There are limited writings about sick individuals and their diseases in the Synoptic Gospels. In my thesis I have studied the etiology of diseases, the sick individuals, and how their manifestations of disease convey an understanding of their situation. I have also studied differences between the three Synoptic Gospels in this regard. By using the method of a literary analytical approach, I ha

This thesis sets to interrogate the deployment of resource nationalism in the Turkish case, using the hydraulic project Güneydoğu Anadolu Projesi as a case study. While previous research has often determined resource nationalism through state-building and economic accumulation, the thesis challenges this literature by focusing on how conceptualizations of subjects and places are constructed in con

The purpose of this text is to, through a case study of Russia and Ukraine, analyze the relationship between effectivity of contract enforcement and regime type. The hypothesize is that authoritarian regimes in which incumbents’ power is more safely secured will have a more robust and independent judiciary than hybrid regimes, which will have a positive effect on contract enforcement. The analysis

Bakgrund. Covid-19 pandemin har skördat fler än fem miljoner liv världen över. Det finns svårigheter att identifiera vilka patienter som har covid-19 prehospitalt då symtomen är många och sjukdomsförloppet skiljer sig från patient till patient. Sjuksköterskor som arbetar med patienter med misstänkt eller konstaterad covid-19 har visat sig känna en hög arbetsrelaterad stress, utmattning och depress

Mosasaurierna utgör en grupp storvuxna ödlor som dominerade positionen som toppredatorer i haven under sen krittid. Det anses allmänt att dessa marina reptiler, tillsammans med de sista landlevande dinosaurierna, dog ut under det massutdöende som markerar övergången mellan krita och paleogen. Nyligen påträffades en del av ett skalltak tillhörande en mosasaurie i ett löst kalk- och flintblock på enMosasaurs are a group of marine reptiles that are considered to have been the apex predators of the oceans during the Late Cretaceous. It is generally assumed that they, along with the last non-avian dinosaurs, died out during the mass extinction that marks the end of the Cretaceous. Recently, a mosasaur skull roof was discovered in a loose boulder on a beach in the vicinity of the town of Hanstho

The abortion debate in the United States has become increasingly polarized where the legality and morality of abortion is continuously discussed. This has given rise to an abortion movement and countermovement, commonly referred to as the pro- choice movement and pro-life movement. These movements are furthermore working transnationally to promote their agendas and contribute to social and politic

The fashion industry with its complex supply chains deals with increasingly problematic environmental issues. IS and specifically analytics technologies are said to provide fashion companies with crucial insights to improve their environmental impact. However, these promises of this so-called analytics-enabled Green Supply Chain Management (GSCM) are not fully materializing in the European fashion

Suppose that an infinite population is partitioned into different species. Given a random sample from the population of species, we are interested in estimating the species richness, which is the number of different species inhabiting a given area. The species richness is a symmetric functional of the probability mass function. A suitable model for estimating the probability mass function is via

The use of temporary agency workers (TAWs) has grown over the years, and previous research shows that TAWs do not always have time to create interpersonal relationships, experience unequal work tasks, and perceive a lack of social support within the organization. Hence, this study aimed to investigate to what extent perceived organizational support (POS) from the client organization and the percep

The French gilets jaunes (yellow vest) protest movement, sparked by a planned carbon fuel tax in 2018 is marked by numerous injuries and mutilations of protesters by police, and characterised by a shift towards a more confrontational protest policing strategy. Viewing protest policing and police violence as interlinked with political processes, this thesis explores the question of how the boundari

In 2000, the Clinton Administration in the U.S. adopted the Commodity Futures Modernization Act, which deregulated the U.S. trade with financial instruments on commodity markets. With respect to this adoption, it has been regarded as one catalyst for the Global food crisis 2008, where millions of individuals lacked provision and access to agricultural products and nutrition. From the perspective o

The aim of this thesis is to investigate whether there were a change and if so to identify that change in the ideational content of parliamentary motions in the integration policy field during the 2010’s. In the first part of the thesis, international trends in the relevant policy sphere are discussed and identified. Four ideal types of concerning logics of integration are also presented and discu

Straffrätten är en disciplin som i hög grad återspeglar det sociala och moraliska läget i ett samhälle. Här hanteras ideologiska frågor om hur staten bör utöva sin makt för att effektivt bekämpa brottslighet, vad som är rätt och orätt och vem som egentligen bör straffas. En filosofisk frågeställning som spelar en central roll i straffrätten är frågan om den fria viljans existens. Anledningen till Criminal law is a discipline that to a large extent reflects the social and moral situation in a society. Here, ideological questions are addressed about how the state should exercise its power to effectively fight crime, what is right and wrong and who should rightfully be punished. A philosophical issue that plays a central role in criminal law is the question regarding the existence of free wil

Samernas rättigheter har varit uppmärksammat i media och detta väcker även frågan om deras folkrättsliga skydd. Flera internationella organ har uppmanat Sverige att ratificera konventionen ILO 169 om urfolks rättigheter, men detta har inte skett. Detta beror bland annat på att samernas rätt till mark inte uppfyller konventionens krav. Uppsatsen syftar därmed på att utreda hur samernas rätt till maThe Sami people’s rights have attracted media attention as of late and this raises the question of their protection in international law. Several international organs have urged Sweden to ratify the convention ILO 169 on indigenous people’s rights, but that is yet to happen. It partly depends on the Sami land rights which doesn’t meet the convention’s requirements. The thesis therefore aims to exa

Internationellt sett så ligger Sverige i framkant i digitaliseringen, där banksektorn drivs av, förutom den tekniska utvecklingen, kundernas förändrade beteende att vilja nå olika tjänster i fler kanaler. Men behovet av den mänskliga sociala relationen kvarstår i de digitala mötena mellan bankkund och rådgivare. Undersökningen har som syfte att undersöka hur rådgivarna strukturerar upp den social
