Explaining the Arab Uprisings of 2011 : the origins and outcomes of contagion16 July 2015 (has links)
M.A. (Politics) / The study undertakes to establish whether the Arab uprisings of 2011 can be understood as the product of a process of contagion or diffusion, and to analyse how protests spread between Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. A framework of diffusion is developed from the literature in light of which the protests in these countries are analysed. Furthermore, the aim is to determine whether the outcomes of the uprisings have resulted in Tunisia, Egypt and Libya being any more democratic than they were before. For this purpose, political conditions in these countries are analysed against a framework of democratic transition. The study finds that the protests in late 2010 and 2011 did in fact originate in Tunisia and spread to Egypt and then Libya through a process of diffusion, by which adopters in Egypt and Libya emulated the behaviour of protesters in Tunisia who had demonstrated a successful innovation. Evidence for this is found in the analysis of the elements and mechanisms of the diffusion process, specifically in the master frames of protesters, particular features of protests common to all three countries, and similarities and channels of communication between transmitters and adopters. Only in Tunisia is the outcome of the uprising found to have produced democratic results. The country has met most of the procedural requirements of democracy in addition to developing many key democratic values in the transition process. In Egypt, the state has reverted back to the control of the old regime’s security apparatus, and Egyptians enjoy even less protection of human and civil rights than before. The failure of Libya’s transitional authorities to harness the rogue militias that emerged after the civil war has resulted in the virtual absence of the rule of law and the almost complete delegitimisation of the country’s young democratic institutions. With the emergence of two rival parliaments Libya risks further descent into chaos.

Impacto de las remesas internas sobre la condición de pobreza 2004-2010Gutiérrez Amaya, José Antonio Guillermo 04 November 2013 (has links)
La remisión de remesas internas puede generar beneficios significativos para quienes las reciben, especialmente en el cambio de condición de pobreza en la que viven las familias receptoras de estas transferencias. Así como se ha observado en los últimos años una migración internacional en aumento, hacia países desarrollados en busca de oportunidades; las familias menos favorecidas, vulnerables o en situación de pobreza o pobreza extrema, y que
no cuentan con los recursos para un viaje internacional, también deciden migrar pero internamente, lo que se conoce como una migración del campo a la ciudad. Algunas de estas familias cuentan entre sus miembros con una persona que decide migrar con el objetivo de trabajar y generar recursos económicos que le permita salir de su condición de vulnerabilidad o pobreza y remitir a su familia dinero, el mismo que le ayuda a enfrentar la difícil situación
que atraviesan. / Tesis

Framtagande av riktlinjer för arbetsplatsbesök enligt nya Plan- och bygglagenLind, Andreas January 2011 (has links)
A new site- and construction-law came into effect in May 2011. The new law, PBL 2010:900 implies several different changes of the law. These changes concern both constructors, people working in municipality and county councils and other people that in some way are related to the building sector. Except from the change in order of the chapters and the renewed and modernized language, the law has now been extended with a few new phases. According to the new law a certificate has to be issued to start and finish the construction; the construction consulting has changed name into technical consulting and the protocol for the controls has to show what the control is being compared to. This diploma work concerns control visits on construction sites as related to the new law. The reason why visits on construction sites are now implemented in the law is because the government saw a lack of trustworthiness in the old law. This because there was no kind of control that what was once approved to be built actually was being built, and nothing else. There was neither any controls to see if the building was actually following applicable rules and regulations. Because of this, the municipalities are now in need of education to deal with these changes in the law, especially when it comes to visits on construction sites. Even though the authority Boverket is offering a lot of information and education and even though there are several accredited companies that handle the education in the new law there is room for a deepening investigation in the matters of the visits. The municipality of Tierp had a request for guidelines on how to handle the visits. Therefore, in this thesis, guidelines for these matters of site visits have been proposed.

En studie om potentiella förklaringsfaktorer till Sverigedemokraternas valframgångar i kommunvalet år 2010Risberg, Josefine January 2012 (has links)
En högerpopulistisk våg har spridit sig till flera länder i Europa under de senaste åren. Även i Sverige har denna våg sakta men säkert uppenbarat sig. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka vilka av studiens inkluderade faktorer (d.v.s. arbetslöshet, lågutbildning, brottslighet, ohälsa samt utrikes födda) som uppvisar starka samband till kommuner där Sverigedemokraterna fick ett starkt väljarstöd i kommunvalet år 2010. Studiens teori utgår från att de kommuner som har en hög andel arbetslöshet, lågutbildning, brottslighet, ohälsoantal och utrikes födda även tenderar att ha ett högt väljarstöd för Sverigedemokraterna. Studien är av kvantitativ karaktär där Sveriges samtliga 290 kommuner studeras. Olika typer av regressionsanalyser genomförs i statistik programmet SPSS för att besvara studiens frågeställningar. Resultatet visar att det i stort sett inte existerar något samband mellan röster på Sverigedemokraterna och arbetslöshet, ohälsa och utrikes födda. Vidare visar resultatet att det existerar ett visst samband mellan röster på Sverigedemokraterna och brottslighet, och även mellan röster på Sverigedemokraterna och lågutbildning.

Valspurten 2010 i Dagens Nyheter : Politiskt vinklad journalistik på nyhetsplats / The Swedish 2010 election coverage in Dagens Nyheter : Politically biased or unbiased?Vilhelmsson, Kent, Ferhatovic, Muhamed January 2010 (has links)
This essay speaks about the medial coverage made by the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter. The periods examined are the two weeks before the election day (5 September – 19 September 2010). The purpose of our study is to find out if the newspaper was neutral and did not write in favour of any political party or political block in the newssection. After the elections in Sweden 2010 there have been discussions about the medias in the country being biased, and claims have been made that the news have been written in favour of a certain political party or a bloc. Dagens Nyheter is a newspaper that is respected in Sweden and their debate-page called “Dagens Nyheter - Debate” is agenda-setting for the rest of the media in Sweden. Therefore it is important to see whether this newspaper was publishing articles in favour of a political party or not.

Löneandelens förändring 1975-2010 : Teori och empiri / Change in labor share 1975-2010 : Theory and empiricismÖsterman, Karl Henrik, Henriksson, Anna Isabell January 2014 (has links)
Sedan 1970-talet har större delen av världen upplevt en minskande löneandelen. Vi försöker förklara utvecklingen med en enklare modell bestående av två typer av arbetskraft. Vi visar att på kort sikt påverkar arbetskraftens sammansättning löneandelens utveckling vid arbetskrafts utbudschocker. Empirisk studie av paneldata ger inga statistiskt signifikanta resultat vilket skulle kunna orsakas av bristfällig data och att de länder för vilka data existerar är i hög grad homogena.

Annual Report 2010 - Institute of Safety Research01 October 2013 (has links) (PDF)
The Institute of Safety Research (ISR) was over the past 20 years one of the six Research Institutes of Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf e.V. (FZD), which in 2010 belonged to the Wissenschaftsgemeinschaft Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz. Together with the Institutes of Radiochemistry and Radiation Physics, ISR implements the research programme „Nuclear Safety Research“ (NSR), which was during last years one of the three scientific programmes of FZD. NSR involves two main topics, i.e. “Safety Research for Radioactive Waste Disposal” and “Safety Research for Nuclear Reactors”. The research of ISR aims at assessing and enhancing the safety of current and future reactors, the development of advanced simulation tools including their validation against experimental data, and the development of the appropriate measuring techniques for multi-phase flows and liquid metals.
