Our purpose with this paper was to describe how children experience and use curses and swearwords in the school environment, compared to the perspectives of adults and surrounding society. The main questions were: How common is cursing and swearing in the school environment and which factors are it influenced by? What do curses and swearwords mean for children and adults in today's society and
Purpose The purpose of this essay was to investigate the welfare level of five visually handicapped children and their families. I want to illustrate the obstacles and possibilities there are for the visually handicapped children to take part of the welfare that's indicated in the Swedish Government Official Report (SoU 2001:55). I also want to give a picture of the support the society gives t

Skiljeförfarandet har länge varit och kommer även i framtiden vara ett mycket attraktivt alternativ av konfliktlösning inom näringslivet. Framför allt p.g.a. dess effektivitet. I svensk rätt kan en skiljedom vara ogiltig vid uppenbara överträdelser av konkurrensrätten så som stridande mot ordre public. Efter EG-domstolens uttalande i Eco Swiss-målet har det dock ifrågasatts om kravet på uppenbarheInternational commercial arbitration has for a long time been and will continue to be an attractive form of dispute resolution for businesses. This is mainly due to its effectiveness. In Sweden an award might be annulled when the arbitrators grossly violates competitive law as a means of public policy. After the European Court of Justice’s judgement in the Eco Swiss-case has the question been rais
Fara för trichotecener i spannmål? med fokus på T-2/HT-2 Det går att undvika bekämpningsmedel i våra livsmedel eftersom det finns ekologiskt odlade livsmedel. Däremot går det inte att undvika mykotoxiner. De bildas av svampar. I spannmål påträffas bland annat mykotoxinet T-2/HT-2 som tillhör mykotoxingruppen trichotecener och kommer från svampsläktet Fusarium. Riskanalys är den vedertagna metodenThe process of how a maximum level is created for mycotoxins in the European Union is described here. The focus is on the mycotoxin T-2/HT-2 that is formed by Fusarium, a fungus that infects grains. T-2/HT-2 has been an issue for a long time without having a maximum level. This literature study will give an overview of how the process of creating a maximum level works. Risk analysis is the name
Representations of librarians have appeared in popular culture for a long time. Previous research has found that the most common image of the librarian is the spinster, but only a smaller part of the research has focused on the underlying causes. Drawing inspiration from Radford and Radfords (1997) article ”Power Knowledge and Fear: Feminism, Foucault and the Stereotype of the Female Librarian”, t
Indonesien har ratificerat de viktiga internationella mänskliga rättigheter-traktaten som ålägger stater att eliminera diskriminering av kvinnor – CEDAW, ICCPR och ICESCR. Ändå existerar omfattande diskriminering av kvinnor i landet, underblåst särskilt av lokala regleringar som tillkommit genom den starka regionala autonomin. Dessa regleringar, antagna på provins-, region- eller stadsnivå, bryterIndonesia has ratified the crucial international human rights treaties obligating states to eliminate discrimination against women – the CEDAW, the ICCPR and the ICESCR. Yet discrimination against women exists in Indonesia, especially fuelled by local regulations able to arise due to the country’s strong regional autonomy. Enacted either at province, regency or city level, these regulations contra
This paper explores how effective the Danish Greencard opt-out is in impeding the process of Europeanization. It investigates the cases of the Danish Greencard scheme and the German EU Blue Card directive in order to determine if national Danish sovereignty has been preserved through this opt-out. Opt-outs and high-skill migration are some of the most under evaluated topics within the field of Eur
Reparera mera – en svensk möjlighet att förlänga livstiden på produkter Genom att reparera din produkt istället för att köpa en ny bidrar du till att råmaterial besparas, de globala ekosystemen bevaras och växthusgasutsläppen minskas – och du får dessutom möjlighet att bruka din produkt under en längre tid! Reparation utgör därmed en viktig del i omställningen från dagens linjära ekonomi, som byggTo reduce the use of resources, as well as to minimize the effluents of carbon dioxide; we need to use our products for a longer time. Repairs makes that possible and is considered a key strategy to move towards a more circular economy (CE). Sweden recently presented its CE action plan, which includes few direct initiatives that would foster repairs. Therefore, through a literature review, policy
Digitala nomader är personer som genom distansarbete och digitala kommunikationsmedel skapar sig geografisk frihet och flexibilitet. Arbetssättet gör att personen i princip kan arbeta platsoberoende så länge en internetuppkoppling finns. Distansarbete är en ökande trend i samhället. År 2014 införde till exempel Estland ett digitalt e-medborgarskap, och blev först ut i världen med att erbjuda ett sDigital nomads are people who create geographical freedom and flexibility through teleworking and digital means of communication. The working method means that the person can, in principle, work independently as long as there is an internet connection. Teleworking is a growing trend in society, and, for example, Estonia introduced a digital e-citizenship in 2014 and became the first in the world t
The aim of this master’s thesis is to increase knowledge about how Swedish research libraries work with special collections, in aspects of preservation and user availability. Currently there is no general regulation in Swedish law regarding special collections, which may cause inconsistency in the management of collections. In order to illustrate this problem, and investigate what commission resea
Social media (SM) use in crisis and disaster management (CDM) is resource-intensive and can overwhelm emergency management authorities (EMAs). Digital voluntarism offers SM capacities for EMAs. A significant approach to reap benefits from digital voluntarism for domestic CDM is introducing Virtual Operations Support Teams (VOSTs). While VOSTs have been proven valuable in increasing capacities, the
Vår kropp är uppbyggd av biljontals celler, men utan kommunikation och samarbete dem emellan skulle kroppen och dess livsviktiga processer inte fungera. Denna kommunikation äger till stor del rum på cellernas yta, det så kallade cellmembranet, som alltså inte bara fungerar som en barriär mellan cellerna. Här finns nämligen flera olika molekyler och proteiner som sköter en stor del av kommunikationProteoglycans are important macromolecules located on the human cell surfaces. They have many different and important roles in communication between cells. These roles are especially important for cancer development and the survival of tumor cells and these proteoglycans are, therefore, interesting to study. The proteoglycans are made up of a protein core to which glycosaminoglycan chains are boun
Despite that transports contribute to around a quarter of all global energy-related CO2 emissions, the question of how the sector’s emissions are best reduced remains unclear. To fill this gap, this thesis investigates what both academia and the Swedish Climate Policy Council recommend to be the best ways of reducing transport emissions. These findings are then compared with the mobility strategie
Är Spinoza en mystiker? Mystik anses traditionellt höra samman med en tro att förståelse och kännedom om Gud kommer till en genom en Uppenbarelse som förenar människan med en transcendent och övernaturliga Gud. Enligt Spinoza´s filosofi nås förståelse av Gud genom ökad självförståelse, så det är inte svårt att se hur han kan ha tolkats som en mystiker. Men å andra sidan är det helt oförståeligt efIs Spinoza a mystic? Spinoza´s philosophy clearly relates to the concept of understanding God, through the self, so it is not hard to see why it has been argued that he may have been a mystic. On the other hand, it makes no sense at all since he is considered to be one of the most rational philosophers of the Modern Age and Spinoza´s God is neither transcendent nor supernatural and therefore he is
Recent development of case law emphasises the need to strike a fair balance between intellectual property rights and other fundamental rights. In theory, balancing of various fundamental rights is not a new concept. However, in practice, striking a fair balance between intellectual property rights and other fundamental rights is quite a new and problematic issue due to digitalisation, which has cr
Föreställ er att vi i Sverige skulle legalisera det egna bruket av narkotika. Det skulle bli lagligt att snorta kokain, att skjuta upp heroin eller att röka marijuana. Vad skulle detta innebära för svensk Polis, sett ur ett tvångsmedelsperspektiv? Toleransen i Sverige gentemot droger är väldigt låg. Narkotikafrågan har under en längre tid varit, och är fortfarande, högprioriterad hos regering ochImagine that we, in Sweden, would legalise the personal use of drugs. It would be legal to snort cocaine, to shoot up some heroine or smoke marijuana. What would this mean for the Swedish law enforcement, from a "means of enforcement" point of view? The Swedish tolerance when it comes to drugs is very low. It has for a long time been, and still remains, a top priority for the governmen
EU:s konkurrensrätt och dess amerikanska motsvarighet har ursprung som på många sätt skiljer sig från varandra. Men systemen har många likheter, och dessa verkar öka i takt med att världen blir alltmer globaliserad. Somliga ser till och med den moderniseringsprocess som genomfördes 2004 som ett uttryck för att EU accepterat delar av det amerikanska sättet att se på och tillämpa konkurrensrätten. As globalization is emerging, competition law has grown from being mainly a national matter to a global concern. Starting from different traditions, EU competition law has moved towards U.S. competition law in some ways, yet not in others. Some consider the modernization process of EU competition law, initiated in 2004, an acceptance of U.S. antitrust thinking by embracing a more economic approa
This paper investigates the effects of working overtime on health. Overtime has previously been examined in this context mainly as a one-dimensional variable. This paper takes into account the multi-dimensional character of this factor. In addition to solely relating overtime to a health measure, this paper focuses discretely on the remuneration, the regularity, and the temporal extent of overtime
