After the #MeToo movement in 2017, a widespread feeling that women’s rights have gone too far has emerged in Western patriarchal societies.

This thesis examines the social unfolding of the recent deplatformization of the far-right extremes on Telegram.

The emergence of social media has changed this situation and helped Asian Americans to speak out. Anyone can publicly exp

Flytt i samband med renovering

Sverige har ett allt mer växande renoveringsbehov. Detta till följd av att man inte har renoverat tillräckligt i kombination med att en stor del av det svenska byggnadsbeståndet uppfördes under miljonprogrammet och rekordåren. Denna utmaning kommer samtidigt som hållbarhet står högt på agendan. Renoveringar påverkar alla tre stora hållbarhetsdimensioner, ekologisk, ekonomisk och social hållbarhet.The growing need for renovations is one of the key challenges within the Swedish multifamily rental stock. Sustainable development is essential and renovations affect all three major categories of sustainability, the social, economic and ecological factors. All buildings need to be remodeled sooner or later – the question is only when and how. With this in mind it is important to understand how re
