Det här examensarbetet grundar sig på en översättning av den tyske författaren Daniel Kehlmanns Diese sehr ernsten Scherze. Poetikvorlesungen (2007). Efter en inledande källtextanalys följer en redogörelse för de strategiska överväganden som låg till grund för översättningen. Arbetet avslutas sedan med en fördjupande översättningskommentar där två specifika översättningsproblem näranalyseras i rel

Att aktieägare skriver aktieägaravtal är vanligt förekommande i svenska aktiebolag och då framförallt i mindre, privata bolag. I aktieägaravtalet kan man avtala om bland annat rösträttsbegränsningar och ägarförhållanden. Den allmänna uppfattningen i Sverige har sedan länge varit att aktieägaravtal endast är obligationsrättsliga mellan avtalsparterna, och därmed aldrig kan binda aktiebolaget. Ett a

Abstract Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are involved in many diverse biological functions. In this thesis, my objectives were focused on the functional evaluation of two types of ncRNAs. First, the functional consequences of miR-944 regulation were evaluated in HeLa, a cervical cancer cell line. Results showed a reduced cell proliferation on miR-944 overexpression by using the WST-1 assay. In addition,

During the last 30 years the form for political participation in Sweden has changed from a corporatistic system to a pluralistic system of lobbying. This change has led to a number of democratic consequences, such as the unbalanced potential for using lobbyism between the labourmarket parties, the well-reasourced and less well-resourced as well as untransparent way of how lobbying is done. During

Mellan 2007 och 2008 steg de internationella priserna för mat och bränsle kraftigt och det pratades i medierna och i FN om en global matkris odlad av spekulation och protektionism. Det sägs att 74 låginkomstländer och 71 medelinkomstländer drabbades av priserna som vissa månader till och med fördubblades. I de mest utsatta länderna uppstod det i flera fall våldsamma protester.

The Swiss foreign policy offers a deviant case. Most countries that were neutral during the Cold War have during the last decades become more cooperative, while Switzerland on the other hand still contains a rather stable foreign policy. Because traditional theories in International Politics offer no concrete explanation to this puzzle, I have been oriented towards decision-making theories in dome

In the book ”street-level bureaucracy dilemmas of the individual in public services” (2010) the author Michael Lipsky writes about the individual in public services. Lipsky presents a theory about street-level bureaucrats as policy makers. He argues that policy is created by the people at the bottom of the organizational hierarchy, the street-level bureaucrats. This is made possible by two interli

The reign of the ʿAbbāsid caliph al-Mutawakkil (847-861) is consistently presented in research literature as a milestone in the ups and downs of religious persecution in the early centuries of Islamic civilization. In this bachelor’s thesis I seek to discern what the intentions and motivations of al-Mutawakkil were in institutionalizing his particular brand of state-level discrimination. Research

Barn som vittnen får ofta försöka identifiera gärningsmannen i olika former av line-up. Subjektiva bedömningar av vittnens korrekthet sker både av vittnet själv och av rättssystemet, vilket i olyckliga fall kan få negativa konsekvenser för offer och felaktigt misstänkta. Syftet med studien var att närmare undersöka barnens ålders påverkan på korrekthet, konfidens och kalibrering över två olika typ

Air pollution is a serious problem today, both from an environmental and from a health point of view. Especially in cities, particles smaller than 10 µm in aerodynamic diameter (PM10) can reach high concentrations. These particles are dangerous, even at low concentrations, since they are small enough to enter the lungs. In order to estimate the concentration of air pollutants, different measureme
