I den här uppsatsen undersöker jag hur översättning används som en feministisk skrivandestrategi i Nicole Brossards roman "Le desert mauve". Uppsatsen använder den franskkanadensiska teoretikern Susanne de Lotbinière-Harwoods idé om "traduction au féminin" - ett slags feministisk översättarpraktik, för att analysera de inslag av översättning som finns i romanen.In this paper I examine how translation is used as a feminist writing stratey in Nicole Brossard's novel "Mauve desert" (Le désert mauve). The paper uses the French-Canadian translator Susanne de Lotbinière-Harwood's theory of "translating in the feminine" - a feminist translation practice, to analyse the occurance of translation found in the novel.

In recent years, III-V semiconductor materials have received increasing attention due to their admirable electronic properties like direct tunable bandgaps and high charge carrier mobility. Indium Antimonide (InSb) possesses the largest electron mobility among III-V materials and is promising for infrared detectors, high-speed field effect transistors, and spintronics. Incorporation of bismuth (Bi

Solar energy plays a vital role in the transition to a greener global energy supply. As a decentralized energy source, the expansion of solar energy is not driven by energy suppliers and government as in traditional energy sources but is proliferating through the market through a variety of business propositions. Germany has, for a long time, been a pioneer in the field of solar. The country was t

In the aftermath of significant geopolitical shifts in 1989, Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) underwent pivotal economic transitions from state-controlled systems to market-driven environments. This study focuses on the CEE countries from 1992 to 2020, dissecting the intricacies of their varied economic outcomes and their incomplete convergence. By separately testing social capabilities, namely tr

I detta projekt undersöker jag om och i så fall hur jag som kyrkomusiker kan främja körens och församlingens engagemang och deltagande i den liturgiska musiken i gudstjänsten i den församling i Svenska kyrkan där jag är verksam. Utifrån kyrkans historiska och teologiska traditioner har jag gjort nya tonsättningar av de sjunga texter som ingår i mässordningen och instuderat dessa med kör och gudstWithin the frames of this thesis, I explore and describe my process and possibilities to increase the engagement and participation of both choir and congregation concerning the liturgical music within the service, in the congregation where I hold my employment as organist and choral conductor. As a method for this I have composed new music for the sections within the mass, all according to the the

This Master’s thesis explores ethics and sustainability in the design of consumer electronics. It begins with a theoretical review of sustainable design methods and ethical principles relevant to globalised value chains. Through an explorative design process, it culminates in proposed strategies for the design of sustainable electronics. Designers’ evolving roles, sustainability- oriented inno

När ordet alienation nämns råder ofta en känsla av isolering och ensamhet, och vissa tänker på alienation från hemlandet. Alienation är ett begrepp som har många dimensioner och har behandlats av många tänkare. Denna studie handlar om alienation och kreativitet. Den alienation som avses här är, social alienation, själv-alienation och kulturell alienation. Syftet med studien är att belysa om det f

Population decline in rural areas is observed in almost every European country. In Croatia, there are no meaningful strategies to mitigate the consequences of depopulation. As a result, many rural communities have already disappeared, while more are becoming unsustainable. Krapina-Zagorje is a region severely impacted by the shrinking and aging of its population. This thesis approaches depopulatio

The aim of the study was to find out how well individuals perform when solving hypothetical causally related problems, and further understand what intelligence factors interact with this. This was done via a survey that consisted of hypothetical, linear relation, causal scenarios. Two experiments were conducted to ensure that no validity issues confounded the results. Experiment 1 consisted of 77

This paper investigates how the American contra Scandinavian prison system relate to prison clothing. Furthermore, it discusses the history of prison uniform and how prison uniform connects to identity. With the end goal of examining whether prison clothing contributes to the ever so nourished discourse, in which clothing is simply described as part of vanity. The research conducted is a direct re

Kulturskolan är den största offentliga satsningen på barnkultur som finns i Sverige (Kulturskolerådet, 2023). Visionen som beskrivs på Kulturskolerådets (u.å.) hemsida är likvärdiga möjligheter för utveckling genom kulturutövande för alla barn och unga. Med det i åtanke är det problematiskt att det är svårt att hitta forskning på hur tillgänglighet och inkludering av elever med kognitiva och/eller

The groundbreaking field of synthetic biology has immense potential to revolutionize our society by reducing our reliance on petroleum. With a growing demand for sustainable ingredients and molecules, companies like Amyris, who have successfully developed and commercialized this technology, are poised to reap significant rewards. I am privileged to work for a scientifically advanced organization t

Under de senaste fem åren har olika ekonomiska faktorer som påverkar bostadssituationen i Sverige ökat avsevärt, med skyhöga elpriser, bostadräntor och en hög inflation bl.a. Läget har gjort det omöjligt för främst unga, äldre eller människor i utanförskap att införskaffa en egen bostad. Samtidigt är landet ett av de länder som har flest ensamboenden i sina städer, vilket är en stor orsak till psyOver the past five years, various economic factors affecting the housing situation in Sweden have significantly increased, including skyrocketing electricity prices, housing interest rates, and high inflation, among others. This situation has made it impossible for primarily young people, the elderly, or individuals facing social exclusion to acquire their own homes. At the same time, the country

I den offentliga debatten talas det ofta om att vi lever i en politiskt polariserad tid. Många hävdar att det är ett globalt fenomen, och ofta framhävs de senaste decenniets amerikanska presidentval samt den brittiska folkomröstningen om Brexit som tragiska exempel. Båda händelserna kännetecknades av ett minskat förtroende för media, politiska institutioner och mellan väljare av motsatta politiskaIn the last decade, the topic of political polarization has become a growing concern within academic and public debate. Many highlight the linkage between increased political polarization and democratic problems such as political tribalism and uncivil activism. It is also argued to be a global phenomenon. Despite this, research on political polarization - and its outcome in space (i.e. geographic

The global surge in plastic production, particularly single-use packaging, has triggered pressing environmental and health concerns. Addressing this crisis necessitates transformative shifts within the plastic packaging system, prioritizing the reduction, reuse, and recycling of plastic packaging. The European Union (EU) has initiated a Plastic Strategy to combat the plastic issue. This study eval

Warming in the Arctic occurs at a much higher rate than the global average, which has a considerable impact on the Arctic terrestrial carbon cycle. Permafrost thawing can release substantial amounts of carbon, whilst tundra shrubification and tree-line advance, on the other hand, may compensate for this. To gain a better understanding of the Arctic carbon cycle in the future, global dynamic vegeta

Tillgång till vatten tas ofta för givet i vattenrika länder som Sverige, men säker vattenförsörjning hotas alltmer av torka. Denna uppsats analyserar hur den svenska vattensektorn reagerade på torkan 2018, genom att analysera vatten-diskurs med hjälp av ramverket "Vad är problemet representerat att vara?". Uppsatsen utforskar torkans effekter på vattenpolicy och hur aktörer i södra SveriAccess to water is taken for granted in water abundant countries like Sweden, but safe water supply is increasingly threatened by droughts. This thesis analyses how the Swedish water sector responded to the unprecedented drought in 2018, by analysing water security discourse through the framework “What’s the problem represented to be?”. It explores implications of the drought on water policy and h

Klimatförändringar förväntas leda till längre brandperioder och ökad brandrisk. I Sverige, där homogen produktionsskog utgör största delen av landskapet, finns ett behov av bättre förståelse för skogens mottaglighet för bränder för att kunna mildra risker. I denna avhandling avser skogsbrandmottaglighet sannolikheten för att skogen brinner efter att antändning har ägt rum och inledande brandspridnClimate change is expected to result in longer fire seasons and increased fire risk. In Sweden, where homogenous production forest makes up the majority of the landscape, there is a need for better understanding of forest fire susceptibility in order to mitigate risk. In the context of this thesis forest fire susceptibility is the likelihood of forest burning after ignition and initial fire propag

Renewable Energy Communities (REC) are seen as a way to promote energy justice and security and advance a democratic, socially-just energy transition. However, energy justice scholarship indicates that some social groups are not included in RECs. I conducted four semi-structured interviews with urban RECs in Germany to find out which communities are underrepresented and why. The feminist energy ju
