Container Security Initiative was launched in 2002 by the US Customs and Border Patrol in order to secure the global flow of containers destined for USA. This thesis attempts to analyze Container Security Initiative in relation to a possible future scenario made by the weapons industry where the state's global traderoutes are being subject to militarization. A development which is partly based on the threat posed by global illegal trade. The latter is discussed and defined based on current research made by Carolyn Nordstrom, Moíses Naím and theories on the cosmopolitan perspective made by Ulrich Beck. Strategy documents concerning Container Security Initiative are then analyzed in terms of discourse to try to say something about what the program indicates.

When migration to a country increases, the integration of the migrants becomes extra important for the host country?s society, economy and culture. In the last decade, Europe has faced several crises, such as the refugee crisis and the covid-19 pandemic, which has affected both migration and integration policy. The challenges that have characterized European society in recent years makes it interesting to study how the measures highlighted by the European Commission to integrate migrants has developed. Therefore, the paper aims to compare the Commission?s action plans for integration published in 2016 and 2020 based on the threat theory and the contact theory to see how both perspectives can contribute to understanding the differences between the years and which theory is best suited to understand the Commission?s current visions of integration.

The present research examined both automatic and controlled processes in newpapers ability of priming racial stereotypes via the portrayals of people of foreign extraction. The automatic process were examined through articles which; a) involved an illegal act or b) the act was not illegal but morally questionable. Swedish-born subject?s explicit opinions against foreign people were also measured through ?The Modern Racial Prejudice Scale?. In the experiment participants read four different articles which included; Swedish person/noncrime, foreign person/noncrime, Swedish person/crime and foreign person/crime.

En europeisk upphovsman har teoretiskt sett samma skydd för sitt verk vid illegal fildelning såväl inom som utom EU. På grund av internationella överenskommelser finns det regler om ensamrätt i nästan alla länder som Sverige har ekonomiskt eller kulturellt samarbete med, varför upphovsmannens skydd är relativt starkt. Utanför EU, med undantag för EFTA-länderna, finns dock inga krav på att länderna ska införa regler om informationsföreläggande och interimistiskt förbud. Reglerna är införda i alla EU-länders lagstiftning genom Ipred-direktivet och innebär en betydlig förenkling för upphovsmannen när det gäller att identifiera intrångsgöraren och stoppa intrånget. Utöver intrångsförfarandets praktiska fördelar finns inom EU även klara regler gällande internationell privaträtt, vilket gör att upphovsmannen kan vara säker på var denne får föra process och vilket lands lag som ska användas.

`When one does not have what one wants, one must want what one has´: `I have had, you see, to resort more and more to very small, almost invisible pleasures, little extras....You´ve no idea how great one becomes with these little details, it´s incredible how one grows. ´ The aim of this master thesis is to find words and expressions that can accompany city phenomenas as well as the people wandering through the space which is defiened as city. Through this tentative search a new term was found namely Urban Settler Marks. This term started a journey and an attempt to theoretisize why people have a need for various spaces to put their Urban Settlers Marks onto. My focus was drawn to electrical boxes in the urban environment because of their ambigious nature.

I denna uppsats behandlar vi en form av illegal IT-användning, nedladdning av upphovsrättskyddat material via Internet. Undersökningen är koncentrerad till att undersöka om beteendet gällande nedladdning hos studenter förändrats till följd av den förändrade upphovsrättslagen som i juli 2005 trädde i kraft. Beteendet innebär om studenterna förändrat sin nedladdningsfrekvens och sitt tillvägagångssätt efter lagändringen jämfört med innan lagändringen samt vilka orsaker som ligger bakom det aktuella beteendet. Undersökningen genomfördes vid Örebro universitet.För att samla in data till denna undersökning gjordes en enkätundersökning som besvarades av 153 stycken individer. Data för att sammanställa inledning, frågeställning och syfte samlades i huvudsak in från artiklar och information som funnits via Internet.Det vi kom fram till i denna undersökning var att nedladdningsfrekvensen och antalet som fortfarande laddar ned är mindre efter lagändringen än det var innan.

Digitaliseringen under 2000-talet har förändrat många branscher. Utbredningen av illegal fildelning är en av de utmaningar som dykt upp, utbredd bland i övrigt laglydiga människor. Samtidigt sker en framväxt av nya sätt att konsumera på internet, som tar avstamp i fildelningstekniken men fungerar inom lagliga ramar. Uppsatsen har mot bakgrund av detta drivits av att undersöka hur fildelning motiveras: Hur ser argumenten ut för och emot illegal fildelning? I detta arbete undersöks de argument som används för att rättfärdiga fildelning av musik, genom en kvalitativ argumentationsanalys, kombinerad med Boltanski Thévenots teori om rättfärdigande och värdeordningar.

Uppsatsen handlar om illegala immigrationen och dess effekt i staden Rom. Europa möter idag ett stort problem för att stoppa illegala flyktingar från att ta sig över gränsen till kontinenten. Immigrationsvågen har ökat kraftigt de senaste åren och var ett av de största diskussion ämne i EU toppmötet i Bryssel juni 2003. Italien är en av de Europeiska länder som har blivit en port för illegala immigranter för att komma in Europa.Syftet med uppsatsen är att ge en bättre uppfattning för sambanden som finns mellan illegal immigration och staden Rom. Undersökningen i uppsatsen behandlar den illegala immigrationens omfattning och karaktär som ett fenomen i staden Rom.

With the digital revolution within video games, the need for Digital Rights Management (DRM) has increased significantly, alongside with the increasing problem of copyright pirates. To counter pirates, DRM was created to prevent illegal copying of software, this to ensure that the Distributors received an income for their work. DRM has, since the start of its use, been getting, a lot of bad criticism from the users of the software protected by DRM. The main function of this paper is to describe the creation and development of DRM by analysis of the vision of different groups on this phenomenon. The main questions are as follows, is it possible to define the very reason for why DRM was created and if so, can its development through time be defined too? What differences in opinions are there when it comes to DRM, counting the two major groups of creators, sellers, distributors (referred to as distributors) versus individual users (referred to as consumers)? In what way will the research results suggest that the future DRM will develop?The development has gone from solving puzzles in a handbook to start the game each time the user wants to play, to serial numbers that is needed during the installation of the game.

Art.39 är grindvakten som inleder kapitel VII i FN-stadgan och tröskeln vid vilken säkerhetsrådet går från att vara ett multilateralt organ till ett globalt verkställande organ. Konceptet ?threat to the peace? är det bredaste, otydligaste och viktigaste begreppet i art.39 FN-stadgan. Genom att framställa de centrala förutsättningarna för tillämpningen av art. 40-42, öppnar art.

Title: Two sides of the same coin. A quantative content analysis of how Swedish daily press frames beggingAuthors: Mirjam Hultin, Linda Moström & Caroline WidenheimSubject: Undergraduate research paper in journalism studiesLocation: Dept. of journalism, media and communication (JMG) University of GothenburgTerm: Spring 2014Supervisor: Britt Börjesson, JMG, University of GothenburgLanguage: SwedishNumber of pages: 45 (excluding appendix)Background: During the late twentieth century, there was a debate in the daily press concerning the increase of homeless and beggars in Stockholm. Voices arose wanting to make it illegal to beg, especially in the subways. Today, the issue is again up for debate now focusing on the increase of migrants from poor countries of the European Union.Purpose: The main purpose is to examine how the phenomena beggary is portrayed in the daily press.

The purpose of this essay is to draw attention to the obstacles that affects the internal trade of waste within the EU. The essay doesn?t in any way encourage pollution or illegal handling of waste but unfortunately there are large profits to be made from illegal destruction and recycling of waste and especially hazardous wastes. Therefore the dependable companies handling waste must access a market with fast and flexible (but predictable) regulations as well as lower transaction costs to help make the environment better and encourage a strive for increased recycling. There are examples where some waste only can be sent to a land-fill within the country but could be recycled in other EU-countries.

 The aim of this essay is to examine if the Swedish Major labels are moving towards making their catalogue available on different platforms rather than their traditional distribution of music. The new technology has really stirred things up for the major labels and file-sharing has been a problem for a long time. The labels have a history of fighting new formats instead of embracing them and listen to what their consumers actually want. We have found that the majors now are in the leading edge of music distribution due to technology and that is a first. We have focused this essay on if the consumption of music has changed the distribution of it or the other way around and found that people have changed their ways of consuming music over the years and the labels have always been forced to adapt.

The purpose with this study is to investigate how the two biggest political parties, the Social Democrats and the Moderate/Conservative Party, looks at a membership in the defense alliance North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The question have the illegal annexation of Crimea affected how the parties look at a membership in Nato will be answered and analyzed. How they discuss, how they believe that a membership can affect the Swedish foreign policy will be examined in this paper. Nato is a topic that during the last century?s have divided the Swedish population into two groups: one that advocates a membership and one that fight?s against a Swedish membership in the alliance. The debate about Nato has, since the illegal annexation of the Crimea, changed and are now more relevant than ever to discuss.
