This study aims to examine the online afterlife of the slasher film Sleepaway Camp (1983, Robert Hiltzik) and how this afterlife relates to the queer elements in the film and its role as a cult film. By combining analytical perspectives and tools deriving from film studies and media studies, through applying film analysis as a method and using a netnographic approach, the fields complement each ot

This thesis uses the humour theories of Michael Bachtin to analyse how meaning is constructed in internet memes, with a focus on the discourse created in online incel forums. The study focuses on iterations of the meme Virgin vs. Chad as an example of how masculinity is negotiated with the help of comedic expression. The dynamics of masculinity is understood through Raewyn Connell’s theoretical fr
The COVID-19 pandemic revealed the fragility of the global food system and its existing inadequacies in achieving food security, providing jobs, and ensuring environmental sustainability on various regimes around the world. Through a qualitative thematic-textual analysis, this thesis uses a case study of New York City to identify themes of actor expectations, either explicit or implicit, on how to
I Sverige är var och en gentemot det allmänna tillförsäkrad yttrandefrihet genom grundlagsskyddet i RF. Yttrandefriheten får inte inskränkas annat än vad som är föreskrivet i lag. Ett sådant inskränkande får endast göras för att tillgodose ändamål som är godtagbara i ett demokratiskt samhälle och får inte gå utöver vad som är nödvändigt med hänsyn till det ändamål som har föranlett det. Även en Everyone in Sweden have a constitutional right to freedom of expression without interference by public authority through the laws established in RF. The right to freedom of expression may not be restricted in any way other than what is prescribed through law. Any such restriction must be made with the purpose to serve a cause that is acceptable in a democratic society and may not exceed what is ne
In my thesis, I follow the argument of the authors belonging to the school of decoloniality, who explore the phenomena of coloniality of power outside of historical colonialism. This gives me the freedom to look through decolonial lances into phenomena of undergoing colonization through data. By following the idea that data colonialism is a reality, not just a metaphor, I examined how data colonia
The purpose of conducting this study was to analyze how forced expropriations and the demolitions of informal settlements could fall under the umbrella of “climate change adaptation” measures. Using an actor-network lens and translation theory, these translations are systematically broken down between three distinct levels: global discourse, national discourse, and implementation. As the idea of a
Tractography is a visualization technique which reconstructs and models neural fibers in the white matter of the brain based on data from diffusion magnetic resonance imaging. It is already used locally to model parts of dominant fiber pathways but global methods are also emerging which aim to reconstruct all the brain fibers simultaneously. In this thesis we have attempted to improve the current
In this study I present a theoretical model based on Marx´s critique of political economy, specific readings of Marx´s work and the regulation approach. This model will be used to explain long waves and cycles in long term economic growth, creative destruction (i.e the relation between technological leaps and economic crisis) and the ways in which these processes correspond to institutional develo
Anna Brandin Struvit från allt vårt skit – näringsåtervinning under utveckling Fosfor är en ändlig resurs och för att inte hota jordens matproduktion är det viktigt att återföra fosforn genom ett hållbart kretsloppsperspektiv. Det kan exempelvis ske genom att återanvända fosfor från avloppsslam. Det finns flera olika metoder för att utvinna fosfor ur avloppsslam utan att få med oönskade ämnenDuring the biological phosphorus removal (EBPR) process, the phosphorus accumulating organisms (PAOs) accumulates excess phosphorus in the form of polyphosphorus (poly-P) in the aerobic phase. In the following anaerobic zone, PAOs take up volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and simultaneously releases poly-P. Through hydrolysis of the biosludge, the slowly biodegradable organic carbon is degraded into VFA
Within the ongoing development of Alstom's latest heavy-duty gas turbine, the motivation for this thesis is the need for a fuel gas pressure prediction software. The key challenge in the development of such a software is finding the model that predicts the pressure drop over the burner hardware. This model has to predict fuel pressure for over critical and under-critical flow over the entire l
The goal of this paper is to investigate the changing nature of India’s and Bangalore’s economy. This study will assess India’s change in the allotment of resources between different sectors within the state and country. To investigate the shifts, this paper will disaggregate the economy into three broad sectors, primary secondary and tertiary. It is expected that the much of the success of India
Before going into details and regulations behind the safeguard measures it's important to understand the basic starting point. The members of WTO all agree to have tariffs at a certain level and the member countries are prohibited to raise the tariffs above this level. This makes the system predictable&semic every one knows the tariff levels. Speaking in a broad sense one can say that this
Bakgrund: För att skelettmuskulaturen ska kunna kontraheras krävs energirika fosfatbindningar som heter adenosintrifosfat (ATP). För att tillgodose muskulaturens behov av energi finns 3 olika system, där det största, som producerar majoriteten av all ATP under vila och längre ansträngningar (>1 minut) är det aeroba systemet. I avsaknad av syre eller när de aeroba processerna inte hinner ta vara p
Bakgrund Handboll innehåller mycket kroppskontakt och riktningsförändringar i hög hastighet och med stora krafter. Baserat på sportens utformning är axelskador vanligt förekommande, både i form av akuta skador till följd av att spelare blir dragna i armen eller landar på armen, och överbelastningsskador från upprepade skott och passningar. Syftet med studien var att kartlägga och jämföra förekomst
Bakgrund: Kritisk sjukdom kan definieras som ett tillstånd av svikt i vitala parametrar, vilket ökar risken för oplanerad inläggning på intensivvårdsavdelning (IVA), intrahospitalt hjärtstopp samt död. På vårdavdelning används idag ett standardiserat bedömningsverktyg, National Early Warning Score (NEWS), för att bedöma vitala parametrar. Vid höga NEWS-poäng bör en mobil intensivvårdsgrupp (MIG) k
Increased energy efficiency is identified as a key strategy to tackle three energy-relatedchallenges (energy security, climate change and economic development) with low trade-offsand huge win-win opportunities. Energy service contracting represents an instrument of thedemand side energy management that enables cost-effective energy savings. However, theinstrument implementation is many times hinde
This paper aims to discover viable ways in which the Global South can effectively challenge the primacy of the Global North, in order to create a more equitable global order. This thesis is premised on a dependency approach to international relations which stipulates that the Global South, or Third World, is underdeveloped because of actions by the Global North, or the First World. The legacy left
