Rivningarna I svenska stadskärnor efter andra världskriget, de så kallade saneringarna, är kontroversiella.

Ibland rev man enskilda fastigheter som dömts ut, ibland var det slumbebyggelse och ibland var det stora stenhus som hade gått att renovera och höja standarden på. De mes

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka hur jag genom begränsningar kunde förenkla min kompositionsprocess. Jag genomförde kvalitativa intervjuer med tre kompositörer av olika bakgrund om vilka ramar och regler de använder när dem komponerar.

Uppsatsen sökte besvara frågeställningarna: The purpose of this study was to examine how I could simplify my compositional process through limitations. I implemented qualitative interviews with three composers with different backgrounds about which frameworks and rules they use when they compose.

Lesion detection is a critical task for medical image understanding. While the problem has been widely addressed in a supervised semantic segmentation manner, the problem clinically appears more similar to novelty detection with few or no annotations for the lesion.

Uppsatsen behandlar vilka möjligheter avtalsparter i en företagsöverlåtelse, där friskrivningsklausuler används i stor utsträckning, har att friskriva sig från ansvar enligt köplagen. Utgångspunkten är den kritik som framförts mot HDs praxis från NJA 2016 s. 237 (Lindorffmålet), där en friskrivningsklausul underkändes trots att utformningen är mycket lik en klausul som godkändes i NJA 1975 s. 545This essay examines which possibilities contracting parties in a corporate acquisition have of using disclaimer clauses to regulate responsibilities in regards to the Swedish Sale of Goods Act. Starting point is the criticism directed towards the precedent set in NJA 2016 s. 237 (the Lindorff case) by the Swedish Supreme Court, which disapproved a disclaimer clause despite its similarity to a cla

Prostitutionen och lagstiftningen kring den har varit och är ett ämne för ständig debatt. När Sverige 1999 införde en kriminalisering som endast riktade sig mot köparen var en sådan lösning den första av sitt slag i världen.

It is a huge challenge for any strategic communicator to reach its audience as they are constantly overwhelmed with information. A current trend is to create so-called deepfakes, where a photo, audio, or video can be manipulated while making it feel authentic.
