Within recent years, the concept of Humanitarian Innovation (HI) has emerged and received growing attention within the humanitarian system as a critical means of adapting to growing complexities, uncertainties and resource scarcity. While perceived as a means of stimulating broader system changes and increasing effectiveness and efficiency of humanitarian assistance, current efforts of HI have met

Popular Abstract in Swedish Sammanfattning I debatter och forskning om narkotikapolitik anges den svenska och nederländska modellen ofta som ett motsatspar. Såväl målet för, som utformningen av, narkotikapolitiken har framställts som radikalt olika. Detta synsätt kan sägas vara riktigt. Målet för den svenska narkotikapolitiken är att skapa ett narkotikafritt samhälle. Den nederländska strävar efteIn debates about the Swedish and Dutch drug policies are usually positioned as opposites. The goal for the Swedish drug policy is to create a 'drug-free society'; while in the Netherlands a harm reduction approach prevails. In this study a drug policy is considered a practice of formal social control that can develop differently depending on the contexts in which it emerged. The period studied sta

Water-soluble chlorophyll-binding proteins (WSCPs) are interesting model systems for the study of pigment-pigment and pigment-protein interactions. While class IIa WSCP has been extensively studied by spectroscopic and theoretical methods, a comprehensive spectroscopic study of class IIb WSCP was lacking so far despite the fact that its structure was determined by X-ray crystallography. In this pa

The present study is a comparative analysis of the effects of the Open Method of Coordination (OMC) through the i2010 eGovernment Action Plan on two categories of EU member states: leaders and laggers, the latter of which has been divided into two categories. It examines the development of eGovernment within the categories mentioned above based on the EU‟s annual eGovernment benchmark reports. Fur

A vibronic exciton model is applied to explain the long-lived oscillatory features in the two-dimensional (2D) electronic spectra of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson (FMO) complex. Using experimentally determined parameters and uncorrelated site energy fluctuations, the model predicts oscillations with dephasing times of 1.3 ps at 77 K, which is in a good agreement with the experimental results. These lon

Background: Pro-inflammatory cytokines can affect intracellular lipid metabolism. A variety of effects have been described for different cell types; hepatocyte lipid turnover pathways are inhibited during inflammation, whereas interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta) reduces intracellular cholesterol levels in fibroblasts. Levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1 beta and tumour necrosis factor-alpha (

In 2001 the Doha Round Talks was initiated by the World Trade Organization. Development was the overarching goal. For several developing countries with a comparative advantage in agriculture, trade with such products is seen as essential to economic growth and thus development. In order to spur this development it appears to be particularly important that developing countries have increased access

This thesis investigates the Designated Operational Entities (DOEs) under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) of the Kyoto Protocol. The DOEs serves as independent third-party auditors with the task of validating, verifying and certifying projects under the CDM. The majority of the DOEs are private entities. This is in line with the CDM objective of including the private sector in the climate ch

The role of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) in world politics in general, and in the United Nations (UN) in particular, is increasingly gaining the attention by scholars of international law, political science and social anthropology. In this study the NGO-UN relation is investigated within the area of Human Rights. This is done by examining how NGOs are perceived by member states within the

The aim of my study is to critically analyse the discourse behind two different integration projects in Sweden, by using post colonial theory. My hypothesis is that many projects intended for increased integration includes a view of immigrants as the ?Others? which can be seen in how one talks about integration and culture in the discourse behind integration projects. The first of these two proje

While the huge success of the European Union have, without doubt, drawn new attentions to several other exercises in regional integration in other parts of the world, the public popularity toward the European Union by its citizens is, ironically, at a relative low level - the support level of the membership is around 50 per cent with some yearly fluctuation as indicated by the Eurobarometer. Thus

The purpose of this work is to map what inspiration means to people who work with music, how it feels when you are inspirated compared to how it feels when you`re not. How does inspiration affect us? Are we depending on it? What do you do when you lack inspiration? Is it possible to ?inspire? one self? My method has been to interview eight persons, selected by me, who all work with music. I have u

This study of pro-poor solid waste management (conducted in Manila 2006) look at waste both as a health problem and as a livelihood for the poor. Pro-poor solid waste management policies optimize social- environmental- and economic benefits for the poor. In practice, this mean creating job-security for informal waste-pickers (scavengers), establish subsidies to community based recycling schemes an

This thesis aims to examine how the electoral system affects the behaviour of the political elites in an African context. My hypothesis is that different electoral system presents different incentives to political elites and that these incentives affect their behaviour, contributing to the formation of a specific political culture, more or less beneficial for the consolidation of democracy. The st

The G20 leaders forum was created as a response to the economic and financial crisis of 2008-2009. However, well before the crisis, calls for a new order in global economic governance had mounted as the credibility and importance of existing patterns of global governance had waned. Accordingly, the G20 replaced the G7 for dealing with international economic matters and designated itself as the pre
