I denna studie försöker vi besvara frågan leder en ökad etnisk och kulturell mångfald till följd av invandring till ett ökat stöd för högerpopulistiska partier? Studien samlar in data på populationsförändringen samt förändringen i röster på Sverigedemokraterna inom Sveriges samtliga kommuner mellan åren 2014 och 2018. Variablerna analyseras deskriptivt samt i en regressionsanalys. Vi finner en sta

Functioning as a core constitution for the global system, sovereignty is an important manifestation of discourse. This paper adopts a holistic post-structural framework and asks: how can global sovereignty shifts be understood? The answer is framed as a method for conceptualizing shifts, where we have been able to identify four concepts that each manifest those in different ways. They are: 1) Auth

The Australian immigration policy Operation Sovereign Borders is based on categorically denying access to Australia for boat migrants and instead detaining them in offshore processing on the islands Manus and Nauru. The policy has both been criticized by human rights organizations and seen as an inspiration for other countries. This essay looks into how the Australian state legitimizes this policy

Calls to implement corporate reforms in South Korea reached its apex with the strong public outrage at 2016 Presidential corruption scandal involving the largest business groups within the country. In 2017, the newly elected President Moon Jae In promised to achieve corporate reforms that past administrations struggled to engage with. Considering the lack of progress in regulating unfair corporate

Abstrakt Titel: Sjuksköterskors och verksamhetschefers syn på kompetensstegen för sjuksköterskor inom offentligt drivna vårdcentraler i Region Skåne Bakgrund: Svårigheter att rekrytera nya medarbetare, brist på effektiv användning av befintlig kompetens samt att säkerställa kompetensutvecklingen utgör en stor utmaning för vården. Tanken med implementering av kompetensstegen i primärvården i Region

Linear multi-step methods have been around for more than a century now. But they were with a fixed step-size, where a lot of hand calculations had to be made to find the coefficients of each method separately. It is only recently that variable step-size methodology was introduced and built into the solver. In this thesis, we are exploring this new methodology and at the same time, implementing one

Syftet med uppsatsen var att undersöka utgivningen av svensk fantasy och science fiction för att försöka ta reda på hur genrernas spridning ser ut i Sverige. Undersökningen rörde utgivningen under femårsperioden 2015-2019. Vidare undersöktes ett antal bokomslag för att se hur typen av förlag påverkar utformningen när det kommer till kvalitet och genrekännedom. Analysen av utgivningen är en kvantit

År 2015 antog FN:s länder en agenda för hållbar utveckling som idag kallas för Agenda 2030. Agendan omfattar 17 globala mål samt 169 delmål som skapades för att världen över kunna uppnå en ekonomisk, social samt ekologisk hållbarhet. Dessa mål bygger på millenniemålen där syftet är att slutföra det som inte uppnåddes. Begreppet hållbarhet kan definieras på olika sätt och kan därmed uppfattas olikaIn 2015, the UN countries adopted an agenda for sustainable development, it is today called the 2030 Agenda. The agenda includes 17 global goals and 169 targets that were created to achieve economic, social and ecological sustainability worldwide. These goals are based on the Millennium Development Goals, the purpose of which is to complete what was not achieved. The concept of sustainability can

An energy-saving tool for rapid classification of bacteria When attempting to describe the characteristics of specific bacteria, it is important to know what species is under investigation. The 16S rRNA marker gene is generally used to classify bacteria into existing taxonomical hierarchies. However, a large percentage of the bacterial genome is left unconsidered as the ~1,500 bp of the 16S rRNA

Purpose: The objective of this research paper is to explore parents’ perceptions about gender-segregation when it comes to toys for children. RQ: How is the subject of gender and toys discussed among parents? Method: A netnographic approach was implemented and the site for data collection was Familjeliv.se. At the site were 10 discussion threads including 1 834 comments analyzed. Discourse was u

The following paper is a socio-anthropological study of the anti-feminist and victim-blaming rhetoric that characterizes debates about cases related to gender-based violence on Russian-speaking Internet platforms. The study approaches the topic with two main questions in mind, namely: what are the common arguments of victim-blaming on Russian-speaking Internet platforms? How does the anti-feminist

Quantum error correction will be integral in developing full scale quantum computers, but as of yet beneficial quantum error correction has not been demonstrated experimentally. An important question is therefore what prerequisites need to be met to achieve this. Results of density matrix simulations of the performance of the seven qubit Steane code in a quantum computing setting are presented. Th

The European Spallation Source (ESS) will be the world's most powerful next-generation neutron source. It will deliver a high-energy proton beam to the target with a high degree of control. With many components operating at their engineering limits, instrumentation must detect errant beam conditions and suppress proton beam production. One of the beam diagnostic instruments installed will be A

Since Patent Boxes’ first emergence in the 1970’s in Ireland their presence has been fiercely debated. Since their appearance they have grown in numbers and are now present in a multitude of countries across the world. From the perspective of countries and their respective government the reason to their implementation are the following: (i) to incentivize investment in R&D, (ii) to attract (or

Olika motiv kan influera individen till att vilja bli vegetarian, men däremot kan olika individer motiveras av olika motiv (Rosenfeld & Burrow, 2017a:85). Denna studie undersöker och behandlar följande motiv: trend-, sociala-, konsumtionskultur-, etiska- och hälsomotiv. En kvalitativ metod har tillämpats och empirin samlades in genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med vegetarianer i Sverige som

Artificial Intelligence has become a hot topic as improvements in available technologies previously considered science fiction, like image recognition, language processing, and self-driving vehicles, are becoming financially viable. Further, several studies point to how automation of processes will increase efficiency in a variety of white-collar sectors. The public sector is no exception, and the

Tidigare forskning tyder på att covid19-pandemin har haft en negativ effekt på demokratiutvecklingen. I denna uppsats undersöker vi därför vilka faktorer som kan kopplas till hög grad av demokratihämmande åtgärder under covid19-pandemin mellan mars och december 2020. Det gör vi genom korrelationsanalyser och multipla regressionsanalyser där vi analyserar stater med den beroende variabeln demokrati
