Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur skall en domstol välja mellan att tillämpa konkurrensrättsliga eller arbetsrättsliga regler på ett konkurrensproblem som uppstått genom en bestämmelse i ett kollektivavtal? Ytterst handlar denna fråga om ett val mellan oförenliga regler. Tillämpas konkurrensrätten underkänns i regel den kollektivavtalade bestämmelsen medan samma bestämmelse i stället godkännes om arThe dissertation deals with the normative conflict between labour law and competition law. The legislation in each area gives the Courts guidance in solving a legal problem that has previously been classified as belonging to one or the other area. But the principles guiding the Courts when both competition law and labour law are applicable to a legal problem are vague and difficult to generalise.

This thesis deals with the information-structural problems native speakers of Swedish have when producing texts in German as their second or foreign language (L2). The study is based on written production data from Swedish learners of German at the initial state (14-year-olds), at intermediate level (16-year-olds) and at advanced level (20-25-year-olds). These data are compared with Swedish and Ge

The subject of this study is the re-intensified dispute between rhetoric and philosophy in the times of the Second Sophistic. The focus of our investigation has been on two authors of this period who have left behind treatises the explicit purpose of which is to attack or defend rhetoric: Sextus Empiricus who is sharply criticising rhetoric and Aelius Aristides who is defending it. Our purpose has

Objective To explore whether a panel of kallikrein markers in blood: total, free and intact prostate-specific antigen (PSA) and kallikrein-related peptidase 2, could be used as a non-invasive alternative for predicting prostate cancer on biopsy in a screening setting. Subjects and Methods The study cohort comprised previously unscreened men who underwent sextant biopsy owing to elevated PSA (3 ng/

This work describes a new diffusion MR framework for imaging and modeling of microstructure that we call q-space trajectory imaging (QTI). The QTI framework consists of two parts: encoding and modeling. First we propose q-space trajectory encoding, which uses time-varying gradients to probe a trajectory in q-space, in contrast to traditional pulsed field gradient sequences that attempt to probe a

The present study employs square cross-section ribbed channels with different arrangements of downstream half-size ribs to determine the most optimal configurations for augmenting heat transfer rates with minimized pressure drop penalties. The channel inlet Reynolds number ranges from 20,000 to 160,000. The influence of downstream ribs arrangement on the overall performance characteristics of ribb

The innate immune factors controlling Candida albicans are mostly unknown. Vulvovaginal candidiasis is common in women and affects approximately 70-75% of all women at least once. Despite the propensity of Candida to colonize the vagina, transmission of Candida albicans following sexual intercourse is very rare. This prompted us to investigate whether the post coital vaginal milieu contained facto

Life-threatening intracardiac and great vessels thrombi are rare in neonates. Recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rTPA) is used in adults to stimulate fibrinolysis and facilitate thrombus resolution. Its use in neonates, along with heparin, remains controversial because of potential risk of serious bleeding. We aim to present our experience with the use of thrombolytic agents in seven neonat

Deprotonation of the ionogenic tetradentate ligand 6,6'-bis(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)-2,2'-bipyridine [H2bipy(ttr)2] in the presence of Fe(II) in solution has afforded an anionic mononuclear complex and a neutral two-dimensional coordination polymer formulated as, respectively, NEt3H{Fe[bipy(ttr)2][Hbipy(ttr)2]}·3MeOH (1) and {Fe[bipy(ttr)2]}n (2). The anions [Hbipy(ttr)2](-) and [bipy(ttr)2](2-) embrace

Frågan om restprodukter – ämnen eller material som oavsiktligt framställts i en produktionsprocess – ska utgöra avfall eller inte är en omdebatterad fråga i EU:s avfallslagstiftning. EU-domstolen har tagit upp frågan i ett flertal mål och genom sin praxis ställt upp kriterier som utgör en princip för när en restprodukt utgör en biprodukt och inte ett avfall – i detta arbete benämnt biproduktprinciThe question if a residual substance – a material that has been unintentionally produced in a production process – should be regarded as a waste is a heavily debated question in EU waste legislation. The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has brought the question to attention in a number of cases, and has through its case law put forward a number of criteria as to when a residual substance shall be c

Det Palestinska Territoriet har sedan 1967 varit ockuperat av Israel. Som följd av ett stort antal oroligheter och protester mot ockupationen har Israel infört restriktioner för rörlighet inom Västbanken och Gaza. Rörligheten är styrd med hjälp av exempelvis vägspärrar och blockerade vägar. År 2002 började Israel bygga en betongmur runt om och inuti Västbanken, trots att det motsätter sig internatThe Palestinian Territory has since 1967 been occupied by Israel. Following a large number of disturbances as protests to the occupation, Israel has imposed mobility restrictions for Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza. The mobility is regulated by for example checkpoints, roadblocks and earth mounds. In 2002, Israel started to build a concrete wall around and inside the Palestinian Territory o

Title: Planning for Supplier Base Reduction - understanding Supplier Base Reduction’s role in purchasing. A case study at Alfa Laval AB Authors: Fabian Karlsson and Sebastian Eriksson-Ritzén Supervisors: Ala Pazirandeh, Department of Industrial Management and Logistics, Lund University Markus Ekendahl, Alfa Laval AB Background: Today individual businesses do not compete as isolated entities, but r

De flesta aktiebolag i Sverige är fåmansföretag – vilket innebär att de ägs till övervägande del av en eller ett fåtal personer – och för dessa företag gäller särskilda skatterättsliga regler. Bakgrunden till denna särreglering är att det inte föreligger något sant tvåpartsförhållande mellan företaget och dess ägare, vilka utan särreglering därför skulle kunna skaffa sig omotiverade skattemässiga Most limited companies in Sweden are closely held companies – which mean that they are predominantly owned by one or a few persons – and for these companies there are special regulations applicable. The reason for having special regulations is that there does not exist a bilateral relationship between the company and the owner. Hence, without these special regulations the owner could receive unjus

They have refineries in several parts of the world and their largest production facility is situated in Nynäshamn, Sweden. They also have oil depots in all continents and their largest depot is located in Antwerp, Belgium. In the beginning of 2007 Nynas introduced a new type of transformer oils, called Nova grade

This master thesis relates to future trends within the field of Business Intelligence. The purpose is to create and share knowledge about Business Intelligence. A theoretical study is necessary for both readers as mandator. With no or limited understanding of Business Intelligence it will most likely be hard to follow the discussions and results of the study. The main purpose is to increase the un

Purpose The purpose of the research is to analyse the consumer’s underlying motivations for behaviour and decision-making in an impulse buying context, in order to gain a deeper understanding of the drivers behind impulse buying. Method The study is conducted with an explorative approach. A combination of self-administered diaries and semi-structured interviews were chosen to collect the empirical

A fundamental freedom in the European Union is the freedom of establishment. As part of the development of the internal market, it is essential to simplify the possibilities for EU-citizens who wish to establish their business within the internal market. Cross-border balancing within group companies is a way of helping companies to use the internal markets full potential in a more effective way. T

Idag behandlas cancer med bl.a. strålbehandling, tyvärr ger denna många gånger biverkningar. Detta beror på att strålningen inte bara skadar cancerceller utan även friska celler, eftersom strålningen måste passera frisk vävnad för att nå in till cancertumören. Det har nyligen utvecklats en ny strålbehandlingsteknik som kan minska strålningen till frisk vävnad samtidigt som tumören ges en hög strål"Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a fairly new modality in the treatment of cancer with radiotherapy. The original idea is Swedish and has existed for more than 20 years. But it is only in recent years that clinics have implemented the IMRT technique. IMRT uses many segments (small subfields) that build up radiation fields with nonuniform energy fluence. With this technique, be

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Fjällen i Kebnekaiseområdet är bland de högsta i Sverige (runt 2000 m.ö.h.) och de är uppbyggda av en mängd olika bergarter. Dessa bergarter bildades ursprungligen långt väster om våran fjällkedja på olika platser och fördes samman under den så kallade Kaledoniska orogenesen. En orogenes orsakas vanligtvis av att två kontinenter kolliderar med varandra och berThe tectonostratigraphic units in northern Kebnekaise Mountains mainly belong to the Seve Nappe Complex. These rocks were originally formed at the continental margin of Baltica in Late-Proterozoic time and mainly consist of amphibolite, granitic gneisses and metasediments. The metamorphic grade is usually amphibolite facies. The areas investigated in this work, Nallo and Mårma, consist of four di

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Examensarbetet syftar till att undersöka vegetationens utveckling och historia i området kring Skäralid, på Söderåsen i Skåne. Av särskilt intresse är när boken (Fagus sylvatica) invandrade i området och när den blev dominerande i skogen. Under hösten år 2000 kommer Naturvårdsverket här att inrätta Sveriges 27:e nationalpark: Söderåsens nationalpark. Nationalpar
