Although the Cold War was thought to be a part of history, Russia has in recent years increased their military capacity and activity which is interpreted by the West as a threat which needs to be addressed. This study aims to present how Sweden has changed its view regarding Russia with time and also to explain why this change has occurred. Although Russia may be constituting a larger threat now t

Currently, the consumer decision-making is influenced by an increase of technological adoption, called multi-channel retailing, which can be defined as a retailer using a combination of integrated channels for promoting and selling products and services. Since there is a lack of knowledge about how the consumer decision-making in this context looks like, the purpose of the study is to redress the

Varje år dör omkring tretton kvinnor i Sverige till följd av våld av en man som de har eller har haft en nära relation med. Ofta kulminerar våldet vid en separation eller skilsmässa. Det kan därför innebära en högre risk för dödligt våld under separationsfasen. Den drivande kraften bakom våldet är vanligtvis svartsjuka och kontroll från mannen, vilket han känner en förlust av vid tillfället då kviEvery year about thirteen women die in Sweden because of the violence of a man they have or have had a close relationship with. Often the violence culminates in a separation or divorce. Therefore, it may involve a higher risk of fatal violence during the separation phase. The driving force behind the violence is usually jealous and control from the man, which he knows a loss at the moment when the

I Sverige finns ingen författningsreglerad minimilön eller möjlighet att göra kollektivavtal allmängiltiga. Istället är det arbetsmarknadens parter som tillsammans förhandlar fram kollektivavtalets innehåll om löner och andra anställningsvillkor. Den svenska arbetsrätten har en tradition av långtgående fackligt inflytande och avsaknad av statlig inblandning. Staten har uttryckt att författningsregIn Sweden, there is an absence of a minimum wage legislation. The terms and conditions for most workers is constituted in the collective agreement, made by the parties of the Swedish labour market. The government has expressed itself unable to legislate in the matter as it would mean a violation to the “Swedish labour model”, keeping its neutral policy intact. The collective agreement has a very s

Kommer du ihåg när du berättade någonting för någon sist? Berättade du av en speciell anledning? Berättade du för en särskild person under särskilda förhållanden? Varför berättade du i så fall för just den personen på just den platsen? Varför berättade du inte för någon annan någon annanstans? Men den kanske viktigaste frågan – hur gjorde du när du berättade och varför gjorde du just så? ÅterberäThis thesis seeks a sociological explanation of how and why thirteen interviewees told and constructed the telling of their dreams, anecdotes and secrets. Using Erving Coffman’s theories about impression management, this thesis was able to show how the interviewees prepared their telling of dreams, anecdotes and secrets via post hoc circumstances. I.e. to make their telling more socially appropria

Det finns ett behov av en helhetssyn på risksituationen i samhället för att långsiktig hållbarhet ska kunna skapas. Översiktsplanen är det första steget i den fysiska planeringen och behandlar hela kommunens geografiska område. Således är det också det första steget där riskhänsyn kan tas. Målet med detta examensarbete har därför varit att studera hur risk- och sårbarhetsfrågor beaktas i den kommuThere is a need for a more holistic perspective on societal risks in order to achieve sustainability in a long-term perspective. The municipal comprehensive plan is the first step in urban planning, and covers all of the municipal’s geographical area. Consequently, it is also the first step where a risk assessment can be conducted. The objective of this report has therefore been to study how risk

The thesis analyses the EU arms embargo on China and the reasons why this sanction is in place since 1989. The arms embargo case characterizes the EU-China foreign relations also in general and in order to understand the real background behind this case, historical institutionalist perspective and path dependence theory is used. The thesis acknowledges two different paradigms – normative power and

This is a study of uncertainty in the corporate setting from the perspective of individual employees. While some interviewees talk about accepting uncertainty as an unavoidable state, others tell stories of dread and anguish, associated with instability in the work environment. This research shows how uncertainty as a stress inducing factor can affect both productivity and employee wellbeing, by r

This study is centred around Fridays for Future, a youth movement which has rippled across the world from its first sparks in the fall of 2018 to the spring of 2019, and has given rise to countless pieces about the movement in both traditional and social media. According to critical discourse theory, the discourses that we read in the media both affect us and how we see things, but the context in

Travel on railway in Sweden has increased steadily over the past three decades and there are today twice as many passengers travelling by train as there were 30 years ago. The increasing awareness of environmental issues with other methods of transportation is likely to favour railway travel, and so the number of passengers is expected to continue to rise. As the number of passengers increase, so

Denna uppsats handlar om den delen av kvinnorörelsens historia där kvinnors rätt till högre statstjänster berörs. I takt med industrialiseringen förändrades det svenska samhället och medförde att kvinnor tog plats på arbetsmarknaden på ett helt annat sätt än tidigare. Sedan mitten av 1800-talet var kvinnor aktiva på den statliga arbetsmarknaden och fick tillträde till universitetsstudier i början This essay is about the part of the history of the women's movement where women's right to higher civil service is affected. In time as the industrialization happened, Swedish society changed which resulted in that women took their place in the labor market in a completely different way than before. Since the middle of the 19th century, women were active in the state labor market and gaine

For individuals with gender dysphoria, voice therapy can be an important tool to change characteristics about their voice to align better with their gender identity. This is often done by practising with a speech therapist and can be a long and difficult process. A useful tool in this setting would be software that can generate a voice, based on the patients voice, which lies slightly closer to th

Restrictions in the distribution of interventions by the public elderly care have resulted in an increase in care for relatives. Those who have increased their relative care are primarily women, especially women from the working class and women who provide care to a relative who was born outside the Nordic countries. The purpose of this study was to investigate young female second-generation Swede

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate how employees understand and support their employer’s internal CSR agenda and communication. In order to do this, we answer three research questions: How can employees be segmented into different groups regarding CSR support? How do employees who are supportive of a company’s CSR agenda differ from less supportive employees? How can an understan

Införandet av en så kallad samtyckeslag har varit kraftigt omdebatterat i över två decenniers tid. Den 1 juli 2018 infördes en våldtäktsbestämmelse som baseras på frivillighet. I och med detta utvidgades våldtäktsbestämmelsen på så sätt att det inte längre fordras tvång eller utnyttjande av en särskilt utsatt situation för att straffansvar ska aktualiseras. Syftet med den nya våldtäktsbe-stämmelseThe adoption of a so-called consent-based rape law has been heavily debated for over two decades. On July 1st, 2018 a rape clause based on voluntarism was introduced. As a result, the rape regulation was extended in such a way that it no longer requires force, or exploitation of a particular vulnerable situa-tion, for criminal liability to occur. The purpose of the new rape regulation is to protec

In Germany, country of diesel bans and postponed climate goals, the region of Baden-Württemberg, as the heart of the country’s car industry, faces especial challenges. Due to its highly car-oriented transport system and topographical structure, the region is notorious for some of the country’s worst air quality levels. In response to these issues, the regional government formulated a cycling strat

Vi i Sverige är duktiga på att återvinna, men man kan ibland fråga sig om återvinning verkligen är det bästa sättet att hantera produkter som man inte längre använder. När det gäller elektroniska produkter så som mobiltelefoner, datorer och surfplattor kan både resurser och pengar sparas genom att återanvända istället för att återvinna. Studien du nu ska läsa är en undersökning om hur skånska koInformation and Communications Technology (ICT) is something that drives our society forward, but how we are consuming these products is rather something that harm our environment rather than pushing our society forward. This thesis investigates our unstainable consumption of ICT products and takes a look at waste prevention solutions in order to reach circular economy with a focus on Swedish muni

Racial profiling is something that has been occurring in different contexts and countries for decades. When discussing the topic, it usually refers to the police authority conducting direct or indirect racial profiling of individuals who seem suspicious or that have foreign appearance compared to the native population. My focus is specifically on the recent debate of potential racial profiling by

This is the report of a thesis work about controlling an autonomous wheel loader. The objective of the work was to create a complete prototype of an autonomous wheel loader that can operate without any seated driver and without any kind of remote controlling. Another important objective was that this prototype needs to support future development of the autonomous wheel loader. The work was complet
