Denna uppsats utforskar uttryck, signaler och konstruktioner av varumärkesautenticitet inom svenska varumärken med ett starkt kulturarv. Studien genomfördes som en kvalitativ undersökning där en multimodal analys användes för att granska innehållet i reklamfilmer från elva svenska varumärken. Materialet analyserades med utgångspunkt i ett teoretiskt ramverk som definierar varumärkesautenticitet soThis thesis explores the expressions, signals, and constructions of brand authenticity in Swedish heritage brands. A qualitative study was conducted using multimodal analysis to examine video advertisements from eleven Swedish heritage brands. The material was analyzed based on the theoretical framework that views brand authenticity as built on the cornerstones of consistency, honesty, and genuine

An emerging research topic in quantum thermodynamics is the study of entangled quantum heat engines, where the working medium consists of an entangled quantum system. These engines offer exciting platforms for exploring fundamental aspects of quantum thermodynamics, its intersection with quantum information theory and the nature of entanglement in general. In this bachelor’s thesis, the performanc

I början av 1990-talet genomfördes en reform på vårdnadsområdet för personer med funktionsnedsättning, den s.k. LSS-reformen. Avsikten var att lagen (1993:387) om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade skulle ge dessa personer bättre möjligheter att leva sina liv på samma sätt och på lika villkor som personer utan funktionsnedsättning. Lagen har därför utformats som en rättighetslagstiftninIn the early 1990s, Sweden undertook a major reform of care and support services for persons with disabilities: the so-called LSS reform. The aim of the Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (1993:387) was to give such individuals better opportunities to live their lives on equal terms as persons without disabilities. The Act has therefore been designed

What happens when the infrastructure designed to connect a city ends up dividing it instead? This thesis investigates the relationship between urban mobility and spatial justice, examining how roads, railways, and transit corridors generate barriers that are not only physical but social and cultural: separating communities, limiting access to opportunity, and reinforcing patterns of inequality ins

As the EU accelerates its climate ambitions, the governance of logistics emissions reporting has become an increasingly contested and complex challenge. Despite growing regulatory ambition, alignment between governance frameworks across levels remains largely underexplored. This study examines EU multi-level governance of logistics emissions reporting, drawing on policy coherence theory and applyi

The aim of this thesis is to examine how the public artworks Fossil Composition (1955), Stone Flower (1955) and Tousle (1952), through their bureaucratic municipal processes, reflect the broader ideological ideas of the welfare state, or Folkhemmet, between 1951 and 1956. It also aims to examine what notions of intended municipal identity can be identified through the discourses surrounding the ch

In this episode, Anya Kristina Cheng Dahl talks to Prof. Helle Tegner Anker about how offshore wind law, especially EIAs, can reconcile biodiversity protection with the rapid deployment needed to meet climate targets.

In this episode, we talk to Professor Randall S. Abate, Assistant Dean for Environmental Law Studies at the George Washington University Law School about standing in climate change litigation.

K-pop has become one of the most influential forces in the music industry that create commercially significant human brands with a significant amount of fan base. Traditionally, consumer-brand relationship (CBR) literature has focused on how consumers interact with product brands grounded on a Western individualistic and dyadic perspective. However, this framework does not adequately explain how c

Microplastics are becoming an increasingly bigger problem, and there are currently around 150 million tons of plastic in the ocean. Most plastic in the ocean was released on land and then transported to the ocean. There are, however, microplastics released directly into the ocean, for example from boat paint. This study will investigate paint microplastic released from the storage area in a Swedis

This project investigates how power operates as performative in the everyday work experiences of employees of different ethnic backgrounds in a multinational organization. Rather than treating power as a stable possession held by individuals or institutions, the study conceptualizes power as enacted, reproduced, and negotiated through routine individual and organizational practices. For migrants t

At a time when journalism is said to be facing an epistemic crisis, the Baltic Sea islands tell a different story. On Åland, Gotland, Bornholm, and Saaremaa, local newsrooms still verify their information and connect to and sustain public life. Besides being a source of information, their journalism is also part of the islands’ shared identity – and a reminder that a free press is something worth

This thesis examines how Chinese tourists construct geographical imaginations of the Gulf region and understand China–Gulf relations through travel experiences. The study integrates Critical geopolitics and Feminist geopolitics as its theoretical framework, viewing tourism as an everyday practice through which geopolitical meanings are produced and negotiated. Methodologically, the research uses t

This thesis examines how public health communication campaign messages should be tailored to promote healthier eating habits, using Region Skåne’s Ha det gott! campaign as a case study. Guided by social marketing theory, the Health Belief Model, and the WHO Strategic Communications Framework, the study explores how message tailoring can impact intentions for behaviour change in a public health con

As remote and hybrid work become institutionalized, Global Virtual Teams (GVTs) increasingly rely on digital communication to sustain collaboration. While communication technologies enable connectivity, they do not necessarily foster engagement or belonging among employees. This thesis examines how internal communication shapes employees’ experiences of engagement and belonging in newly formed Glo

Since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in 2022, state ideology and memory politics in Russia have undergone significant changes. This shift has been accompanied by the consolidation of official historical narratives and increasing pressure on alternative or critical ones. In particular, the commemoration of Stalinist repression has become more contested, with growing evidence of the destru

How does Security Force Assistance (SFA) impact Niger's security sector and beyond? I draw on extensive fieldwork in Niger and identify and analyse two developments taking place in Niger's security sector: the development of an expanded Special Forces Command and the elaboration of multiple mobile hybrid units. I build upon, and contribute to, existing studies related to the politicization and sec
