This study seeks to demonstrate the relationship between the clothing industry and human rights. The company H&M is examined as an example to clarify this. More specifically the study strives to determine how and whether the clothing industry affects human rights as well as what kind of social commitments companies are facing today due to increasing demands from various stakeholders. The purpo
I provide evidence that firms send a negative signal on its non-repurchasing industry counterparts. This is consistent with competitive effects. These negative effects are common for mature firms and are sent by the largest repurchasing firm. The market attributes non-repurchasing mature firms as those ones, which do not maximize value for shareholders because managers have excess cash at their di
During the years 1964-1992 Chevron (under the Texaco brand) drilled for oil in the Amazon, leaving behind what would be referred to as”the Chernobyl in the Amazon”. With the ability to be everywhere and nowhere, with capital and power, transnational corporations dictate the premises on which they can be hold accountable for human rights abuses. This essay aims at investigating TNCs responsibiliti
There has been a heavy decrease in biodiversity due to different kinds of exploitations in society, contributing to a more homogenous landscape. With this homogenization the variety of important biotopes in the plains has disappeared. This is not only a disadvantage to the species themselves, but to the farmers, land owners and the society due to a loss of ecosystem services. While many lesser bi
Given the limitations of the criminal justice system to address cases of sexual violence, feminist scholars are increasingly exploring alternative approaches to justice. Here I ask: What is the role of space in the way victim-survivors of sexual violence can experience justice outside the criminal justice system? Can an understanding of space help us develop justice responses to sexual violence? I
The Brussels-based civil society organizations (CSOs) have been conceived by the EU to act as a bridge between the bureaucratic elites and the citizens of Europe. The institutionalized presence of the major EU-based CSOs has, however, called their legitimacy into question, as exemplified by notions such as ‘revolving doors’ implying homogeneous social, educational, and professional backgrounds sha
Twenty-four children (aged 5 months to 18 years) who were admitted to a university hospital were observed for a total of 135 hours with the aim of describing their degree of participation in decisions concerning their own care. Grading of their participation was made by using a 5-point scale. An assessment was also made of what was considered as optimal participation in each situation. The results
Preparedness planning is part of the disaster management process in many countries and it includes building capabilities to improve the effectiveness of response to various scenarios. Sweden, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom all use risk and vulnerability analyses together with capability assessments as part of their preparations for disasters. Whereas the definitions of risk and vulnerabili
Task level programming based on skills has often been proposed as a mean to decrease programming complexity of industrial robots. Several models are based on encapsulating complex motions into self-contained primitive blocks. A semantic skill is then defined as a deterministic sequence of these primitives. A major limitation is that existing frameworks do not support the coordination of concurrentTask level programming based on skills has often been proposed as a mean to decrease programming complexity of industrial robots.

Abstract in Danish Nytter rollatorer og elkørestole? Mennesker med gangbesvær kan opleve manglende muligheder for at udføre aktiviteter, som er forudsætningen for at leve et godt liv og deltage i samfundslivet på lige fod med andre borgere. Desuden vil nedsat mobilitet føre til inaktivitet, der har helbredsmæssige konsekvenser. Derfor sættes der fra samfundets side ind med rehabilitering, blandt Rollator and powered wheelchair interventions are often applied to make participation possible for citizens with limited walking capacity. However, the research-based knowledge about outcomes is insufficient for societal prioritisation purposes and for quality development of assistive technology within occupational therapy contexts. In this thesis outcomes in terms of user satisfaction, participat
When ill the individual faces the options of seeking health care, using self-medication or doing nothing. In an economic perspective, an individual's propensity to utilise health care is determined by the costs of utilisation and the perceived benefits of health care. The propensity to utilise health care may hence be expected to vary between individuals. In this paper we attempt on the one hand t
Fungi have the capacity to cause devastating diseases of both plants and animals, causing significant harvest losses that threaten food security and human mycoses with high mortality rates. As a consequence, there is a critical need to promote development of new antifungal drugs, which requires a comprehensive molecular knowledge of fungal pathogenesis. In this review, we critically evaluate curre
Using Swedish firm-level data on all firms and their affiliates abroad, we investigate what observable firm and country characteristics affect the size of an affiliate in a particular destination. We employ the richness of the data to investigate the importance of destination country factors in explaining firm outward FDI activities and distinguish between the factors that affect such activities i

Declining bond yields and rising public debts have caused many economists to suggest raising the debt ceiling in the EU’s Stability and Growth Pact. Implicitly, they argue for replacing GDP as the anchor with the bond yield. We discuss the risks of such a shift. While such a change would provide short-term relief to highly indebted EU member states, it is based on the expectation that bond yields
We describe a laboratory exercise that is designed to give advanced undergraduate students in analytical chemistry a meaningful introduction to biological mass spectrometry. We ask the students to solve a mystery: given two proteins, what are they, and from which animals do they originate? This exercise involves use of two mass spectrometers available in our institution: a fairly basic matrix-assi
