Since Actor-Network Theory emerged in the mid-1980s, the approach has transcended disciplinary boundaries and has similarly gained prominence within geography. Moreover, also the main proponents of the approach have endeavoured in linking Actor-Network Theory to geographical lines of inquiry and sought to develop a spatial vocabulary that matches its distinctive thought system. However, few attemp
In an efficient market, assets reflect all available information. Hence, investors cannot earn abnormal returns by conducting fundamental analysis since all financial data is impounded in the asset. The only way for an investor to earn higher returns is by incurring increased risk. However, a growing body of evidence appears to contradict market efficiency and common notion of risk compensation. P

This research will study how the phenomenon ‘harmful practices’ is represented within the United Nations’ new framework: the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to reveal which practices are included and excluded from the goal. This framework has presented itself as being culturally diverse in its formation, strategy and application. In an attempt to capture this notion as a political goal and me
Studiens syfte var att undersöka sambandet mellan treåringars verbala förmåga, visuella beteende och minne i förhållande till en filmatiserad bilderbok med berättarröst. Syftet var även att studera betydelsen av delad uppmärksamhet på barnens visuella beteende och minne. Data samlades in för 63 barn som var mellan 33 och 48 månader gamla. Barnen matchades till två grupper. Delad uppmärksamhet operThe aim of this study was to investigate the verbal ability, visual behavior and memory in preschoolers, in relation to an animated picture book with narration. Furthermore, the purpose was to study the effect of joint attention on visual behavior and memory. Data was collected in a sample of 63 children between 33 and 48-months-old. Children were matched into two different groups. To operationali
The aim of this study was to analyze how people with the diagnosis autism, perceive themselves in proportion to other people. The intention was more specifically to examine if people with autism perceive themselves as different or deviant from other people and how they comprehend the relations to other people. The survey was made by a text analysis based on four autobiographies written by two wome
Kommuner ställs inför en stor förändring när verksamheten ska digitaliseras. För att stödja e-förvaltningsutveckling och digitalisering förespråkas Enterprise Architecture (EA) vara ett verktyg för att möjliggöra integration av äldre system, skapa interoperabilitet och minska kostnaderna kopplade till systemutveckling via återanvändning av komponenter. Relaterat till detta finns flera utmaningar d
Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera Fackföreningslagen och dess potentiella konsekvenser för fackföreningars föreningsfrihet i den kambodjanska textilindustrin. Utöver detta analyseras lagen i förhållande till redan befintlig nationell lagstiftning samt i relation till internationell rätt rörande föreningsfrihet. Majoriteten av Fackföreningslagens regleringar är oförenliga med internationeThe aim of the thesis is to elaborately analyse the Trade Union Law and its possible implications for trade unions’ right to freedom of association in the Cambodian garment industry.

During this bachelor thesis I have studied the potential to use meadows as a vegetation type in urban environments instead of the traditional lawn, or amenity grass. The task of this thesis is interesting as the loss of biodiversity is a serious problem for our society, not the least because it threatens many important ecosystem services. In this thesis I have focused on the role of real estate co
Människor är mer uppkopplade till omvärlden än någonsin tidigare, och i kampen att hinna med och vara uppdaterad används multi-tasking. Problemet är att människan inte är förmögen att hålla full uppmärksamhet på flera olika stimuli samtidigt. I ett försök att vidare utöka kunskapen kring uppmärksamhet utfördes ett experiment för att undersöka kostnaden i effektivitet vid dual-tasking. Detta undersPeople are more connected to every aspect of the world than ever before, and in our struggle to keep up-to-date resort to multi-tasking. The problem is that people cannot focus effectively on several kinds of stimuli at once. To expand further current understanding of attention capacity, an experiment was conducted to investigate costs in effectivity during dual-tasking. This was examined by mergi
Stray light is known as strong interference in spectroscopic measurements. With the creation of a novel kind of customized fibers, manufactured by the fiber optics group in Jena, Germany, a general experimental solution to this problem is possible. This thesis work is mainly aiming at testing and demonstrating how these fibers work for stray light suppression and their efficiency in measuring diff
Since 1st of June 2016, an amortisation requirement in Sweden applies, which means that new mortgages will be amortised to 50 percent of the value of the housing price. This was introduced when the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (Finansinspektionen) considered that there was a need to dampen the aggregated debt in Sweden and the purpose of the requirement was to increase household resista
Summary Problems arising in contractual relationships appear to be a common occurrence in most contractual relationships. This can either be due to the facts which the parties have not foreseen at the conclusion of the contract, or a result of a development of events differently from what the parties have expected. To be able to take into account all possible relevant circumstances at the conclus
Med framväxten av teknologin och internet blir det allt vanligare och lättare att sprida, samla in och behandla information. Organisationer använder sedan informationsinsamlingen till sin egen nytta exempelvis i marknadsföringssyfte genom att analysera individers beteenden utifrån informationen de lämnar ifrån sig. Den personliga integriteten har bland annat blivit ifrågasatt då många individer in
