Att arbetssökandes etnicitet spelar en stor roll i chanserna att få ett arbete har tidigare visats (Arai, Schröder, Skogman Thoursie & Thoursie, 2006; Integrationsverket 2006). Kan en företagspolicy förespråkande lojalitet mot ingruppen leda till etnisk diskriminering? 96 studenter fick läsa en företagspresentation samt kravspecifikation angående en ekonomiassistenttjänst. Företagspresentation
I denna uppsats har jag fokuserat på konflikter och lärande. Konflikter är för oss oftast kopplat till något negativt och på så sätt kan det kännas jobbigt att sättas i situationer som känns ohanterbara och obehagliga. Jag har i en litteraturstudie försökt analysera konflikter ur ett mer positivt perspektiv. Mitt syfte har varit att undersöka hur konflikter kan leda till lärande och utveckling. Fö
The present study is a part-study of the EVEDMUS (evaluation of teacher education in music) project aiming to examine the music teacher education programmes across Europe and Latin America. The overarching objective of the EVEDMUS project is to learn about the different conditions and causes in which the musical and educational knowledge is being constructed and identify factors in the programmes
The purpose of this study is to make a close and critical scrutiny of the EU Lisbon Strategy and the assumption of `sustainable growth´. A basic question is to clarify what is meant by `sustainability´ in the economic and the environmental dimension respectively, and also, to analyse the meaning of `sustainable growth´. Secondly, I try to investigate the relationship between the economical and env
Min uppsats kommer att belysa subkulturer, hur och varför de uppkommer. Vad det är som driver människor till att agera mot lagstiftningen. (Etnometodologins "Against the law"). Jag ämnar än så länge se dels på de organisatoriska förhållanden under vilka beslut fattas, strukturella förändringar i samhället. Jag kommer att titta på sociala förhållanden dels människor emellan och dels deras
Abstract This thesis examines whether it is possible to ascertain a measurable difference between granted and refused grant applications with automatic methods. A corpus of project descriptions from the Swedish Science Council was examined with different classification techniques and using different linguistic features. A Naive Bayes classifier is shown to be a good predictor for this type of pro
China's accession to the WTO was perceived as the West integrating the East into the international economy with market economy reforming the planned economy. The major actors, the United States (US) and the Euorpean Union (EU), with similar economic structures and ideologies were expected to cooperate and bargain the best offers from China. However, while the US adopted a confrontational appro
The main purpose of this study is to clarify the underlying reasons as to why people choose to travel by car or taxi, and to do so by using people´s choice of transportation to and from Arlanda Airport as an example. Furthermore it is also in our interest to see what changes are needed to make more travellers use the available public transportation. Because of the increasing pollution rate from t
The aim of this study was to examine the infiltration rate of water and some parameters affecting it. Especially the land usage, the abundance of roots and macropores were investigated. A field study was carried out on western Java in Indonesia, on the slope of Mount Salak. The study compared four different land uses; i.e. forest, shrub areas, tree plantation and cropland since there was a high o
Euroscepticism has been portrayed as the corollary of increased integration. The rapid EU development of the last fifteen years has, somehow, caused a breakdown in public support for integration. From a relative mass quiescence associated to the traditional permissive consensus over integration, European citizens have shown growing discontentment towards the EU and its orientations. This study is
Recent events suggest that cultural and economic differences between ?natives? and ?foreigners? in Europe tend to produce violence. This is because of the presentation of immigrants and refugees as a security problem in Europe. This thesis looks at the subject of immigration and asylum as securitized by recourse to xenophobic and stereotype-based political discourses and social practices of actors
The EU's Common Foreign and Security Policy has been described as flawed or even non-existing by many critics due to its intergovernmentalist nature. One of the latest incidents illustrating the CFSP's malfunction came about in 2003 after the US decided to engage in a war against Iraq. The failure of the EU to generate a unified stance regarding the decision on how to act in Iraq was put f
Det kommunala begreppet allmänkultur som är avgränsat till liveframträdande inom musik, teater och konst är utgångspunkten i denna uppsats. Kulturens plats i kommunernas beslutsorganisation skiljer sig åt i olika kommuner, vilket en genomförd kartläggning av de skånska kommunerna visar. I denna uppsats studeras Kävlinge kommun vars geografiska placering med närhet till ett flertal storstäder gör a
The present study focuses on the codeswitching phenomenon in Hong Kong and Swedish print newspaper advertisements. With a contrastive analysis of code-switched advertisements from Hong Kong and Sweden, this paper will also describe the patterns and structures of Cantonese-English and Swedish-English codeswitchings, what are mixed and the reasons why people code-switch. The results show that intra-
The institutional reform of EU poses a challenge for small Member States because it touches upon fundamental principles of formal equality and representation in EU. This paper tries to understand the strategies of small Member States towards the institutional reform. Hence, a theoretical model is developed. The theoretical model consists of three strategies that interact with on another: the offen
Slutsats: Hackern blev i tidningarnas diskurs inte bara en säkerhetsrisk utan även en samhällsfara. Hackern var en brottsling och det var endast i få artiklar som hackern framställdes på ett balanserat sätt. Det fanns dessutom flera sensationsartade artiklar där hackerns farlighet understryks. Hackern blev genom sin påstådda brottslighet och genom andra tecken ställd utanför nodalpunkten samhälle
So far the academic debate on the possible emergence of a European public sphere has been exhaustive however largely neglecting the implications of expressed multilingualism/linguistic diversity in the EU for formation of a public sphere. This study problematises the question of linguistic diversity within the framework of this debate. It outlines and examines the implications of linguistic divers
The objectives of this thesis are, by using an abductive methodology and from international regime and agenda-setting theoretical perspectives, to first define the European Union's Northern Dimension (ND) initiative as an international regime, secondly, to categorize the various formation stages of the policy regime and to identify future challenges. The thesis concludes with the following pol
ABSTRACT This thesis contains a partial edition of a previously unpublished manuscript, De lapidibus et gemmis (MH 59, Lund University Library). The manuscript was probably written in the late XVth century and consists of five parts. Part 1 (ff 1r-1v) and 2 (ff 2r-14r) are written in Latin, part 3 (ff 14v), which is probably later than the rest of manuscript (XVI century?), in German, part 4 (ff
