Politics should be constituted by social representativeness in order to be conceptualised as democratic and legitimate. The set of politicians ought to be diverse and heterogeneous with the aim to include a wide spectrum of interest and concerns. The debate about women lacking power in politics was raised in the seventies. The political parties acted in response to the debate by implementing diffe

Titel: Bortglömda förebilder - en kvalitativ undersökning om jämställdhet i musikhistorieundervisning Författare: Anna Edström Detta examensarbete är en kvalitativ studie, baserad på intervjuer med fyra musiklärare som arbetar i olika delar av utbildningssystemet, och som alla undervisar i musikhistoria på olika sätt. Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka hur lärare ser på sin roll som förmedlare a

Innovation is gospel today. This also means a surge in popularity for the agents behind innovation; innovators. But who are they, exactly? Anecdotal evidence from both recent times and historical settings tend to emphasize remarkable individuals, who more or less alone created amazing things. By utilizing the SWINNO-database of innovations, this thesis examines how empirically prevalent the narrat

Uppsatsen är en diskursanalytisk studie av hur den indiske författaren Rabindranath Tagore blev skildrad i svensk tidningspress 1913 då han fick nobelpriset i litteratur och 1921 då han besökte Sverige för att retroaktivt ta emot sitt pris. Utöver analysen av tidningarnas skildringar har ambitionen även varit att problematisera Edward Saids teorier om orientalism.

With the use of arms trade data spanning the time period between 1992 and 2010, this thesis sets out to study what influence joining NATO has on a country’s volume of arms export and its probability of exporting arms. An assessment is also made of how NATO members trade arms. The data is estimated with a set of different gravity models and by using linear regressions evaluating volume and logistic

The work presented in this thesis is focused on the development of the new concept to describe isothermal moisture transport using Kirchhoff potentials. The first four papers deal with moisture transport in porous media using Kirchhoff potentials. The last three papers deal with wood. Here the theory is extended to the case of anisotropic moisture transport. The seven papers have the following con
