During the Swedish NATO negotiations, the Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan once again raised the question of whether Türkiye could be welcomed into the EU. This thesis examines Türkiye’s shortcomings concerning their EU accession, focusing on the human rights of Kurdish people by answering the research questions: what is the state of human rights of the Kurd-ish people in Türkiye, and what c
The US has for many years had a strong relationship with Israel. However, in this relationship something does not add up; The US presents itself as a strong defender of human rights and liberty, and at the same time they have this strong relationship with Israel, who has been violating the rights and liberties of Palestinians for many years now. So how come the US has this strong relationship with
Introduction: Many countries in the world are still facing high maternal mortality rates and women still die due to preventable pregnancy- and birth-related causes. This could be prevented with an improvement in the quality of care and yet many countries, especially in the rural areas, have challenges in doing so. In order to understand why is care given in certain way, more qualitative studies ne
We study opinion dynamics in social networks using a version of the concatenated Friedkin-Johnsen model, where the opinion evolution of the participating agents is allowed to continue over sequences of related issues. These agents have a certain associated stubbornness that anchors them to their initial opinion, which we allow them to update between issues. The central purpose of the present work
This study investigates the potential loss of memory details as a consequence of making successful associative inferences using the associative inference (AI) paradigm with naturalistic stimuli mimicking realistic interactions (AB,BC,and AC). It also aims to further our understanding of the mechanisms involved in the production of integrated memory representations—whether through integrative encod
Offentlig upphandling bygger på EU-rättens grundläggande principer vilka bland annat syftar till att säkerställa rättvisa och konkurrens. När ett kontrakt har ingåtts är möjligheterna att ändra dess innehåll under löptiden därför strikt begränsade. Ändrings- eller optionsklausuler utgör dock ett undantag från denna huvudregel och medger ändringar av upphandlade kontrakt utan att ett nytt upphandliPublic procurement is based on the fundamental principles of EU law which aim to ensure justice and competition, among other things. Once a contract has been concluded, the possibilities to modify its content during its term are therefore strictly limited. However, review or option clauses constitute an exception to this general rule, allowing changes to procured contracts without the need for a n
Uppsatsen ska utreda minoritetsaktieägare som både är anställda och styrelseledamöter, möjligheter att frånträda en konkurrensklausul i ett s.k. aktieägar- eller aktieöverlåtelseavtal. Konkurrensklausuler kan intas enskilt eller i kombination i fler än en bolagsroll, och för olika avtalsformer. Personer kan i ett aktiebolag inneha en eller flera roller i association till bolaget som exv. styrelsemThis thesis investigates a minority shareholder which is booth an employee and a board member rights and opportunities in a limited liability shareholders company, availabilities to deviate from a non-compete clause insurrected to a shareholder or share transfer agreement. Non-compete clauses can be entered into individually or in combination in one or more forms of agreement. Individuals in a sma
RTK GNSS is a way of deciding the position of a GNSS receiver with high precision. It should theoretically be possible to determine the position with the precision of a couple of centimeters. Traditionally the RTK GNSS system consists of a base station and a rover. The base station knows its position and compares that to the information it gets from the satellites in order to calculate the error.
With the increasing portfolio of options when looking for new mobile apps and web tools their is a need to excel. One of the possible solutions is to capture and hold on to the users by introducing gamification that motivates the user and gives them the opportunity to feel more engaged with a product. This master thesis examines a possible gamification design for the software solution KLAR. KLAR c
Could geographic distance effect how we perceive commercials? Research within the confines of attitude change has found a connection between close and distant temporal distances and concrete and abstract thinking. The present study sought to expand this research to spatial distance and regulatory focus.131 students were recruited to an experiment with the purpose to investigate how spatial di
This thesis investigates how income influences the way parents in Sweden share paid parental leave. Although the Swedish parental leave system is universal in design, its use varies across income groups and regions. By analyzing national data grouped by income level and regional data from all 21 counties between 2005 and 2019, the study examines how financial position and local context relate to t
Klimatförändringarna är en av de största samhällsutmaningarna i vår tid och det ställs därför högre av på dagens byggande och materialval. Cirka en femtedel av Sveriges utsläpp kommer från byggbranschen där materialtillverkning och produktionsutsläpp inkluderas. För att minska klimatpåverkan kan strategiska materialval göras för att sänka koldioxidutsläppen. Många gånger görs detta genom att tittaClimate change is one of the biggest societal challenges of our times, which is why high standards are set on today’s building construction and material choices. Around one fifth of the total carbon emissions from Sweden comes from the construction industry where material manufacturing and production are included. Through strategic material choices, could the carbon emissions be reduced. This is o
This work investigates image synthesis of two generative models: the Variational Autoencoder (VAE) and the Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model (DDPM). One approach for synthesis is to interpolate between real samples within the models' latent spaces. To understand how we can interpolate in the models' latent space, we derive the loss functions of the models. We trained the models on MN
The EU's Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), a crisis response of 673 billion euro to the Covid-19 pandemic, made it possible to reward reforms in Member States for the first time. This thesis investigates whether the RRF can promote structural reforms, in line with the Eu-ropean Semester's Country Specific Recommendations (CSRs), using a principal-agent framework to theorise the RRF’s
As artificial intelligence increasingly plays a role in modern startups and further mediates how entrepreneurs interpret their markets, founders no longer primarily use their own exploration of the markets but rely on pre-structured lists made by algorithmic tools. Whilst the tool has largely presented this reality to augment the capabilities of entrepreneurs, it has paid less attention to what go
