Too-big-to-fail has been a subject of controversy and has gained much attention in the course of the sub-prime financial crisis 2007-2009. Subjects related under this topic for instance are usually about the excessive risk taken by the government, and moral hazard. In this paper, we perform an analysis to examine the existence of too-big-to-fail impact on the banking sector in Switzerland during t
Det finns olika möjligheter för barn att få komma till tals och det är domstolens skyldighet att se till att barnets åsikter kommer fram i målet. Barn kan för det första få komma till tals i en vårdnadsutredning eller innan snabbupplysningar sker av socialnämnden. För det andra kan barnet också komma till tals inför rätten. I praktiken har det funnits brister i hur tillämpningen av rätten att koFamily law disputes concerning the custody, residence and contact of children have increased in recent years. Judgments made by the court in the resolution of disputes have significant short and long term consequences for the children involved. The child is not a party to the proceedings. Instead the child has a right to be heard and a right to have his or her best interests taken as a primary con
BACKGROUND: Job strain, defined as high job demands and low job control, has not previously been explored as a possible determinant of male fertility. We collected prospective data on job strain among men, and describe the associations with semen quality and probability of conceiving a clinical pregnancy during a menstrual cycle. METHODS: Danish couples (N = 399) who were trying to become pregnant
The dryer fabric influences the mass and heat transfer, separating the hot, moist paper from the ambient drying air. A dynamic model is presented describing this mass and heat transfer in a dryer fabric based on the fabric parameters: effective diffusivity, porosity, tortuosity, calliper, effective permeability, thermal conductivity and basis weight. The model predicts moisture, temperature and pr
Despite the general consensus on the urgent need for climate mitigation, the achievements of the climate regime have so far been discouraging. The supportiveness of pre-existing global governance institutions should be achieved to enable truly ambitious climate policy. In this thesis, I investigate the theory of regulatory chill in interactions between the WTO and the UNFCCC by examining climate c
De provokativa åtgärderna är en polisiär arbets- och utredningsmetod, vilken traditionellt beskrivs som att polisen i sitt brottsbekämpande arbete lockar fram beteenden från en enskild brottsmisstänkt, i form av yttranden eller handlingar, som kan vara ofördelaktiga för vederbörande. De provokativa åtgärderna har använts inom den polisiära verksamheten en längre tid, trots avsaknad av lagregleringProvocative measures can be described as a an investigation method, whereas the police entices to behaviour through expressions or actions, which in some aspect are unfavourable or disadvantegous for the provoced person. Provocative measures have been used as an investigation method by the Swedish police for a longer time, even though no legislation legitimizes or regulates its usage. The uncertai
Den 1 juli 2018 ändrades svensk sexualbrottslagstiftning i grunden då bedömningen för vad som utgör ett sexuellt övergrepp förändrades till att definieras utifrån huruvida deltagandet i sexuell kontakt sker frivilligt. Ändringarna som infördes i brottsbalken brukar gemensamt kallas samtyckeslagen. Förändringen innebar även att ett nytt brott, oaktsam våldtäkt som regleras i 6 kap. 1 a § brottIn July 2018, the Swedish legislation regarding sexual assault fundamentally changed in terms of which criminal acts are considered to be a violation of the law. Among these changes was the implementation of the new criminal offence of negligent rape, found in the sixth chapter of the Swedish penal code, which opposedly to the previous ruling that only included intentional acts, now criminali
Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda skillnaderna mellan brotten kränkande fotografering i 4 kap. 6 a § BrB och sexuellt ofredande i 6 kap. 10 § BrB. I studien redogörs för lagrummens uppbyggnad, hur rekvisiten är utformade samt hur dessa tillämpas och tolkas av domstolarna. Huvudsakligt fokus ligger på situationer som innebär fotografering av ett eller flera brottsobjekt utan samtycke och hur det
After the dust had settled from the second world war, western Europe experienced increased levels of material wellbeing. Education, income, and security were on the rise. This led to a wave of new values of self-expression and a shift away from security, economic and class based political conflict. As this also coincided with a rise of mass communications and increased education more people than e
In-work poverty is a societal problem that should be prevented according to the European Pillars of Social Rights. However, the European Social Fund Plus, being the main European social policy, only addresses the issue indirectly. The aim of this thesis is to build an explanation for this partial actuation of the European Union. By adopting an abductive approach, a process-tracing is conducted to
Abstract Through the concept of discourse we understand how the reality in one domain is constructed through linguistic combinations, where each of the signs receives its meaning in relation to one another . In the following essay I analyze, through Laclau and Mouffe’s discourse theory, how the Sweden Democrats is trying to frame and establish their political discourse on immigration in the Swed
In this paper the Rawlsian contractual method–including the original position and the veil of ignorance–is used to create principles of security. The method enables transcendence from contemporary restrictions to a broadened view where general principles guide us to the most important aspects of security. The principles guide us to the core. I arrive at two and only two principles: existential sec
Background: Computed tomography (CT) scans are routinely performed in positron emission tomography (PET) and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) examinations globally, yet few surveys have been conducted to gather national diagnostic reference level (NDRL) data for CT radiation doses in positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and single photon emission computed tom
Background: Online gambling has increased in recent years, including online casino games and live sports betting which constitute rapid gambling activities with significant potential for gambling-related harm. There is a paucity of research examining whether specific gambling patterns are related to problem gambling and over-indebtedness, when controlling for psychological distress, gender, and ot
Objectives: To analyse the section of Disclosure UK that pertains to healthcare professionals (HCPs) in order to provide insight into the database’s structure and content and suggest ways to improve its transparency.Design and participants; Cohort study of drug companies and HCPs in the 2015 and 2016 versions of Disclosure UK.Results: Companies report transfers of value (ToVs) to named HCPs or, wh
Little is known about how gendered understandings of patients can inform professionals’ discretionary actions and decisions to include or exclude in clinical practice. Using Connell's poststructuralist perspectives on gender as an analytic framework, this article aims to investigate how professionals’ articulations of depression are framed by signs of masculinity and femininity, and how these arti
Background/aim: Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) has a substantial mortality rate and the acute coronary syndrome constitutes the major cause. Post-resuscitation electrocardiogram ST-elevation SCA (STE-SCA) is a strong indication for emergency coronary angiography, but the role of early angiography and PCI in patients without ST-elevation (NSTE-SCA) remains to be established. This paper aimed to descri
This paper presents the method and performance of primary vertex reconstruction in proton–proton collision data recorded by the ATLAS experiment during Run 1 of the LHC. The studies presented focus on data taken during 2012 at a centre-of-mass energy of s=8 TeV. The performance has been measured as a function of the number of interactions per bunch crossing over a wide range, from one to seventy.
The aim of this work was to determine the extent to which soot is formed and if there are any ways of reducing the formation of soot. In order to determine if soot formation will be a critical issue for the reverse flow reforming process modeling of the process was undertaken. The reformer was modeled using a detailed reaction mechanism to describe the kinetics of soot formation.The results of the
