Background: Denmark and Sweden are considered to be countries of rather similar socio-political type, but public health policies and smoking habits differ considerably between the two neighbours. A study comparing mechanisms behind socioeconomic inequalities in tobacco smoking, could yield information regarding the impact of health policy and -promotion in the two countries. Methods: Cross-section
Ericsson India is looking into the possibility to enter a new business in the country. The business is a “telecom site leasing” service which would be included in Ericsson’s service portfolio. Services are an increasingly important part of the company’s total revenues. Demand for so called turn-key services, meaning full implementation and control over a customer’s network, is an example of a serv
In this thesis, I study representations of summer and winter Olympic Games and Olympic athletes in six Swedish popular magazines 1948-1972. The purpose is to examine the forms of identity produced within the nation as an “imagined community”, in discursive processes where gender, sexuality, ”race”/ ethnicity, class and age/generation intersect and mutually construct each other. The study is inspir
This thesis aims at presenting the differences and similarities between the Swedish and Canadian legal system, by means of search and seizure regulations. In doing this I hope to provide the readers, whether it is a Swede or a Canadian, with a perspective on their own legal system. In the limited time and space offered for the completion of this thesis, I had to choose one specific area of law to
Ekosystemen i vår värld förändras av naturliga krafter, som i sin tur påverkas av mänskliga aktiviteter. För att förstå och beräkna effekterna av klimatförändringar och mänsklig förvaltning på våra ekosystem har behovet av instrument för att övervaka och förutsäga jordsystemet ökat. Dynamiska globala vegetations modeller är matematiska modeller som tillåter en processbaserad beskrivning av växtsamDynamic global vegetation models are mathematical models that provide a bottom-up description of plant communities. They explicitly model physiological and population-level processes such as growth, photosynthesis, carbon allocation, regeneration and mortality.However, there are a number of challenges to meet in the context of mechanistic vegetation models which can be extrapolated to new environm
Theoretical approaches to learning in practice-based jazz improvisation contexts include situated learning and ecological perspectives. This article focuses on how interest-driven, self-sustaining jazz learning activities can be matched against the concepts of stolen knowledge (Brown & Duguid, 1996) and landscape of learning (Bjerstedt, 2014).

Land management for carbon storage is discussed as being indispensable for climate change mitigation because of its large potential to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, and to avoid further emissions from deforestation. However, the acceptance and feasibility of land-based mitigation projects depends on potential side effects on other important ecosystem functions and their services. Here
In recent decades, information technology has enjoyed an ever-increasing degree of influence upon society. The use of technology has proliferated, bleeding into all human activities, and now extends into the most private activities of individuals. Unfortunately the perpetrators of serious crimes have not missed the revolution. Technology has marked off many working terrains including that of serio
The general rule in EC law is that a holder of an intellectual property right is not obliged to license the use of that right to others. However, situations exist where intellectual property rights suffer some limitations because of the prevalence of other conflicting interests. A dominant firm can, as the holder of an intellectual property right, be forced to grant a license to one or more undert
Denna uppsats har via en rättsdogmatisk metod undersökt gällande rätt avseende nödvärn och nödvärnsexcess vid överfall. Den faktiska rättstillämpningen i underrätterna har inte berörts. Rätten till försvarsvåld gentemot brottsliga angrepp tillkommer dels den angripne, dels envar som befinner sig på platsen för angreppet. Denna rätt regleras i nödvärnsstadgandet i 24 kap. 1 § BrB. Skulle omfattninThis paper is, using a legal dogmatic method, analyzing established law regarding self-defence and excessive self-defence. The actual application of the laws in this field is not analyzed. The right of defence against violent criminal attacks is granted to the person being attacked, as well as anyone else nearby. This right is prescribed by 24 chapter 1 § Brottsbalken (the Swedish criminal code)
This thesis examines the relationship between Environmental Social and Governance (ESG) factors and investment strategies. Specifically, it focuses on how ESG scores can influence investment decisions within companies listed on the DAX Index, the benchmark German stock market index. Using Granger causality on individual companies from the DAX and on portfolios built on the ESG score of companies w
För att möta behovet av en åldrande befolkning måste den svenska vården förändras, effektiviseras och struktureras om. Den svenska sjukvården måste flytta närmare patienten och därmed kommer hemsjukvården att bli allt viktigare. Hemsjuksköterskan har en samordnande och viktig roll inom hemsjukvården. Syftet med examensarbetet var att undersöka kommunikationen, informationsflödet och olika digitalaTo meet the needs caused by an aging population, Swedish healthcare must change to become more efficient. The healthcare system needs to be reconstructed, and the care needs to shift to become more patient centered. Therefore, home healthcare will become increasingly important. The homecare nurse has a coordinating, and therefore an important, role in home care. The purpose of this master thesis w
In this exam paper the question of the meaning of 1 Cor 7:36-38 is addressed, a passage containing one case in which marriage is recommended and one in which it is not. To answer the question linguistic, literary and historical analyses are performed within the framework of an evaluation of eight proposed interpretations of the passage. In the first interpretation, labeled (A), the unspecified mal
Background: Routine oxygen therapy has for a long time been used as part of the standard treatment for myocardial infarction (MI), despite a lack of randomized controlled trials (RCT) to support the use. A recent Cochrane review on oxygen treatment for normoxic MI patients found no evidence supporting the use, rather the trend pointed towards possible harm for oxygen. The SOCCER-study (Supplementa

To increase the participation in events at Foo Café and reduce the number of people who sign up for an event but choose not to attend, a proposal for an Open Badge-system should be presented. An Ope
The profound impacts on human rights brought about by international and regional trade agreements have increasingly been recognized by scholars in the fields of human rights and trade, as well as international organizations and civil societies. Most notably, the intersection between human rights and trade has been reaffirmed by the United Nations, evidently in the reports by the United Nations Hig
