Genom att studera några av Sveriges just nu största intresseorganisationer och forskarnätverk för främjande av samhällsentreprenörskap, vill författarna skapa en nulägesanalys av området i Sverige - samt utmaningar att beakta för områdets framtida utveckling. Då uppsatsen har ett beskrivande syfte kring ett ämne som till vissa delar är outforskat i en svensk kontext, har en kombination av deskripThrough the study of some of Sweden´s at present largest associations and networks for the support of social entrepreneurship, the authors seek to establish a situation analysis over the Swedish field – as well as challenges to be considered for the future development of the field. While this paper aims at a descriptive purpose on a partly unexplored topic in a Swedish context, a combination of a

The endemic mesosaurid reptiles of the Whitehill-Irati sea in southern Africa and South America during the Permian were studied with preference for the Namibian material. To date three valid mesosaurid species have been described of which two occur on both continents. These mesosaurid aquatic reptiles were among the first evidence used to support the theory of continental drift at the beginning of

A recurring theme in debates on European Union politics is the lack of enthusiasm and involvement of European citizens in the decision-making and legislative procedures, which may appear complex and impermeable. While some scholars deny the existence of a democratic deficit, others fear that continued failure to bridge the gap between the political elite and the constituents will lead to an ever-d

Climate change has emerged as the most prominent of the global environment issues and there is a need to evaluate its impact on the agriculture. General Circulation Models (GCMs) which are considered as the most advance tools for estimating future climate change scenarios operate on coarse resolutions. It is for this reason the climate change model MAGICC coupled to SCENGEN developed by the IPCC w

The aims of the present study were to implement and evaluate a three-session Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) stress management intervention in a non-clinical group of university students (N = 25) and to investigate the importance of practice in an ACT-intervention. A design with pre-test and double post-test was chosen. A comparison was made between a nine-hour ACT-intervention containing

The primary focus of this Master thesis is to study how industrial house building can be implemented during production of rental flats under the terms of public procurement. In order to determine a suitable working process as well as presenting a possible architectonic result of the process, a case study is carried through. A housing projekt is designed on a site i Malmö, where the commisioner is

The European Union (EU) and the United States (US) often use different foreign policy strategies. In their non-proliferation policies they have had somewhat different approaches towards the suspected proliferators. In this thesis the usefulness and effectiveness of these different strategies, containment and engagement, are studied within the question of non-proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destr

The study tries to look at the impact of microfinance on the lives of the extreme poor people. There are different views on microcredit/microfinance as a powerful development tool regarding its success in developing the lives of the extreme poor and sometimes these views are contradictory. The purpose of the study was to observe the social and financial changes that have occurred also with an effo

Get married is the rite of passage that coincides with exit from the parental household, solemnizing the establishment of a new household and commitment to a sexual partner (Allan, G. et al, 2003:135), which is a ubiquitous phenomenon across human society. Almost all adult men and women seek to marry or form a permanent stable relationship with another person for the sake of bear children and rais

In order to create a succesfull radical right populist movement and thus a succesfull radical right populist party, three elements are needed; ?demand?, ?supply? amd ?mobilisation?.

This study is about how eurhythmic teachers create a comfortable and educational environment in their classrooms. In other words how they create a healthy working environment. Four teachers were chosen for the study, one of them male. I?ve used qualitative interviews because I believe it's the best method to collect information that illustrates what a teacher's working situation looks like

Definition: The Mbuluzi River runs through Swaziland and Mozambique into the Indian Ocean. Due to water shortage, population increase and growing industrial and agricultural sectors, high stress is being put on the water quality. The importance of keeping good water quality is accentuated by the fact that the River is shared between two countries and that it supports both capitals with drinking wa

Abstract One aim of this thesis, has been to explore how discursive frames are constructed, frames to relate to, compare with, and therefore be part in shaping political subjects. The other aim has been connected with a more empirical platform, where I wanted to discover how these frames are established and structured discursively within a political organization, among its members; in this case w
