År 2017 anger 255 av 290 kommuner i Sverige att de har bostadsbrist. Detta innebär att utbudet av bostäder inte möter det behov och den efterfrågan som finns i kommunen. Den nationella prognosen för antalet bostäder som ska byggas fram till år 2025 är 710 000 och grundas på den förväntade befolkningsutvecklingen. Något som inte förklaras av siffran är vilken typ av bostäder som ska byggas. De finnThe lack of housing in Sweden is a problematic question of big importance.

Resolutioner är per definition icke-bindande rekommendationer, men anses i vissa fall kunna få ett normativt värde, genom att bli relevant för påvisandet av en sedvanerättslig regels existens eller begynnande opinio juris. Faktorer som blir betydelsefulla för om en resolution ska anses få en sådan funktion är bland annat graden av stöd och upprepningen av resolutioner som ger uttryck för en regel.Resolutions are, by definition, non-binding recommendations, but are consi- dered in some cases to have a normative value, by becoming relevant for ascertaining the existence of a customary rule of international law or deve- loping opinion juris. Factors for determining whether a resolution has such a function includes the degree of support and repetition of the resolutions ex- pressing the rule.
Genom den popularisering som skett av feminismen har ett skifte skett i den marknadsföring som riktar sig till kvinnor, främst gällande framställningen av kvinnor i reklam. Dessutom vill många företag idag framställa sig som feminister, antingen för att de faktiskt är det, eller för att de vill utnyttja dess positiva påföljder. Det handlar alltså om två olika marknadsföringsstrategier; femvertisinThrough the popularization of feminism, a shift has taken place in the marketing aimed at women, mainly regarding the portrayal of women in advertising. In addition, many companies today want to present themselves as feminists, either because they are, or because they want to take advantage of its positive consequences. It is thus about two different marketing strategies: femvertising or femwashin

Mitt på Gotland ligger Atlingbo, ett litet jordbrukssamhälle där landskapet definieras av åkrar, skog och hagar. På Gotland, där en majoritet av invånarna bor utanför tätorterna, finns en levande landsbygd där små företag kan blomstra. Hantverksyrken gynnas trots det isolerade läget tack vare en stor genomströmning av turister. Projektet är en keramikverkstad intill den gamla lärarbostaden i AtliAt the centre of Gotland is Atlingbo, a small agricultural community where the landscape is defined by fields, forests and pastures. On Gotland, where a majority of the residents live outside of urban areas, the rural economy thrives and small businesses can flourish. Potentially, craft professions are supported here despite the isolated location thanks to a high influx of tourists. The project
The Potato Park is an Andean Quechua biocultural heritage territory where six communities restored a rich biodiversity of native potatoes and other crops.

I svensk rätt råder fri bevisföring. Lagstiftaren har dock genom den allmänna avvisningsregeln i 35 kapitlet 7 § RB gett domstolen rätt att på eget initiativ avvisa bevisning, trots att den svenska civilprocessen bygger på principer om att tvisten ska ägas och disponeras av parterna. Bestämmelsen ställer civilprocessens ledstjärnor och principer mot varandra och rättssäkerheten får i viss mån ge vIn Sweden, the production of evidence is free. The legislator has, through the general rejection rule in Chapter 35, Section 7 of the Code of Judicial Procedure given the court the right to reject evidence, even though the Swedish civil procedure is based on principles stating that the dispute belongs to and should be disposed of by the parties. The section contrasts the guiding principles of the

Professional counselors are often seen as responsible for highlighting the need of, and to operate the social work in healthcare. To have that expertise in an otherwise medical context can lead to it being a difficult task. It is also suggested that the social worker’s role and professional identity is vague, which also influences social worker’s jurisdictional work. The aim of this study was to i
Seaweed along the Swedish coast contains both proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals, and could be part of the food supply of the future. It could also be described as climate smart as seaweed does not need to be watered, fertilized, or take up land for cultivation. One of the problems with the intention of consuming the seaweed is its potentially high content of heavy metals. This work has focused
The European union and the Convention on biological diversity require 30% of all land to be protected by 2030, stressing the necessity for increased nature conservation.

Amerikansk kurslitteratur och internationell forskning som förekommer på psykoterapeutprogrammets familjeinriktade gren poängterar inte sällan vikten av klienternas religiösa tro och att denna omtalas under terapeutiska sessioner med par. Motsvarigheten i svensk kurslitteratur och praxis upplevdes inte gå att finna, varför det har känts meningsfullt att undersöka hur ämnet talas om inom svensk faU.S. course literature and international research that appears at the psychotherapy program's fam. It is not uncommon for the discipline to emphasize the importance of the clients' religious beliefs and that this is brought up during therapeutic sessions with couples. The correspondence in Swedish course literature and practice was not perceived to be found, which is why it has felt meanin
The threat of change and the loss it can incur creates the need to preserve a detailed version of the past. Elizabeth Gaskell's Cranford can be interpreted as a piece looking backwards as a means of looking forward; acknowledging and commemorating the existence of a rich and detailed past allows for the closing of its chapters, and thus eventual movement into a new future. In this paper I will
