Abstract:
In this thesis it is argued that while the concept of freedom of religion or belief itself is opaque and difficult to define, the right to religious freedom must contain certain basic factors – most importantly the right to individual (religious) autonomy. The individual autonomy approach is seen here as providing the necessary rationale for the protection of freedom of religion or belief. This rationale is not cemented in stone in the practice of the Convention and this has caused the Court to lose its focus on individual freedom. It is a dangerous tendency. It allows the focus to be placed o

Abstract:
My journey from an over-practice injury to the final exam concert on a master level. I start with my background and with investigating the possible reasons for my injuries, then continue with providing solutions to my problems. The solutions consist of technical advice, knowledge of ergonomy, information on the Alexander Technique, Feldenkrais and the psychological factors. The goal of this thesis was to manage to perform the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto and get away from that experinece without renewing my injury.

Abstract:
Sweden is experiencing a national housing shortage. The housing market has created a financial inequality between generations and as a result, homeownership has become unachievable for many. Citizens who have become tired of the situation have found their solution in the mobile dwelling. With the main motivation of freedom this thesis examines the role of the mobile dwelling and those who strive for mobile lifestyles, while discussing whether it is a viable way of living as it is constantly challenged.   The focus has been on investigating the challenges of living mobile, as the dwelling does

Abstract:
Introduced in 1994, the celebrated Zémor-Tillich hash function over SL_2(F_{2^n}) is mathematically elegant, efficient, and now finally broken (Grassl et. al, 2011). Yet, with a new choice of generators Tillich and Zémor's construction over SL_2(F_{2^n}) still remains of interest; looking for generators in GL_2(F_{p^n}) seems almost untouched. Here, we present a large class of generators to choose from, using a novel theorem that outlines conditions under which a set of matrices in PGL_2(F_p((x))) generates a free group, and whose proof is an interesting application of Tits' ``Ping-Pong Lemma

Abstract:
People have the right to know. More than one hundred countries have adopted Freedom of Information (FOI) laws that provide legal guarantees for protecting the right of access to information (ATI). The passage and further implementation by Vietnam of an FOI law, namely the Law on Access to Information No.104/2016/QH13 (hereinafter referred to as “the LATI 2016”), adopted in April 2016, can possibly enhance the right of ATI in that country. The LATI 2016 was passed with the purpose of providing „for the exercise of the citizens' right of access to information‟1. As such the law is expected to be

In Chapter 1 the reading via religion, with the main emphasis on Buddhism, emphasizes Neo’s role as the One, a sort of savior (Christ or Bodhisattva) figure who ultimately will sacrifice himself to save the freed citizens of Zion, and also his “transcendence” to a higher level of reality, now seen in terms of Buddhist medita

Abstract:
In nineteenth-century New England, Sarah Remond was one of many who distinguished themselves as ardent supporters of freedom and justice as members of the abolitionist movement. Although her name is less familiar, her contributions were most significant. This dissertation examines the role Sarah Remond played in the abolitionist movement. One of a few African-American female lecturers, she made her greatest contributions to the cause in the British Isles. Going beyond moral issues of slavery and immediate emancipation, Remond was also aware of the larger problems affecting all people of color

Don Juan not only includes colorful romances but also reveals women’s desires and sexuality in a positive way. This thesis is a representation of how women become more individualized and sophisticated through their active pursuit of love in Don Juan. Meanwhile, the inherent

Abstract:
This study analyses the state involvement in religious life in modern Indonesia. It will focus on how the state has constructed a variety of policies on religion. At the heart of this issue is a tension between ensuring religious order and harmony on the one hand, and protecting religious freedom on another. Successive Indonesia governments have grappled with problem but have increasingly prioritized order and harmony over the rights of Indonesian citizens. The state role on religion is implicitly justified in the Pancasila (the Five Principles), the Indonesian ideology, which includes the pr

Abstract:
Through this study, I aim to expand the body of knowledge related to Black counter-framing strategies employed in the United States. In this extended case study, I examine the ways in which young Black cis-hetero male creators living in Atlanta, Georgia employ the use of counter-frames to navigate and resist the dominant white racial frame. Specifically, I analyze their use of double consciousness, freedom, and alchemical capitalism as counter-frames as resistance. I advocate for a nuanced approach to examining resistance strategies that includes embracing imperfect and incomplete acts of resi

Abstract:
University of Technology, Sydney. Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences.<br>本文运用新闻自由相关理论,系统研究1978 年以来中国媒体界对新闻自由的理论探索与具体实践。它以新闻自由与专制的博弈为主要切入角度,通过文献研究和案例解剖,分阶段对中国媒体人争取新闻自由的脉络进行发掘和分析,并对历史传统、正反经验、观念变迁、市场影响、网络发展等因素与新闻自由程度的关系进行梳理,展现中国媒体人争取新闻自由高潮与低谷变换,成功与失败交织的复杂轨迹。文章的结论是:中国媒体虽然处在共产党高度控制下,但中国媒体人中一直存在着一条试图脱离党的控制、对新闻自由进行不懈追求的线。这条线代代相传,从未间断,取得了有限但珍贵的成果,为中国新闻自由的最后实现积累了宝贵的经验。 本文的研究成果同时体现在理论和实践两个层面。新闻自由理论可以理解为现代新闻事业的基本原则,它是指导新闻业务的基本思想,媒体履行正常功能的基本前提,受众享有知情权的基本要求。当代中国新闻自由的实践主要体现在两个方面,一方面是制约新闻事业的政治法律框架的演化,另一方面是媒体人在共产党高度新闻控制的条件下争取新闻自由的努力过程。从理论上说,这项研究丰富了中国新闻自由状况等方面的理论研究成果。特别是,本文对新闻自由与媒体控制这两种理念的历史纠结进行辨析,对近代新闻事业传入中
