This study investigates if there are any advantages in increasing foreign direct investments for members of the Association of South Asian Nations (ASEAN) regional integration area. The study explains the effect that regional integration, preferential trade agreements and free trade areas have on attracting foreign direct investments. Different aspects of regional integration are used to explain w

The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the credibility of Mexico’s Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) and to identify areas for policy intervention that can strengthen the credibility of the climate pledges. Using Mexico as a case study, the research tested and further developed an initial credibility assessment framework for a country-level analysis to evaluate the credibility

The objective of this study is to examine the relationship between PPGIS (Public Participation Geographic Information System) and Urban planning. The purpose is to investigate questions regarding Public Participation and PPGIS. The study is of qualitative character. I have conducted field observations on areas concerning my issue. In addition to this I have made interviews to examine how PPGIS is

Helpers of helpers – co-chaperone proteins and protein aggregation Proteins are one of the essential molecules that make up our bodies and the bodies of all living beings. Chaperone proteins exist as a protein ¨helper,¨ folding, maintaining, and regulating other proteins. To help these helpers, co-chaperone proteins, ¨helpers of helpers,¨ regulate chaperone proteins and help them by carrying out

Entrepreneurship plays an important role in enhancing economic growth, innovation, and social development. Although entrepreneurial success is often linked to individual initiative and risk-taking, knowledge management and networking are recognized as critical components for fostering successful entrepreneurial ventures. The contribution of knowledge hubs in facilitating these elements remains une

This thesis investigates the impact of privatizing public employment services in Sweden by comparing two service models: Stöd och Matchning (Stom) and Kundval Rusta och Matcha (Krom). The study aims to determine whether a higher share of result-based compensation and greater freedom for providers to design their own measures of service provision under Krom, improve the results of the service. This

Redan för över ett århundrade sedan, i industrialiseringens vagga, funderade fysiker, kemister och naturvetenskapare på de eventuella konsekvenser de oreglerade utsläppen av fossila bränslen i atmosfären kunde få. Bland annat förutsåg man en framtida global uppvärmning. Nu har det gått många årtionden sedan vi fick svart på vitt att den globala uppvärmningen är ett faktum. Det råder överväldigande

Rural to urban migration is radically changing the face of rural development with far-reaching implications on agriculture and rural transformation. The study examines the relationship between rural-urban migration and agricultural development in Kenya. The aim of the study is to determine the effects of rural-urban migration on agricultural development by using a case study of a sub-location in N

The purpose of this micro-ethnographic study was to bring to light the choices and strategies of poor people in reaction to what they imagined housing policies to be in Nicaragua. The analysis used four of Bourdieu’s concepts which are Habitus, Capital, Field, and Agency and his structuralistic constructivism and interpretivism within a mainly phenomenological approach. Both approaches emphasized

Popular Abstract in English The ability to make aromatic cleft compounds is of importance in the field of molecular recognition where many interactions of the guest with the receptor are based on interactions involving aromatic receptor moieties leading to π-π and cation-π interactions, as well as hydrophobic interactions commonly seen. One attractive framework for aromatic cleft compounds is TrögThe centenarian Tröger’s base (TB) was envisaged as scaffold for the construction of tubular-shaped cleft molecules due to its the remarkable structural properties. This endeavor started with the synthesis of the three possible diastereomers of a linear symmetrically fused tris-TB analogue, the anti-anti, the syn-syn, and the syn-anti. All three diastereomers showed unprecedented stability to acid

BACKGROUND: High doses of aspirin counteract the beneficial effects of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. It is not known how low-dose aspirin, with concomitant ACE-inhibitor treatment, affects renal function. AIM: To study renal effects of different doses of aspirin in elderly healthy volunteers who had an activated renin-angiotensin system. METHODS: Sixteen subjects each received tw

Popular Abstract in English The conservation of forests is receiving increasing international attention. News reports of rampant deforestation for oil palm plantations in Indonesia or soy and cattle ranching in Brazil are the visible images that many of us know. Combating the loss of forests and mitigating climate change through the prevention of further carbon emissions to the atmosphere are promMarket-based instruments have become a widely used approach to motivate landowners to conserve forests instead of clearing them. However, such market-based instruments are increasingly criticized for their simplistic view on complex environmental, social and economic issues; for their ethical stance; and for creating exchange value for essential ecosystems services, which potentially perpetuates a

It is well understood that adding to the population increases CO2 emissions. At the same time, having children is a transformative experience, such that it might profoundly change adult (i.e., parents’) preferences and consumption. How it might change is, however, unknown. Depending on if becoming a parent makes a person “greener” or “browner,” parents may either balance or exacerbate the added COIt is well understood that adding to the population increases CO2 emissions.

The overarching trend in mitochondrial genome evolution is functional streamlining coupled with gene loss; therefore, gene acquisition by mitochondria is considered to be exceedingly rare. Selfish elements in the form of self-splicing introns occur in many organellar genomes, but the wider diversity of selfish elements, and how they persist in the DNA of organelles, has not been explored. In the m
