Today, sixty-eight United Nations member states criminalize consensual same-sex sexual conduct and nine states expressively criminalize the gender identity/expression of transgender people.

This thesis is placed in the context of talent management and revolves around the phenomena of talent and talent wars. The two phenomena have received increased attention in the talent management discourse during the last decades as the international competitiveness for talents among organizations has become amplified. The purpose of this thesis has been to explore, analyze and compare different p

The planning process involves the production of a vast amount of data by different actors. During the evolvement of a detailed development plan the municipality relies on data from geographic information system (GIS), while the developer produces data by building information modeling (BIM). The development of systems for GIS- and BIM-data have been parallel and for different purposes. The municipa

Based on regional differences in cities and countryside this bachelor thesis intends to explore regional and national prioritization in transport planning. With new investments effecting both growth and sustainability, an urban focus can leave minor municipalities and smaller towns unable to compete, possibly making a sustainable lifestyle exclusive to cities. Using a case study approach and con

Cirka 3000 internationella investeringsavtal har ingåtts sedan 1960-talet för att främja och skydda gränsöverskridande investeringar över hela världen. Avtalen innehåller vanligtvis tvistlösningsmekanismen Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS), som innebär att utländska investerare ges rätt att stämma värdstater inför en internationell skiljedomstol för åtgärder som potentiellt påverkar investeApproximately 3000 international investment agreements (IIAs), mostly bilateral investment treaties, have been designed since the 1960’s to promote and protect foreign investment across the world. In case of a dispute, the agreements provide for investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) in an arbitration tribunal. Investors have, however, been successful in extending arbitration to issues concernin

Författaren av denna uppsats är partikelfysiker, till på köpet teoretisk partikelfysiker. Detta innebär att jag är intresserad av att beskriva och förstå universums absolut minsta beståndsdelar. Den moderna fysiken har, genom hårt arbete av många ytterst kompetenta hjärnor, byggt en modell av det minsta vi känner till: de fundamentala partiklarna. Med exotiska namn som kvarkar, gluoner, fotoner ocThis thesis work presents thermal decay rates for several reactions calculated within the framework of the real-time formalism. Processes considered are those of a neutral (pseudo)scalar decaying into two distinct (pseudo)scalars or into a fermion-antifermion pair. These processes are extended from earlier work to include chemical potentials and distinct species in the final state. A hypothetical

The Business Improvement District-model has in recent years become a more common model for improving residential and commercial areas in Sweden. The model provides a Public-Private-Partnership between property owners and the municipality that produces a unique form of local governance, but Swedish legislation is not suited for the model’s original use. This bachelor thesis in urban and regional pl

This paper investigates whether the Blekinge Region in the south-east of Sweden has the prerequisites to adopt a polycentric regional strategy. The Region is facing challenges when it comes to unemployment and dependency ratios with growing numbers of elderly. A possible solution to this could be adopting a regional strategy that would widen the regions labour market areas through a polycentric re

This thesis is about urban gardening and its meaning for ecological and social sustainability. The study is based on a case study, Augustenborg in Malmö, and on the theoretical model “Planner’s triangle”, from Scott Campbell 1996, interwoven with the theory of social capital. The method used for the study is of qualitative value, with one document analysis and four semi-structured interviews with

This paper aims to study different aspects of visions for environmentally sustainable urban planning in Lund (Sweden). Questions are raised to examine which visions that are most prominent. This is answered by conducting a qualitative document analysis on policy documents for future planning in Lund and by discussing the findings against environmental sustainability and Sweden's goals for sust

The aim of this qualitative case study is to describe and investigate the development of citizen dialogues, which is an important part of participatory planning. In order to include citizens, dialogues are used in projects intended to develop areas constructed during the Swedish public housing programme Miljonprogrammet. Projekt DrottningH, which was initiated 2011 in Drottninghög, Helsingborg, is

The aim of this study is to analyze the texts and images appearing on the internet homepage of the Swedish national archive - riksarkivet.se. This is done by using the discourse analysis theory, as it is presented by Laclau and Mouffe. By using this as a theory and method my goal is to highlight the way the website presents their historical perspective, as well as how they legitimize themselves as

This bachelor’s thesis in urban planning aims to investigate the ongoing discourse of the need for urban encounters. Through a discourse analysis of the urban renewal project Nyhamnen, Malmö, the research aspires to understand the role of meeting places in providing the opportunity for strangers to meet. A meeting which results in intercultural respect and furthered social sustainability. Using th

Almost two decades ago, Richard Florida published the first version of ‘The Rise Of The Creative Class’ and since then several cities in Sweden have implemented his ideas in the hope of bringing growth to the city. This study aims to investigate how Florida’s ideas can be found within the municipal planning of two sub-areas of Malmö, Hyllie, and Norra Sorgenfri. Furthermore, this case study was ba

The aim of this study is to understand how urban design can be used in order to integrate and create conditions for sustainable mobility. This is done at both national and municipal level by choosing two municipalities, Malmö and Linköping municipality. The methods used are document analysis and interviews with employees at each municipality. The analysis is done according to the theoretical frame

With climate change as one of our most acute current issues and a large share of the population living in urban areas, the bicycle is often seen as a sustainable solution. In Sweden, personal car use is responsible for a large share of the pollution. The benefits of cycling reach from improvements in personal health, to economic gains and a more environmentally sustainable transport system. The ci
