By employing seven semi-structured interviews with local judges and prosecutors in Kosovo, this study aims at examining how the European Union Rule of Law Mission (EULEX) has impacted the legal order in Kosovo and the practice of the judges and prosecutors. In addition, this study examines how the impacts of EULEX, and how the judges and prosecutors will be affected after the EULEX are withdrawn f
Friheten att ingå avtal och skyldigheten att hålla avgivna löften är två fundamentala principer på det obligationsrättsliga området. Dessa rättigheter balanseras av en skyldighet att iaktta och tillvarata medkontrahentens intressen: lojalitetsplikten. Avsikten med denna uppsats är att undersöka en kontraktuell lojalitetshänsyn i den svenska respektive engelska rättsordningen. I den svenska obligatThe freedom of contract and pacta sunt servanda are two fundamental principles within the law of obligations. They are indeed rights, restricted by a duty to (faithfully) recognize and to observe the other party’s interests – a duty of loyalty (lojalitetsplikt). The purpose of this thesis is to compare the contractual duties of loyalty in the Swedish and English legal systems, respectively. The
Bakgrund: Trioplast Landskrona tillverkar och trycker plastmaterial till förpackningar. Med en prispressad marknad så upplever företaget att de har svårt att konkurrera med andra företag belagda i lågavlönade länder. Priser är pressade till nivåer där Trioplast Landskrona har svårt att konkurrera med den verksamhet som bedrivs idag, Därmed vill företaget rikta sig mot den delen av marknaden som stBackground: Trioplast Landskrona manufacture and print plastic packing material. As the market pressures the prices down, the company feels that they are having a hard time competing with other companies from low salary countries. The margins are so low on the current market, that it is hard for Trioplast Landskrona to be profitable. Therefore, the company want to focus on a new market segment tha
PURPOSE AND MATERIAL: The aim of this work was, firstly, to compare different manufacturer-provided MRA sequences in a 1.0 T MR unit, with respect to the visibility of an artificial stenosis in a flow phantom and, secondly, to evaluate the same sequences in healthy volunteers with respect to S/N ratio levels and practical in vivo implementation routines. METHODS: The studied sequences were 2D and

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in Sweden. To be able to treat the disease it is important that it is detected at an early stage. In Sweden, women between 40 and 74 years are regularly offered screening with mammography to detect abnormalities in their breasts. The mammograms give the radiologist a good image of the breasts’ appearances, but it is difficult to detect structures
This thesis explores how the German right-wing political party AfD constructs a national identity in their political discourse around refugees, migrants, and foreigners. The rise of refugees and migrants worldwide has led to a renewed focus on the concepts of nation-states and national identity in defining who does and does not belong. Germany, which has taken on close to a million refugees from t
According to the 1951 Refugee Convention, it is the state’s responsibility to protect and provide basic services to the refugees within their border. However, even if ratified to the Convention, it is common that the state decides to relinquish its responsibilities for various reasons. In Trinidad and Tobago, no national refugee policy has been adopted since the ratification of the 1951 Refugee Co
Tissue-mimicking phantoms are of great interest in the development of bio-medical applications. Instead of applying to biological tissues directly, phantoms enable stable and easy accessibility to validate spectroscopy systems and measuring processes. This thesis project is centered on the development and characterization of phantoms. The interaction between light and biological tissue is mainly
Realityserien “Love is blind” är ett socialt experiment som går ut på att olika singlar dejtar varandra utan att kunna se varandras fysiska utseende. Poängen med serien är att paren ska skapa ett starkt emotionellt band som går utöver det fysiska utseendet. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur maskuliniteter konstrueras samt vad de språkliga handlingar som återfinns i programmet säger o
The production of a [Formula: see text] boson in association with a [Formula: see text] meson in proton-proton collisions probes the production mechanisms of quarkonium and heavy flavour in association with vector bosons, and allows studies of multiple parton scattering. Using [Formula: see text] of data collected with the ATLAS experiment at the LHC in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula:
Psychological disability caused by stress is likely to affect cognitive and emotional functions, such as memory, attention, concentration, and decision making. These functions are essential in a train driver’s work, who is responsible for his or her own and others’ safety, and for this purpose requires optimal work capacity. Eighteen train drivers, 40 – 56 years old, most of them with long work ex
Objective. Infected pancreatic necrosis is the main cause of death in patients with acute pancreatitis, and therefore its early prediction is of utmost importance. Endogenous cortisol metabolism plays a basic role both in the course of acute pancreatitis and in the process of infection. The purpose of this study was to analyze corticosteroid-binding globulin (CBG), total cortisol, calculated free
Realizing a 20% energy efficiency improvement in Europe by 2020 requires the introduction of good new energy efficiency policies as well as strengthening and enforcing the existing policies. This raises the question: what characterizes good and effective energy efficiency policies and their implementation? Systematic ex post evaluation of energy efficiency policies can reveal factors determining n
Studying gene-lifestyle interaction may help to identify lifestyle factors that modify genetic susceptibility and uncover genetic loci exerting important subgroup effects. Adequately powered studies with prospective, unbiased, standardised assessment of key behavioural factors for gene-lifestyle studies are lacking. This case-cohort study aims to investigate how genetic and potentially modifiable
The kinetics for the reactions between the complexes PtCln(H2O)4-n 2−n, n = 0,1,2,3,4, (including cis- and trans-isomers for n = 2) and ethene have been studied. In the case of trans-PtCl2(H2O)2, product analysis shows that both the chloride ligand and the aqua ligand are substituted by ethene in two parallel paths, differing in rate by a factor of 1.5 only. The experiments show that ethene, and p
Anthropogenic land use and land cover changes (LULCC) have a large impact on the global terrestrial carbon sink, but this effect is not well characterized according to biogeographical region. Here, using state-of-the-art Earth observation data and a dynamic global vegetation model, we estimate the impact of LULCC on the contribution of biomes to the terrestrial carbon sink between 1992 and 2015. T
Studies on survival between familial and sporadic cancers have been inconclusive and only recent data on a limited number of cancers are available on the concordance of survival between family members. In this review, we address these questions by evaluating the published and unpublished data from the nation-wide Swedish Family-Cancer Database and a total of 13 cancer sites were assessed. Using sp
Background Good nutrition is essential for individual health, a notion that is particularly true during pregnancy. We have used a nutrition index that measures the adequacy of one's diet relative to the unique nutritional needs of individuals due to, for example, their activity level, dietary restrictions, lifestyle and body size. The use of this personalised metric of dietary nutritiousness in th
