Certain religious organisations restrict their operations to a specific geographical area despite the fact that their aim presumably would be to transcend these boundaries. They promote one overarching religious identity that is shared worldwide which is why it should not be in the organisations interests to limit themselves geographically. The study’s objective is therefore to comprehend how the

Denna uppsats fokuserar på offentliga upphandlingar och behandlar begreppet onormalt låga anbud. Dessa anbudens låga nivå kan vara grundade i dolda motiv eller missförstånd från anbudsgivaren. Detta medför att den upphandlande myndigheten kan vilja förkasta det aktuella anbudet. Den låga nivån kan däremot lika gärna vara helt legitimt och bör därmed inte förkastas. Regelverket samt praxis på områdThis thesis focuses on public procurements and deals with the concept of abnormally low tenders. The low levels in a tender can be founded in a hidden agenda or in a misunderstanding by the tenderer. This means that the contracting authority may wish to reject the current offer. The low level, on the other hand, can just as easily be completely legitimate and should therefore not be discouraged. T

This study explores the idea of flat organizational structures, which are gaining popularity due to their capacity to foster innovation and collaboration. Nevertheless, social interactions inside these organizations can still result in the emergence of social hierarchies, and some employees may hold positions of greater authority and status than others. Therefore, we examine how social hierarchies

Temporarily unavailable products in the grocery retail environment cause problems for multiple parties, resulting in possible sales losses for retailers and high dissatisfaction among consumers. With price promoted products being twice as often out-of-stock (OOS) as regular-priced items, the need for a further understanding of reactions to price promoted products is evident. The purpose of this th

Finland’s social security spending has been increasing rapidly over the past four decades, and is expected to continue increasing in the decades to come. The increase has been largely driven by population ageing resulting in increased old-age spending. Finland’s social security system is however more than just old-age social security; which warrants a more detailed analysis of the different types

We performed ultrasound measurements (QUS) of the calcaneus in a population-based setting on 280 healthy children, aged 11-16 years, from a small urban area in southern Sweden. The results are compared with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measurements in the total body, the lumbar spine and the hip, as well as single-energy X-ray absorptiometry (SXA) of the forearm. Normative data and corre

Popular science ArRiyadh, the capital city of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is one of the fastest growing cities in the world. During the last decade the population of the city has been increased to five million due to heavy migration towards the city. Due to this population pressure, the living conditions in the different neighborhoods of the city are different. The residents in any city are mainly

Problem discussion: BCC:s product portfolio includes a transplanting machine that plants seedlings from trays to the field. The machine is more than 10 years old and need improvements to meet future demands from customers around the world. The main issues are that the machine does not have the capacity to detect missing plants from trays, the planting speed needs to be higher and the row distance

In the study, three unannounced evacuation experiments have been carried out in a cinema theatre. The evacuation experiments have been used to create a specific scenario and nine Swedish fire safety consultants have then been given an assignment to accomplish an evacuation simulation of the specific scenario. The study has shown that there are variations in the choice of input data for the evacuat

Title: Necessity knows no law : A qualitative study on the processing of emergency assistance in the social services. The aim of this study was to examine how social workers make decisions about financial aid in emergency situations when the user does not have food for the day. We wanted to find out what the social worker needs to know about the user to make a decision and which decision basis th

This thesis discusses the phenomenon price manipulation, and its legislation. The definition of price manipulation is artificially deflating or inflating the price of a certain financial security. There are a number of ways to manipulate prices, and the consequences are usually tangible. Legislation in this area is relevant in several aspects. The essay highlights the key legal perspective; mainta

This paper investigates the characteristics and history of value added taxes. Many previous studies have focused on the theoretical implications of value added taxes; this paper differs in the method used as well as the phrasing of research question. This paper seeks out to answer whether a redesign of the current Value Added Tax system in Sweden could be a Pareto improvement. It looks at relevant

The aim of this paper is to map the emergence and development of a research field around the topic of “gender-based violence (GBV) against women with precarious legal status and their access to social protection in advanced welfare societies”. We explore the academic knowledge production around this topic as a specific research field by using bibliometric data. We investigate the place occupied by

Production and use of chlorophenols (CPs) are being phased out around the globe, but with considerable lag in some highlypopulated countries. The process could be incentivized by leading countries sharing their experiences on problems thatoccurred, including the built environment. We previously reported that Swedish industry and authorities promoted CPs,including pentachlorophenol (PCP), as wood p

A search is presented for the production of new heavy quarks that decay to a Z boson and a third-generation Standard Model quark. In the case of a new charge +2/3 quark (T), the decay targeted is T -> Zt, while the decay targeted for a new charge -1/3 quark (B) is B -> Zb. The search is performed with a dataset corresponding to 20.3 fb(-1) of p p collisions at root s = 8TeV recorded in 2012 with t
