Context. With the goal to accurately map about a billion of the Milky Way stars, the astrometric satellite Gaia was launched in December 2013. Its high precision and sensitivity will lead to better understanding of the Galactic structure and evolution. Also, it will be possible to probe the matter distribution in the Galaxy. Aims. To study how well the Galactic matter distribution can be determin
Möjligheterna och friheten att styra över sitt arbete i form av tid och rum kan uppfattas som lockande och positiva. Det gränslösa arbetet har också en annan sida, svårigheterna att själv avgöra när, var och hur mycket som ska arbetas. Denna studie syftar till att bättre förstå hur unga akademiker som arbetar inom ett arbete som kan definieras som gränslöst, uppfattar sitt gränslösa arbete. I stud
Med en genusteoretisk utgångspunkt kring genussystem, politisk organisering och backlash undersöker denna uppsats hur European Women's Lobby har bedrivit sin kampanj inför Europaparlamentsvalet 2014, en kampanj med syfte att förändra och förbättra jämställdhetspolitiken inom den Europeiska Unionens institutioner. Kombinationen av hermeneutisk och narrativ metod har fungerat som ett verktyg i a
Energy security and climate change are prime political concerns in the European Union. The main instrument to combat climate change through reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the EU is the EUETS, a cap and trade system. This thesis investigates in a case study the question of how the EUETS potentially impacts European energy security. In order to analyze potential impacts, this study operational
Today's fishery policies and development strategies form a global wave of enclosures. They displace small-scale fisher peoples and fishing communities from the fisheries and localities their livelihoods and cultures depend upon. With a case study at Lake Victoria Uganda this thesis investigates the role of capitalist rationales in this development. Theories on socio-cultural processes behind e
In this qualitative study the author examines the United Nations security council and its possibilities to reform, with help of George Tsebelis theory regarding veto players. The application of the veto player theory gives the ability to measure the policystability, the extent of ability to change policy, when adding more players to a political institution. The study is based on the United Nations

Current research shows that the number of workless people living in social housing is disproportionately high in comparison to other housing tenures. The aim of the Thesis is to examine the pathways into work available to social housing tenants, to better understand the phenomena of worklessness. Our object of study is that of residents within a social housing neighbourhood in Pennywell. A case st
In the last few decades, researchers have identified many systematic errors – cognitive biases – in the human mind. The predominant notion of human beings as rational have gradually been flawed, in one context after another. In the last few years scholars have approached the question of what policy implications should be derived from these findings and what solutions there might be. Three main phi
I denna uppsats undersöks i vilken mån den svenska regeringsformen från 1809 respektive den norska grundlagen från 1814 överensstämmer med Montesquieus maktdelningslära. Frågeställningen besvaras med hjälp av en idéanalys genom att de båda grundlagarna jämförs med en av oss konstruerad idealtyp av Montesquieus maktdelningslära. Vår undersökning visar att den verkställande makten i de båda grundlag

This work analyses mostly the role of the headmaster in the public and private school, and the balance of democratic and economical values – the public ethos. It also analyzes how governance affects the work of the headmaster and the space for acting between the laws within the institutions. Before the presentation of the used theories, the idea about New Public Management as ideal and background
År 1991-1992 upphörde Svenska Arbetsgivareföreningens (SAF) och Landsorganisationens (LO) representation i ett flertal myndighets- och verksstyrelser. Denna förändring befäste en långvarig trend av avkorporativisering i Sverige. I en kvalitativ intervjustudie med ett flertal arbetsmarknadsjournalister undersöks hur LO och Svenskt Näringsliv försöker få politiskt inflytande genom massmedia och hur
