The aim of this case study of Malmo is to investigate the relations between the perceived density and the physical density by comparing areas with different densities and distance from the city center and to which extend this may be connected to social justice. In this essay, social justice is defined as an even distribution of resources, services and opportunities regardless of one’s geographical
Syftet med uppsatsen är att med rättshistorisk metod utreda abortlagstiftningens utveckling åren 1938–1975. Utredningen belyser sättet på vilket abolitionsbeslutet 1965 tillkom som en konsekvens av ett skifte i allmänhetens syn på abort och på kvinnans rätt till sin egen kropp samt hur detta manifesterade sig i efterföljande lagstiftning. Innan utredningen tar vid redogör uppsatsen för hur lagstThe aim of this thesis was to, by using a legal historical method, investigate the development of the Swedish abortion act between 1938 and 1975. The thesis examined in what way the decision of leniency in 1965 was a consequence of a change in the societal attitudes towards abortion and the woman’s right to her own body. Moreover, it examined how this has manifested itself in subsequent legislatio
Barn som tar del av socialtjänstens heldygnsinsatser, exempelvis genom att vara placerade i familjehem, har ofta traumatiska erfarenheter och hög prevalens av psykisk ohälsa. Många upplever svårigheter inom utbildning, arbetsliv och socialt liv upp i vuxen ålder, men tidiga insatser verkar kunna bryta denna negativa spiral. Dock saknas tillräckligt med evidens för att säkerställa effekten av de inChildren in the social services' out-of-home care, for example, those living in family homes, often have traumatic experiences and a high prevalence of mental illness. Many have difficulties in education, work and social life into adulthood, but early intervention can potentially break the negative spiral. However, there is a lack of evidence of potential effects of the interventions offered.
Sweden has a significant rental sector with about a third of the total number of households rented out. The intention of the rental market should be that it is accessible to all people in society, regardless of nationality or income. The general mediation of rental apartments today is through a queuing system, which in Stockholm shows that a queuing time can be up to half one's life. The alter

This study aimed to examine how social workers at child and family units within the Swedish municipal social services experience and manage their workload, as well as describe the opportunities to influence their work situation. The theoretical framework used was Hirschman’s theory of exit, voice, and loyalty and Karasek and Theorell’s demand-control-support model, supplemented with the concepts o
This study looks at how Agapi Boat Club, a company that offers boats through a membership service, affects consumer behavior in the boating industry. Instead of owning a boat, members pay to access a fleet of boats across different locations. This research explores whether people are choosing membership instead of owning a boat, and what this change means for the boating market. To find out, we c
This thesis investigates the application of machine learning and statistical methods for forecasting hourly public transport validations using ticket‐validation data. After cleaning and aggregating validations into hourly counts, temporal features such as hour of day, weekday, and month are engineered. The modeling approaches include long short‐term memory networks trained with mean absolute error
Under Nato-förhandlingarna väckte Turkiets president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan ännu en gång frågan om Turkiet kan bli välkomnat in i EU. Examensarbetet undersöker Turkiets tillkortakommanden gällande sitt anslutande till EU, med fokus på kurders mänskliga rättigheter genom att besvara frågeställningarna: hur ser kurders mänskliga rättigheter ut i Turkiet idag och vilka åtgärder behöver Turkiet göra förDuring the Swedish NATO negotiations, the Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan once again raised the question of whether Türkiye could be welcomed into the EU. This thesis examines Türkiye’s shortcomings concerning their EU accession, focusing on the human rights of Kurdish people by answering the research questions: what is the state of human rights of the Kurd-ish people in Türkiye, and what c
In the past, absolute monarchy was the most common form of government across the world. Since then, we have seen a great decline in this specific government type. However, in a world that still consists of several autocratic regimes, some absolute monarchies still remain. Not only do they exist in a time of democracy and autocracy, but they are also considered to be the most stable form of autocra
Klimatförändringarna förväntas påverka alla världens regioner negativt med bland annat intensifiering av lokala översvämningar och värmeböljor. För att förebygga dessa effekter är det avgörande att utveckla anpassningsbara och tåliga städer. Naturbaserade lösningar (NBS) har pekats ut som ett av de viktigaste verktygen i klimatanpassningsarbetet. Trots en ökad kunskap om NBS många fördelar kvarståThe ongoing climate changes pose a serious threat to both societies and ecosystems globally. Intensification of extreme weather, floods in combination with heat waves and droughts are some of the challenges that require adaptable and sustainable solutions. Nature-based solutions (NBS) have been identified as a powerful tool for creating resilient and sustainable cities by integrating natural proce
There is a strong need to replace animal-based experiments with in vitro alternatives. Mutz-3, a myeloid cell line, has been successfully used to investigate skin sensitization. A problem with in vitro assays, not only affecting Mutz-3, is the use of Fetal Bovine Serum for cell cultivation, as it is a serum supplement which is not fully defined, and it introduces variability in cell-based experime
In the field of automatic control, embedded Model Predictive Control (MPC) presents significant advantages, including efficiency, constraint incorporation, and non-causal setpoint handling. Despite its potential, the implementation of MPC in resource-constrained environments remains challenging due to its computational demands. This thesis explores the design and implementation of MPC within ABB’s
Satsningen på vindkraft som en del av Sveriges gröna omställning har lett till ökade etableringar i Sápmi, med konsekvenser för den samiska kulturen. Samiska företrädare har kopplat denna exploatering till det historiska fråntagandet av samisk mark och benämnt detta som grön kolonialism. Samtidigt är samerna särskilt drabbade av de klimatförändringar vindkraften är tänkt att motverka. Denna uppsaThe expansion of wind power as part of Sweden’s green transition has led to increased development in Sápmi, with consequences for Sámi culture. Sámi representatives have linked this exploitation to the historical dispossession of Sámi land and referred to it as green colonialism. At the same time, the Sámi people are particularly affected by the climate change that wind power is intended to mitiga
During the last decades the Swedish Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Services (CAP) has undergone major organizational changes. According to social research the changes are mainly due to new public management reforms. The aim of this study was to examine how social workers, i.e. psychiatry counsellors, experienced and coped with their working conditions within CAP. The method chosen for this study
Financial advisors use paper-based questionnaires to retrieve the information useful to address the clients toward the right financial products and investment mix. In 2004 the European Parliament issued the MiFID (Markets in Financial Instruments Directive) that has the objective to increase competition and investor protection, and levels the playing field for market participants in investment ser
The subject of this Master’s thesis is the management of electronic books at three Swedish public libraries. Current statistics about lending e-books have been gathered and supplemented by interviews with librarians and head librarians from the libraries in the study. Statistics and interviews are then analysed together with the library’s policy documents by using an institutional theory. The thes

En i praktiken vanligt förekommande situation är att driften av en offentlig verksamhet överlåts genom ett offentligt upphandlingsförfarande. Det kan då tänkas att den upphandlande myndigheten önskar säkerställa att de anställda erbjuds fortsatt sysselsättning hos den nya verksamhetsutövaren. Ett skäl till detta kan vara att den upphandlande myndigheten annars riskerar att få bära kostnader för iA common contemporary phenomenon is the transfer of the operation of public business through a public tendering process. In a public tender, the contracting authority may wish to ensure that its employees are offered continued employment with the new operator. The contracting authority may wish to do this because it might otherwise have to bear the costs of personnel not assumed by the new operato
