I flera årtionden har konflikten mellan Israel och Palestina härjat i mellanöstern och varit ett hot mot freden. Konflikten går långt tillbaka i tiden men eskalerade kraftigt då Storbritannien lämnade över mandatet av det palestinska territoriet till FN, kort efter andra världskrigets slut, som i sin tur fattade beslutet om att försöka skapa en tvåstatslösning för territoriet. Konflikten, som än iDecades of conflict have long been a part of the life in the palestinian territory. The tension in the middle east region has since the beginning composed an underlying threat to peace. The conflict has kept on escalating since the end of WWII when the UK handed over the mandate for the palestinian territory to the UN. The UN then decided on a two-state-partition-plan that would grant land and sou

The purpose of this study is to, in chosen organization, describe and analyze the onboarding process based on how the people in charge work with and newcomers' perception of the onboarding process as well as to present proposals for possible development opportunities.

Less than a decade ago, Swedish law demanded that a person who wanted to change their legal gender had to be without any ability to reproduce. This demand led to many trans people being forcibly sterilized. Even though the demand is now removed from law, lingering effects continues to affect trans people in their reproductive journey. This study examines barriers faced by trans people in three sta

Nationell betygsstatistik visar att elever vars föräldrar inte har en eftergymnasial utbildning tenderar att lämna grundskolan med lägre betyg än elever med akademiskt meriterade föräldrar. Prestationsskillnaderna är stora i alla skolans kärnämnen, men framför allt i svenskämnet (se SIRIS 2020). Därför är syftet med föreliggande studie att undersöka hur svenskämnets läs- och skriv undervisning kan

"Bland mästare och mentorer" är ett examensarbete som syftar till att undersöka hur fyra kompositionslärare på högskoleförberedande musikutbildningar beskriver sin undervisning i relation till sitt hantverk som tonsättare/kompositörer. Studien har ett särskilt fokus på det självständiga övandet i komposition och undersöker hur lärare själva gör och vad av detta som de vill omsätta till u"Among Masters and Mentors" is a thesis which aims to investigate how four composition teachers in college preparatory music education programs view their teaching compared to their craftmanship as composers. The study has a special focus on the independent practice of composition and examines how the teachers themselves practice and which aspects of this they wish to transfer into their

Organizations are increasingly using communicative strategies to try influencing consumers to create a positive image around them. However, the image is an im-material concept in the mind of the consumer, which can create problems for or-ganizations since it is not possible to predict the image that will be assign to them. The study therefore intends to create an understanding of how consumers cre

There are a number of existing and new biofuels on the Swedish market. These operate differently and need to be managed in different ways. In order to solve problems associated with the transport sector's large and unsustainable energy consumption and emissions of CO2, it is important to study how biofuels can work in practice and gain a broad knowledge of prerequisites for their mainstream ma

This research shows the impact of credit rating change (thereafter CRC) announcements on the combined entities following mergers and acquisitions. In looking at the effect of CRC announcements on share prices, we measure the level of influence that a credit upgrade or downgrade has on the equity value of firms. Existing literature disputes the applicability of share price as a measure of value cre

Nowadays, innovation and technological development are considered as crucial for the development and economic growth of regions and nations. Knowledge interactions hold a central position in the innovation process. In line with this, researchers as well as politicians emphasize that knowledge interactions need to be facilitated. This approach has been adapted to the cross-border regional context a

Climate change places pressure on rural land in terms of carbon sequestration, biomass for substitution and adaptation of crops. Land use can both positively and negatively influence the runoff regime, therefor a catchment perspective is important when developing climate strategies. This is also important with respect to flood-risk that will increase with climate change. Here I investigate if ther

Temperaturutvecklingen i härdande betongkonstruktioner är av stort intresse, t ex för att undvika sprickbildning. Målet med detta projekt var att undersöka om man från mätningar av värmeutvecklingen hos cementbruk med isoterm kalorimetri kan beräkna temperaturutvecklingen i en betongkonstruktion. För att göra detta har mätningar med isoterm kalorimetri gjorts vid olika konstanta temperaturer. Från
