The aim of this Master's thesis is to examine the ways in which culture and cultural policy are being articulated in the process of Lund's application to become Sweden's European Cultural Capital of 2014. I have used Dorte Skot-Hansen's three cultural political rationalities: the humanistic-, the sociological- and the instrumental rationality, as well as and Jenny Johannisson'

We have through our theoretical framework been able to create a simplified measuring tool for a KIZ; the S-TKL. We have found that the S-TKL is possible to implement on the Öresund Region but with some flaws. Even though the Öresund Region has implemented the mindset of a KIZ, accurate statistics are in some areas hard to find. We can also through our empirical findings say that it is difficult to

This research aims to analyze the development of activation policies in Sweden from the 1990s to the present, with a particular focus on how legislative proposals and public inquiries (SOU) have redefined the perception of welfare recipients. The study investigates how recipients have been described in policy documents and how their rights and obligations have evolved. By examining these changes,

The motivations for this study stems from Hjordnära’s interest to both, build greater brand awareness in Stockholm, and increase its ability to take market share in the organic dairy segment. Hjordnära is a small organic dairy producer owned by Skånemejerier, Sweden’s third largest producer of dairy products.

Människor skapar emotionella band till vissa platser, s.k. platsanknytningar, vilka anses starka nog att påverka samt påverkas av deras identiteter. Banden har undersökts för många typer av platser, däribland religiösa platser, men det är hittills oklart vad pilgrimers platsanknytning korrelerar med och varför. Denna studie syftar därför till att jämföra katolska och evangelikalt protestantiska pi

This analytical essay critically examines how social sustainability is constructed within Lund’s municipality district development program for Norra Fäladen. The existing research widely acknowledges that sustainable development and social sustainability are characterized by conceptual ambiguity and a lack of consensus regarding definition and measurement. Despite this, they are leading concepts f

This conceptual article examines brand orientation as an alternative to market orientation in the public sector. The problem with market orientation is that the focus on customers is too great; it is myopic, and lacks true interaction; it is mechanistic, and the emphasis on economic values is too strong. In this light, brand orientation becomes an interesting alternative. Brand orientation is more

This article analyses discourses about self-supporting women in Swedish women’s magazines in the 1920s, after the attainment of legal equality in marriage and the acquisition of the right to vote. The self-supporting middle class woman was a controversial figure in this context. On the one hand symbolizing freedom and independence, she was on the other hand ridiculed and labelled mannish and unatt

In this study, a multiphysics model is presented that predicts creep in three months old concrete cylinders subjected to drying. The model includes concrete hydration, and a moisture transport model with relative humidity as the driving potential. These parameters are important to include in order to simulate creep. The model was implemented in the finite element software COMSOL Multiphysics. The

In 1997 the Ugandan government introduced a reform program with the ambition to implement universal primary education.

The launch of universal primary education in Uganda implie
