This essay has examined the effects that new issues had on the four Swedish football clubs that are organized as sport limited companies. The difference between a limited company and a sporting limited company is that the clubs always have majority ownership by the 51% rule. Previous research on sport limited companies and on new issues has been associated with the agent theory and the pecking order theory in order to explain the effects.The thesis is a qualitative study with an inductive approach, where the interviews have been selected as the method of collecting data. Through the years the clubs have performed new issues several times. The study says that the clubs perform a new issue for two reasons, either for investment purposes or because they have a poor economy and must collect liquid assets.

This paper examines possible applications of fuzzy logic on the field of artificial intelligence in digital games. It describes fuzzy logic in contrast to crisp logic. The paper will give several examples of possible applications of fuzzy logic-based decision making for game AI. These examples include the choosing of weapons for AI agents and the gas-break decision of an AI-controlled car. The paper will also analyze the impacts of game AI which makes decisions based on many factors.

Abstract We have in this thesis examined two elite hockey clubs in the Swedish Elite League, Brynäs IF and Linköpings HC.

Integrationsklausuler (Eng. ?merger clause?, ?entire agreement clause? eller ?integration clause?) är en allt vanligare företeelse i svenska, kommersiella avtal. Klausulernas syfte är att säkerställa att det skriftliga avtalet utgör parternas fullständiga överenskommelse samt reglera hur tillägg och förändringar av avtalet ska ske. Vanligtvis anger integrationsklausuler även att det skriftliga avtalet ersätter alla tidigare överenskommelser, avtal eller utfästelser.

The Swedish security policy has changed from stressing neutrality to embrace co-operation within the EU and other organisations. New threats like terrorism, boarder-crossing criminality and natural disasters require new ways to deal with this type of problems to protect the society. Since the beginning of 21st century the high Russian economic growth has made it possible for the country to play an increasingly role as a superpower on the international political stage. In the same time the democratic development has been replaced by an autocratic rule which has obstructed the Russian- European relations. From a Swedish security policy view the Russian political development is of importance and the picture of Russian as a threat has changed from 1996 to 2008/09.

Företagsuppköp är en vanlig företeelse på aktiemarknaden och sker ofta då en budgivare tror att ett målbolag har en outnyttjad värdemaximeringspotential, exempelvis pga. att den nuvarande ledningen inte utnyttjar bolagets resurser optimalt.Av denna anledning finns det ofta skäl för ett målbolags ledning att anta att de kommer att bytas ut om ett uppköp går igenom varför de får incitament att motarbeta budet. Budet kommer härvid att definieras som ett fientligt bud och de åtgärder som vidtas för att förhindra budets genomförande kallas för försvarsåtgärder.Man kan här genast se att en intressekonflikt aktualiseras. Målbolagets aktieägare har ett intresse av att få så hög avkastning om möjligt på den investering som de gjort i bolaget, ett attraktivt bud kan härvid vara av stort intresse. Målbolagets ledning, å andra sidan, kan ofta räkna med att bli avsatt vid ett lyckat uppköp och kan därför ha anledning att motarbeta även ett för aktieägarna gynnsamt bud.Mot bakgrund av denna intressekonflikt har två skilda system för reglering kring försvarsåtgärder utvecklats.

The aim of this paper is to look into the occurrence of home schooling by choice in Sweden. It examines the subject of home education in order to provide an informative overview. It also looks into the legal aspects of the matter to see whether freedom of choice is an issue here when it comes to choosing a certain type of teaching for children of compulsory school age. A further purpose is to provide a comparison of home education in Sweden and in other countries such as the United States, England and Norway.In order to do this we have carried out a secondary analysis of previous research and have also interviewed teachers as well as people with experience of home educating their own children. To accomplish this, we had to look to England for literature and home educating families as home education is a much more common practise in England.The result of this paper strongly indicates that home schooling is not only a legally viable option to traditional schooling, both in Sweden and the other countries concerned, but that it is also a trend that is expected to increase.

Since the war ended in Bosnia and Herzegovina in1995 the country's economic and political crisies has grown dramatically. As in so many other Post-communist states the corruption has become a large problem for the whole society. The ethnic entities in which Bosnia is divided makes it possible for the national parties to operate and rule the same political propaganda that was the result of the war in the first place. However the international forces like the EU and the USA have made this kind of no non-centralised governmentship possible through the Dayton peace agreement, according to many experts this has to change in the constitution by any means possible if Bosnia will have a future. By the thesis of Professor Susan Rose-Ackerman the theoretical analysing tool should be followed for the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Det ha?r a?r en studie med utga?ngspunkt i journalisten och musikern Kristian Gidlunds sja?lvbiografiska bloggbera?ttelse i kroppen min, som han skrev sedan han blev sjuk i cancer i mars 2011 tills dess att han dog i september 2013, strax innan sin 30-a?rs dag.

The purpose of this thesis is to explore and analyze the processes and efforts involved in rebuilding the war-torn state of Afghanistan. The examined period span from the fall of the Taliban regime in 2001, to the elections in 2005. This period, commonly known as the Bonn-process, sets out the initial time for the reconstruction of the state.A theoretical framework, which considers the necessary mechanisms for successful state-building, will be used to analyze Afghanistan's re-building process. The mechanisms include the prerequisite of a stable security environment, emerging from a cease-fire, together with the development of a well-functioning economy, re-introduction of Rule of Law and rejuvenating civil society.The failure to establish a secure environment has had a devastating impact on all analyzed aspects of the re-building process. It is therefore crucial that the international society continuing to assists the Afghan government in its efforts to strengthen its capacity, in order to improve the security situation.

This master thesis concerns the relation between law and the theory of the conceptual metaphor which has developed within cognitive linguistics. Although its main focus is abstract thinking, it also covers a wide range of aspects within cognitive linguistics, such as the prototype theory and radial categories. In order to address this relation, three questions will be dealt with. Firstly, does the theory of the conceptual metaphor have relevance to interpretation of legal rules and contracts? Secondly, can the same theory explain why a legal rule or a contractual term has been interpreted outside of its most given area of application? Thirdly, when an interpretation is not predictable from a legal viewpoint, can such an explanation answer to that fact? Answering the first question will require a descriptive analysis of the conceptual metaphor and cognitive linguistics.
