Den belyser även hur regleringen skiljer sig beroendeDuring the spring of 2010 the ash cloud from an erupted Icelandic volcano caused serious problems across Europe. Several organisations faced problems, for example stranded employees abroad who were unable to appear at work.

Det roliga och det allvarsamma, det privata och det delade - En granskning av gymnasielärares kommunikation med elever Kommunikationen mellan elever och lärare måste antas påverka elevers inlärning, och som en konsekvens av detta även deras självkänsla. Förutsatt att lärare förhåller sig medvetet till hur de kommunicerar med sina elever, torde deras uppfattning om vad som mest framgångsrikt funge

Då media spelar en viktig roll i dagens samhälle, och framförallt för demokratin, har det av många kallat främlingsfientliga Sverigedemokraternas intåg i riksdagen blivit en stor medial händelse i Sverige. Vår ansats är kvalitativ och vi har utnyttjat oss utav textanalyser, på ett urval av nyhets- och debattartiklar. Det är vår uppgift och syfte att undersöka hur Sverigedemokraterna, med sin ifråg

This paper describes the discourse of authenticity and the creating of identity through popular culture, using hip-hop, as a case to study. Based on data from how Swedish youth take in hip-hop through music lyrics, rapper stereotypes, the gangster rap subgenre and rap battles, it shows that including oneself into this culture can lead to changes in one’s identity and the redefinition of one’s pers

I set out to construct a valuation model for paintings using a newly created sample consisting of paintings sold at Impressionist and Modern art auctions at Sotheby’s between the latter half of 2003 until the end of 2006. I create a valuation model using the standard hedonic regression methods used by other researchers in the art market and describe a new way of viewing the dynamics of the art mar

Översiktliga miljötekniska markundersökningar vid förmodade punktkällor görs genom riktad provtagning, med ett begränsat antal provtagningspunkter som egentligen är för litet för att avgränsa en föroreningsutbredning. Men i de fall resultatet av en översiktlig miljöteknisk markundersökning leder till ett beslut om sanering, krävs det ändå att en bedömning av föroreningsutbredningen görs. I den härSmall-scale environmental soil surveys at assumed point sources are done through targeted sampling at a limited number of sampling locations which makes delineation of a contaminated area difficult. However, if a decision of remediation is taken due to the results of a small-scale environmental soil survey, the size of the contaminated area still has to be assessed. In this study I examined the ac
