Since the rise of the tourism industry in Barbados in the 1960s a vast emphasis has been placed on expanding high dollar luxury tourism that is targeted towards specific social and economic classes in order to maintain foreign exchange. The majority of this high dollar tourism development has been predominately concentrated on the diminishing western coastlines of Barbados. Moreover, the focus on
The aim of this study was to determine in what manner a luxury fashion heritage brand can rebrand from the perspective of brand public members. In line with the relativist and social constructivist stance taken in this study, a netnography of posts and belonging comments on the Instagram accounts of this study’s two example companies, Burberry and Gucci, was conducted. A thematic analysis was appl
In August of 2017, Chile lifted its total ban on abortion that had been in effect since 1989. The new abortion laws allow women to access safe and legal abortion in cases of incest, fatal fetal impairment or if pregnancy is threatening the life of the mother. This research will put focus on the process that led to the amendment of the Chilean abortion laws and will primarily strive to enhance the
In the later Middle Ages there was a vivid activity of preaching at the Abbey of Vadstena. Apart from the ordinary Sunday preaching at High Mass, or in connection to it, there were a number of feasts due to the saints. At heart of the medieval pastoral theology was The Way of Salvation and the conundrum was how to make people understand how to correct their living in order to get into Heaven as qu
This work looks at three case studies from bog body research in Denmark, England and Ireland in order to investigate the variation of human decomposition in different depositional environments and the application of forensic methods to the area of bog body research in archaeology. The work attempts to assess the chosen case studies using an established forensic scoring method by Heaton et al (2010
Access to financing for women entrepreneurs plays a fundamental role in the creation and development of their startups. Our study found that women founders, specifically within tech startups, face barriers and challenges when searching for and navigating different types of financing options. There is a gap in the literature regarding gender disparities in entrepreneurial finance and limitations of
Introduction: Side-stream residue, oat okara, from the oat-milk production contains valuable nutrients but possesses a high risk of microbial spoilage. Valorisation of oat okara is therefore important to make sure that the oat beverage production stays sustainable. In this project, High-pressure processing (HPP), heat treatment and Lactobacillus fermentation have been evaluated for their microbial

This thesis is concerned with history within Nick Clegg’s and Nigel Farage’s political discourse during the six months leading up to the 2016 referendum on the United Kingdom’s membership in the European Union. Using Thematic Analysis combined with Klas-Göran Karlsson’s typology of the use of history, Jörn Rüsen’s typology of historical narrative and drawing on the theoretical framework of histori
Anonyma vittnen har under längre tid figurerat i den juridiska sfären som en åtgärd mot gängkriminalitet och tystnadskulturen som ett framväxande fenomen. Som bakgrund gäller en allmän vittnesplikt i Sverige, vilket innebär att gemene man förväntas ställa upp i vittnesmål som ett led i upprätthållandet av vårt rättssamhälle. Vidare innebär EKMRs artikel 6, rätten till rättvis rättegång en begränsnAnonymous witnesses have more recently been a topic for discussion in the legal sphere in Sweden as a measure against gang crime and an emerging phenomenon known as silence culture, referring to an unwillingness to cooperate with law enforcement based on fear of repercussions. Individuals are, regardless of other circumstances, expected to testify as a part of maintaining an overall sense of justi
Att jag intresserar mig för stranden som plats för mitt examensarbete är kanske inte så konstigt. Som vågsurfare har jag tillbringat mycket tid på stranden och ute bland vågorna. Genom surfingen har jag upplevt många olika kuststräckor och vågor på jorden, men just stranden och surfingen i Sverige har fångat mitt intresse. Här är årstidernas förändringar och havets stormar de största utmaningarna,It is not that surprising that I chose the beach as the subject of my thesis. As a surfer, I have spent a lot of time on the beach and among the waves. Through surfing I have experienced a wide variety of coastlines around the world, but the beaches of Sweden have peaked my interest. The changing of the seasons and the ocean´s storms are the biggest challenges here for a surfer, not the size of th
Inom samhällsplanering har den tekniska utvecklingen medfört att digitala modeller kan användas inom planering av städer och samhällen. Mycket arbete och forskning har fokuserat på digitalisering av stadsmodeller, för att skapa så kallade digitala tvillingar. Digitala tvillingar är digitala kopior som kan användas för att planera och simulera åtgärder i till exempel en stad eller stadsdel. Något sThe digitalisation of processes in societal planning has increased the need for a more standardised approach to the visualisation of geographic information. In recent years a lot of progress has been made with regards to digital models of cities and societies. However, this does not apply to underground data and models to the same extent. The overall objective of this report is to identify areas o
In topology optimization, iterative, gradient-based methods are used to find the material distribution of structures which maximizes some objective function, typically the structures' stiffness, or in some cases the fundamental frequency. Finite element analysis is used to compute the structural response in each iteration, leading to large systems of equations. Several hundred iterations may b
Regionalism, that has been always with us in different forms throughout the history and emerged as an alternative theory after the end of Cold War, enables us to explain new world order. Since the end of WWII, there are two types of regionalism explaining the dynamics of regional formations. The one that came into question from the end of WWII till end of Cold War is names as ‘old’ regionalism and
The master thesis was carried out on SSAB in Oxelösund where the international steel company has its main office for cooled steels. SSAB has a world-leading position within steel where abrasion resistance and wearability is crucial. SSAB has earlier developed a computer-based model that is calibrated after real results and can simulate how strains and stresses deploy in the plates when they are ex
The escalating concerns surrounding climate change have intensified the focus on the renewable energy market, with initiatives aimed at energy security, CO2 emissions reduction, and sustainability. Wind turbines, considered a key component of renewable energy solutions, have seen significant investment growth globally. However, challenges persist, including the environmental impact of construction
S urveillance technologies used in the prevention, investigation and pros- ecution of terrorism and other seri- ous crimes are ubiquitous. Howev- er, policymakers are having a hard time weighing the actual security benefit of any surveillance technology against the potential fi- nancial cost, moral hazard, or resulting intrusion into privacy and other fundamental rights. How can a state protect it
