The provision and administration of high quality urban public green spaces intertwines issues of planning, design, management and maintenance with governance. The benefits of such spaces are often tied to social justice, public health and recreation, biodiversity and helping cities to deal with climate change. International policies and changes in public administration have encouraged user partici

The demands on library services are quickly changing in a continually updating digital age. This increases the importance of a good understanding of the needs and demands of the users. In order to sample and follow the change in user needs library organisations analyse their efforts using a series of different methods. In a recent survey distributed to all 301 European LIBER university libraries,

Educational and income gradients in health are well established in the literature but there is need for a better understanding of how mental health inequalities change over time, and what drives the development. We aim to study how psychiatric diagnosis and its income-related inequality have changed over time in Sweden and to make a first attempt at disentangling the development by decomposing any

Despite numerous studies of selection on position and number of spectral vision bands, explanations to the function of narrow spectral bands are lacking. We investigate dragonflies (Odonata), which have the narrowest spectral bands reported, in order to investigate what features these narrow spectral bands may be used to perceive. We address whether it is likely that narrow red bands can be used t

Consider the subspace Wn of L2(C, dA) consisting of all weighted polynomials W(z)=P(z)·e-12nQ(z), where P(z) is a holomorphic polynomial of degree at most n- 1 , Q(z) = Q(z, z¯) is a fixed, real-valued function called the “external potential”, and dA=12πidz¯∧dz is normalized Lebesgue measure in the complex plane C. We study large n asymptotics for the reproducing kernel Kn(z, w) of Wn; this depend

What will the low-carbon cities of tomorrow be made from? We see an unexpected answer today in the return of ‘premodern’/‘preindustrial’ materials to central cities and skylines. Champions of new mass timber materials have driven a race on iconic ‘plyscrapers’ and, increasingly, novel systems of industrial prefabrication. Drawing on the notion of sociotechnical imaginaries, we explore how advocate

Talented employees are important for companies, and graduate programs are designed to internal educate talented students to make them a strong resource for the company. A problem is that trainees tend to leave the company after the program. This master thesis investigates how trainees become motivated, during and after the program, to retain within the company and where the perceived expectation g

This is a bachelor essay written as a part of a social studies education. The purpose of this essay was to examine school counselor’s opinions about the alcohol and drug preventive interventions in high school. The study was made through a quantitative method. To collect empirical data, a survey was sent out through e-mail to 70 school counselors in Skåne County, which is in the south of Sweden. T

Antivirals for HPV infection Human papillomaviruses (HPV) are present in more than 99% of all cervical cancers and HPV-16 is one of the predominant types of HPV infections and account almost for 50% of cervical cancer cases. Although two vaccines are available on the market and showed notable promising in HPV prevention, there are still no available antiviral drugs for HPV infections. In this stu

De senaste åren har det förekommit flera uppmärksammade läckor från så kallade visselblåsare, både i Sverige och internationellt. För Sveriges del har läckorna framför allt rört oegentligheter hos myndigheter, oegentligheter som det ligger i allmänhetens intresse att ta del av. Visselblåsare riskerar trots det att hamna i utsatta situationer på grund av sitt handlande. Det är därför intressant att

Miljörätten är en väldigt speciell del i den svenska rätten, och när det gäller miljöstraffrätten och miljöbrott är detta ett väldigt komplext område. Från att tidigare ha varit en uppdelad miljölagstiftning på inte mindre än 16 lagar, till att efter reformationen 1999 samla alla dessa i en ny miljöbalk som från och med då skulle bli den centrala delen i Sveriges arbete mot en hållbar utveckling. Environmental law is a very special part of Swedish law, and in terms of environmental law and environmental crime, this is a very complex area. From having previously been a divided environmental legislation of no less than 16 laws, until after the 1999 reform, all of them gathered in a new environmental bar that would then become the central part of Sweden's work towards sustainable developm

I en värld med ökande befolkning och därmed en ökande användning av ändliga naturresurser så som olja och metaller blir det viktigare att fokusera på hållbarhet och förnyelsebara råvaror för att minimera exploatering av de ändliga naturresurserna. Ett naturligt steg inom färg och plastindustrin är därmed att öka användningen av förnyelsebara råvaror vid produktionen av färg och plaster. Genom att This study focus on the gelation process of 1-methylidene ethane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid (MIA) polyesters and what causes the gelation. The influence of oxygen during the syntheses, how the molecular weight is affected and how the polyester changes chemically was studied. Analytical methods used were SEC, titration and NMR. The replicability of the experiments was investigated and confirmed. Testing

I Sverige har den fria bevisprövningen varit en stark processrättslig princip alltsedan inkvisitionens legala bevisteori övergavs. En konsekvens av den fria bevisprövningen är att några förbud mot vilka bevis som får användas emot en tilltalad inte får uppställas, detta gäller oavsett anskaffningssättet. I kontrast finns inom den amerikanska rätten en utarbetad exkluderingsregel som innebär att beIn Sweden, the free assessment of evidence has been a strong principle of procedural law ever since the legal proof theory of the inquisition was abandoned. As a consequence, no exclusionary rule has developed, which means that all evidence has to be admitted at trial, regardless of the way in which it has been gained. In contrast, American law has developed a distinct exclusionary rule. Consequen

Children’s participation could seem to be an obvious ingredient in social services child protection investigations. Children’s rights to make their voice and opinion heard and to affect the decisions that involve them is stated in law, conventions and other regulations. Despite this, a lot of previous studies show that children’s rights often are forgotten or non-prioritized in social services. Th

This study is about the extent of how church law (of 1571, 1686 and 2000) in Sweden has affected and still affects the church's welfare administrations such as schools, hospitals and care institutions. Recent studies seem to indicate that the Church of Sweden is aiming to start expanding its organisation to include more social welfare activities to meet increasing demands from the general publ

The focus of this bachelor’s thesis is on ethnic Scandinavian women who have converted to Islam, and on which significance the addition of a Muslim identity component will have on the converts’ identity and life. Scandinavian society is characterised by freedom of worship for the individual, who thus has the right to practise any religion. The majority religion in Scandinavia through centuries ha

In Sweden 16 national goals have been elaborated to aim for an environmentally sustainable society. These goals should not only be implemented at a national level but also at the regional and community level. In Lund 13 documents have been developed, for 13 of the 16 national goals describing the environmental state in Lund associated to the goal in question. These documents will lead to local env

Uppsatsen redogör för rättsreglerna kring omplacering och turordning vid arbetsbristuppsägningar. Det finns ett omfattande regelverk kring anställningsskyddet i Sverige. Det reglerar hur arbetsgivare ska uppträda då uppsägningar ska äga rum. Det krävs saklig grund för att en arbetsgivare ska ha rätt att säga upp en arbetstagare. Detta framgår tydligt ur 7§ anställningsskyddslagen. För att sakligThis essay describes the legal rules regarding relocation and order of priority in connection with termination of employment due to redundancy. There are comprehensive regulations on employment protection in Sweden. It regulates how employers should act when the redundancies will take place. It requires grounds for dismissal for an employer to have the right to terminate an employee. This is evid
