Se huset är ett examensarbete i arkitektur där husägandet ses och presenteras om ett förvaltarskap. Ett omhändertagande. Med utgångspunkt från den svenska 60-talsvillans karaktär och tillblivelse utifrån en social och politisk kontext, lyfts uppkomst och konsekvenser av rådande attityd gentemot denna kategori av bostadshus. Undersökningen har styrts av frågor kring värden och bevarande länkat tilSe huset - See the house is a thesis presenting the ownership of the single-family house as a type of stewardship. An entrusted care. As a point of departure I have taken the Swedish villa from the 60s, with its characteristics and the social and political context of its development, and looked into the consequences of attitudes towards this category of housing. My inquiry is led by questions of

Background: The shift from product based to service oriented economies has transformed business strategies, particularily in B2B contexts, where value creation increasingly relies on integrated service offerings. Digitalization, especially through cloud based infrastructure models such as CPaaS, has accelerated this transition, by enabling scalable real time solutions. As a result, companies face

Digitala FAQ-guider har blivit en central del av organisationers kundkommunikation. Kunder förväntas i allt större utsträckning lösa problem och navigera information självständigt utan direkt mänsklig interaktion. Tidigare forskning har främst förstått FAQ som tekniska informationssystem och självbetjäningslösningar, medan deras kommunikativa och strategiska dimensioner har fått begränsad vetenska

On Rednote, a social media platform for lifestyle and interests in China, users often describe some public comment sections as having 活人感 (huó rén gǎn, liveliness), a feeling that someone has personally invested effort and left perceivable traces in what is said. Voice comments have become a visible component of this interactional environment. I explored how asynchronous voice comments are used in

This is a master’s thesis about reading promotion. The purpose of this study is to examine and increase knowledge about reading promotion in a school context. The example used is the project “Free Reading”, implemented by third year students at a high school in southern Sweden. “Free Reading” requires the students to read for 15 minutes at the start of every English lesson, in a book of their own

The focus of this thesis is to examine how the civic identity of the second-generation migrants in Italy is constructed through media representations of migration, citizenship, and national belonging. Previous studies focused on migrants’ integration, which was based on their socio-economic situation, mobility, and assimilation process. I argue that these approaches are insufficient to explain how

Despite its rapid growth within sustainable finance, ESG has faced criticism for functioning primarily as a risk management tool, failing to capture holistic conceptions of value beyond those that are financially material. This paper explores the Holistic Value Addition (HVA) framework as an alternative to ESG in Australia, paying attention to First Nations perspectives and intergenerational respo

Efforts to criminalize ecocide have gained renewed political momentum amid escalating environmental crisis. A key development in this context is the 2024 reform of the Belgian Penal Code, which introduced the crime of ecocide in Article 94. This thesis examines the legal and political process leading to this reform through key informant interviews and library research. It identifies key moments du

In recent years, the Chinese city of Dali has been intensely romanticised on digital platforms such as Rednote (Xiaohongshu) as a flawless sanctuary of slow living. This digital utopification emerges as a collective response to systemic urban hypercompetition and burnout. Rather than verifying the empirical truth of this destination image, this thesis investigates what utopification actively achie

Ensamagerande våldsaktörer utgör idag det primära attentatshotet mot människor i Sverige, vilket aktualiserar frågan om vilka analytiska ramverk som bäst lämpar sig för att förstå dessa aktörer. Denna studie tillämpar en competing theories-ansats inom ramen för kongruensanalys genom att jämföra det moderna riskbedömingsinstrumentet TRAP-18 med den traditionella analytiska ansatsen, skapad av Russe

The market for ready-to-drink protein beverages has expanded alongside growing interest in health, convenience, and active aging. However, many products in this category appear to target younger, fitness-oriented consumers, while adults aged 65 and older remain less visible as a distinct consumer segment. Drawing on a qualitative methodology, this thesis examines how older adults in the United St

This thesis examines how archivists perceive different archival spaces, with an emphasis on physical and digital archives. The study is based on four semi-structured interviews with Swedish archivists who all work in public archives. A key aim of the research has been to let the informants reflect on how the various archival environments make them feel – and which of the senses they invoke – rathe

The task of matching fixed-order event generation with the parton shower is physically non-trivial and closely related to an efficiency bottleneck of event generators. In this thesis, we examine and implement two novel matching schemes in KrkNLO and MAcNLOPS for the LHC process p p > Z Z. As both schemes generate positive-definite event samples, they can be interesting alternatives to MC@NLO. The

Economics education continues to reproduce an economics paradigm divorced from the material reality of climate change and environmental degradation. This thesis investigated the inclusion of ecological economics as an alternative paradigm in the Czech undergraduate economics curricula by employing a mixed methods approach. The content analysis revealed that the chosen programmes do not integrate e

Food can be transformed into data, but it is never only data. This thesis takes the Chinese health and weight management app Boohee as a case study to examine the tension behind its dietary tracking functionality. Rather than evaluating Boohee’ s effectiveness as a health technology, this study frames it as a digital media environment that enables users to record, compare, and self-evaluate dietar

Fotografiskt material är något av det mest känsliga material som bevaras vid arkivinstitutioner, inklusive kommunarkiv. Trots detta finns det en övergripande brist på resurser, översyn och ansvar när det gäller bevarandet av detta material i Sverige. Syftet med denna uppsats är att bidra med kunskap om hur analogt fotografiskt material bevaras vid mindre kommunarkiv i Skåne. Detta syfte undersöks

In the dual pursuit of expanding non-fossil fuel electricity capacity and becoming a ‘developed’ nation, India’s development trajectory drives the rapid expansion of large-scale solar photovoltaics (PV). In Jaisalmer, however, this expansion encounters complex socio-ecological landscapes marked by questions of (in)justice and uneven development. Drawing on energy geographies and energy justice, th

Sweden’s drained peatlands produce around one-fifth of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions, and although rewetting is widely recognised as an important mitigation measure, progress has remained slow. This thesis characterises Sweden’s drained peatlands as a multi-level socio-ecological-technical system (ML-SETS) and analyses why the drainage-based regime persists. Using a mixed-methods design g

Purpose: The persistent congestion and prolonged waiting times of trucks at maritime container terminals undermine port performance and supply chain efficiency. Ensuring smooth truck flows is essential for ports to fulfill their economic and social roles in global trade, creating significant pressure on operators to deliver reliable service. To support these efforts, it is crucial to identify

In the early 20th century, researchers from folklore archives travelled across Sweden to collect stories from rural communities and peasant society, as this culture was widely believed to be disappearing as more people moved to urban areas. These stories became part of collections that are now documented as part of Swedish cultural heritage. In the 1970s, however, these collections were criticised
