Officially, the EU gender policy since 2000 has been guided by the strategy of Gender Mainstreaming. This strategy aims to promote gender equality and is informed by a feminist ontology which stipulates that women are structurally subordinated. In this essay, I examine whether the European Commission has adequately adhered to this gender policy in its free trade negotiations with the ACP (African
In part this paper is a contribution to the ongoing Swedish discussion about our public structures. The discussion has picked up speed in the last years thanks to a government backed committee trying to come up with a suggestion to make our public sector more efficient. A big part of the debate is about the independence and work of our municipalities, what they should do, what they shouldn’t do an
Primary education of good quality is necessitous to development, democracy and social inclusion. India has subscribed to the goals of education for all by 2015 and has embarked on immense priorities in education to reach the goals.

Skatterättsliga klassificeringen av fastigheter påverkar inkomstslag, avdragsrätt, kapitalvinstbeskattning, beskattningstidpunkt, skattereserveringar, sociala avgifter och förmåner. Klassificeringen kan påverka skattesatsen avsevärt. En fastighet klassificeras i regel som antingen privatbostadsfastighet eller näringsfastighet.

Bevisbördan vid särskilt komplicerade och svåröverskådliga orsakssamband åligger som huvudregel käranden. I min utredning har jag funnit att svaranden, rörande motargument, bär bevisbördan för anförda rättsfakta men inte för anförda bevisfakta. Motargumenten skall således klassificeras antingen som motsatsbevisning och utgör därmed bevisfakta eller som motbevisning som därmed utgör rättsfakta. Såd
In this essay I try to look into how to bring a new concept to an already established Viking village and how to develop the existing one. This essay also sheds light on some negative sides that a Viking village can experience in their activity. I have interviewed responsible persons at three different Viking villages: Foteviken Museum and Viking Reserve, Fornföreningen Fibulas Viking village and
In this thesis I discuss and analyse the use of violence of Basque radical nationalists after the 11th of September 2001 and the bombing of Madrid the 11th of March 2004. The field study is performed in the Basque country with interviews both on the French and Spanish side of the border with representatives from the Basque Nationalist Liberation Movement (BNLM).

This is an interview based qualitative case study on two Women's Migrant Associations in Malmoe, which I interpret as being part of a women's movement, with characteristics of a new social movement. The aim of this study is to get a deeper understanding on how the collective identity is being constructed, in this women's movement where the membership is not based on an exclusive ethnic
Crisis management planning is a relatively new policy area in the European countries. It has materialized since the fall of the iron curtain and because of the increased interest to prevent wide-ranging national emergencies. In Sweden, the county administrative board has a key obligation to perform risk analysis guidelines. This assessment involves identifying crisis, planning response to the cris
This dissertation examines aspects of the experience of being a student at Nääs’ sloydseminar between 1880 and 1940 and what consequences it had for the participants. The experience was more or less consciously constructed by the charismatic leader Otto Salomon and after his death in 1907 the responsability of ”composing” the experience was put on Rurik Holm, pedagogical manager between 1913 and 1
Background: In the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Swedish authorities enforced specific recommendations on social distancing for adults 70 years and older (70+). Day-to-day life changed for 15% of the Swedish population.

In view of Stuart Hall’s challenge issued in the wake of the 1985 Broadwater Farm riots, this essay aims to locate issues of precarity, racial injustice and rights in Alex Wheatle’s East of Acre Lane (2001) and The Dirty South (2008). Set on council estates in urban areas of London in 1981 and the early 2000s, respectively, these two novels represent and respond to continual legacies of colonialis
The following thesis examines two responses to processes of social change within the small town of Vellinge in the province of Scania, Sweden. The experiences of change within the town appear in the guise of two contradicting narratives – one of the town’s progress and the other of its decline – which I aim to approximate from nine in-depth interviews with eight inhabitants conducted in two cycles
Cities are expected to increase in extent and land-use intensity in the future. Thus, it is important to understand how overall species diversity responds to increasing urbanization to develop urban biodiversity conservation strategies. In this study, I used birds a biodiversity indicator. Using general linear mixed models, I analyzed how urbanization impacts alpha and beta diversity of birds. In
