In the later Middle Ages there was a vivid activity of preaching at the Abbey of Vadstena. Apart from the ordinary Sunday preaching at High Mass, or in connection to it, there were a number of feasts due to the saints. At heart of the medieval pastoral theology was The Way of Salvation and the conundrum was how to make people understand how to correct their living in order to get into Heaven as qu

Med 1944 års djurskyddslag införs de första djurförsöksbestämmelserna i svensk rätt. Debatten om djurförsökens reglering hade då under lång tid varit föremål för ett flertal motioner i den svenska riksdagen, utan att resultera i någon lagstiftning. Genom att försöka kontextualisera bestämmelserna söker jag svar på frågan vilka faktorer i den rättsliga utvecklingen som kan bidragit till tidpunkten The scientific use of animals is a complex question, in itself and in law. In this essay the rules regarding animal experimentation are studied through the lens of the legislator’s arguments as well as the historical context in which these rules first came about. Thus, this essay situate the Animal Protection Act of 1944 in its historical context, as well as analyzing the arguments on the use of a

Vid marktekniska undersökningar i finkorniga jordar är det av stor vikt att korrekt kunna bestämma den odränerade skjuvhållfastheten. Detta görs idag vanligtvis ute i fält med en uppsjö av sonderingsmetoder som ger olika mått på hur fast jorden är. För homogena leror och sand finns det en stadig empirisk grund för hur dessa sonderingsparametrar räknas om till odränerad skjuvhållfasthet, men hur seThe undrained shear strength is a key parameter in the design process of geotechnical structures. One of the most frequently used methods to investigate this parameter is the cone penetration test (CPT). The CPT does not measure the undrained shear strength directly, but instead the resistance that a conic probe encounters as it is pushed into the ground. A calibration factor, the cone factor (Nkt

Due to the public health threat that antibiotic resistance poses to humanity, there is increasing interest for understanding the mechanisms behind the development and transfer of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in different environments. Soil is one of the largest and most diverse microbial habitats on earth and represents a vast terrestrial reservoir of organisms with tolerance to antibiotics.

I Sverige stiftar den folkvalda riksdagen lag. Riksdagen får dock inte stifta vilka lagar den vill – dess kompetens inskränks av regler till skydd för mänskliga rättigheter. Idén om universella mänskliga rättigheter kommer från den så kallade naturrättsläran. Naturrättstänkare har sedan antiken argumenterat för att alla människor har vissa grundläggande fri- och rättigheter, oavsett om dessa stiftIn Sweden, the elected Riksdag is the legislator. However, the Riksdag may not pass just any law – its competence is limited by rules protecting human rights. The concept of universal human rights originates from the philosophical tradition of natural law. Natural law philosophers have argued, since Antiquity, that all humans have certain fundamental rights and liberties as a consequence of human

Idag ökar medellivslängden tack vare olika tekniska och medicinska framsteg. Globaliseringen fortsätter och det gränsöverskridande utbytet av varor, tjänster, arbetstagare och kapital ökar. I takt med att människan lever längre blir frågan om pensionssparande allt viktigare. I en internationell kontext är det angeläget för den enskilde att förstå hur beskattning av pensionsförsäkringar fungerar. Today, life expectancy increases thanks to various technological and medical advances. Globalization continues, and the cross-border exchange of goods, services, workers and capital is increasing. As we live longer, the question of pension savings becomes increasingly important. For anyone engaged in a cross-border situation, it is important to understand how taxation of pension insurance works.

Fästingburen hjärnhinneinflammation (TBE) är en allvarlig virussjukdom som i värsta fall kan leda till långvarig neurologiska skador (46% av fallen), och i enstaka fall, döden. Mer rumslig analys av TBE förekomst och modellering av baserat på infektioner och faktorer som temperatur och nederbörd kan bidra till att identifiera nya riskområden så att beslutsfattare inom folkhälsovården kan implementThe increasing prevalence of Tick-Borne Encephalitis (TBE) in Sweden is a cause of concern to both individuals and the public health service. The disease is spread via bites from the vector Ixodes ricinus and causes long-term neurological damage in 46% of cases. To date, research in this field has focussed on the relationship between climate and TBE incidence and there is little to no available re

På senare år har förekomsten av mjölk som koagulerar dåligt eller inte alls vid tillsats av löpe upptäckts. Denna, så kallade NC (icke-koagulerande), mjölk ger ett minskat ostutbyte vilket kan ge negativa följder både ur ett ekonomiskt och miljömässigt perspektiv. Ost är ett uppskattat livsmedel i Sverige, som för många utgör en del av den dagliga kosten. Det är kanske inte så konstigt med tanke Cheese products are an essential part of the human diet, consequently making the ability of milk to coagulate a critical part for the dairy industry. However, milk that coagulates poorly or not at all after the addition of rennet has been found among several dairy cattle breeds, including Swedish Red cows. This master thesis was therefore aimed to evaluate and compare a number of compositional, ph

Invasive species are currently one of the main causes of biodiversity loss across the globe and recent research has shown that the personality of an invader can have significant impacts on the invasion dynamics for that species. Therefore, this study examined the impact of personality on both competitive success and predation susceptibility of the highly invasive round goby (Neogobius melanostomus

Aberratio ictus kan åskådliggöras genom det kända typfallet där A har upp-såt att döda B, men missar och istället dödar C, gentemot vilken A inte har någon form av uppsåt. Med andra ord är konsekvensen av A:s gärning avvi-kande i förhållande till dennes uppsåt i det avseende att ”fel” angreppsob-jekt har drabbats. Det är ett klassiskt straffrättsligt problem vilket ännu tycks sakna en tillfredsstäAberratio ictus can be illustrated with a case, where A, with an intention to kill B, misfires and instead kills C, an unintended victim. The consequences of A’s action can be described as a deviation from his intention, as the result was indeed unintended. It is a classical problem in the field of criminal law. Even to this day the absence of a satisfying solution is evident. The Swedish doctrine

Framställningen behandlar domstolens ansvar för utredningen i brottmål och problematiken kring de skillnader som har uppstått mellan regleringen i rättegångsbalken och praxis bland domare. Enligt rättegångsbalken har domstolen tilldelats ett visst ansvar för att målet blir tillräckligt utrett. Bestämmelserna i rättegångsbalken har många år på nacken och härrör från en tid då åklagarväsendet inte vThis essay deals with the court’s responsibility for the investigation in connection to criminal cases, as well as the problems regarding the differences that have appeared between the regulation in rättegångsbalken (the Swedish criminal procedural act) and practice amongst judges. According to rättegångsbalken, the court has, to some degree, a responsibility to assure that the case is properly

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate if there are any differences regarding syntactic complexity in written language between persons with (phonologically based) reading and writing difficulties and a control group. Earlier research has pointed to such a difference, indicating that texts written by subjects with reading and writing difficulties display a lower grade of syntactic complexity

The aim of this study is to analyze the change of Basque nationalism during the last ten years and discuss how the main nationalist party (PNV) tries to impose "we"- feelings and support for its cause. Theories of nationalism and national identity are used in the analysis. A textual analysis of PNV:s unofficial documents is discussed and compared with a discourse analysis of its officia

Well-known economists as well as investors have examined anomalies on the stock exchange around the world for decades. Investors’ trying to beat the market in order to earn a quick buck or dollar is often what motivates them. With an investment strategy based merely on purchasing stocks with low price per earnings ratios it is said to be possible to beat the index. This so called price per earning

The end of the Cold War altered the international landscape. New insecurities, vast humanitarian crises, extended normative frameworks, and increased funding incited established and new international NGOs to expand their engagement in peace processes. In Nepal a failed democratization process during the 1990s regressed into a decade-long internal armed conflict. Today Nepal is undergoing a transit
