Development and international relations discourses have for a long-time represented women through dichotomous portrayals, either as liberated Western women or as oppressed Eastern women. The former being the heroic saviour of the latter. The subject of Western women joining the Islamic State, has not only received extensive media attention but proved the dichotomous portrayals of women to be insuf
Den här studien uppstod ur behovet av studier om kompositionsundervisning på högre nivå. Syftet var att undersöka hur lärarens och elevernas roller gestaltar sig i en kompositionsutbildning på en folkhögskola. Frågeställningarna berörde aspekter som roller och funktioner hos lärare och praxisgemenskap samt återkoppling och gestaltning av kompositionsprocesser. För att studera dessa perspektiv har This study arose from the need for more studies on the teaching of musical composition at higher levels. The purpose was to examine how the roles of the teacher and the students take shape in a course of musical composition at a Swedish folk high school. Aspects studied include the roles and functions of the teacher and the community of practice, as well as the shaping of compositional processes a
User-generated social media content has been increasingly used in mainstream news. This essay aims to examine how Bana Alabed's narrative has been framed in mainstream news and if the framing reflects power relations in mainstream news. The case used in this essay is Bana Alabed's narrative of living in Aleppo during the Syrian civil war. It will be examined how the narrative appears in th
The field of Ecologically Unequal Exchange (EUE) demonstrates how contemporary trade is based on time-space appropriation, from which the North owe the South an ecological debt. EUE researchers argue that free trade under the capitalist world-system reinforces the extractions and hinders ‘development’ of the south. To investigate the discrepancy between EUE findings and the European Unions notion
Västbanken i Israel-Palestina regionen har varit en konfliktzon i flera decennier där människor idag befinner sig under administrering och ockupation. Spänningar finns fortfarande i området när bosättningar ökar. Uppsatsen tittar på hur olika aktörer argumenterar kring och huruvida ockupationen bör uppfattas som rättfärdig eller orättfärdig i relation till internationella traktat som Universal Dec
The purpose of conducting this study was to analyze how forced expropriations and the demolitions of informal settlements could fall under the umbrella of “climate change adaptation” measures. Using an actor-network lens and translation theory, these translations are systematically broken down between three distinct levels: global discourse, national discourse, and implementation. As the idea of a
Renewable energy pursuit and implementation are undoubtedly one of the most important steps in sustainable development across the globe. So far there are several developed high-income countries in the world, that have replaced their fossil fuel-powered electricity systems for renewable energy technologies, however, most of the world still relies on non-renewable energy sources. This research will
Early career people are under represented when it comes to understanding their experiences with work-life balance. Graduate programmes in Sweden are an incubator for recent university graduates to enter the workforce and accelerate their careers. Combining those two aspects, this study aims to explore and understand if work-life balance is present and important to early career people enrolled in g
Women’s representation and participation in the forming of peace agreements are argued to have a positive impact on peace. This paper contributes to a deeper understanding of the necessary preconditions for securing women’s representation at the negotiation table. Through a comparative study in which feminist theory is applied to three cases (Liberia, Nepal, and Colombia) that experienced differen
Since the mass protests erupted in early 2011 has the Arab Spring been the central focus for studies from various approaches. This study seeks to contribute to the understanding of the Arab Spring from the perspective of democratisation theory. More specifically, the study analyses the case of the Arab Spring as a set of paths determined by the interplay of class actors. In doing so, the study fol
Early 2020 saw the publishing of the European Union’s new Africa Strategy. With a focal point on fostering economic growth, the strategy coalesces around increasing the confidence of international financiers to partake in investing into Africa. This thesis operationalises a framework on financialization to critically investigate ways in which the EU’s investment-led strategy advances financializat
In recent years, the notion that Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) schemes enable corporations to assume a role of a development agent has been heavily contested in academia. Among CSR schemes are the International Finance Corporation’s (IFC) Performance Standards, which, regardless of their foundational role in shaping the paradigm of responsible business, are yet to be exposed to thorough ac
The thesis examines the concept of the activity-based workplace in relation to different professions. The activity-based workplace is a type of working environment, designed to help the employees execute their tasks in a setting dovetailed for this specific task. Presumably, different work tasks demand different prerequisites and consequently, different professions have different needs. The thesis
Ett centralt problem i skogsbruket är att balansera mål för natur och produktion. Den avvägningen är inte bara viktigt på beståndsivå, utan det är även viktigt för att tänka på biologisk mångfald och ekosystemtjänster på landskapsnivå. I Sverige, har privata skogsägare ett eget ansvar för skogsbruk, och dem tar beslut om skötsel främst på fastighets- eller beståndsnivå. I skogsbruket sker idag natA central tension within forestry is balancing timber production and nature. This tradeoff is important when managing individual stands, but also has effects on biodiversity across spatial and temporal scales. In Sweden, private landowners are officially responsible for forest management, and these decisions are mostly taken at the property or stand level. While ecologists increasingly try to enco
Great resources in time and money are being invested in crowdsourced intelligence analysis. The research community and intelligence community alike lack understanding of what motivates people to participate in intelligence analysis. Moreover, motivation to engage in crowdcreation platforms in general is poorly researched. The objective of this study is to explore motivation for appreciated partici
In industrial circles, in political parties, and in newspapers, there is seldom one reiterating issue that concerns the general public more than the situation of a national economy, as well as how to secure or to undo the practice of it. What is arguably one of the core principals of modern cultures, especially in European societies, not just being a nuclear unit in a bigger economy, but enacting
Climate change has been identified as one of the greatest threats facing our world today. The effects of climate change are expected to increase global sea level rise and the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events. This poses a significant risk to cities due to their high population density and economic, political, cultural and commercial activities. Coastal cities in low- and middle-in
Global climate change has brought more frequent and severe heatwaves which affect all areas of human life. Occupational safety and health of construction workers is one of the most severely affected areas in Asia and Africa, but also Europe. This thesis focuses on the most recent heat wave from summer 2019 and observes its effects on construction workers in the Netherlands, with examples from immi
Denna uppsats består av en studie av det amerikanska representanthusets underrättelsekommitté och en av densamma publicerad rapport rörande utredning av rysk inblandning i det amerikanska valet samt en replik på rapporten. Den huvudsakliga rapporten har stöd av den republikanska majoriteten och repliken av Demokraterna. Studien applicerar en diskursanalytisk metod på de båda publikationerna i syft
