Tidigare forskning kring klimat och identitet har framför allt fokuserat på hur vi kan förstå varför vissa människor konsumerar miljömedvetet, eller hur konsumtionen och identiteten hör ihop. Få studier har kopplat ihop just en miljömedveten identitet och den klimatsmarta konsumtionen, inte minst utifrån tanken om att vi lever i ett konsumtionssamhälle. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka de

The human rights regime and the trade regime set obligations on states that may create conflicts that challenge a state’s autonomy for policy and regulatory practices. To deal with these conflicts, we argue that states employ different causal mechanisms from Risse, Ropp and Sikkink’s spiral model when setting their commitments to, and executing compliance with, these regime obligations, and that t

Varför berättade du i så fall för just den personen på just den platsen? Varför berättade du inte för någon annan någon annanstans? Men den kanske viktigaste frågan – hur gjorde du när du berättade och varför gjorde du just så? ÅterberäThis thesis seeks a sociological explanation of how and why thirteen interviewees told and constructed the telling of their dreams, anecdotes and secrets.

För att förstå vårt ursprung och vår plats i universum, måste vi först lära oss om vår historia. Detta är en utmaning i många fält inom vetenskapen, och det finns ett antal olika tillvägagångssätt; geologer analyserar sedimentlager för att få förstå vår planets utveckling, biologer tittar på små skillnader i flora och fauna för att förstå utvecklingen av arter, och paleontologer undersöker fossil What effect does a collision between two clusters have on their dissolving time? In order to answer this question, a new type of N-body simulation using a double integration of a cluster was built.

For example, rare occurrences of natural disasters and weather events can have return periods of thousands of years but because of their large impact are very important to study. In addition to being used to study the changing climate, climate models have the advantage o
