The study of the naturalization decision process have gained more attention in the field of economics and migration in recent years. This primarily relates to examining whether certain contextual and structural socioeconomic characteristics can explain the probability for immigrants of becoming citizens in their new country. However, there have been little research on this decision process in an h
Den här uppsatsen behandlar svensk nationalism i kontexten av programserien ’Allt för Sverige’. Med avstamp i Benedict Anderson teoretiska begrepp ’print capitalism’ diskuteras programseriens funktion som del i svenskt nationskapande. Följande argumenteras det för hur det finns en ambivalens för vad som ryms i konceptet nationell identitet i det moderna Sverige.
This research has been inspired by my interest in theater. I decided to explore the connection between the disciplines of media studies and anthropology of performance through the particular case study. The case is the Russian-Chinese pipeline construction through the sacred Ukok plateau in Altai. It threatens the environmental and cultural uniqueness of this area and small indigenous population o
I denna uppsats undersöker jag Scanlons värdeteori, med fokus på hans syn på intrinsikalt värde, och då framför allt frågan huruvida människolivet kan sägas ha intrinsikalt värde. Genom att först grundligt presentera Scanlons värdeteori – hans hänskjutande redogörelse för värde (eng. Buck-Passing) - och sedan släppa fram kritiska röster, resonerar jag mig fram till en grund att stå på i denna värd
The thesis introduces a range of communication protocols used to implementing smart homes currently available on the market. Two protocols are chosen and theoretically analysed in depth. The analysis both describes how the protocols works and describes the measures taken in order to protect it against attacks from third parties. The theoretical evaluation analyses how susceptible the protocols are
Is there a discrepancy between what employees desire their managers to be and how they perceive their managers? And if so, does this discrepancy affect their organisational identification? To suggest answers to these questions, using a deductive quantitative approach, we asked employees to firstly, rate the traits they perceived their current managers to have and the traits they desired in their m
Tara Mellquist Kan klimatanpassning användas som ett ekonomiskt styrmedel? Effekter av en klimatförändring i Stockholms län kan exemplifieras av ett förändrat nederbördsmönster, mer extrema väderhändelser och av en ökad havsnivå. Dessa effekter påverkar länets infrastruktur och bebyggelse, samtidigt som befolkningsmängden och exploateringstrycket i regionen ökar. Konsekvenser att ett förändratAs a result of climate change the county of Stockholm will experience a change in precipitation patterns, more extreme weather events and a rise in sea level. To learn if the financial sector works with climate change adaptation and if climate change adaptation can be used as a management control measure, a study has been conducted in complement to this thesis. Three subsectors, the insurance sect

Anaerobic processes are an interesting alternative to treat wastewaters instead of aerobic treatments as it allows recovery of energy with the produced biogas while removing organic matter. In the industry, lots of low-strength industrial wastewaters are available and unused for biogas production due to their low concentration of organic material and high volumes (slaughterhouse wastewaters, dairi
The purpose of this thesis is to examine how the increased use of the communication channels provided by Internet affect production and distribution cycles of the fashion system, and what the consequences this development will have on the fashion concept. It is crucial for all producers in the fashion industry to take this development into consideration in order to anticipate the changes that migh
The so-called “Healthy Immigrant Effect” (HIE) is based on two complementary hypotheses: i) immigrants who recently arrived to a new country present a better health than the native-born population with similar socio-demographic characteristics; ii) immigrant´s health deteriorates faster than that of the native-born and converges towards native-born levels with the years lived in the host country.
In order for Software Configuration Management (SCM) tools to provide good traceability links there is usually a great deal of manual effort required. The result is that data becomes unreliable, inconsistent and in many cases nonexistent. The main focus in previous research in this area has been to make general tools which can provide traceability between any type of configuration artifact in any
Smärta vid samlag är ett problem allt fler unga kvinnor söker för, och många studier visar på en utbredd problematik. Trots att många unga kvinnor söker för vulvasmärta, saknas fortfarande teoretiska modeller för de psykosociala mekanismerna bakom problematiken. Syftet med denna studie var att få ökad kunskap om agentskap hos unga kvinnor med vulvasmärta. Kvalitativa djupintervjuer gjordes med åttMany young women seek help for sexual problems such as pain during sexual intercourse, and several studies notes it as a widespread concern. Although an increasing number of women seek professional help for vulvar pain, there is still a shortage of theoretical models of psychosocial components involved in the mechanisms connected to the problem. The aim of this study was to examine sense of agency
Syftet med denna studie är att skapa en djupare förståelse för hur mellanchefer i flexibla organisationer upplever sin arbetsroll samt hur de arbetar för att möta de krav som ställs. Studien omfattar mellanchefer i flexibla organisationer, där bemanningsföretag har fått statuera exempel på flexibel organisation. Insamling av empiriskt material har skett via 10 semistrukturerade intervjuer, med t
I denna uppsats härleds och testas en ny omviktningsalgoritm med vars hjälp det nativa tillståndet av aminosyresekvenser, bestående av 16 aminosyror, kan förutspås. Algoritmen används till att kartlägga de neutrala näten av α-helixes och β-sheets inom ett kontinuerligt proteinmodell. För att undersöka omviktningsalgoritmens potential för att förutsäga den termodynamiska stabiliteten av olika aminIn this thesis, a new reweighting algorithm for predicting the native conformations of amino acid sequences, consisting of 16 residues in a reduced representation continuous protein model, is derived and tested to map neutral nets of α-helices and β-sheets. For examining the potential of the reweighting algorithm for predicting the thermodynamic stability of amino acid sequences, it is applied to
Först lite terminologi: Standardmodellen är en kvantfältteori. Sådana beskriver störningar i fält och dessa kallas för partiklar. Tänk dig svallvågorna som följer på ytan i ett badkar vari en sten släppts, fast i tre dimensioner istället för två, det är ett fält. Varje elementär partikel är en störning i ett sådant tillhörande fält (eller "kvantum" varav namnet kvantfält). Fälten kommer In this thesis top quark decays to a charm quark and a (CP even) Higgs boson are investigated in a general two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) allowing flavour-changing neutral currents. The theory behind 2HDMs is introduced and the specific choice of 2HDM is put to test under theoretical constraints that require the potential in the Lagrangian density of the model to satisfy vacuum stability, tree-lev
