Radicalization of young people in Brussels is getting more and more common and the followers to ISIS are steadily growing. Lately, the attention has been on women in the radicalization process. The debate has been on wether those young women are brainwashed by ISIS or wether it can be an independent choice to join and travel to ISIS-territories. This study aimed to, by interviewing social workers
Purpose: The academic aim is to test the Entrepreneurial Architecture framework by Nelles and Vorley (2010a) against a department in relation to the creation of spin-offs. This is something we believe has not been done before and can add to the literature about departments in this respect. The practical objective is to present useful insights that help practitioners manage the complexity of this t
Bakgrund: Det finns i Sverige ett stort antal utlandsfödda och asylsökande. Lagar och riktlinjer reglerar deras rätt till hälso- och sjukvård. Om en patient inte talar svenska ska en tolk tillkallas. Det finns många utmaningar i sjuksköterskans samarbete med tolken för att kunna tillgodose patientens behov. Syfte: Att belysa sjuksköterskans upplevelse av situationer relaterade till tolkar och tolk
High mountain regions have experienced decreased glacier stability due to varying climate conditions. As glaciers melt, they are being replaced by glacial lakes of different sizes, some of which are prone to outburst flooding, and have caused catastrophic damage to downstream settlements and infrastructure. The study proposes a framework for a first stage hazard assessment of glacial lakes using G
Det råder tendenser av missnöje inom IT-system i den offentliga verksamheten. Systemen lever inte upp till de förväntningar som beställaren har initialt och de krav som denne tänkt sig då kravlistan i upphandlingsdokumentet utformades. En väsentlig andel av misslyckade it projekt kan härledas till dålig kravhantering. I offentlig verksamhet är dålig beställarkompetens en bakomliggande orsak till b
Geografiska data är all data som är knutna till ett geografiskt läge och används inom många olika områden i samhället såsom all form av samhällsbyggnad och samhällsplanering, klimat och miljö, kultur och natur, krishantering samt transporter och logistik.

In an innovation-driven economy, intangible assets (such as the information embodied in the relations between parties) are considered critical to the creation of new services and products. Still, innovation is viewed as a “black box” by managers, scholars and policymakers. In efforts to provide a better understanding of this process, this thesis shows a case study of the largest, privately-owned f
Ecosystems can undergo changes that are slow and gradual, or an abrupt change - a sudden nonlinear dynamics that can bring catastrophic changes and ultimately leads to the change in the structure and functioning. Non-linear and discontinuous changes sometimes may cause the system to shift into another undesirable state, called ‘regime shifts’ or ‘critical transition’. Recent model based and simula
The aim of this study was to examine the representation of Swedishness in current news reporting. Based on the assumption that Swedes – “we” – are presented as a reflection of ethnic minorities – “the Others” – it was presumed that an analysis of the depiction of ethnic minorities in the media in turn would generate an understanding of what Swedishness is claimed to be. The empirical material were
In this essay we have reviewed the discourse on pedophilia at the Flashback forum.

Our main focus has been the discourse on stigma and help-seeking. We have looked at the interaction between pedophiles and other users on the forum. Furthermore we have lo
Culinary herbs are fragrant plants that are used to enhance the flavour of dishes. They are highly perishable food products susceptible to microbial spoilage. One technique widely used to extend their shelf life is drying. However, during this process, aromatic compounds are lost and changes in colour and texture occur. This thesis investigates the effect of tissue impregnation with hypertonic sol
En katastrof, oberoende av ursprung, är en krisutlösande traumatisk händelse som drabbar människor dagligen.

Intresset för doping har varit stort sedan början av 1900-talet då idrotten professionaliserades. Idag finns en omfattande idrottslig reglering av doping. I Sverige är doping även ett brott som omfattas av lagstiftning. Regleringen av doping har varit, och är fortfarande, föremål för omfattande debatt. Ett stadgande som väckt stor uppmärksamhet är de idrottsliga reglernas princip om strikt ansvar.Ever since the professionalisation of sports in the early 20th century, there has been a great interest in doping-related issues. Today, the athletic regulation towards doping is comprehensive. In Sweden it is also a crime by legislation. The regulation has been, and still is, a great subject of debate. A provision that has attracted attention is the athletic principle of strict liability. The pri
Yngre personer är överrepresenterade bland politiska protestdeltagare, och mobiliserar ofta till dessa via sitt sociala nätverk. Då tidigare forskning visat att deltagande kan prediceras av en press att konformera till sociala normer, dvs. av need to belong (NTB) och rejection sensitivity (RS), så ämnade följande studie att undersöka huruvida relationerna mellan dessa skulle vara starkare för yngrYounger people are over-represented in political protests, and tend to mobilise via social ties. As previous research has found participation to be predicted by the pressure to conform to social norms, i.e. by need to belong (NTB), and rejection sensitivity (RS), the current study aimed to investigate whether those relations would be stronger among younger people than older. Furthermore, the effec
This thesis is a case study of the energy consumption of similar warehouses in different geographic locations. The purpose is to examine how to reduce the effect of the climate so that other parameters that control energy consumption in warehouse type buildings can be explored. Further the problem is explored with different organization that can come across such a problem. The rapport uses degree

Det brukar heta att vi alla är nya någon gång. Ändå bortser majoriteten av ledarskapsforskningen från något som vi menar är av oerhörd betydelse för att ledarskapet ska fungera väl eller inte, erfarenhet. I dagens forskning finns brister kring korrelationen mellan ledarskap och graden av erfarenhet. Vår studie ämnar skapa förståelse för fördelar och nackdelar med oerfaret ledarskap samt visa på hu
