Within the context of the European Union Competition Law, a master's thesis entitled "Data as a Barrier to Entry and an Essential Facility: Law & Economics Analysis" conducts an in-depth investigation of the function that data plays in relation to competition law. The idea that data might be a valuable asset in the contemporary digital economy is presented in the very first part
Social enterprises are hybrid organizations with two institutional logics, one focusing on social goals and the other one focusing on economic profitability.

One type of tension is belonging tension. This t
Utgångspunkten till denna studie var att undersöka sångares handlingsutrymme i ensembleundervisningen. Frågeställningarna som ramar in arbetet berör fördelningen av instrumentspecifika instruktioner mellan instrumentgrupperna, hur detta ter sig och vilka förutsättningar som står till grund för dem. Studien utforskar även fördelningen av taltid mellan tjejer och killar i ensembleundervisningen samtThe premise for the study was to research singers’ capacity for action in the context of contemporary classroom ensemble. The research questions that frame the present study concern the division of instrument specific instructions between the different groups of instruments in the contemporary classroom ensemble, and further what this looks like and which premises that ground the division.

Studiens syfte var att undersöka om det fanns någon skillnad mellan en grupp patienter med schizofrenidiagnos och en jämförelsegrupp bestående av personal från en akutpsykosavdelning när det gäller mentaliseringsförmåga. Mentaliseringsförmågan skattades med instrumentet ”Reading the Mind in the Eyes Test (RMET)”. Den ursprungliga planen var att konsekutivt rekrytera samtliga patienter till studien
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka sambanden mellan attityder till miljön, personlighet och empati, samt huruvida personlighet och empati kan predicera miljöattityder. Detta gjordes genom en tvärsnittsstudie där målgruppen utgjorde unga vuxna i åldrarna 18-30 som rekryterades genom ett bekvämlighetsurval på sociala medier.

Global investment decisions are increasingly prioritizing sustainability, and this study examines how firm-level practices toward sustainability have the potential to attract foreign ownership. Focusing on the Eastern European and Central Asian (EECA) region, the interaction between foreign direct investment (FDI) and sustainable management practices within the context of middle- to upper-middle-i
This paper examines the effect a membership in the EMU would have on the Swedish economy. This is done by using the synthetic control method where a synthetical Sweden is created and compared with actual Sweden. Synthetic Sweden is created by 11 donor pool countries, which are the 11 countries that joined the EMU in 1999. Using GDP per capita and Export as a percentage of GDP as dependent variable

The thesis provides an overview of the relationship between tax treaties and domestic law and issues that arise if a contracting state uses domestic anti-avoidance rules to prevent the improper use of a tax treaty. Improper use of a tax treaty is an issue addressed in the BEPS Action 6 report. The suggestion is to include a limitation-on-benefits clause in the OECD Model Convention, a principal pu
At the beginning of this century, the EU set itself the ambitious goal of becoming the most competitive, sustainable and dynamic knowledge-based economy in the world. In this context, the concept of corporate social responsibility is gradually presenting itself as the hidden key to success. This means that companies should not just aim at financial gain, but should also take up societal and enviro
Skattetilläggsbestämmelserna och skatteflyktslagen utgör var för sig till viss del kontroversiella metoder för att skydda den svenska skattebasen. Skatteflyktslagen infördes till att börja med som medel för att åstadkomma en jämlik och korrekt beskattning i fall då de skattskyldige på ett lagenligt vis kringgått skattebestämmelser. Som tiden gått har skatteflyktslagen fått ett utvidgat tillämpningThe regulations on tax surcharge and the Tax Evasion Act are both considered to be controversial ways of protecting the Swedish tax base. The Tax Evasion Act was passed in order to achieve an equal and correct taxation even though the taxpayer in a legal way has evaded tax. Over the years the scoop of application of the Tax Evasion Act has increased and with the ruling in the case RÅ 2010 ref. 51

I början av 1930-talet var nära 200 000 kvinnor anställda som hembiträden i svenska hushåll, men många var missnöjda med sin arbetssituation. Under hotet om deras flykt från yrket aktualiserades genom en motion i Sveriges riksdag 1931 den så kallade hembiträdesfrågan, som skulle bli ett hett debattämne in i nästa decennium. Året därpå fick den svenska ljudfilmen sin första stora braksuccé: Vi som
Objective: To investigate the risk of stillbirth or neonatal death before 45 post-menstrual weeks in relation to gestational duration, stratified by body mass index (BMI) and parity. Design: Retrospective study. Setting: Data from the Swedish Medical Birth Register. Population: Singleton, cephalic births at between 39+0 and 42+2 weeks of gestation, 2005–2016 (n = 892 339).

Swetra is primarily a research project, but its computer programs and reports may result in commercial products. The research group at Lund consists of a few persons only, which has advantages eind disadvantages. The main languages studied are Russian, English and Swedish. The grammatical model is Referent Grammar (RG) and the project is a spin-off of the development of that grammar. Referent Gram
A small Mesolithic campsite near Sammakko in northernmost Sweden has been identified through its abundance of burnt bone and quartz refuse from stone tool manufacturing/ maintenance. Radiocarbon dating places hunter-gatherer activity here around 8900 years ago, 1800 years later than the oldest known settlement in Norrbotten, the Aareavaara site. Sediment stratigraphy in nearby lake basins suggests
