Through previous research, several factors concerning the lack of knowledge among professionals regarding their work with transgender clients have been identified. A need for more counseling support for transgender clients has also been identified. The following study aims to respond to these shortcomings by studying professionals in Sweden who have experience working with clients who are explorin

Language is a protected ground for discrimination internationally, but not in Sweden, although minority politics recognize language as a human right. This thesis focuses on Swedish Finns, one of Sweden's national minorities. As minority rights exist internationally, nationally, and locally, this thesis will analyze official documents from the Council of Europe, the Swedish state, and the Equal

China, as a huge and promising market, has always been largely exposed to and influenced by the Japanese and Korean idol industries. With various attempts trying to adopt the transnational experienced idol production within the challenging Chinese context, numerous reality television talent shows had been introduced in the past few years. After the very first boy group talent show, Idol Producer (

Internet of Things (IoT), det vill säga fysiska objekt med inbyggd elektronik som kan kopplas upp mot internet och styras eller utbyta data över nätet, har idag blivit en självklar del i många personers vardag. Det kan vara allt från hälsoarmband och kylskåp, till glödlampor och termostater. Som förutspås har vi dock ännu inte sett det stora genombrottet för denna teknik och vad den kan komma att The Internet of Things (IoT), i.e. physical objects with embedded electronics that can be connected to the internet and be controlled or exchange data over the network, has become an integral part of many people's daily lives. IoT devices can be anything from fitness trackers and refrigerators to light bulbs and thermostats. However, as is being predicted, we have yet to see the major breakthr

Potential drug to reduce bacterial survival Recently there has been an increase in common bacterial infections being tolerant to available antibiotics, thus leading to a possible health crisis. Bacteria has developed tolerance through a small molecule called ppGpp, which is highly produced during a stress response (e.g., antibiotics). This molecule is responsible for the shutdown of a variety of

The Swedish forestry debate is deeply polarised concerning the issue of the meaning and implications of sustainable forestry. This study explores how competing discourses on sustainability are constructed within the Swedish forestry debate and which actors contribute to their articulation and dissemination. Drawing on Maarten Hajer’s argumentative discourse analysis (ADA), the paper identifies dom

This thesis studies the potential economic effects of a menstrual leave pol- icy introduction in Sweden. With a basis in agency theory and previous research on insurance behavior, the Swedish sickness insurance system is an- alyzed alongside collected data from a survey conducted for the study. The Swedish sickness insurance system is found to not sufficiently support individ- uals in frequent nee

This thesis examines how the Irish Traveller organisation Pavee Point balances representing Irish Travellers, while simultaneously working closely with Irish authorities, and calling for funding from the EU and the Irish state. This is realised through critical discourse analysis of a position paper from Pavee Point, on Traveller men’s health. Power is a complex issue, especially in this case; Iri

När EU-kommissionens direktiv Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) röstades igenom i juli 2024 förändrades spelplanen för företag verksamma inom den Europeiska unionen (EU). CSDDD omvandlar det tidigare frivilliga ansvaret att leva upp till Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) till att bli juridiskt bindande regler. Företag som omfattas av CSDDD är skyldiga att utföra tillbörl

Miniaturisation of weapons and other tools is a phenomenon seen throughout the Viking Age in Scandinavia. Predominantly using the theory of semiotics, previous publications on miniature weapons have reached similar conclusions as to the functions of these objects. Three main interpretational threads can be seen repeated throughout the previous research; miniature weapons as symbolic objects, minia

This thesis examines how societal circumstances and historical references can be included in the construction of narratives with the intention of reaching and influencing listeners in a particular direction. It is based on two historical periods in Italy's history, first, the fascist takeover of the Kingdom of Italy, and then the establishment of the Republic of Italy following the fall of the

This article exposes the invisible sand that underpins Copenhagen’s transformation from fishing village to global city. By “following sand,” we trace how planetary material flows sustain urban expansion while entangling the city in processes of capital accumulation, class restructuring, and ecological degradation. Drawing on Science and Technology Studies (STS) approaches, yet situating them firml

In contemporary Sweden, welfare professionals are mobilising to signal that they lack the preconditions to carry out their work in line with the politically stated mission and professional ethics. Following a seminar in which welfare professionals shared their views on the working conditions, this study explores action strategies for welfare professionals who seek to influence the policy agenda. T

Risk minimization is no longer a sufficient survival strategy for poor people in livelihood systems increasingly exposed to frequent extreme events. This calls for comprehensive adaptation to climate change. Within the climate change regime, adaptation is as central as mitigation but needs to be much more explicitly addressed at local, national and global levels. There is also a need for policy re

This paper deals with knowledge flows and collaboration between firms in the regional innovation system of southern Sweden. The aim is to analyse how the functional and spatial organization of knowledge interdependencies among firms and other actors varies between different types of industries that draw on different types of knowledge bases. We use data from three case studies of firm clusters in

The main aim of the present thesis is to demonstrate the efficient quantum memories for light employing coherent processes in rare-earth-ion-doped crystals. Rare-earth (RE) ions between lanthanum, with atomic number 57, and lutetium, with atomic number 71, have a partly filled 4f shell, which is spatially inside the full shells 5s, 5p, and 6s. Therefore, 4f-4f transitions are shielded from environ

In this dissertion in Media History I study the history and development of online journalism in three Swedish local and regional newspapers: Helsingborgs Dagblad, Sydöstran and Ystads Allehanda. The starting point is historical: I have tried to anchor the three newspapers' decision to start their online newspapers in their own history and surrounding society. By following the three newspapers' wor
