Skydd för kulturarv under internationell rätt introducerades i internationella konventioner i början på 1900-talet. Ursprungligen behandlades ämnet uteslutande i förhållande till regler gällande väpnad konflikt. Frågor om kulturarv har traditionellt sett tillhört den nationella jurisdiktionen men framväxandet av idén om ’världsarv’, kulturarv som på grund sitt värde tillhör alla folk och nationer,The protection of cultural heritage first appeared in international conventions at the beginning of the 20th century. At the time, protection was only awarded in the event of an armed conflict. Traditionally, questions of heritage and its eventual destruction belonged within the national jurisdiction but the emerge of internationalist ideas of a ‘common heritage of mankind’ changed the perception.

Uppsatsens syfte var att undersöka hur ICJ influerar internationell rätt som legal normsättare till det internationella samfundet. Frågeställningen var: hur konceptualiseras idén om ICJ och dess värde för det internationella samfundet av FN:s generalförsamling och domarna som dömde i samband med kärnvapensrådgivningen? Primärmaterialet utgjordes av valda sektioner i de åtta resolutionerna från FN:

The news media remains as one of the most important sources of societal uptake of climate change information. Its potential to covertly shape public perception and attitudes regarding climate change is therefore considerable but difficult to assess. This thesis underscores the discursive and cognitive role of metaphor in this dynamic by using a framework that combines the theory of conceptual meta

Bergslagens malmprovins är känd för att innehålla stora Zn-Pb-Ag- och Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag-sulfidförekomster med tillhörande järnoxidskarn och många studier har fokuserat på att förstå dessa förekomster. Cu-Co-förekomster som Vena-Dampetorp-förekomsten har emellertid fått mindre uppmärksamhet. Vena-Dampetorp-förekomsten är en disseminerad och åderstödd Cu-Co-mineralisering som förekommer i en 1,89 Ga ryoliThe Bergslagen Province is known for containing major Zn-Pb-Ag and Zn-Pb-Cu-Ag sulphide mineralizations with associated iron-oxide skarns and a lot of research have focused on understanding them. However, Cu-Co deposits like the Vena-Dampetorp deposit have received less attention. The Vena-Dampetorp deposit is a disseminated and vein Cu-Co mineralization hosted primarily in a 1.89 Ga rhyolitic to

After the success of Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect, China chose to deepen the opening of the stock market further and launched the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect on December 5, 2016. This paper examines the market liberalization between China and Hong Kong stock markets and the price discovery progress for cross-listed stocks in the two markets before and after the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Co

Den här avhandlingen ger en förståelse och överblick av möjligheterna och utmaningarna för en hållbar användning av individuella polybags i detaljhandeln. Detta genomfördes genom en kvalitativ analys som inkluderade litteraturstudier, semi-strukturerade intervjuer och e-mejl korrespondens. Ett material som används vanligtvis för individuella polybags är fossil-baserad LDPE plast och denna förpacknThis thesis provides an understanding and overview of the opportunities and challenges to enable a sustainable use of individual polybags used in the retail-industry. This was done by conducting a qualitative analysis including literature reviews, semi-structured interviews and e-mail correspondence. A common material choice for individual polybags is the fossil-based LDPE plastic and this packagi

China experienced a growing economy with a huge market and business potential and became the second biggest country in terms of GDP. However, because of the limitation of coherent business laws and government supervision, entering the Chinese market became a severe and complicated problem for different kinds of firms. Empirical papers show that networks, called guanxi in China make a primary contr

Previous numerical investigations have simulated the delamination of paperboard using various mechanical and cohesive models. This has given satisfactory agreement between the simulation results and experimental data when comparing force-depth curves during creasing and moment-angle curves during folding. However, the simulation results are dependent on the user’s definition of the delamination zo

This MSc thesis covers the development of a Modelica model of an engine liquid cooling system for the trucks manufactured by MAN Truck & Bus AG. The mathematical assumptions used for transcribing existing models are described and the reasoning behind the modeling process is provided. The separate component models are validated with two sets of input signals. Primarily with a dynamic, transien

Abstract (1) Carbohydrates are a class of biomolecules that play important roles within the cellular biochemistry. Functionalized carbohydrates are building blocks in our DNA in addition to being major components of the cell’s signaling molecules called proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans. Certain carbohydrates with aromatic side chains have been shown to inhibit the biosynthesis of these signali

The title of my thesis is "Jungle Fever", it aims to investigate the circumstances under which an unusual degree of violence can be used toward activists in the Amazonian region. In my study i looked at both historical factors as well as recent reports from the area which resulted in a conclusion that the pressure, not the least in economic forms, in combination with an absent judicial s

The importance of spaces of resistance lies in their ability to subvert and even change the hegemonic discourse. However, and despite extensive research on geopolitics and space-making processes, little has been said on the power that subaltern spaces can have in this area. Thus, it is the aim of this thesis to demonstrate the existence and strength of these space-making practices – which I choose

This article takes Shanghai as an example and attempts to empirically investigate the effect of local public goods supply on housing prices and regional differences based on the Tiebout model. The paper uses the panel data of Shanghai's 16 administrative regions from 2010 to 2017. The results confirm that local public goods have a significant positive impact on the overall housing prices in Sh

The thesis sets out to explore the role and meaning of friendships across two age groups. This is attained by a generational interview design where the groups are separated by nearly 20 years. The thesis is motivated by an alleged seismic shift towards the importance of friendships as the nuclear family imagery is on a purported decline in ‘contemporary society’ as suggested by the academic litera

As a result of globalization and postmodern confusion, simple place-based identities may be becoming obsolete. Malmö Finns, on the other hand, are part of a thousand-year-old tradition of migration from Finland to Sweden and a long history of in-betweenness. Inspired by phenomenological approaches to geography, this thesis explores the mental landscapes of Malmö Finns and aims to understand how th

The aim of this thesis is to investigate whether investment in information and communication technology (ICT) and the level of deregulation of these markets do have a positive impact on economic growth. Furthermore, the purpose is to analyse whether the lower economic performance in southern Europe may possibly be explained by lower levels of investment in ICT and slower deregulation of the ICT ma

Psykologisk flexibilitet (PF) refererar till förmågan att genomföra beteenden som ligger i linje med långsiktiga mål inom värderade områden i livet trots närvaro av obehagliga tankar, känslor och fysiska sensationer som ger upphov till impulser att undvika dessa erfarenheter. Högre nivåer av PF (och ökning av PF under behandling) är kopplat till bättre fungerande och mindre upplevt obehag hos vuxnPsychological Flexibility (PF) refers to a person’s ability to persist in behaviours aimed at achieving their longer-term goals in valued domains of living despite the presence of unpleasant thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations that elicit attempts to avoid these experiences. Higher levels of PF (and increases in PF during treatment) are associated with better functioning and lower psychiat

Syftet med denna uppsats är att ge en överblick över det nya, men snabbt växande, konceptet crowdsourcing. Konceptet kan enkelt beskrivas som en åtgärd att ta en uppgift som vanligtvis utförs av en utsedd arbetspresterande part (vanligtvis en anställd) och outsourca denna till en odefinerad, anonym och generellt stort grupp av människor i form av en ”öppen inbjudan”. Marknaden har under det senastThe purpose of this thesis is to provide an overview of the new, but rapidly growing, concept of crowdsourcing. The basis of the concept can be described as the act of taking a job traditionally performed by a designated agent (usually an employee) and outsourcing it to an undefined, generally large group of people in the form of an open call. In the last couple of decades, the market has exploded
