There is an idea that nations form the basis of identity. Through history the rulers have tried to connect the cultural identity of the population with the identity the state is supporting, in order to further legitimize their ruling. This has constructed a conception of cultural homogeneity within a country, which in these modern years becomes more and more problematic with flows of migration. We

Thesis Purpose: This thesis aims to explore the complex phenomenon of female character representation, both quantity and portrayal, in video games and which factors either inhibit or enhance the creation and how. Methodology: A qualitative study with an inductive approach, designed to answer the research question “How do different factors contribute to the inclusion or exclusion of female charact

Climate change is a fact, new innovations and solutions need to be applied to mitigate the effects around the world. Greenhouse gases from burning fossil fuels are the primary cause of climate change, one of them being carbon dioxide. There are many attempts to make a turn-around regarding the use of fossil fuels and one of them is wind power. However, due to extreme loads their service life is ju

With increasing pressure to get rid of the world’s dependence on fossil fuels to reach the world’s climate goals, the use of alternative fuels for propulsion are needed. This is a challenge for the maritime industry, where ferries have good properties to become renewable by the usage of batteries. Their routes are mostly fixed routes and with good infrastructure established at each stop, fully bat

Why don't we learn about nutrition and cooking at school? Primary research and interviews conducted at a high school in Lund reveal that parents are the ones cooking (or ordering takeaways) at home, and that students have no understanding of how food is prepared in their school. At university, students are most commonly seen eating frozen meals and pasta for lunch. Yet Swedish students receive

Since its discovery in 2011, the ferroelectricity of thin films based on HfO2 has been studied intensively. In particular, thin films with a 1:1 ratio of HfO2 and ZrO2 (HZO) has been of great interest. The ferroelectricity arises from a non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic (o) phase of HZO whose prevalence is dependent on the processing conditions. One of these processing conditions is the annealing t

When installing an insertion device (ID) in a storage ring the electron beam is affected. The positional displacement and angle deflection is called orbit displacement (OD) and higher order effects such as focusing of the electron beam are referred to as linear optics. The ability to perform multiple simultaneous experiments is crucial in a synchrotron light source such as MAX IV. This is impossib

Fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composites are being used increasingly in lightweight applications where high strength and stiffness is required. One of the main challenges with designing components from such materials is to predict the ultimate strength and behaviour of the structure. Furthermore, due to anisotropic material response and a complex micro structure, various interacting failure mode

Den här studien syftar till att förstå och analysera de erfarenheter av själavård, med fokus på själavårdssamtal som svenska fältpräster bedrivit i Afghanistan under perioden 2002–2014. Vidare diskuterar jag utifrån det själavårdande perspektivet fältprästens övergripande funktion i utlandsstyrkan. I studien utgår jag från olika modeller för själavård vilka Berit Okkenhaug kategoriserat som kerygmThe aim of this study is to understand and analyse, with particular reference to pastoral care, the experiences of pastoral care Swedish army chaplains underwent in Afghanistan in the period 2002–2014. Furthermore, from the perspective of pastoral care I will discuss the role of the army chaplains in the international force. The study is based on three different models of pastoral care, categorise

Det finns i detta nu en pågående debatt inom den offentliga upphandlingen kring huruvida det är en för samhället positiv sak att i samband med upphandlingsprocessen ställa krav på att leverantören lever upp till vissa sociala åtaganden. De senaste årens utveckling har resulterat i att EU i allt större utsträckning uppmuntrar upphandlande myndigheter att använda sig av sociala hänsyn i sina upphandThere is, as we speak, an on-going debate within the area of public procurement, about whether the society has something to gain by setting social requirements on suppliers in the procurement process. The last years’ development has resulted in that the EU in a wider range encourage government bodies to take social concerns in public procurement, with the purpose to reach the common goals that the

Denna studie handlar om den rättsliga prövningen av en europeisk arresteringsorder i Sverige och Irland. En arresteringsorder är ett rättsligt avgörande i syfte att begära överlämnande av en person för lagföring eller verkställighet av ett frihetsberövande straff. Den utfärdas i ett land och ska utan ingående prövning verkställas i ett annat. Samarbetet kring den europeiska arresteringsordern skilThis study is based on the judicial review of a European arrest warrant in Sweden and Ireland. An arrest warrant is a judicial decision to request the surrender of a person for prosecution or enforcement of a custodial sentence. It is issued in one country and shall be executed in another without thorough examination. The European arrest warrant differs from the traditional extradition procedure i

Collecting and storing data is easier and more common than ever before. A lot of this data is personal data, which is problematic to store and use both for ethical reasons and because of legislations. In some scenarios the personal information in the data is not interesting or relevant for the given task but it is still collected and stored as a byproduct of the data collection. In these scenarios

This master thesis aims at deepening the understanding of actors interacting with competitors from the same business field within the tourism sector. Special attention is paid to small and medium sized enterprises. In order to increase the knowledge of the phenomenon the German network forum anders reisen consisting of small and medium sized tour operators has been used as the case to conduct empi

Purpose: The purpose of the thesis is to investigate how organizations should be designed in order to work in the best possible way in China. Method: A theoretical background has been studied. The background covered mainly cultural studies, where a comparison between Sweden and China was made, and also design parameters for an organization. An empirical study took place in Shanghai, China, where m

Springing from the relatively newco-creation paradigm, this article is based on the fact that consumers have asignificant influence on the brand building process. However consumers cannotbe understood as a sound and compact group of buyers with homogeneous values. Insteadvarious societal developments, and in particular the emergence of consumertribes, support the existence of a multiplicity of con
