Aid, Development and Power: Perceptions and Relations in the Gulu Development Community

International development aid is big business. A flow of funds reaches the Global South each year, creating aid clusters with concentrated implementing development organizations. This study looks closer at development in practice in one of these aid hubs, studying the relations between the development community of Gulu, Northern Uganda, and its clients. In focus are power relations between the org

Bloggen som konsumtionsfrämjande medel - En diskursanalys av konsumtionsideal i modebloggar

Sammanfattning Denna uppsats behandlar fenomenet modebloggar och konsumtionskulturen i dagens samhälle. De tre modebloggar som denna studie behandlar är bland de mest populära bloggarna i Sverige idag och personerna bakom bloggarna har kommit att bli en slags kändisar och opinionsbildare inom området för livsstil, mode och skönhet. Anledningen till varför just dessa tre bloggar har valts som empir

Holland Mellanhand Jämtland

Svenska forskare har på senare år gjort allt fler studier kring turistbranschens specifika problem, dock finns det inte mycket forskning kring formerna för ett samarbete.Syftet är att utifrån partnerskapet Swedish Åre Östersund undersöka hur en nationell marknadsföringsorganisation inom turistnäringen kan påverka och bidra till destinationsutvecklingen på lokal och regional nivå. Studien bygger på

WALK! Framing a successful agrarian reform campaign in the Philippines.

Agrarian reform is a long standing issue in the Philippines and has seen a number of peasant uprisings, revolts and rebellions ever since colonial times. In the wake of the Marcos era, the new constitution came with new promises of agrarian reform and set up the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) to implement (re-)distribution of lands. However, efficient implementation is held back by p

Sex till salu? En kvalitativ studie av reklamannonser ur svenska Elle

”Sex till salu?” är skriven av Hanna Engström, student vid enheten för medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap i Lund. I denna uppsats analyseras framställningen av kvinnor i reklamannonser ur modemagasinet Elle. Uppsatsen undersöker huruvida stereotypa framställningar av kvinnan och sexualitet förekommer i det empiriska materialet. Arbetet genomförs med hjälp av textanalys som är en kvalitativ metod.

Från monolog till dialog – en fallstudie om vilken betydelse sociala medier kan ha för intern marknadsföring

Intern marknadsföring blir allt mer betydande i företag, inte minst på grund av allt mer komplexa företagsstrukturer. Trots det verkar det inte finnas ett effektivt verktyg som underlättar företags strategiska användning av intern marknadsföring. Syftet med fallstudien var att öka förståelsen för vad flervägskommunikation via sociala medier kan bidra med i den interna marknadsföringen. Författarna

Kapitalbeskattning på olika villkor

Ur svenskt perspektiv analyserar uppsatsen om det finns en direkt korrelation mellan staters differentierade skattesats på kapitalavkastning och globala företags placering av huvudkontor. Den centrala frågeställningen lyder: Är den Svenska, relativt höga, beskattningen på kapitalavkastning en direkt fara för att företag väljer att omlokalisera sitt huvudkontor till länder med låg ägarbeskattning?

Kvinnor i styrelsen och deras inverkan på avkastningen

ABSTRACT In this paper we set out to investigate whether the number of women in the boardroom has an impact on stock revenue. Female representation has long been absent in corporate boardrooms and even though this has changed recently, women are still widely underrepresented. Other studies have investigated the differences between men and women and their style on governance and leadership. If such

Är din eller min nytta störst? – problemet med interpersonella nyttojämförelser

To develop a meaningful allocation policy as the basis for economic welfare, it’s necessary to make some kind of comparison of the utility different people get with the various options that are available. If you put the greatest emphasis on raising the overall benefit of society, or seek to maximize other ideals such as liberty, equality and justice, the allocation will be different. I have in thi

Finite-Element Based Shape-Optimization of Electric Motors

By introducing spectral or polynomial functions to perturb the shape of the rotor in an electrical machine that was previously optimized by conventional means, it was shown that performance parameters can be further improved, in some cases significantly. This was accomplished by developing and applying an optimization method designed for use with a commercial finite element simulation software (Ma

Wireless Control via Bluetooth

A personal transporter is under development at LTH, Industrial Electrical Engineering and Automation, IEA. A wireless link is desired to develop control remotely for the transporter. The development of the control becomes easier without wires and if the transporter can move freely within the range of the link. A link is built, using Bluetooth devices and a microprocessor from Microchip. This link

Lighting Control: Possibilities in Cost and Energy-Efficient Lighting Control Techniques

In a modern society there is a constant increase in electrical use but at the same time the environmental awareness among consumers is rising. This master theses aims at investigating the possibilities in cost and energy efficient lighting control techniques. This master thesis is written for the Measurement Technology and Industrial Electrical Engineering division, IEA, within the Faculty of Engi

Automated shifting of a manual sequential transmission in a hybrid vehicle

The increasing environmental awareness in today’s society has created a demand for vehicles with less environmental impact. One way to meet the resulting need is to construct hybrid vehicles, hybrid operation which involves a combination of different energy conversion- and storage principles. This project deals with just such a hybrid solution, a parallel hybrid. To construct a competitive solutio

Detecting Perforations in a Continuous Converted Plastic File Line

The project was performed for FAS Converting Machinery AB (FAS) in Ystad with supervision from Industriell Elektroteknik och Automation at LTH. FAS is a company that makes machines for producing plastic bags on a roll. The problem given was to develop a sensor for detecting the perforations in the bags to ensure that the correct amount of bags was rolled up and that the tearing was in the right pl

Automatik för avstämning av Petersenspole

The forceful storms and the stricter regulations from the government within the last years have forced E.ON to start a project called “Krafttag”. The goal of the project is to ensure uninterrupted power supply to the customers by investing in underground cables. A problem with the underground cables is the high natural capacitance that contributes to an enlarged current in the case of an earth fau

A Concept Proposal of a New Generation Operator Panels

This project was done for the company Beijer Electronics Products AB and the task was given by the hardware development department of the company. The project was about developing a concept proposal for a new generation operator panels. This was done to inspire the product developers at Beijer Electronics with innovative ideas before the actual operator panel development. More in detail the object

"You Have to Learn How They Tick" - A Qualitative Thesis about Payment Behaviour, Trust and Corporate Reputation

I want to find out whether it is possible to draw any connection between payment behaviour and corporate reputation on a business-to-business level or whether it is rather trust that is effected and if so in both cases how and why. My qualitative research has an inductive approach and has been done by using an unstructured interview technique. I have used Chun’s definition of corporate reputation
