The purpose of this essay is to examine how two nonfiction books for children in the category sexual education from Sweden portrays gender and sexuality. Norman Fairclough’s critical discourse analysis is the method of choice, where the nonfiction books are seen as part of a discourse in which language is not neutral. The analysis is based on Judith Butler’s theories on the heterosexual matrix and

Majorana bound states can be created at the ends of semiconducting nanowires using a combination of proximity-induced superconductivity, spin-orbit coupling and a magnetic eld. By adding a Josephson junction to this nanowire, four Majorana bound states can exist at the same time in the system. In this thesis I aim to examine the impact that the barrier in Josephson junctions has on the energy stat

Hur mår Europas befolkning och hur mår den i framtiden? Går det att förutspå var och varför välbefinnandet kan komma att ändras, så att eventuella problem kan förutses och åtgärdas? EU tar befolkningens välbefinnande, eller livskvalitet, på stort allvar och mätningar utförs regelbundet för att ge beslutsfattare ett mått på hur väl den sociala och ekonomiska politiken fungerar. Makroekonomiska storBoth within the EU and within other regions/countries, there is a need to measure and monitor the well-being/Quality of Life (QoL) of people, in order to identify, anticipate, and address potential social or economic problems, at national and regional levels. This study presents a model to quantitatively estimate the spatial well-being (QoL) distribution across the EU-28 member states down to the

As populations and cities grow, spatial planning is crucial. As the planned environment becomes more and more complex, so does managing risk and experts within the field are still debating how this is best done.
