Unravelling the home is an anecdotal mapping of the house and the objects within it to seek a deeper understanding of what a home is constructed of. Through prints, photographs, observations, interviews and drawings, the house is slowly unravelled to visualise the material and the immaterial components, including the norms and narratives, that makes it a home. The notion of the home as a physical
Denna uppsats baseras på en jämförande undersökning av två av fyra befintliga svenska översättningar av den amerikanske författaren F. Scott Fitzgeralds roman The Great Gatsby från 1925. Med en kvalitativ metod som bygger på näranalys av textutdrag ur romanen och de båda översättningarna jämförs de med varandra för att utröna vilken som kan anses mera källtexttrogen. De aspekter som särskilt stude
This thesis takes on the distribution of influence at the local level of the Church of Sweden from a legitimacy theory perspective. It is argued that the high levels of member resignation could be viewed as a manifested lack of confidence due to the failing legitimacy of the Church of Sweden.

Denna undersökning har med hjälpt av investeringsstrategin Dogs of the Dow testat om det går att uppnå en riskjusterad överavkastning på Storbritanniens aktiemarknad under perioden 2002–2017.

Den här uppsatsen behandlar frågan om det finns en rätt för stater att ta till extraterritoriellt våld mot icke-statliga aktörer, och om så ja, under vilka förutsättningar. Omvärldens intresse för frågan växte sig starkt i och med terroristattackerna mot USA den 11 september 2001. För att försöka besvara frågan tittar jag på FN-stadgan och den internationella sedvanerätten. FN-stadgan innehållerThis essay addresses the issue of states extraterritorial use of force against non-state actors. If concluded that such a right exists, the essay will continue to examine under which conditions. Since 9/11 states have been eager to adress the issue of wether they are allowed to use force against non-state actors, who act from another state’s territory. To be able to answer this question I have loo

Background: In most resource poor countries, particularly sub-Saharan Africa, modern contraceptive use and prevalence is unusually low and fertility is very high resulting in rapid population growth and high maternal mortality and morbidity. Current evidence shows slow progress in expanding the use of contraceptives by women of low socioeconomic status and insufficient financial commitment to fami
We study some properties of random walks perturbed at extrema, which are generalizations of the walks considered, e.g., by Davis (1999) and Tth (1996). This process can also be viewed as a version of an excited random walk, recently studied by many authors. We obtain several properties related to the range of the process with infinite memory and prove the strong law, the central limit theorem, and
In recent years, the Arctic has attracted focus, news media and authorities have made it clear that tensions in security policies have increased. To gain a further understanding of how Sweden (as a state) relates to the Arctic region, this study examines official sources using narrative analysis through the lens of securitization theory. This study examines how Swedish official threat narratives a
Although landscape representations in the US-European culture have traditionally been acknowledged as a peaceful ordering of the world or the tool of imperialism, nationalism and private property (sometimes all simultaneously), a new shift in the landscape scopic regime seems to be happening. Produced by the current rise of concerns around climate change and environmental crisis, this shift seems

Hur kan ett nytt konstmuseum i Amiralsstaden bli en generator för stadens framtida utveckling? Mitt intresse att angripa denna fråga har uppstått i ett debattklimat där inblandade aktörer argumenterar för sina respektive ståndpunkter i lokaliseringsfrågan, men där avsaknad av konkreta visioner gjort att diskussionen nått en återvändsgränd. Med detta examensarbete vill jag med hjälp de verktyg och How can a new art museum in Amiralsstaden become a generator for city development? My interest in tackling this issue begun in a debate where stakeholders argue for their respective positions on the issue of location, but where the lack of concrete visions has led to the discussion reaching a dead end. In this thesis, I intend to utilize the tools and processes developed during my studies to make
