From a market perspective, Japan is interesting for Swedish companies, especially those with sustainable and digital capabilities. However, the Japanese market is complex, with high quality demands and deep relationships, which require foreign companies to understand how their assets transfer locally. This thesis explores how ten Swedish subsidiaries in Japan use sustainability and digitalization

This thesis focuses on the experiences of Christian women in the Netherlands regarding their religion, faith and daily lives – especially within the (envisioned) family. Through Bible study discussions and individual interviews, 11 women shared how they navigated the traditional systems at work within each of these spheres, how they negotiated their own understandings of each and how they would ch

For decades, entrepreneurs faced the same trade-off: either pursue cost leadership and grow fast through various scaling strategies or pursue differentiation strategies by emphasizing personalization of their services to customers. Nevertheless, the situation has changed when new technologies such as artificial intelligence, rising computing power, digitization of firms, or cloud services started

Biodiversity Credits have received substantial attention as an innovative financial mechanism that can attract private financial capital towards biodiversity conservation and restoration. To explore this potential, the thesis examines how key market actors perceive the drivers and incentives (RQ1), as well as barriers and challenges (RQ2) of this emerging market. To answer these questions, a quali

This study explores the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) frameworks within public hospitals in Ghana, focusing on the institutional pressures influencing ESG adoption and their impact on healthcare professionals’ daily operations. It also considers the alignment of these practices with selected United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Addressing gaps in the li

Uppsatsen undersöker EU:s åtgärder mot penningtvätt och finansiering av terrorism (AML-direktiven) och dess förenlighet med rätten till privatliv och dataskyddsregler. Då långtgående befogenheter att behandla personuppgifter för brottsprevention och upptäckande av penningtvätt traditionellt sätt har tillhört brottsbekämpande verksamhet ställer uppsatsen frågan huruvida AML-direktiven ger befogenheThe thesis explores the EU’s anti-money laundering framework’s compatibility with conditions required under privacy rights. It asks the question whether the anti-money laundering framework confers obligations to private entities and other actors not belonging to law enforcement in a way which risks violation to the fundamental rights to privacy and data protection. The thesis elucidates the signif

The study has explored the teams’ perceptions of driving forces and challenges of psychological safety (PS) in three different work-setting arrangements (WSAs), which are remote, hybrid, and on-site. These findings were discovered by interviewing three teams, each of which worked in different WSAs, and by asking them questions about what factors influence their PS. After that, thematic analysis wa

This study investigates the effects of violating deontic constraints on the Japanese conditional markers to and ba. Via an online survey, native speakers reviewed sentences containing violations of these constraints, evaluating their own ability to understand the sentence and the proficiency of the sentences’ authors. Additionally, they were asked to correct sentences they rated poorly, and determ

Immunotherapy aims to enhance the immune system’s response to cancer. Different immunotherapies exist, such as cytokine therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors. The FDA has approved immunomodulatory drugs, such as Proleukin, a recombinant IL-2 cytokine, Nivolumab, and Avelumab, which are immune checkpoint inhibitors. However, these drugs lead to side effects in patients known as immune-related

In an era of globalization, where decision-making transcends national boundaries, it is crucial to recognize the importance of individual participation in shaping the international legal sphere. This recognition becomes even more critical in the 21st century, as we are faced with the need to respond to global challenges and emergencies that demand the collaboration of diverse actors. The inclusive

In Sweden, household preparedness is central to crisis management, but local, comprehensive data on it is largely lacking. Additionally, in academia, there is uncertainty around the correlations between actual (AHP) and perceived household preparedness (PHP). This study aims to address both these issues through the exploration of a more comprehensive framework to assess household preparedness. The

The genetic underpinnings of ecological adaptations, such as host-plant use in herbivorous insects, is a vital area of research in evolutionary biology because they reveal how phenotypic variation arises and the extent to which this can happen through parallel mechanisms. This study provides unique insights into the genomic basis and gene expression changes in Tephritis conura's adaptation to

Critical theories, specifically feminist, postcolonial, and development theories, inform and shape much of the practice of international development, by both criticising current conventions and procedures as well as introducing new ways of thinking. One current frontier within development practice involves reimagining Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) practices according to feminist princ

Den här uppsatsen undersöker de avancerade metoder av effektivt innovationsskydd under företagskoncentrationsprövningar som finns i USA och EU. Syftet är att finna synergier mellan dessa två system och föreslå nödvändiga förbättringar av det europeiska systemet genom att introducera innovation som en reell standard för prövning, inkludera dynamisk effektivitet, omstörtande innovation och icke-pris

The UN 2030 agenda for sustainable development acknowledges the essential role of financial inclusion in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and reducing inequality. African countries have made substantial progress in economic development and financial inclusion over the last two decades, yet there is still considerable need for further development.
