Thus, this thesis tries to cover parallel trade issues in pharmaceutical industry and assess whether there is room for justified restrictions of parallel trade within EU competition rules.

Bonuspoäng - ett medel för klimatkompensation?

De senaste decennierna har människors mobilitetsmönster förändrats radikalt och numera reser människor mer frekvent än någonsin. Det delvis på grund av att flygbolags lojalitetsprogram uppmanar till en ökad rörlighet. Det har ur ett hållbarhetsperspektiv kommit att kopplas till en viss problematik, då människors ökade mobilitet även resulterar i ökade skadliga utsläpp för miljön. Det konkretiserar

The Green Lantern in the Energy Sector?

During the last decade, several influential organizations have emphasized the importance of green investments. Furthermore, many advocators have claimed that green investments would be beneficial both for the labor market but also for the economy.

Debts and Savings from a Behavioral and Financial Literacy Perspective

By extending the neo-classical economic framework to a behavioral and financial literacy level this thesis intends to give a better understanding for how individuals make decisions concerning loans and savings.

Trademark as a legitimate barrier in trade

The relationship between Intellectual Property (IP), free movement of goods and competition law has always been complex.

The aim of this masters’ thesis is to examine how libraries can better services for patrons with invisible disabilities.

Invisible disabilities are disabilities that are not immediately apparent. T

Katedralen i Ørestad

My essay is about the Danish Radio Concert House, a building for the Danish National Symphony Orchestra in Copenhagen.
