In the Uzbek cotton industry run by the state under the country’s president Islam Karimov, children as young as the age of 7 have been forced to work under awful conditions picking cotton to fulfill stately quotas for years. In 2007 it was discovered that clothes sold by the multinational Swedish company H&M partly contained cotton from the Uzbek cotton industry. From an assumption that a viol

Uppsatsens syfte är att kartlägga om det föreligger ett samband mellan transparens, i form av handlingar och kommunikation som frivilligt används för att öka insikt i företag, och företags kapitalstruktur. Även andra faktorers betydelse studeras i form av ägarkoncentration samt börs- och branschtillhörighet. Sambanden undersöks genom att data har insamlats från sekundära källor i form av årsredovi

In response to the challenges that modern societies pose for citizen participation in representative democracies, theories of participatory democracy are experiencing a revival. Whereas the means suggested to reach the participatory end are numerous, focus is on the local level and its potential to serve as a breeding ground for the enhancement of political citizen participation. For the same reas

The purpose of our study was to examine the effect of cognitive preparation during audio-feedback in a single-session treatment for social anxiety in a non-clinical sample. Participants in the study were recruited among high school students with high self-rated social anxiety. The study was conducted with a between-groups and repeated measure design. In total 41 participants were randomized to an

The critical discourse analysis demonstrates that when we say something, we do something as well. By using the critical discourse analysis on the office of the Chancellor of Justice investigation against Roma, this paper shows how the communicative event affects Roma’s social practice in the EU-countries. Roma is a marginalized group with a major impact on the EU-countries, which has lead the EU-c

Organisational learning is assumed to be a part of creating improved work processes in an organisation. This type of learning can be difficult to achieve in operational and reactive work environments. Challenges in observable causality, time constraints and complex external conditions means that the operational control room is one of those reactive work environments. There is a need for a system t

I detta arbete granskas den svenska bevisrättens öppna utformning genom att jämföra den med det för den amerikanska bevisrätten centrala fallet Mapp v. Ohio. I fallet etablerades en exkluderingsregel vars syfte var att begränsa användningen av regelvidrigt införskaffad bevisning i brottmål. Fallet reser fundamentala frågor där man menar att bevisrätten inte bara bör utformas efter vad som fungerarThis study scrutinizes the Swedish theory of evidence, or lack thereof, through a side by side comparison of the US landmark case of Mapp v. Ohio contrasted with the Swedish law of evidence. Said case establishes an exclusionary rule entailing limitations on the usage of ill-gotten evidence on the part of state actors in criminal cases. It shows that the laws of evidence should not simply be a mat

Aktiebolagslagen har funnits med i svensk rätt sedan 1848 och har sedan dess reglerat olika relevanta delar inom ett aktiebolag och dess inre rättsförhållanden, medan lagstiftaren lämnat aktiebolagets yttre relationer i stor del åt bolagsorganen att själva avtala om. Ett av områdena som regleras i aktiebolagslagen är bolagsordningen. Bolagsordningen är aktiebolagets styrdokument och reglerar dess

Stock binds capital and this should be of highest concern for companies to minimize. Therefore it is important to design their reorder points in such way that service levels are met while keeping as low capital as possible. How well do the most common dimensioning methods perform with respect to the capital in safety stock and how the parameter is set in the best-of-breed methods to meet a given s

The purpose of this study was to illuminate the relation between control and volunta-riness in drug rehabilitation programs, as viewed from the perspective of therapists within two types of programs: The Twelve step program and the Milieu therapy pro-gram. Drug rehabilitation programs in Sweden are mostly based on voluntary partici-pation. However, the actual degree of voluntariness in these progr

Under de senaste årtionden har företagsformen aktiebolagsrätt varit en mycket populär form att bedriva näringsverksamhet på, detta såväl internationellt som nationellt. Det mest karakteristiska draget för aktiebolag är det begränsande ansvaret. Det begränsade ansvaret innebär att en aktieägare som huvudregel inte riskerar mer en det satsade kapitalet. Den privata förmögenhetsmassan är således skilIn recent decades, the form of limited company has been a very popular way to conduct business on, this both international and national. The most characteristic feature for the limted company is the limited liability. The limited liability means that shareholders as a rule do not risk more than the invested capital. The private furtune is thus seperated from the company's assets. The general r

Social norms in society dictate desirable behaviour according to the social environment. To break the law is often considered to go against these norms and the legal system imposes measures which in certain cases lead to incarceration for the person who has committed a crime. To break social and legal norms can lead to exclusion and even stigmatization. This thesis aims to examine which consequenc
