IPH, specifically men's lethal violence against females, persists as a persuasive issue, both internationally and nationally. This is despite political reforms such as the 2020 legal amendment addressing such violence. In response to contemporary concerns and to analyse the phenomena deeper, this thesis focuses on the narratives, dynamics, and motives presented in court rulings concerning IPH
This thesis explores a central question in the macroeconomic debate today: Why has Europe`s economic growth lagged behind the United States in recent decades? The study specifically examines if this divergence in part can be explained by differences in digitalization and energy prices. By employing an OLS panel data model with country specific effects – modelling the two samples of EU15 countries
This thesis examines the legal conformity of Special Tax Zones (STZs) with the principle of non-discrimination under European Union (EU) law, especially when these zones are exempt from State aid rules. STZs are most of the time geographic tax regimes that provide advantages to companies according to their location or their needs in the context of regional development difficulties. Although freque
Social sustainability remains the most diffuse and least developed of the three pillars of-sustainability, often overshadowed by its environmental and economic counterparts. As-Geographic Information System (GIS) continues to emerge as a powerful tool in urban-planning and policy-making, its potential to address social dimensions of sustainability-is increasingly recognized but still underexplored
Vi har under vår ämneslärarutbildning i musik på Musikhögskolan i Malmö upplevt och blivit intresserade av projektbaserat lärande som ett arbetssätt för att skapa inkluderande, meningsfull och kreativ musikundervisning. Frågeställningarna i studien är: (i) Hur förhåller sig informanterna till projektbaserat lärande? (ii) Hur arbetar informanterna med projektbaserat lärande utifrån sin förståelse aDuring our teacher training program in music at the Malmö Academy of Music, we have experienced and become interested in project-based learning as an approach to creating inclusive, meaningful and creative music education. The questions this thesis poses are: (i) How do the informants relate to project-based learning? (ii) How do informants implement project-based learning in accordance with their
This is an ethnographic study of a Swedish Fountain House and the members and counselors who curate the culture and community within the specific field of this Fountain House (F.H). To provide an analysis of individuals who have dealt with or are dealing with mental health and illness coming together within a rehabilitation organization, a focus on subjectivity and intersubjectivity is expound
Det råder stor osäkerhet angående bestämningen av den ersättning som bör utgå för det som kallas miljö- eller företagsskada. Miljö- och företagsskada har sin grund i olika lagstiftningar, 32 kap. MB respektive 2 § 4 kap. ExL, men avser i praktiken samma faktiska skada. Vid bestämning av den ersättning som bör utgå används samma modeller och praxis för att bedöma skadan. Den modell som idag har stöRoads can cause surrounding property units’ disturbances that negatively affect the property values. The disturbances are created by the activity on the road and typically include increased noise, impairment of the view, vibration, dust and light pollution. Under certain circumstances the property owner is entitled to compensation for the damages, which should be commensurate with the decrease in

In this thesis, the traditional way of conducting chromatographic separation by linear elution was re-evaluated by introducing variable elution buffer trajectories in the mobile phase. Through numerical simulation of ion exchange chromatography using a finite volume method approach, various salt concentration profiles were optimized for improving the separation of components, using yield and produ
Students studying mathematics-intensive programmes have a very high rate of dropping out before graduating. This, in a Swedish context, is despite upper-secondary schools saying that students will be prepared to study at a university level upon graduating upper-secondary school. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the perceptions of mathematics as a subject differ between upper-second
In Sweden, unemployed jobseekers increasingly encounter automated decision-making systems (ADMs) when applying for both jobs and welfare support. The present qualitative project interpreted the lived experiences of 14 interviewees within these increasingly automated environments, with the aim of finding unjust constraints on their self-determination and self-development, as well as to spot potenti
This thesis analyzes the legal challenges of inheritances within Colombia’s tax treaty network, specifically addressing the asymmetrical tax coverage that arises when Colombia applies Double Taxation Conventions on Income and Capital to cross-border inheritances. The core research question is whether inheritance taxes can be covered by the OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and Capital, as interp
The rising levels of greenhouse gas emissions, especially of carbon dioxide, imposes a significant threat to the world, requiring new decarbonisation technologies. This thesis explores integrating a Power to X system with an existing biogas plant utilizing waste from salmon fishery. Three pathways for upgrading biogas to methanol or methane were investigated: (P1) direct carbon dioxide to methanol

This study explores how successful livestreamers use strategic communication during TikTok Livestream Shopping, to create influence on viewers' purchase behavior. Livestream Shopping is a well-established phenomenon in Asia, but it remains under-researched in the Western context, particularly from the livestreamer’s perspective. By analyzing the communication of three successful Western livest
