This thesis seeks to analyse the current legal regime on copyright and trade marks in relation to classic European folklore, specifically fairy tales; and to verify whether this regime satisfies the European Union’s goals to safeguard cultural heritage in light of intellectual property protection. For that purpose, the thesis proposes a review of legislation, case law, and literature. It departs f
Abstract Title: Knowledge of the Fundamentals of Supply Chain Management – Design and Assessment of an Educational and Pedagogical Tool Authors: Ana Carolina Ramalheira Correia, Areej Ribhi Ibrahim Al-Sabban Background: Traditional pedagogical methods in supply chain management (SCM) education often fail to effectively engage learners, resulting in reduced motivation, limited knowledge retention o
Globalized economics have resulted in intricate global value chains carrying systemic risks of adverse human rights impacts. To address this, the EU adopted the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) in June 2024, establishing mandatory human rights due diligence for covered companies. However, following a regulatory simplification agenda aimed at reducing corporate administrativ
This thesis examines the relationship between gender and corruption within Swedish municipalities. While Sweden is frequently associated with honest governance, concerns regarding corruption have increased in recent years, particularly in municipalities due to their corruption-prone operations. Previous research remains divided on whether women reduce corruption or if the relationship is better ex
SI Engine knock is caused by autoignition in the unburnt part of the mixture (end-gas) ahead of the propagating flame. Autoignition of the end-gas occurs when the temperature and pressure exceeds a critical limit when comparatively slow reactions - releasing moderate amounts of heat - transform into ignition and rapid heat release. In this paper the difference in the heat released in the end-gas
Although much research during the past decades highlight how European filmmakers negotiate European identities, few studies go behind the scenes of existing pan-European film institutions in which different agents debate the meaning of these concepts. By utilizing a synthesis of discourse analysis and ethnographical analysis–– observing jury deliberations, interviewing leading figures, and studyin
The subject matter of the thesis is the comprehensive - legal and multidisciplinary - analysis of the terms 'peoples' and 'minorities' in international law. The argument of the author proceeds in four parts: the Problematique which deals with the 'minority challenge' and the international normative response to that challenge; the Critique, criticizing the basic underlying assumptions of the discou
The thesis addresses the question of how to mitigate climate change by studying the emergence of solar photovoltaic energy as an example of a low carbon industry. By outlining the social conditions behind the growth of that industry, I aim to further the understanding of low carbon industrial development in general. The dissertation is a historical comparative study of solar photovoltaic developme
While largely studied in the macroscopic scale, the dynamics leading to the nucleation and fission of atmospheric aerosols are very poorly understood at the nano or molecular scale. A model system consisting on ionized hydrogen-bonded ammonia and water molecules have been studied experimentally using mass- and 3D momentum spectroscopy and theoretically using ab initio molecular dynamics simulation
The effect of electroporation parameters on the reversible permeabilization of cells in Thai basil leaves and, specifically, cells on the leaf surface was investigated, as electroporation of stomatal guard cells decreases drying times. Various combinations of PEF and MEF parameters were applied. The effect of these parameters on the electroporation of the leaf surface was assessed with microscopic
