Pursuing the evolvement and purpose of the Cost Sharing Exemption in the EU VAT system

on the 21st of September, the CJEU delivered the judgements in DNB Banka and AVIVA, clearly stating that the cost sharing exemption cannot be relied upon by taxable persons operating in the financial and insurance sectors, due to the fact that the scope of Article 132(1)(f) is limited to exemptions in the public interest. This paper will look at the purpose and the development of Article 132(1)(f)

"Så att jag får utveckla mitt speleri och sådant"- En studie om musikaliskt lärande i gymnasiesärskolan

Syftet med denna studie är att belysa hur elever i gymnasiesärskolan ges möjligheter till musikaliskt lärande. Studien grundar sig i bristande erfarenheter kring att undervisa elever med olika funktionsnedsättningar samt en uppfattning om att undervisningen kan tendera att fokusera mer på omvårdnad.

But also that education for students with disabilities may be char

The Transformative Potential of the Right to the City : An Analysis of the Potential Contribution of the Right to the City in Formulating a Human Rights Response to Urban Socio-Economic Inequalities

The demographic patterns in developing countries have significantly changed in the recent few decades due to the impact of urbanization. The urbanization process has created new challenges; and the enormous divide between haves and have nots has become a defining feature of contemporary urban spaces. The advent of neo liberal globalisation and the integration of developing countries in to the glob

Double Taxation Resulting from the ATAD: Is There A Relief?

Despite of the ambitious aim of the ATAD, the adverse effect of double taxation caused by the implementation of it is unsolved. It is therefore up to taxpayers to solve the conflict of norms by identifying the correct source of law for eliminating double taxation. The thesis focuses on the double taxation caused by the implementation of ATAD and identifying the correct source of law, if possible,

Brandteknisk riskvärdering av Bombardier Arena

The purpose of this report is to evaluate and assess fire safety at Bombardier Arena, located in Västerås. This report will only focus on personal safety and therefore no consideration has been taken regarding economic or environmental damage. Bombardier Arena is used during several events, for example, during concerts, car shows, and different sports activities. The maximum number of attendees at

Utmaningar att beakta vid utformning av digital strategi

Denna uppsats syftar till att studera vilka utmaningar som bör beaktas vid utformning av en digital strategi. Studien görs genom att med akademisk litteratur definiera vad en digital strategi är, för att sedan samla data från organisationer om deras digitala strategi, och de utmaningar de stött på. Den empiriska insamlingen består av fyra intervjuer med representanter från fyra organisationer, båd

Potentialen med smartare RPA-robotar: Innebär smartare RPA-robotar till följd av introduceringen av Machine Learning att dess roll och uppgifter i verksamhetsprocesser förändras.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om de teoretiska fördelarna som Machine Learning kan ha på kapabiliteten hos AI-robotar har fått genomslag, och hur dessa fördelar kommer att påverka hur RPA-robotar placeras i verksamhetsprocesser i form av roll och uppgift. Genom intervjuer med branschexperter och sammanställning av teorier ser vi att introduceringen av ML i RPA-robotar kan innebära en u

Den nyutexaminerade systemvetaren: Arbetsgivarens förväntan på kunskap och kompetens

Brist på studenter som tar examen inom informatik och systemvetenskap har lett till en avsaknad av IT-kompetens som kan hota Sveriges tillväxt. En nyutexaminerad systemvetare bör ha införskaffat sig grundläggande kunskap och kompetens genom sin utbildning men det kan vara svårt att veta vilka krav arbetsgivaren har på den nyutexaminerade systemvetaren. Därav undersöker denna uppsats vilka kunskaps

This thesis is about queer youth in total institutions, and the meaning those institutions might have on the identity formation process. The thesis itself consists of two smaller sub-studies, a literature review of some of the existing research on queer youth in total institutions, and a discourse analysis of the identity aspect using texts written by queer youth who has spent time in a total inst

Characteristics and properties for iron powder with flow additives

Powders are complex systems that depend strongly on how the individual particles in- teract and their surroundings. Understanding powders behaviour under certain conditions is very important for the product in many applications, one of them being Additive Manu- facturing (AM). The overall goal of this study is to understand and quantify the effect of flow additives in combination with iron powder.

Investigation of the relationship between physical properties of mesalazine and its behavior during dry mixing

Examensarbetet undersöker om det i en viss process går att förutsäga hur ett läkemedelspulver och dess partiklar kommer att bete sig utifrån att undersöka fysikaliska egenskaper hos partiklarna. Att hantera pulver inom läkemedelsindustrin är en väldigt stor utmaning. På grund av att de flesta läkemedel idag säljs som tabletter som tillverkats från pulver, så är utmaningen av mycket stor betydelse,The master thesis was done at QPharma to investigate a processing problem during production of tablets, where an excessive volume expansion during dry mixing of three ingredients occurred from time to time. A volume expansion (dilation) is needed for particles, within a powder, to become mixed with other particles. However, the extent of the dilation is dependent on intermolecular forces between p

The Cow in the Room: Addressing Meat and Animal-Derived Food Consumption in the Age of Climate Change

This thesis problematizes the consumption of meat and animal-derived foods in the age of climate change. Despite vast empirical data showing the detrimental effects related to animal agriculture, there is a general reluctance to stop consuming animal-based foods. In order to investigate the reasons for this reluctance, qualitative interviews were chosen as a research method. Using Norway as a case

E-legitimationsbedrägerier: Balansgången mellan förtroende och vilseledning

Studien omfattar bedrägerier som utförs via den svenska e-legitimationen BankID. Konceptet social engineering presenteras i denna studie och används som en förklaringsmodell för att kunna utforska huruvida BankID-bedrägerierna faller inom ramen för SE.

Genom en intervjuThe study covers fraud that is carried out via the Swedish e-ID BankID. The concept of social engineering is presented in this study and is used as an explanatory model to investigate whether the BankID fraud falls within the scope of SE. Furthermore, several human factors such as target group, awareness and trust are discussed to understand what type of impact they have in this context. An interv

Klandergrunden handläggningsfel – en för parterna svårligen förutsebar bestämmelse? – En studie av innehållet i 34 § 1 st. 7 p. lagen om skiljeförfarande samt en utblick mot grova rättegångsfel i civilprocessen

Skiljeförfarande som tvistlösningsform har blivit allt vanligare mellan kommersiella parter, till stor del på grund av dess effektivitet och slutgiltighet. Skiljedomar kan enbart upphävas enligt ett begränsat antal grunder i 34 § 1 st. lag (1999:166) om skiljeförfarande (LSF). En av dessa klandergrunder kan åberopas om skiljenämnden begått ett handläggningsfel utan parts vållande som sannolikt påvCommercial arbitration has become increasingly common in Sweden mostly due to its effectiveness and finality as a mechanism for solving disputes. However, according to the Swedish Arbitration Act of 1999 (SAA), arbitration awards can only be set aside in a limited number of situations. One of the situations when it is possible to set aside an award is when an arbitration tribunal has made a proced
