Gränsöverskridande ombildningar gör det möjligt för aktiebolag att omvandlas till en motsvarande bolagsform i en annan medlemsstat inom EU eller EES utan att avvecklas och återbildas. Denna typ av omstrukturering är ett uttryck för den etableringsfrihet som följer av EU-rätten, och utgör samtidigt en viktig möjlighet för företag att effektivisera sin verksamhet och anpassa sig till nya marknader eCross-border conversions allow limited liability companies to convert into an equivalent corporate form in another EU or EEA Member State without being dissolved and re-established. This type of restructuring is a manifestation of the freedom of establishment under EU law and serves as an important opportunity for companies to streamline their operations and adapt to new markets or legal systems.

Utmärkande för aktiebolaget som associationsform är att varken aktieägare eller bolagsledning bär ett personligt ansvar för bolagets förpliktelser. Enbart bolagets egna tillgångar kan därför tas i anspråk för dess skulder. För att balansera det begränsade personliga ansvaret mot borgenärernas intresse av att få betalt för sina fordringar innehåller aktiebolagslagen (2005:551) (ABL) bestämmelser soA characteristic feature of the limited liability company as a form of association is that neither shareholders nor directors of the board are personally liable for the company’s obligations. Only the company’s own assets can therefore be used to pay its debts. In order to balance the limited personal liability against creditors’ interest in receiving payment for their claims, Chapter 17 of the Sw

This study examines how a feminist anti-racist organization challenges colonial narratives and power dynamics within the development field. Rooted in the recognition of colonial, capitalist, and patriarchal structures shaping development, the research focuses on decolonization as a means to disrupt these power dynamics. In the case study of IM, a Swedish development organization, this thesis looks

Sweden’s adoption of a feminist foreign policy in 2014 was the first of its kind, marking a significant shift in how it would conduct its foreign policy. Since then, the effect feminist foreign policies have on feminist discourse has been a growing field of study. This thesis adds to this by examining the relationship between actors, foreign policy, and feminist discourse. By combining feminist in

This master's thesis delves into the role of humanitarian engineering interventions in fostering community empowerment. Focusing on two case studies in Tanzania conducted by Engineers Without Borders Sweden (EWB-SWE), the research provides a comprehensive analysis of the impacts, challenges, and opportunities associated with such interventions. Drawing on literature from community empowerment,

This research explores Bolivia's environmental policy through the lens of Latin American Feminist Political Ecology (LAFPE) to examine the integration of gender perspectives into environmental governance. Drawing from discourse analysis of official Bolivian government documents and speeches, the study evaluates the alignment between Bolivia's environmental policy and LAFPE principles, part

Image retrieval is the task of finding images in a database similar to a given query image. The retrieved images, typically a small subset of the entire database, are initially ordered based on their similarity with the query. They can subsequently be re-ranked to improve the retrieval accuracy. Database images that are relevant to the query should increase in rank and vice versa. In this thesis

Uppsatsen undersöker den svenska lagreformen av våldtäktsbrottet år 2018, som innebar införande av samtyckeslagen och oaktsam våldtäkt som ett nytt brott. Reformen, motiverad delvis av #metoo-rörelsen 2017, fokuserade på att bedöma om deltagandet i en sexuell handling var frivilligt eller inte, i stället för att kräva våld, hot eller utnyttjande som tidigare. Trots lagens tydlighet har rättspraxisThe essay examines the Swedish legal reform of the rape offense in 2018, which introduced the consent law and negligent rape as a new offense. The reform, partly motivated by the #metoo movement in 2017, focused on assessing whether participation in a sexual act was voluntary or not, rather than requiring violence, threat, or coercion as before. Despite the clarity of the law, judicial practice ha

Modernity, language and western culture are some of the explanations of why ‘the climate crisis can be perceived as a crisis of our imagination’. These concerns around storytelling are investigated based on the degrowth concept of ‘decolonization of the imaginary’ and sociological theories on the absence of socio-ecological imaginations. I build upon the novel method Story Completion (SC) that inv

The development of Artificial Intelligence(AI) and Machine Learning(ML) has highly increased over the past decades, with numerous research projects developing AI and ML models for clinical decision support. Many of these projects showcase promising results in the lab, however, when set in a real-life clinical setting most models perform significantly worse, resulting in only a few models transitio

Climate change is escalating. In the search for alternatives to fossil fuels, many countries are pushing green hydrogen as an energy vector. The development of a hydrogen economy is planned, and social and ecological consequences are at risk of being neglected. Namibia has excellent conditions for renewables and plans to be a major exporter of green hydrogen. Germany is set to import green hydroge

Mindfulness is not only relevant for enhancing humans’ well-being but also the well-being of our planet through pro-environmental behaviour. In recent years, this possible connection of mindfulness with pro-environmental behaviour has received increasing attention in research. I used Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, PsychInfo and PsychArticles via the EBSCO host to conduct a systematic literature r

In this thesis, I examine the political storytelling of the Sweden Democrats, a far-right populist party that has steadily gained political momentum in the past 15 years. Notably, they have positioned themselves as defenders of automobile society, a topic which has become increasingly prominent in Swedish political discourse. By using narrative analysis, this thesis aims to investigate how the Swe

Degrowth identifies capitalist colonial appropriation of the Global North as the driver for global environmental and social crises, calling for a new economy centred around human needs. Degrowth also proposes a societal transformation that requires a redefinition of human-nature relations. Industrial agriculture, dominated by profit-oriented multinationals, contributes to and intensifies existing

Den 1 februari 2024 trädde lagen om preventiva vistelseförbud i kraft. Lagen innebär i korthet att en person, utan att den begått ett brott eller är misstänkt för brott kan förbjudas att vistas inom ett avgränsat område om personen med- vetet främjar brottslighet som allvarligt kan skada tryggheten eller om det finns en påtaglig risk för användning av skjutvapen eller sprängämnen kan komma att anv1st of February 2024, the late concerning preventive visit ban was entered into force. In short, the law implies that a person, without having committed a crime or being suspected of a crime, can be banned from visiting a certain defined area if the person consciously promotes criminal acts that can seri- ously harm safety or if an obvious risk for use of firearms or explosives pre- vails. The mea

Hur kan vår vattenanvändning bli mer hållbar? Hur kan vi minska vår förbrukning av dricksvatten? Med stigande temperaturer, klimatförändringar och ökande befolkning blir dessa frågor allt viktigare. Ett förslag är att dra ner på vår dricksvattenkonsumption genom att använda regnvatten. Regnvatten kan användas till att spola i våra toalettstolar, till tvättmaskiner och till bevattning. Men hur kan How can our water consumption become more sustainable? How can our consumption of drinking water decrease? With increasing temperatures, climate changes, and population growth the questions becomes more important. To address this, a suggestion of reducing our drinking water consumption by utilizing rainwater is proposed. Rainwater can be used to flush our toilets, to wash clothes, and for irrigati

The increasing importance of mode selection in supply chain management, driven by factors such as globalisation, environmental concerns and safety requirements, has led Power Electronics to re-evaluate its current reliance on road freight transportation within the United States. In response to the growing awareness of sustainability, Power Electronics intends to explore the viability of rail trans

This research analyses how different food initiatives in Bogotá shape socio-nature relations through their food practices with the aim to realise the transformations they envision, advocate, and cultivate. Through a decolonial and relational approach, the study examines how these initiatives challenge the dominant food system's focus on economic values and instead advocate values based on care

I november 2023 presenterades en SOU som skulle se över hur sexköpslagen kan appliceras på onlineköp av sex. SOU:n kommer till följd av att nya former av sexköp, där även helt digitala former av sexköp, blivit vanligare. För andra bestämmelser i 6 kap.
