Denna studie syftar till att analysera användning av begreppen trygghet/otrygghet utifrån den diskurs som förs av sittande regeringspartier och Sverigedemokraterna med koppling till det omtvistade Tidöavtalet. Begreppen trygghet/otrygghet har varit centrala inom svensk politiksedan 1900-talet. Den diskurs som förs av Tidöpartierna är inget undantag. I Tidöavtalet presenteras ett flertal trygghetss

Vi är dagligen omringade av kemiska produkter och varje år skadas barn och vuxna i kemikalierelaterade olyckor. För att förhindra olyckor orsakade av kemiska produkter är det därför viktigt att sådana produkter märks och förpackas korrekt i enlighet med lagstiftningen. Kemikalier som kan leda till allvarliga skador är framförallt frätande produkter och produkter som vid förtäring kan glida ned i lEach year children and adults are injured in accidents caused by chemicals, usually due to incorrect use of the products. Studies have shown that children are more sensitive to chemical products and injuries that occur during childhood could cause lifelong consequences. In order to prevent accidents caused by chemicals it is important to label and package these products appropriately in accordance

The aim of this study is to examine the attitudes of the Swedish public towards the use of covert coercive measures for the purpose of crime prevention. There is currently a bill in Sweden to broaden the applicability of covert coercive measures for preventative purposes in the context of criminal activities taking place within an organization or group. The use of covert coercive measures may infr

I denna uppsats har vi undersökt work-family conflict och family-work conflict inom Lunds universitets bibliotek. Till vår hjälp har vi använt oss av en kvantitativ enkät som gick ut till 211 anställda där 104 personer svarade. Av dessa användes 62 deltagares svar som grund för undersökningen. Undersökningens frågeställningar lyder: Skiljer sig män och kvinnors upplevelse av WFC och FWC vid Lunds This research has investigated work-family conflict and family-work conflict within the libraries at Lund university. A quantitative method with surveys was used and sent to 211 employees and 104 answers were collected. 62 of these received answers were used due to internal dropout. The research questions that this research is based on are: Are there any differences between men and women’s perceiv

Counting opening cycles on an automatic sliding door is of great interest for a company manufacturing doors, such as ASSA Abloy. These metrics could be used for consumer statistics or for door diagnostics. Counting opening cycles is seemingly trivial when there is access to the door’s internal diagnostics or having adequate sensors. Problems start to arise when these are not present, which is the

Kriget i Ukraina har drivit upp flyktingantalet till ett högre antal än någonsin tidigare. Syftet med denna studie är att med hjälp av en kritisk diskursanalys och den postkoloniala teorin analysera hur ukrainska flyktingar framställs i svensk media idag. Framställningen kontrasteras mot tidigare forskning kring framställningen av flyktingar i media. Syftet operationaliseras i följande frågeställn

Denna studie har utförts med syfte att undersöka sambandet mellan sociotropi och konformitet, samt könsskillnader inom dem. Relationen mellan dessa variabler är hittills outforskad, men tidigare forskning föreslår att det rimligen finns ett positivt samband mellan dem. Denna studie kan därmed bidra till viktiga kompletterande perspektiv för att uppnå en bredare förståelse av individuella egenskapeThis study was aimed to examine the relationship between sociotropy and conformity, together with gender differences within them. While this specific intersection of subjects has not been explored earlier, previous research suggests it would be reasonable to expect a positive relationship between them. This study could therefore contribute to important supplementary perspectives to achieve a broad

Study purpose: The maritime shipping industry, particularly the commercial sector, is a significant contributor to carbon emissions and environmental pollution. Various solutions are being proposed to enhance the sector's sustainability, including the adoption of wind propulsion technologies. However, the economic feasibility of these technologies on a large scale remains uncertain. Despite th

This research paper investigates the technical feasibility, system requirements, performance characteristics, and potential for optimization of an industrial heat pump in a district heating system, using the Modelon Impact platform. The study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the benefits and limitations of using cloud-based simulation platforms for the design and analysis of indust

Unmanned stores are increasing in popularity as the prominence of digitalization is changing not only the customer-retailer interface but also the servicescapes of the stores. The current stakeholders within the industry are (1) tech-positive entrepreneurs that want to innovate the industry or (2) convenience-focused retailers adopting technological solutions to ease the workload. These innovation

Thesis Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore young consumers' identity creation in the context of nostalgic consumption and marketing. The study seeks to deepen the understanding of how young consumers construct their identities by exploring the impact of two forms of nostalgia, personal and historical. Theoretical Perspective: To analyze the empirical data and gain insight into co

Climate change is causing unprecedented damage to our planet, requiring new tools and accelerated efforts to mitigate the adverse effects. Working time reductions (WTR) have long been proposed as a promising approach, yet first recently it is gaining increasing attention. The environmental effects from working time reductions, with kept wages, are however less studied. This paper adopts a qualitat

This thesis focuses on designing and prototyping a companion application for Xocchiali's AR glasses which are to be stylish, unobtrusive and cheap smart glasses designed to be used on a daily basis. The main goal was to create a user-friendly application that helps configure the glasses for everyday use. Additional goal was to explore possibility of implementing designed features on a microcon

Since its composition two centuries ago in 1824, Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony (Ode to Joy) has been heralded the world over not only as a great work of art, but also as a symbol of political importance. In Germany, it was lionised as the embodiment of a national spirit, first during the Franco-Prussian war, then as a prize of the Nazi repertoire; in Rhodesia, it became the national anthem of a far-r

The aim of the thesis is to explore the relevance and the values related to physical books for students in the library room. The thesis addresses questions of how students use the physical books in the library room and if the physical books are perceived by the students as a source of formal and informal learning and serendipity. It will also try to find out what impact physical books have on stud

This thesis explores how a blackout can be better managed using existing public transport company resources. The study addresses three research questions by assessing the feasibility of possible cooperation between local public transport companies and disaster management authorities during a blackout. Data from 14 interviews with experts from disaster management authorities, public transport com
