Att analysera kvalitativt material

I detta kapitel behandlas analys av kvalitativt material, det vill säga det arbete i forskningsprocessen som brukar intensifieras efter att det empiriska materialet är insamlat. Vi belyser tre grundläggande arbetssätt för att skapa samhällsvetenskapliga analyser: att sortera, att reducera och att argumentera. Det rör sig om tre handlingar som bemöter tre problem och försöker gör dem hanterbara. At

Safe Manual Control of the Furuta Pendulum

This paper deals with the manual control of unstable systems, subject to control signal saturation. In particular we consider the Furuta pendulum, where the problem is to control the orientation of the arm manually while stabilizing the inverted pendulum. This paper presents an analysis which leads to an insight into the problem as well as the control strategy. This control strategy has been imple

Within a modern legitimacy paradigm of moral education, autonomy has traditionally been ascribed a legitimating function in relation to moral education. Moral education is thought to be legitimate as long as it is conceptualized and practised as aiming towards autonomy. The normative relation arising between autonomy and moral education is thereby expressed in the pedagogical paradox, based on a p
