This essay will discuss my work in the interstices between art and cultural analysis. I will expound on how I’ve used a certain concept as part of artistic practice and cultural analytic research.

The concept is used to discharge imaginations about everyday life characterise

Strategisk kommunikation har länge förföljts av ryktet att vara omoraliskt, ofta använt synonymt med nedsättande ord som sofistik och propaganda. Forskare inom samhällsvetenskapen har tränats att acceptera denna beskrivning av strategisk kommunikation som en normativ utgångspunkt, genom inflytelserika teorier som Habermas diskursetik och metodologier som kritisk diskursanalys. Denna avhandling utmStrategic communication has long suffered from a reputation of immorality, often being conflated with derogatory terms such as sophistry and propaganda. Scholars in the social sciences have been trained to accept this moralizing idea of strategic communication as a normative point of departure, through influential theories such as Habermas’ discourse ethics and methodological approaches such as cr
Wetting and drying climate sequences and anthropogenic vegetation changes can have profound effects on the hydrological cycle and sustainability of terrestrial ecosystems. China contains many different climates, from humid to extremely arid and it contributes to the global mitigation strategies of climate change. China is also an important contributor to global greening and carbon sequestration. I
This is an experiment the perceptual differences between full and contractedsemi-modals in English, i.e. the distinction of going to vs gonna and (HAVE) gotto vs gotta.

Det sociala arbetets praktik handlar om att ge hjälp och stöd och förhindra exkludering och främja delaktighet. Socialt arbete handlar till stor del om att tillämpa befintliga lagar utifrån det tolkningsutrymme som finns. I varje enskilt fall vägs en rad individuella omständigheter samman med tolkningar av denna lagstiftning. Det är bl.a. inom ramen för detta handlingsutrymme som de sociala rättig
Nancy Frasers arbete är ett exempel på kritik som en rad teoretiker har riktat mot Marshall, och inte minst mot hans förgivettagande att nationen är den givna ram inom vilken medborgarskap, det vill säga rättigheter av olika slag, anordnas och tillhandahålls. Även om vi i dag lever i en tid av globalisering och världsomspännande migration där rörlighet är mer regel än undantag, så är nationalismen
Ett detta kapitel som behandlar sociala rättigheter i ett domstolssammanhang analyseras domstolars betydelsefulla roll när det gäller att uttolka och använda begreppet skälig levnadsnivå, som ett sätt att både omförhandla och utveckla rättigheter.
Det är viktigt att förstå att rättigheter kan etableras och utvecklas i en viss tid, för att i en annan tid utmanas, urholkas och ersättas av skyldigheter. Olika rättighetskategorier kan få olika tyngd i förhållande till varandra. Ett exempel belyses i detta kapitel, om de mänskliga rättigheternas framväxt i ett internationellt sammanhang. Bland annat behandlar kapitlet hur det kommer sig att ekon
