Viktig statlig institution eller "mensmyndighet"? En diskursanalys av debatten om Jämställdhetsmyndigheten

The following thesis discusses a recent debate that occurred in Sweden regarding gender equality. In the beginning of 2018, a new agency was founded - The Swedish Gender Equality Agency. However, less than a year later, the agency was threatened to be shut-down when two right-wing parties proposed a budget where the funding for the agency was retracted. This started an interesting debate in Sweden

Modelling cross-laminated timber floors in dynamic analysis - Eigenfrequency prediction

I slutet av 90-talet utvecklades produkten korslimmat trä, KL-trä. Framtagningen av KL-trä var ett projekt för att framställa ett byggnadsmaterial med avseende att kunna konkurrera med betongindustrin och därigenom bidra till en lägre miljöpåverkan, då trä har en låg påverkan på miljön i förhållande till många andra konstruktionsmaterial. KL-träelement är vanligtvis konstruerade som plattor och haIn the late 1990s cross-laminated timber (CLT) was developed. The development of CLT was a project aimed to produce a structural product that could compete with the concrete industry and contribute to a reduced effect on the environment, due to the low environmental impact of timber in relation to other building materials. CLT elements are usually constructed as panels which contain multiple layer

Natural Disasters and Income Inequality - A case study of the state Oaxaca in Mexico

Among the most discussed risks of climate change is its impact on the occurrence of natural disasters. Manifold research points towards the social and economic consequences that follow for affected regions in the world. Especially for developing and emerging countries, natural disasters impose a threat endangering the path of sustainable development. This study investigates the impact of natural d

Klimatpåverkansbedömning av energieffektiva lösningar för byggnader - Jämförelse av klimatpåverkan från olika isoleringsmaterial och energisystem

Dagens samhälle står inför en stor klimatutmaning vilket ställer höga krav på alla branscher, inte minst bygg- och fastighetsbranschen. Byggnader och lokaler står idag för en tredjedel av Sveriges energianvändningen där 60 % går till uppvärmning. För att minska utsläppen från bostäder och lokaler har stort fokus lagts på byggnaders energianvändning under dess driftsfas. I takt med att byggnader blThe society is today facing a major climate challenge, which places high demands on all industries, not least the construction and real estate industry. Buildings are today accounting for one third of Sweden's energy use, of which 60 % is used for heating. In order to reduce emissions from buildings, great focus has been placed on the energy use of buildings during its operating phase. As buil

State Terrorism in practice: The Guatemalan coup d’état in 1954

This thesis challenges the idea that terrorism is only used by non-state actors. I argue states can and have used terrorism on multiple occasions because terrorism is simply a strategy of violence and can thus be used by anyone. Terrorisms most important feature is therefore not who the actor is, but what the aim of the violence is meant to accomplish. Terrorism is used to alter the behaviour of a

Growth of Solar Jobs in India: A Reality Check - Examining the nuances of growth of solar power jobs in India and comparing their nature to coal jobs

India is the third largest emitter of greenhouse gases in the world, despite having low per capita emissions. A large quantity of these emissions stem from its fossil-fuel reliant energy sector. Renewable energy sources (RES) like solar and wind power show promise in helping the country transition to cleaner forms of energy generation. India currently has ambitious plans of installing 175 GW of en

Do You Swear to Tell the Whole Truths? Tunisia and the Truth and Dignity Commission.

Tunisia is where all hope and rebellion started. After the self-immolation of Mohamed Bouazizi in 2010, the Jasmine Revolution spread to other Arab countries leading to the famous Arab Spring. Tunisia is depicted as the model of democratic transition in the Arab region and in the West. Transitional justice mechanisms have been implemented in the country, notably a Truth and Dignity Commission aimi

Resisting and Repoliticizing REDD+ A single case study of how Indigenous Peoples attempt to repoliticize REDD+ in the Brazilian state of Acre

In light of alarming reports on devastating effects of deforestation, the UNFCCC initiated in 2005 REDD+; a climate scheme designed to halt deforestation and mitigate emissions from forest degradation. Despite being met with enthusiastic approval at top level, the scheme has been met with resistance by local forest community groups. Displaying the core characteristics of a depoliticized policy iss

Let’s march, Belarusians! : a case study on ”March on, Babe!” movement against domestic violence in Belarus

5 October 2018, President Aliaksandr Lukashenka lashed out against a draft bill of the Law Against Domestic Violence. That very same day activists Svetlana Gatalskaya and Marysha Korzh created a Facebook page called “March On, Baby” to push for the rejected bill. After 48 hours, about 1700 both female and male Belarusians joined it. This thesis uses “March on, Baby” movement as a case study to lo

Through the eyes of the 'Other' : Greenlanders' experiences in mediated spaces and places

Greenlanders in Denmark are often overlooked in the spheres of the Danish society. One stereotypical image of the Greenlander has become ingrained to be almost commonsensical in its use in the Danish language and media. That is the Greenlander as the loser in Danish society, someone who is either drunk, homeless, or destitute. Although some Greenlanders suffer from these issues, the majority of th

Ekonomisk Kontroll: Kinas Nya Sidenvägar och säkerhetspolitikens gråzoner

Under 2000-talet har Kina på allvar börjat etablera sig som en global supermakt. Centralt i Kinas internationella ambitioner är de nya Sidenvägarna, formellt kallat Belt & Road-iniative. Officiellt är BRI ett ekonomiskt samarbete som syftar till att sammankoppla världen i gemensam infrastruktur och liberala handelsavtal. Anklagelser har dock riktats mot Kina att detta är ett svepskäl för säker

Målpunkter som verktyg för integration - Studie av offentligt tillgängliga mötesplatser i Malmö

Begreppet segregation har under senare år tagit allt större plats i samhällsdebatten i Sverige. De bakomliggande drivande faktorerna för fenomenet är komplexa och svåra att förklara och att förändra bostadsbeståndet genom nybyggnation tar tid. Trots försök från politiskt håll och från stadsplanerare att motverka boendesegregationen i städer har inga bestående förändringar påvisats. Förutom det dirThe concept of segregation has in recent years been a subject of social debate in Sweden. The underlying driving factors for the phenomenon are complex and difficult to derive and changing the housing stock through new construction takes time. Despite attempts by politicians and city planners to counteract housing segregation in cities, no permanent changes have been concluded. A part from the nei

Thermal Performance Analysis of High Temperature Borehole Thermal Energy Storage Design from an Insulation Perspective

En utvärdering av design- och isoleringsaspekter för högtemperatursvärmelager i berg är en av nycklarna till en mer hållbar framtida energiförsörjning. Men värmelagringsförmåga såväl som ekonomisk potential behöver analyseras. I en värld kämpande mot klimatförändringar, krävs stora kraftsamlingar för att en framtida hållbarhet skall vara uppnåbar. Centralt för detta ligger minskning av koldioxiduThermal energy storage is a growing concept within the sector of energy production. The concept is based on storage of excess thermal energy, for usage during high demand, as a mean of reducing the need for new production. By implementing thermal storage economic and environmental gains can be made as production can be kept more constant over time and less energy is wasted, furthermore the storage
