Våldtäktsbrottet har, inom svensk rätt, genomgått omfattande förändringar de senaste decennierna. Begreppet har breddats och kommit att innefatta allt fler sexuella handlingar. Utvecklingen har följts av omfattande diskussioner samt medialt omdebatterade domar. Den så kallade samtyckesregleringen, där rekvisiten våld och hot avskaffas till förmån för ett bristande samtycke, har haft en central posUnder Swedish Penal Law the rape offense has undergone extensive changes in the recent decades. The concept of rape has been broadened and extended to cover more sexual acts then before. The trend has been followed by extensive discussions and media controversial judgments. The so-called consent regulation, where the elements of violence and threats would be replaced in favor of the victim’s lack

In the article Libraries, librarians and the discourse of fear (2001) Radford & Radford presented the idea that the library representations in popular culture depict the library as a frightening institution for users. According to the article the institution and its librarians use fear as a way of controlling users. The aim of this Master’s thesis is to examine whether and if yes, how the arti

Bullying, harassments and other forms of emotional abuse at the workplace are matters which lately have garnered a lot of publicity. A series of articles in Dagens Nyheter in the summer of 2010 left many readers wondering about the legal situation for those exposed to emotional abuse and the responsibilities employers and employees have in regard to problems in the psychosocial work environment. A

I have in this thesis conducted fieldwork at the Swedish newspaper Sydsvenskan's digital media department. I was curious to find out how or if the financial instability that is currently sweeping across the newspaper industry is embodied through praxis within a department that many are eager to blame the instability for – that is, a digital media department. I wanted to pinpoint and observe re

Kalligrafi har funnits i Kina i många olika former alltsedan de första kinesiska tecknen präntades ner. Kalligrafi har varit ett viktigt medel inom politiken samtidigt som det har varit en viktig konstform i Kina. I dagens Kina har kalligrafi tappat sin forna glans, men används fortfarande inom politiken, om än i mindre utsträckning. Konstmässigt sett har kalligrafi utvecklats oerhört under 1900-tCalligraphy has existed in many shapes in China, ever since the first Chinese characters were written. Calligraphy has been an important tool within politics as well as being an important art form. Contemporary Calligraphy has lost the prestige it once had, but is still used within politics though not to the same extent. Calligraphy as an art form has developed immensely during the latter part of

När man skall förstärkningsdimensionera en befintlig väg så utförs diverse undersökningar. En av de viktigaste – fallviktsmätning- görs för att få kunskap om de individuella konstruktionslagrens styrka (E-modul). Dessa materialmoduler används sedan (i kombination med annan information) bland annat för att beräkna den teoretiska asfalttjocklek som behövs som förstärkning för att vägen skall ha ytte

Using quarterly data on 55 UK domiciled companies within the FTSE100 collected from DataStream database covering the period 1991-2009, we investigate which factors are distinguished between financially successful and less successful companies. In this study, portfolio analysis and OLS regression were performed upon the theoretical concepts of financial variables. Financial success is measured by a

Hence, the main purpose of this master thesis is to deliver a solution for Bong Ljungdahl AB’s e-commerce expansion towards private customers and Small Medium Enterprises. In addition to this, the thesis also aims to create an independ

Kognitiv beteendeterapi (KBT) kan idag erbjuda evidensbaserade behandlingar för de flesta psykiska sjukdomar, men har inte utvecklats systematiskt för svagbegåvade personer med psykiska besvär. Individerna i denna osynliga befolkningsgrupp är emellertid extra sårbara för psykisk ohälsa pga sina sociala livsvillkor, samt sina psykobiologiska förutsättningar. Med stöd i forskning om KBT för lågbegåCognitive-Behavioural-Therapy (CBT) can today offer evidence-based treatments for most psychological disorders, but has not developed systematically for people with borderline intellectual functioning (IQ 70-85) and their psychological disorders. Individuals in this unseen population are, however, exceptionally vulnerable to psychological disorders because of their social life situation, as well a

Containrar är i ständig rörelse över landsgränser, vilket gör det näst intill omöjligt för en containerleasegivare att förutse i vilka jurisdiktioner uthyrda containrar kommer att befinna sig under leaseperioden – en fråga som dock är av stor betydelse. Leasegivarens äganderättsliga skydd är avhängigt av att de länder i vilka containrarna befinner sig respekterar och upprätthåller det. Inte desto Containers are constantly crossing borders, making it almost impossible for a container leasing company to predict which jurisdictions containers on lease may enter – a question, however, of great importance. The protection of the lessor’s proprietary rights is dependent on that countries respect and uphold the protection. Nonetheless does the protection as of today vary widely and it occurs that

Condition Based Monitoring techniques have been developed to monitor the condition of critical components in machines. The most widely used technique to detect damage in machine components is vibration monitoring, but there are areas where other methods could be a better option. Vibration measuring can also be used as a broader search for damage in components while other methods can specify the ex

Examensarbetet bygger på en översättning av ”The Concept of Whiteness and American Film”, tredje kapitlet i läroboken America on Film – Representing Race, Class, Gender, and Sexuality at the Movies av Harry M. Benshoff och Sean Griffin. Inledningsvis analyseras källtexten och översättningens förutsättningar. Därefter följer fördjupningsuppgiften som behandlar översättningens huvudsakliga problemom

In this thesis I have presented possible indicators affecting boys’ educational attainments and learning behaviors. In my study I used both quantitative and qualitative methods. First, I studied the relationship between knowledge of relational concepts and later academic achievements. The data consisted of two different types of tests (Boehm Test of Basic Concepts and National Standard Tests). The

Problemställning: Vilka parametrar behöver mätas för att skapa ett logistikindex som efter en given mall återspeglar en byggarbetsplats arbete med logistik? Hur bör dessa parametrar mätas, implementeras samt på vilka sätt kan resultaten redovisas? Syfte: Indexet är framtaget med syftet att genom ökad kunskap och ständiga förbättringar sänka produktionskostnaden för ett byggprojekt, förutsatt att p

Denna studie syftade till att evaluera och undersöka eventuell förändring i psykologisk symtomnivå samt klienttillfredsställelse hos klienter som behandlats med kognitiv beteendeterapi eller psykodynamisk terapi på en utbildningsmottagning för blivande psykologer. Studien syftade även till att undersöka eventuella skillnader i resultatet mellan klienter i kognitiv beteendeterapi och psykodynamisk This study aimed to investigate and evaluate change in psychological symptom levels and client satisfaction in clients treated with cognitive behavioral therapy or psychodynamic psychotherapy at a training clinic for prospective psychologists. The study also aimed to examine possible differences in outcome between clients in cognitive-behavioral therapy and psychodynamic therapy, and to examine wh

Home based work is considered as work with low economic value and low waged. The Home base work is also preserved to be a principal way to earn a living for women. The traditional home based works for instance thread making, weaving, dairying, basket making etc., were such kind of work which carried out at home, still exists particularly in developing countries. Since a huge number of home base wo

High school educators and administrators are increasingly concerned about educating and engaging their students in sustainability issues. Consequently, curricula in many schools are being redesigned in order to focus upon these issues and their consequences. This thesis describes a project, ‘Scholen voor Duurzaamheid’ (Schools for Sustainability, SvD), that is being used as a springboard in Dutch
