This study analyzes the influence techniques applied when hijacking an organizational crisis in order to construct a larger narrative about Sweden. By applying the concepts of narration, mythical speech and moral culture, the study investigates which narrative techniques are applied to generate engagement in disinformation narratives. This was done through conducting a qualitative content analysis
Wearable security cameras has been used by police officers and other agents working within the field of security for many years. Some of these cameras are equipped with an accelerometer and gyroscope sensor that can be used to detect if something is happening to the wearer of the camera. Ideally, the recording should start automatically if the camera is affected by sudden movements, for example if
Sedan 2017 har elsparkcyklar fått ett stort genombrott i Sverige och har blivit ett allt vanligare transportmedel för att åka korta sträckor. Elsparkcyklar framförs i allt större utsträckning i urbana trafikmiljöer och detta kan innebära en större osäkerhet och otrygghet av elsparkcyklar i städerna och trafiksäkerheten kan påverkas negativt för oskyddade trafikanter. Detta examensarbete har som måSince 2017, electric scooters have become an increasingly common means of transportation in urbanized cities across Sweden for cover short mileage. Electric scooters are seen more often in urbanized cities and this can imply a greater sense of danger when the vehicles are driven more frequently in urban traffic environments, thus causing a greater impact on road safety for vulnerable road users.

Ämnet för uppsatsen är episka liknelser i Iliaden och Odysséen. Med episka liknelser avses liknelser som återger ett skeende och inte bara ett objekt och dess egenskaper. Frekvensen av episka liknelser och motiven för liknelserna undersökes i båda verken. Vidare studeras vilka liknelser som har ett destruktivt innehåll. Ytterligare en frågeställning i uppsatsen är hur applicerbar Lakoffs och Johns
Sweden has set a goal to produce 100% renewable electricity in 2040. In order to accomplish this, a transition towards renewable energy (RE) is necessary. However, the development of RE needs to coexist with other interests of the nation, as RE typically occupies large areas of land or off shore water. This has resulted in conflicts, for instance, between offshore wind power development and nation
Bakgrund: Runt 46 miljoner personer i världen har en demenssjukdom. Hälso- och sjukvården fokuserar på att underlätta vardagen samt bidra till god upplevd hälsa för personer som drabbats av en demenssjukdom eftersom det i nuläget inte finns någon bot. Få studier kartlägger musikaktiviteters påverkan på bland annat de funktionsnedsättningarna en demenssjukdom kan innebära. Denna litteraturöversikt Background: Around 46 million people worldwide have been diagnosed with dementia. Since this disease is incurable, the medical field supports people with dementia (PwD) by helping them conduct their daily activities. Additionally, healthcare professionals aim to improve PwDs’ perceptions of personal health. Few studies explore the effect that music has on PwD and their impairments. This literature
Abstract Authors: Hilda Andreasson & Maria Geritz Title: A phenomenon – several perspectives. A study concerning professionals’ construction of individuals suffering from co-morbidity in the form of abuse and mental illness. Supervisor: David Hoff Assessor: Anders Östnäs The purpose of this study has been to investigate, through a discourse analytic approach, how professionals construct co
As global connectivity becomes the driver of value and vulnerability, new concerns are coming into the foreground that needs to be addressed – for example, the resource security-climate nexus, or the means of governing emerging technologies. The broader context and outset for this thesis is the defense and civil security landscape. More specifically, strategic foresight and the increasing challeng
A growing number of firms are voluntarily starting to implement measures with the aim to reduce their corporate greenhouse gas emissions. This paper analyses sustainable travel mode incentives for the case of a travel-intensive professional service firm. The aim is to evaluate the relationship between hierarchical status and travel intensity, and the effectiveness of incentivising employees using
A transition probability is essentially a likelihood of ’something random’ transitioning from one state of being to another. Though, more formally, for all intents and purposes, the ’something random’ is a sequence of random events, which is a stochastic process. There are many stochastic processes that are valuable to understand. Examples can be found in a multitude of topics, from finance to biol
Jämfört med många andra industrier så har byggnadsindustrin halkat efter med att implementera digitala lösningar. I dagsläget är det enbart ett fåtal materialleverantörer och tillverkare som erbjuder en tjänst av så kallade digitala BIM-objekt till sina produkter. Dessa digitala produkt kopior kan nyttjas för flera syften i projektmodeller vilket exempelvis gynnar desing-team och entreprenörer. DeThe construction industry has in general been rather slow in its implementation of new digital solutions compared to other industries. To date, only a handful of material suppliers are offering a service of so-called digital BIM-objects of their products. These 'digital product copies' can be utilized in projects' BIM-models for several purposes, being favorable to the design team and
Uppsatsen studerar problematiken mellan TDM och upphovsrättsligt skyddade verk. Genom teknisk utveckling används TDM mer. Det används bland annat för automatiserade beslut i myndigheter och inom modebranschen för att hitta liknelser i olika klädesplagg. Detta eftersom TDM kan identifiera samband och strukturer i stora datamängder. Processen för TDM innebär att den data som matas in kopieras. Om deThe essay studies the problem between text and data mining (TDM) and copyrighted works. Through technological development, TDM is used, among other things, to make automated decisions in the authorities and in the fashion industry as tools that find similarities between different garments. TDM is used in these fields because it can identify connections and structures in large volumes of data. The
This thesis aims to reveal whether the Commission’s approach in the State aid assessment of advance pricing agreements (APAs) is in line with the current EU law framework and whether, given its implications, it is a sensible development in State aid law applied to taxation. Chapter 2 introduces the background of the arm's length principle, looking into its origin, purpose and application in ta
I föreliggande studie utformades en modell utifrån hypotesen att negativa attityder i commit- meddelanden predicerar misslyckande i Open Source-projekt. Denna modell testades kvantitativt med ett bekvämlighetsurval av digitalt förvarade projekt eller så kallad repositories (n = 990) på GitHub. Ett egenutvecklat verktyg i form av en webbapplikation användes till att utvinna samtliga data och ett in
The aim of this study was to examine attitudes towards LGBTQ-people among social work students at Lund University in Sweden. The purpose was specifically to study if the attitudes change during the program and if the social work education has any impact on the attitudes. The data was collected through a digital survey-method which was distributed by email to students of all semesters of the educat
Idag är hållbart tänkande något som är närvarande i flera sammanhang både privat och offentligt. Distributionsföretag arbetar frekvent med att göra så lite avtryck som möjligt på miljön, samtidigt som de vill vara ekonomiskt hållbara. Syftet med studien har varit att skapa djupare förståelse för distributionsbranschens argument för och emot användandet av nya distributionsfordon samt belysa motsät
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka vilka diskurser och subjektpositioner som finns tillgängliga för unga vuxna i Sverige när de förhåller sig till vad som är ett gott liv, samt hur nöjdhet konstrueras inom dessa diskurser. Detta undersöktes med hjälp av en Foucauldiansk diskursanalys av ett intervjumaterial som samlats in inom ramen för forskningsprojektet SOL-2. Tre olika diskurser om vad This study aimed to examine which discourses of what constitutes the good life are available to young adults in Sweden, what subject positions these discourses offer, as well as which constructions of satisfaction are contained within these discourses. This was done by using a Foucauldian discourse analysis on interviews carried out within the research project SOL-2. Three discourses were identifi
The discussion of what the notion of ‘persecution’ entails seems to be evergreen during a time when people are more and more on the move fleeing deprivation of socioeconomic rights. A ‘human rights approach’ to the refugee definition, namely an interpretation by reference to human rights standards, is now endorsed in relevant scholarship. This thesis explores how the disability-specific standards
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from land use, and increasing carbon storage in soils, is an important climate mitigation strategy. I conducted a literature study based on 174 articles to investigate the potential of temperate forest-, agricultural- and pasture land and urban parks to store carbon in soils; identified measures that could increase their storage potential by increasing the rate of
