The tradeoff between risk and return is a topic that most investors consider carefully before an investment decision is made. Markowitz’s pioneer work on portfolio selection using the mean-variance framework has entailed a great extent of research in this field. One research is the Sharpe ratio, which is a measure of a financial performance using variance as a risk measure. The shortcoming of vari

The study centers on the work of various filmmakers that made science fiction films in the countries of the Soviet Union, the Weimar Germany and the United States of America during the interwar years.

Recurring themes in these movies are of such nature as space exploration and alien encounters as well as depiction of futur

This qualitative study focus on the transfer of knowledge between the university and workplace, what the student brings from the education that is useful in the career. The gathered information consists of six depth interviews and the guidelines that social workers have to follow. We approach the area by looking into three different subjects – policies, discretion and education. To analyze the dat

This analysis explores the seemingly paradoxical and fairly common phenomenon occurring in films where underachieving slacker characters are portrayed as good role-models giving advice to ambitious protagonists aspiring success. By juxtaposing 15 diverse films in which a slacker helps the protagonist, observations of similarities and explications concludes this investigation to four categories con

The thesis investigates the Danish approach to sexual rights in development through the national development agency’s (DANIDA) strategy for sexual and reproductive rights (SRHR) and a small side project sponsored by Danida on LGBT rights in the global south. In doing so, the thesis utilizes post-colonial and post-structural perspectives of among others Chantal Mouffe and Homi K. Bhabha to investig

Many places in Sweden contain contaminated soils which came to existence after the industrialization. Since we lack knowledge about where there are contaminants and what they are composed of the work to examine and chart up hazards is important. The purpose of this degree project has been to perform risk assessments on whether or not any contaminations are present in the soil at six properties in

Chemicals exist ubiquitously around us in the food we eat, in the clothes we wear and in the buildings where we live. Due to the input of chemicals in building materials, the materials constitute a risk and can damage human health and the environment. A non-toxic environment is one of three prioritized areas in the environmental work in Norrköping municipality. The overall ambition is to reduce us

In Sweden 16 national goals have been elaborated to aim for an environmentally sustainable society. These goals should not only be implemented at a national level but also at the regional and community level. In Lund 13 documents have been developed, for 13 of the 16 national goals describing the environmental state in Lund associated to the goal in question. These documents will lead to local env

The Genuine Progress Indicator (GPI) is a tool for measuring the wellbeing of an economy. The question of how to include the use of renewable energy sources is important when estimating the GPI for an economy highly dependent on renewable energy like Iceland. An analysis of GPI estimations showed that the use of renewable energy sources is reflected by the subtraction of the use of non-renewable o

Användning av sociala medier har ökat explosionsartat bland privata internetanvändare de senaste åren. Allt fler företag bestämmer sig för att ansluta till de olika sociala nätverken, med eller utan en tydlig strategi.

Our purpose is to examine to which extent the practice of “twinning” - exchange projects between equivalent or similar government agencies in different countries - can lead to institutional development. We have interviewed five Swedish a

Är det möjligt att påverka människors moral genom att be dem uppmärksamma en situation i sin helhet eller i detalj? Med utgångspunkt i Construal Level Theory och GLOMOsys utfördes en undersökning på 113 studenter vid Lunds universitet och Malmö Högskola. Efter en abstraktionsmanipulation, en så kallad Navon task, ombads deltagarna skatta scenarier där personer begår moraliskt tvivelaktiga handling
