Slopes in fine till soils are exposed to surface erosion due to rainfall, snowmelt and upland water sources. Large areas of road slopes are therefore covered for surface erosion protection. Preventive methods like ditches and trenches are also being used. Silt tills are particularly troublesome since the water can bring the soil into suspension and cause mudslides. Different methods for erosion protection have been studied in this work, with the emphasis placed on rockfill covering. The need for and the dimensioning of this type of covering has been examined in literature and field studies.

In 2007 the Swedish government appointed a commission of inquiry with the task to submit a proposal of reduction in the requirement of a minimum legal capital for private limited liability companies. The commission of inquiry?s main proposal involved a reduction to SEK 50,000 compared to the prevailing SEK 100,000. Following a complementary proposal from the Justice Department suggesting a reduction to SEK 1, this paper aims at providing an understanding of the function and purpose of a minimum legal capital and the consequences that follows from an abolition of the statutory capital requirement. The thesis concludes that the legal capital?s main purpose is that of a standard contract internalizing the shareholder?s risk in business.

The Latvian building company Laval un Partneri Ltd (Laval) posted Latvian construction workers at the rebuilding of a school in Vaxholm in autumn 2004. Because the company refused to sign a collective agreement with Svenska Byggnadsarbetareförbundet (Byggnads), which is the Swedish trade union for constructions workers, Byggnads put the construction site under a boycott. Next Laval sued Byggnads for damages in the Swedish Labour Court (AD) because Laval considers the boycott as well as Byggnad´s demand that Laval signs a collective agreement incompatible with EC Law. AD has now demanded a preliminary ruling from the European Court of Justice (ECJ). While waiting for the preliminary ruling from the ECJ, several important questions of principle stand unanswered.

Transfer pricing including internal loans have increased in recent years, making it easier for companies to minimize their taxable income. After the Swedish court case Diligentia, there have been discussions regarding the influence of a parent company's transparency and control of the subsidiary with regards to the interest rates on internal loans. In court cases that followed Diligentia, the Swedish Tax Agency argued that a parent company always could be assumed to have sufficient transparency and control of the operations in the subsidiary, and therefore reduce the risk on their debt obligations. This thesis seeks to analyze the effects of the transparency and control a parent company has with regards to interest rates on internal loans. The analysis is conducted by analyzing court cases similar to Diligentia.

The development of our time, is due to great progresses in technology and an enormous ex-plosion of knowledge, has lead to an increased effort of our attention as a result of a boundless torrent of information . Higher productivity and efficiency in our workplaces and homes crea-tes fewer opportunities for rest, leading to a community where stress has become a national disease. Recreation is an important part of our lives in order to be able to deal with stress and is now considered to be an essential resource when it comes to sustainable development. Green spaces are therefore today viewed to play a considerable roll for the national health. Nature has proven to have positive influence on man which leads to a decrease in blood pressure, an increase in power of concentration and lowered production of stress hormones.

Are there differences and similarities in the way that the teachers I interviewed work with current conflict? What factors, according to the informants starts a conflict? What is the teachers? definition of a conflict and how does their definition affect their approach when working with conflicts?In my study, I have used a qualitative approach in the form of structured interview, to get material for my thesis.

Vår uppsats handlar om begreppet utanförskap och dess breda handlingsområde. Utanförskap är ett begrepp som under den senaste tiden blivit ett vanligt slagord i massmedier och i det offentliga politiska samtalet. I den politiska diskursen om utanförskap finns det ett bestämt sätt att prata om invandrare, bidragsberoende och kriminella som stående utanför samhället. Inom det sociala arbetet används utanförskapsbegreppet som ett symboliskt och metaforiskt begrepp för att beskriva olika slags sociala problem. Under 2014 kom det även ut flera samhällskritiska hiphop-låtar som hade begreppet ?Utanförskap? som rubrik.

Ordet attraktiv stad används dagligen, men själva begreppet är komplex och svårdefinierat. Å ena sidan den är stark kopplad till individens egen uppfattning och åt andra sidan rymmer den många olika faktorer. Utifrån litteratur som studerades så framkom det att ett fysiskt rum i detta fall en attraktiv stad är svår att planera om inte begreppet fastställs. Det finns många teoretiker som har försökt förklara begreppet och rymma in alla faktorer under en och samma definition. Trots detta allomfattande forskningen finns det idag ingen fastställd teori eller konkret definition på vad som utgör en attraktiv stad, varken i den nyare eller äldre litteratur.I examensarbetet undersöks begreppet attraktiv stad/ attraktiv småstad.

Uppsatsen behandlar skatteflyktslagen ingående och en definition av begreppet skatteflykt presenteras. Även begreppen skattefusk och skatteplanering bearbetas. Vidare nämns metoden genomsyn då den är ett alternativt sätt att angripa skatteflyktsförfaranden på.Uppsatsens syfte är att utreda vilka omständigheter som krävs för att skatteflyktslagen ska bli tillämplig samt om lagen är tolkningsbar. Om så inte är fallet utreds hur lagen kan omarbetas. Det framkommer att lagen går att tillämpa och tolka men svårigheter föreligger.

This paper addresses how political parties make decisions. Parties often have to choose between conflicting objectives such as influence on policy, control of the government, and support among the voters. This paper examines the behavior of the two Swedish parties on one of their particular policy positions: Swedish withdrawal from the EU. The aim is to describe why the Left Party (Vänsterpartiet) and the Green Party (Miljöpartiet) retain thisspecific policy position when it on one hand seems damaging to their chances of getting into government, and on the other seems to be an unrealistic policy to realize. I undertake a twocase study of the two Swedish parties, which I assume to represent a population of Nordic parties critical to the EU.

Det här examensarbetet är utfört på uppdrag av Skanska Väg och Anläggning Region Stockholm/Mälardalen med syftet att inventera byggprocessen vid markupphandling i tidigt skede och samarbetet mellan BoKlok Housing AB, Skanska Väg och Anläggning och Distrikt Affär.Bakgrunden till arbetet är att Skanska Väg och Anläggning upplever vissa svårigheter i sitt samarbete med sitt dotterbolag BoKlok Housing AB. Samarbetet gäller framförallt framtagandet av kostnadsbedömningar och utförandet av markarbeten som Distrikt Affär och Skanska Väg och Anläggning gör åt BoKlok Housing AB. Svårigheterna uppstår på grund av olika förutsättningar för olika projekt och dålig kommunikation. Det som försvårar problemet ytterligare är att det ingår en tredje part, Affär Distrikt, som är Skanskas nystartade affärsenhet. Affär Distrikt tar fram kostnadsförslaget medan Skanska Väg och Anläggning utför själva arbetet i projekten.Studien har genomförts med fokus på byggprocessen, organisationen och det som i dagligt tal kallas ?tidiga skeden?.
