Dagens svenska vänsterrörelse präglas av motsättningar med längre teoretiska rötter, där marxistiska föreställningar konkurrerar med poststrukturalistiska influenser. Dessa premisser påverkar hur politiska projekt, gemenskaper och konfliktlinjer byggs upp. Ett begrepp som är förhållandevis nytt i den svenska kontexten, och som existerar i skärningspunkten mellan vänsterns teoretiska motsättningar

The housing shortage is a severe problem in Sweden. Too few habitats are being built. In the next five years 250 000 homes will be built, but it is still almost 200 000 fewer than what will be needed. A solution to the housing shortage could be that we live closer together. By making interviewa with people with experience of cohabiting I found that many people experience sounds and noises from the

Inflammatory bowel diseases as ulcerative colitis and Cohn’s disease represent significant health problems in the western world. Colon cancer is a common consequence of those chron- ic inflammatory disorders, thereby it is essential to improve knowledge and research level of this area. AOM/DSS is a known and well-established chemically induced mice model of coli- tis associated cancer. In order to

This study was done due to observed differences during production, involving the active pharmaceutical ingredient mesalazine, obtained from different suppliers. The aim of the present thesis was to make an investigation of previously not specified properties of mesalazine. This was done to enable adjustment of different parameters during production to account for differences in the raw material.

En fastighet är fast egendom definierad som jord vilken avgränsas antingen horisontellt eller både horisontellt och vertikalt. Vid förändring i fastighetsindelningen utförs en lantmäteriförrättning där fastighetsbildningslagen tillämpas. Om det finns ett hinder mot ny- eller ombildning av fastigheten där sökt åtgärd därför inte är möjlig kan en lantmäteriförrättning vilandeförklaras, om åtgärden sThe cadastral procedure is, in Sweden, led by a cadastral authority. If there is an obstacle to applied new division into property units, the cadastral authority can declare the cadastral procedure dormant until the obstacle is obviated if the new division into property is later expected to be allowed. This master thesis aims to clarify how dormant declaration is used today and how the implementat

The purpose of the study was to examine how the second generation Swedish Indians (I use "the second generation" to refer to the children of immigrants, born in Sweden) developed their ethnic identity while analysing their self-identification, cultural preferences, social interactions and daily practices. This qualitative study was based on ten in-depth interviews with second generation

Business intelligence (BI) has evolved from mere management reports to powerful decision-making solutions, analytics and rich visualizations that have made organizations to gain intelligence and competitive advantage. Many organizations have reported successful BI adoptions. However, there are also failure stories where managers and IT departments have faced undesirable attitude, reaction or behav

The contact prohibition act (1988:688) have the last years received a lot of attention in the media and have been criticized regarding its function as crime preventive. The overall purpose of this Bachelor´s thesis is to gain a deeper understanding of how perceptions of the Swedish contact prohibition Act looks from the perspective of prosecutors and employees of women- and shelter protection orga

Denna uppsats tar sin grund i användarupplevelsen inom mobil e-handel. Då elektronisk handel över mobila enheter ökat markant, i samklang med de smarta telefonernas framfart på mobilmarknaden, uppdagas nya möjligheter och utmaningar för e-handeln. Med en handel som blir mer och mer mobil, måste nu handeln och dess aktörer anpassa sig efter de nya förutsättningarna som tillkommer som en direkt följ

Denna magisteruppsats bygger på en översättning av cirka 6000 ord från den populärvetenskapliga historieboken The Northern Conquest: Vikings in Britain and Ireland (2007) av Katherine Holman. Uppsatsen inleds med en källtextsanalys som baseras på Lennart Hellspong och Per Ledins modell (1997). Efter detta följer ett avsnitt om överväganden inför översättningen, där bland annat den globala översätt

The Court of Justice of the European Union delivered three decisions on the 4th of May on the validity of the new Tobacco Products Directive; one on the standardisation of packaging that is obligatory for member states to adopt. The present thesis examines the measure to be adopted only by four member states as part of the implementation of the Directive. The United Kingdom, Ireland, France and Hu

Denna studie behandlar den komplexa karaktären hos snölaviner och hur de kan förutsägas, och därmed undvikas, vid navigering genom fjällterräng under vinteraktiviteter. Risken för laviner i skidområdet Nuolja, i norra Sverige, utvärderades genom en experimentell tillämpning av The Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) som är en modell utvecklad för planering och bedömning av lavinexponering. ModThis study addresses the complex nature of snow avalanches and how their location can be predicted, and thus avoided, when navigating through mountainous terrain during winter recreations. The avalanche risk in the ski area of Nuolja, in northern Sweden, was evaluated by an experimental implementation of the Avalanche Terrain Exposure Scale (ATES) which is a model for pre-trip planning and assessm

Denna magisteruppsats bygger på en översättning av ca 6000 ord ur den populärvetenskapliga boken Life in a Medieval Castle av Joseph och Frances Gies. Uppsatsen är indelad i tre avsnitt, varav det första avsnittet utgörs av en textanalys av källtexten. Denna analys baseras på Hellspong och Ledins (1997) modell. I avsnittet som följer textanalysen diskuteras den globala översättningsstrategin utifr

Protoplanetary disks consist of matter in both gas and solid form. The sizes of the solid particles, dust grains, although in minority compared to the gas, are important in the formation of larger bodies such as planetesimals. This is a topic which has been widely explored. However, the impact of the dust grain sizes on the underlying disk structure has not yet been as extensively modeled. Differe

According to many sources - such as television and science - the final frontier is space. And seemingly, one of the hottest related topics today are asteroids and their presumed promise of inherent wealth - or doom - depending on who reaches who first. The wealth is represented mainly by volatiles for fuel production and precious metals for technological development. The doom is represented by a p
