Uppsatsens mål är att utifrån ett feministiskt och postkolonialt perspektiv belysa den diskursiva konceptualisering av integration som artikuleras i jämlikhetskommissionens betänkande. Vidare är målet att undersöka vilka idéer om det svenska medborgarskapet som betänkandets konceptualisering av integration bygger på och ger upphov till. Genom att belysa och undersöka detta ämnar uppsatsen begripliThis master thesis in gender studies analyses how integration and Swedish citizenship are conceptualised in the official governmental report A Common Concern (SOU 2020:46), written by the Commission on Equality. Feminist and postcolonial theories on citizenship and belonging are used in combination with previous research on Swedish integration politics and inequalities in the welfare state. Norman

There have been several theories conducted regarding the relationship between digitalization level and environmental sustainability process concerning the small and medium sized enterprises. Although there are multiple studies conducted on this gap, there is still room for new studies to shrink the gap in knowledge about this topic. This degree project has collected primary data by conducting qual

Hemlig övervakning är något som myndigheter uppskattar i sitt arbete mot brottslighet, men den kan även vara problematisk då den hamnar i konflikt med det grundläggande fri- och rättigheter som omfattar skyddet av den enskildes integritet. Bakgrunden i uppsatsen redogör för den personliga integriteten med koppling till lagar om tvångsmedel och därefter presenteras maktteorin utifrån Foucaults makt

Consumption levels during the year 2020 will be compared to year 2019 in order to distinguish a potential pattern of change. Theoretical framework: The study is based on consumption theory,

The purpose of this thesis is to use social data in the form of Google Trends for companies listed on the S&P 100 to see if they contain information that allows us to predict future returns in the stock market. Using econometric models and trading strategies, the predictive power of Google Trends is investigated both if it can predict future stock returns but also if this knowledge can be used

The aim of this study is to examine correlations between affects and stimulus concerning gaming addiction. The purpose of this is to increase the understanding of gaming addiction for better treatment from social workers. In recent years gaming addiction has become a more common affliction. New ways to consider this affliction is required for better treatment from therapists and social workers. Th

This paper investigates whether the convention about wealth distribution in an M&A deal holds true for Acquirers of TMT-sector companies in Russia. The convention can be formulated as: In an M&A deal, bidders earn nothing, while targets enjoy wealth increase on average. The wealth effect on acquirers is measured by means of event study approach. The central tendencies of abnormal return an

Arbetet ämnar till att undersöka eventuella samband mellan fordonsdata och förseningsdata för att fastställa om fordonsdata kan användas för att förutse förseningar. Fordonsdata som genererats till följd av behov för kontrollundersökning, i.e. felkoder, har kombinerats med förseningsdata från Stockholms pendeltåg mellan 2017-01-01 och 2018-12-08. Statistiska beräkningsmetoder har använts för att aThis thesis intends to investigate possible connections between vehicle data and delay data to determine whether vehicle data can be used to predict delays. Vehicle data generated as result of the need for inspection, that is, event codes, has been combined with delay data from Stockholm’s commuter trains between 2017 -01-01 and 2018-12-08. Statistical calculation methods were used to determine po

Denna studie undersöker hur landsbygden och framförallt hur lantbrukare förhåller sig till begreppet hållbart utifrån deras position i samhället. Lantbrukarnas inställning till hållbara praktiker kommer att lyftas fram i ljuset genom analyser av normsammansättning, klassanalys, centrum-och periferrelationer och analyser utifrån risk och skuld ur ett kulturteoretiskt perspektiv.

This thesis evaluates the effect of Chinese Foreign direct investment (FDI) on exports and imports for the five African countries: Angola, Nigeria, South Africa, Zambia and Zimbabwe using the gravitational model. The gravitational model will analyze how both inward FDI investments and Chinese investments impact import and export by using a sample of 166 partner countries over the period 2003-2012.

Unemployment and long-term unemployment is a recurring topic that is discussed in public debates. The recurring question is how society should solve this problem. But how and why is long-term unemployment considered a social problem? This essay aims to investigate two municipal labor market projects aimed at the long-term unemployed. The material was obtained from the City of Malmö's Labor and

Trollsländors metabolism ger svar på djurs utveckling Ett djurs energibehov Alla djur förbrukar energi för att kunna växa, reproducera sig och överleva. Eftersom energi är en begränsad resurs är vi tvungna att noggrant fördela den till olika konkurrerande energikrävande behov. Energi för livsnödvändiga processer prioriteras i jämförelse med icke-livsnödvändiga processer som till exempel reprodukt

In this work simulations of the LIBAF Pelletron were performed to gain insight into the parameters that govern the machine operation and control. Three simulation packages: COMSOL, WARP and TURTLE/TRANSPORT were employed, and cross-validation of these software packages was performed by test-case simulations. The major components of the Pelletron were simulated on a individual basis to ensure their

How mice avoid diseases, a measure of divergence The response we have to diseases vary from person to person. In much the same way diseases affect and are battled in many different ways depending on the species. This happens due to differences in their immune system. So, what causes these differences? Well, they are mostly caused by differences in the DNA, the molecule which has the code for ever

Power consumption has become a leading concern for SoC aimed at 5G products that demand increased functionality, smaller form factors, and low energy footprint. For some EMCA IP blocks a hierarchical clock gating mechanism ensures coarse-grained power savings based on actual processing need but for many blocks this approach cannot be employed. This implies that these blocks have to rely on a high

This project aims to design a radial inflow microturbine that will be part of a system to generate both heat and electricity. Considering the specific power and the mass flow rates involved with the system, a radial inflow turbine was chosen. This type of turbine provides much larger power density in a single stage compared to the other types.

This study has examined the relationship between the increase in consumption of white snus among Generation Z in Sweden and the branding strategies used by the nicotine brand LYFT. The purpose of this research has been to gain an understanding of how a brand can market a regulated product to a young consumer segment by conducting strategic communication prefered by these young individuals. The bac

Förändrat uttryck av den muterade immunförsvars-genen TLR2 kan bidra till ökad resistens mot borrelia – en studie på immunförsvaret hos vilda gnagare Skogssorkar (Myodes glareolus) och andra vilda gnagare utgör de huvudsakliga bärarna av bakterien Borrelia afzelii. Dessa bakterier kan orsaka sjukdomen borrelia och sprids vanligen från gnagare till andra däggdjur via fästingar. Trots att sorkarna
