The Brazilian tax system is known to be very complex. The main reasons to that is presumably the fact that the federalist pact adopted by the Brazilian Federal Constitution gives a considerable autonomy to all federal entities (the federal government, the states, the Federal District and the municipalities) to impose levies. Besides that, the Brazilian tax system is composed by numerous levies, su

Allt fler organisationer med en house of brands arkitektur, vilket kännetecknas av att företagsvarumärket döljs bakom flertalet olika fristående, välkända produktvarumärken, har på senare tid lagt ner stora resurser på att kommunicera det övergripande företagsvarumärket. Således kan ett skifte och en ny trend identifieras i hur organisationer med denna struktur interagerar med sin marknad.

We decompose the monthly Swedish consumer confidence index into a rational part based on fundamentals and an irrational part based on exogenous, irrational beliefs.

Surrogate motherhood and whether it should be legalized or not, has been a controversial area in Sweden. Swedish law has not any evident legislation prohibiting surrogate motherhood, but existing law can be interpreted as not allowing such arrangements. Due to that, many couples in Sweden are going abroad in order to implement surrogate arrangements. Therefore, some problems have occurred when the

In this thesis, a holographic model for quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is used to estimate the electromagnetic contribution to the kaon mass difference. The principal ideas of the model are inspired by the AdS/CFT correspondence, which is believed to be exact. The calculation is first performed theoretically, highlighting the expansion of the result into a diagrammatic structure referred to as Witte

EU:s regelverk om offentlig upphandling uppdaterades 2014 och snart kommer uppdateringen i den svenska lagtexten. Det blir nu ännu tydligare att det är tillåtet att ställa miljökrav vid offentlig upphandling. Det är en vanlig uppfattning att det inte går att upphandla varor, tjänster och byggnadsverk med bättre miljöprestanda eftersom att de traditionellt sett inte kan konkurrera med kriteriet ”This is a master’s thesis about green public procurement (GPP) in the construction sector, based on a legal dogmathic study and a case study. The legal dogmathic part focused on both EU-legislation and on Swedish legislation. The case study was performed on the municipal of Lund to understand how a small authority works with GPP.

Social network analysis is utilized to explore the structure and connections of the extreme right. This is followed by

Återställning av alvarlandskapet – en studie om Degerhamns kalkstensbrott När ett stenbrott avslutas börjar arbetet med att så gott som möjligt återskapa det landskapet som fanns innan brytningen. Min studie har undersökt hur detta ska gå till i ett kalkstensbrott i Degerhamn på södra Öland. Detta är en mycket viktig fråga då området på södra Öland internationellt sett är en mycket unik naturtypWhen a quarry closes measurements must be taken to recreate the landscape that originally was there. Old quarries are filled with water and are called artificial lakes. The aim of the study is to compare the water quality in three artificial lakes within a limestone quarry in Degerhamn, Öland with an alvar lake outside the quarry, in order to aid the restoration of the original landscape. The goal

Nyskapad ängsmark norr om Lund ökar artrikedomen i jordbrukslandskapet Ängsmarker och deras växter har minskat drastiskt under de senaste århundradet men på MAX-området strax norr om Lund försöker man skapa en ängsmark genom att hämta hö från en närliggande artrik gräsmark och sprida ut på det nya stället. 85 av de drygt 200 arter som kan ingå i höet, varav flera utrotningshotade, har lyckats etaThis study investigates if transfer of plant material in the form of hay is an effective method for establishment of species rich grassland on former arable land in southwestern Scania, Sweden.

Under arbetet har en ny emissionsspärr, cTrap undersökts. cTrap appliceras för att förbättra inomhusluften genom att enkelsidigt absorbera önskade biprodukter från byggnadsdelar. cTrap har testats angående dess mögelresistens vid ingjutning mellan en avjämningsmassa och ett betongbjälklag. Totalt har tolv stycken provkroppar gjutits med olika tjocklekar, vilket ger olika förutsättningar för mögelpDuring several weeks a new emission barrier, cTrap was tested for its ability to withstand mould growth when placed between a concrete slab and a layer of self-levelling flooring compound, SLC. A total of twelve SLC slabs were casted with two different types of SLC and with different thickness and basis. Half of the SLC slabs had a vapour barrier placed between the basis of concrete and cTrap. The
