Dividend is a much-debated subject and has been compared to a puzzle with no sole solution to explain why firms pay dividend. Many academics have tried to determine what company variables determines a firm’s dividend policy. These studies have provided different explanatory variables to explain why firms pay dividends. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to fill in a piece of the dividen

This thesis evaluates the conduct of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in relation to a tripartite Memorandum of Understanding with Sweden and Afghanistan, which aims to facilitate voluntary return of Afghan asylum seekers from Sweden to Afghanistan. The Memorandum was concluded in the context of deteriorating security in Afghanistan and the vocal opposition of a community of asylu

Den här uppsatsen behandlar förvärv av aktiebolags egna aktier (återköp). Återköp tilläts för noterade publika aktiebolag 2000. Sverige var då ett av de sista länderna i Europa som tillät återköp. Återköp ger svenska aktiebolag möjlighet att på ett enkelt sätt överföra överskottslikviditet till aktieägarna, optimera bolagets kapitalstruktur och använda återköpta aktier vid företagsförvärv. Ett åte

Brevmall A. Reading course in Classical anthropological theory (PhD level) A third level (PhD) “reading course” does not involve any teaching and typically only has one or a few participants taking part in the course. A reading course for 7,5 credits should cover an ambitious and demanding reading material, which exact page number can vary depending on the nature of texts (i.e., heavy dominance of

Sammanfattning I den här uppsatsen har jag undersökt fyra tidningsmediers rapportering om den statliga myndigheten Tillväxtverket och dess generaldirektör Christina Lugnet i samband med de ekonomiska oegentligheter som uppdagades sommaren 2012. Uppgifterna om hur man på myndigheten gått emot regler för intern represenation och upphandling ledde till att Lugnet avskedades från sin post som generald

In the fall of 2007 a collective of artists in southern Sweden made waves for themselves by attempting to construct a rather unique ‘club-format’ unlike any other in the [then] current Swedish underground club scene. Guided mainly by a self-proclaimed ‘notion of confusion’ as its foundational principle, the collective behind Klubb Kristallen branded itself as an aspiring anti-club by seeking to ch

Where does generalized trust—that is, the inclination to place trust in strangers—come from? Our claim is that in economic action, sources of generalized trust may not differ much from the sources of personalized trust. Contrary to a common assumption of a sharp distinction between personalized and generalized trust, we assert a likely spillover effect from relational exchange to a person’s expect

NIB - Visualisering av biologins många ansikten. Livsvetenskaperna är ett samlingsnamn för forskningsgrenar som studerar biologiskt liv och dess förutsättningar. Området har vuxit snabbt de senaste åren och stora landvinningar har gjorts med ny teknisk utveckling. Teknikerna är dock behäftade med viss osäkerhet, då det kan vara svårt att skilja biologiska fynd från tekniska störelement. Jag har dLife-sciences have developed at a rapid pace during recent years. From experiments investigating single molecules such as proteins or single genes to large scale projects mapping entire organisms in one single experiment. However, data generated from this kind of large scale projects need to be interpreted and integrated with the base of prior knowledge in an efficient, reliable and correct way. T

Stamceller är celler som kan omvandlas till vilken celltyp som helst, vilket gör dem mycket användbara inom olika medicinska behandlingar och undersökningar. Stamceller kan exempelvis behandla cancer och diabetes, men skulle även kunna användas till att bota förlamning. Idag pågår det mycket forskning kring hur vanliga celler kan omvandlas till stamceller. Genom att manipulera mängden olika transkSince stem cells have many applications in medicine and can be used for treating e.g. cancer and diabetes, finding efficient methods for producing them is a relevant area of research. Cell reprogramming is such a method and our collaborators recently showed that adding Hic2 to the existing protocols of methods increases the efficiency from 1% to 10%. In this thesis, I aim to investigate how an add

Sverige har som en del i EU:s fria rörlighet stiftat utlänningslagen kapitel 3a som reglerar rätten för EES-medborgare att uppehålla sig, och arbeta i Sve-rige utan uppehålls- eller arbetstillstånd. Frågan som behandlas i denna upp-sats är om en person med dubbla medborgarskap kan klassas som förmånstagare enligt rörlighetsdirektivet och hur rättstillämpningen ser ut för dem, till skillnad från deAs a part of the EU's free movement, EU-citizens can reside and work in Sweden without a residence or work permit. The question addressed in this essay is whether a person with dual citizenship can be classified as a benefi-ciary according to the free movement directive and how the application of the law differs for them compared to those with only one citizenship.

Popular Abstract in Swedish The phenol oxidase “laccase” was first described towards the end of the 19th century from the wound sap of the lacquer tree Rhus vernicifera. However, its use in one of the oldest biotechnologies, i.e. the making of lacquerware in East-Asia, dates back to 5000-6000 BC. The enzyme has the widest distribution in nature among the multicopper oxidases. It catalyzes one elecLaccase, the phenol oxidizing enzyme, was first described towards the end of the 19th century from the wound sap of the lacquer tree Rhus vernicifera. The enzyme has the widest distribution in nature among the multicopper oxidases. It catalyzes single electron transfer oxidation in the presence of molecular oxygen producing water as by-product. Based on these highly desired mild oxidising conditio

This paper re-focuses the Silk Road discussions from the position of contemporary art in Central Asian region. Since the late 1980s contemporary art in Central Asia boomed and it eventually became an alternative public space for the discussion of cultural transformations, social and global processes and problems that local societies faced. Initially the questions raised by many artists concerned i
