SAMMANFATTNING Denna uppsats belyser hur unga svenska flickor med arabiskt ursprung samspelar med andra aktörer i en svensk kontext genom användningen av modet, för att integreras i sin skolmiljö konsumtionssamhället i det västerländska samhälle som flickorna lever i, och de olika justeringar av identiteter, som sker i en. samhällets förändring För att förstå detta samspel beskriver jag med hjälp

The aim of this research paper is to explore how, and to what extent, the WIPO Marrakesh Treaty addresses the issue of restricted access to copyrighted materials by persons with visual impairments while securing legitimate interests and human rights of the central stakeholders; specifically, copyright rightholders and persons with visual impairments. In doing so, the focus centres on the compromis

Social kompetens har blivit ett frekvent använt begrepp de senaste tjugo åren av både arbetsgivare och rekryterare i urvalet av ny personal. Platsannonser fokuserar mer än någonsin på individens personliga egenskaper och hennes sätt att agera. Så har inte arbetskraven alltid sett ut och i och med denna uppsats vill jag därför studera de förändringar som skett både på organisatorisk och samhällelig

Since opening up their economy Chinese ODIs has started to be a large part of the country’s economic development. In recent years the share of ODI from China into the EU has increased dramatically. In this paper, an empirical estimation on the determinants of Chinese ODIs in EU is made. The date used for calculations are collected from different databases at the World Bank as well as at the Minist

Psychologists have until lately been rather likeminded when it comes to how the human brain is interpreting and processing different types of information. We react in certain ways when exposed to certain information but considering those reactions stem from experiments mainly conducted on Americans is not something that is considered to be of importance. Whereas these statements tend to hold true

Traditional basal-bolus and closed-loop artificial pancreas therapy for type 1 diabetes mellitus were studied in the present work and novel insulin delivery profiles have been identified. Type 1 diabetes is a chronic condition resulting from autoimmune destruction of the pancreatic insulin producing β-cells. Inadequate insulin secretion prevents efficient glucose metabolism and is a serious health

This qualitative study is based on interviews with four different voluntary workers. The focus on this study is young voluntary workers inside the organization TAMAM. TAMAM is a voluntary organization with a focus on helping children with their homework, but also bounding relationships between children with different backgrounds. The main goal with this study was to find out how young voluntary wo

Timer options are relatively new exotic options with the feature that they expire as soon as the accumulated realized variance exceeds a predefined level. This construction leads to a random time to maturity instead of having a fixed exercise day. As shown by Bernard an Cui [7], Timer options can be priced by solving a partial differential equation or by time-changing the stock price process and t

In this thesis we theoretically investigate quantum correlations and entanglement of electron scatterers through two coupled quantum dots (QDs). The interaction is described in terms of two-particle collisions modeled by two-particle scattering matrix. The correlation between the two dots is expressed in terms of density-of-states matrices. Wave packets are introduced into each system and for the

I uppsatsen behandlas unionsrättens påverkan på EU:s medlemsstaters inkomstskatteregler. De nationella inkomstskattelagstiftningarna får inte strida mot den fria rörligheten stadgad i EUF-fördraget, vilket gör att unionsrätten har stor påverkan på den direkta beskattningen även om den direkta beskattningen till största delen inte är harmoniserad. En medlemsstat får således inte utforma sin nationeThis thesis focuses on the impact of EU law on national direct taxation. National income tax rules may not restrict the free movement of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). This means that EU law has a considerable impact on national legislation in this area, even if the member states for the most part have retained their competence to legislate. A member state may, therefo

Green entrepreneurship – technological eco–innovations and ecopreneurs’ acts – has recently received much attention from European policymakers as one promising response to the challenges of sustainable economic development due to its potential to catalyze and build a low–carbon or green economy. This topical relationship between green entrepreneurship and sustainable economy has also gained increa

There is a constant need for the fire and rescue service to develop new methods, materials and extinguishing media to implement the most effective firefighting operations as possible while minimizing environmental impacts. The effect of additives in the extinguishing water is fairly unknown. In this report small-scale experiments shows that additives and fire retardants can provide a significant i

This Master Thesis contains the first stages of the development process of a system to study human gait presenting a final concepts. Moreover, the Master Thesis covers the vibration analysis of a real prototype based on the concepts presented. For the development of this project, there were almost no restrictions or guidelines. Hence, it was necessary a previous process of investigation and re

The aim of this study was to examine how implementation of MI affects the social workers discretion based on the requirements of evidence-based practice and on consideration of user perspective. The study was conducted with seven semi-structured interviews. A theoretical framework including Max Weber´s Ideal types of social action and Michael Lipsky´s Street-level bureaucracy has been used to anal

Uppsatsen problemformulering undersöker hur det visuella språket påverkar, inom det sociala mediet Instagram, personers identitetsuppfattning och interaktion i sociala sammanhang. Jag har undersökt problemställningen genom kvalitativa intervjuer och deltagande observationer av danska informanters bruk av det sociala mediet Instagram. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten vilar på Erving Goffmans begrepp I

In this report a method has been developed that aims to support identification of the need for verification through performance-based design of fire safety for different buildings, i.e. when prescriptive design is not applicable. The method is based on the idea that elements or areas of fire safety that presents specific challenges and problems for the building are those in need of verification th

De senaste åren har antalet sjukskrivningar relaterade till psykisk sjukdom ökat, och en stor del av denna ökning tillskrivs stressproblematik i arbetslivet. Syftet med denna studie var att kartlägga behovet av stresshantering på två mindre företag, samt att undersöka sambandet mellan självrapporterad stress och anställdas upplevelse av krav, kontroll, stöd och meningsfullhet. Tanken är att en såd

This study investigated how perceived social support may lead ostracised individuals to be more willing to participate in and recommend extreme action against a political cause. Furthermore, it assessed if rejection sensitivity, populism and social capital moderated this effect, and whether these variables are intercorrelated. The participants were asked to read an article describing the proposal
