imaging the strain in nanoscale heterostructures is challenging since it requires a combination of high strain sensitivity and spatial resolution. Here, we show that three-dimensional (3D) Bragg coherent diffraction imaging (BCDI) can be used to image the strain in a single InP segment within an axially heterostructured GaInP-InP nanowire. We use a 350 nm-diameter X-ray beam, which is smaller than
The first national human biomonitoring in Slovenia surveyed cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), mercury (Hg), arsenic (As), manganese (Mn), selenium (Se), copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) in a childbearing population (18–49 years) selected from lactating primiparous women and men (N = 1084). The overall aim was to estimate trace elements' levels and geographical variations in order to identify sources of possible e
BACKGROUND: Research indicates that among the risks associated with young people's alcohol and illicit drug use are sexual risks. However, insights into co-occurrence of substance use and sexual risks in adolescent samples and possible differences across countries are limited. METHODS: A sample of 1449 adolescents from Belgium, Sweden, the Czech Republic, and Germany screened positive for risky al
This study aims to answer two research questions with focus in Sida’s International Training Program: Child rights, classroom and school management, the two questions regard the knowledge transfer process. The first one focuses on how the participants of the program express knowledge and knowledge transfer and the second one highlights what contextual factors that affect the processes on three dif
In Delhi, as in many other large cities in developing countries, the inappropriate management of municipal solid waste is a significant flaw in the quality of life of its residents, and a serious threat to the environment. Taking the integrated approach to solid waste management as its point of departure, this thesis focuses on city residents as waste producers and their role in municipal solid wa
The ‘activation’ of labour market policies is a relatively undisputed phenomenon in the concomitant research field. However, welfare regime scholars predict the importance of path dependence in different advanced welfare states’ policy responses to the ever-present problem of mass youth unemployment. The aim of this thesis is to explore the trajectories of youth unemployment policy in Sweden, the
This thesis looks at the asylum policy of Turkey, on its path to EU accession. This thesis accepts the hypothesis that a rigid nation state practice is a hindrance to the development of human rights and examines this issue in the context of Turkey. The research question of this thesis asks; is there a possibility to gain decent life conditions for refugees in Turkey? Is the EU membership/accession
The household sector is responsible for around one third of German power consumption. This leads to significant environmental impacts, of which CO2 emissions are in a special focus. Modernization of existing houses, especially of rented Multi Flat Dwellings, which have a large share of the German housing stock, is a possibility to reduce these emissions. A purely technical approach limits the chan
