Denna uppsats undersöker politiskt medvetna individers mottagande och tolkningar av humor i form av humoristiska medietexter. Mer specifikt studerar och analyserar uppsatsen hur personer med feministiska åsikter tolkar komediserien Family Guy, som innehåller skämt som personerna själva anser är sexistiska. Uppsatsens ansats är delvis fenomenologisk, i det att stor vikt har lagts vid att förstå

Some previous attempts to draw research on social constructs as if they are operating in a vacuum were missing some valuable information and could not provide deep insights into the matter. As this, contextual sensitivity, approach is not yet popular in network research, we adopt this stance to provide valuable insights into knowledge sharing in complex interorganizational networks. The empirical

Sammanfattning I Sverige råder ett strikt krav på konsensus när det gäller beslutanderätten vid gemensam vårdnad av barn. Detta innebär att vårdnadshavarna tvingas komma överens om princip alla frågor med undantag för den dagliga omsorgen vad gäller barnet. När vårdnadshavarna inte längre bor tillsammans efter exempel- vis en äktenskapsskillnad, finns samma samstämmighet dem emellan kanske inte lSummary In Swedish law, joint legal custody generally entails a strict requirement of con- sensus in decisions concerning the child. The basic precondition is that both parents must agree on almost all matters. An exeption from this condition can however be made in matters concerning the daily care. The housing parent has in these matters autonomy to decide. After for example a divorce, it can of

This paper identifies and analyzes paradoxes in perception of organizational crisis. Based on the observation of conflicting views on organizational crises that tend to polarize towards either threats or opportunities, we explore contradictions and interrelations in the concept. Our purpose is to reveal ambivalences and dynamics between the paradoxical pairs and thus contribute to a more reflexive

On the island of Gotland in the Baltic sea there have been many findings dated to the Bronze Age. These finds consist of stray finds, hoards, graves, settlement sites and different types of monuments (ship settings, rock carvings and mounds/cairns). This thesis is an effort to put those findings in relation to each other and analyze them with the center and periphery theory. The goal is to see if

Books and learning materials are often multimodal to their character; with content depicted in text, images, tables, diagrams and so on. This multimodality has shown to motivate students, improve retention and knowledge creation.
