Region Skåne has designated seven regional centers in Skåne: Malmö, Lund, Helsingborg, Landskrona, Hässleholm, Kristianstad and Ystad. These centers are to be, among other things, providers of key services. The aim of this thesis is to examine whether Skåne’s students have equal opportunity, through public transport, to benefit from the regional centers’ provision of gymnasiumlevel education. This

Demographic changes have created large youth cohorts in many developing countries. These large groups of young people are claimed to increase the risk of political violence according to the youth bulge theory, a theory that has been used to explain the outbreak of the Egyptian revolution in 2011. The paper uses a hypothetical-deductive method to test if the youth bulge theory can be applied as a m

Antibiotikaresistens är ett växande problem som orsakar både långvarig sjukdom och dödsfall världen över. Trots att man kan se antibiotikaresistens som ett säkerhetshot är det ofta förbisett i säkerhetsstudier. Denna uppsats gör en säkerhetsanalys över antibiotikaresistens, undersöker huruvida det kan inkorporeras i teorin human security och diskuterar olika lösningar på problemet. De specifika sj

The aim of this thesis work was to investigate and evaluate new possible industrial applications for large welded plate heat exchangers, with heat transfer areas of at least 500 m2. The research has been carried out through thermal design of heat exchangers for a total of nine cases. The nine cases are real-life applications for processes covering the petrochemical, oil & gas, power, and refin

We consider a technique involving Neural Networks in order to try to predict trends for cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum etc. In that respect the project involves construction, design and training of a deep learning Neural Network based on historical trading data for these cryptocurrencies. Subsequently we apply this trained network in order to better understand its ability to possibly f

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) give a vision of the world the international community want to reach by 2030. Businesses have been given a key role in delivering solutions for this end, but businesses’ engagement have not progressed as quickly as anticipated. This study seeks to (1) understand the state of integration of the SDGs among companies on the Large Cap of the Stockholm stock exc

De senare årens framsteg inom informationsteknologi och datahantering har gett upphov till allt mer avancerade och detaljerade sätt att övervaka det mänskliga arbetet. Denna uppsats ämnar belysa några av de konsekvenser en intensifierad övervakningskultur med elektroniska och automatiserade system kan medföra. Studiens syfte är att undersöka faktiska konsekvenser och upplevelser av en omfattande ö

This study focused on the experience of self-initiated Korean expatriated in Sweden. The purpose of this research was to examine and analyse the process of learning and adjustment to the new environment and specifically work-life balance. The theoretical framework was composed by cognitive adjustment theory and Berry’s acculturation model. The method that was used was qualitative research build on

Sexual minorities have been largely ignored in Japanese politics until very recently. The past couple of years have seen a change where LGBT issues have been brought to attention in both politics and in media. This thesis explored what impact these changes have on the lives of individuals, and the research was a qualitative study based on fieldwork in Japan and secondary sources. The study drew on

This thesis studies what triggers people’s environmental attitude using theories of the New Environmental Paradigm (NEP) and emotional affinity towards nature. Having looked at the case of a nature park in Kuala Selangor, Peninsular Malaysia carrying out mangrove rehabilitation and conservation, I also aimed to investigate the institutional interrelations and how these combined with environmental

In 2014, the sharia-ruled Aceh province of Indonesia legislated bylaw qanun jinayat no.6/2014, which criminalised same-sex acts, and imposed a caning punishment consisting of a hundred lashes if a person was found guilty. The law impelled a hunt and persecution of LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) individuals, thereby worsening discrimination against the already hampered LGBT community. T

From Nye’s famous soft power, a new international relations concept has recently emerged: strategic narratives, the narratives which different states use to promote their agendas in the international system. This thesis focuses on one particular aspect of Sino-Japanese relations: the understanding, characterization and possible implications of the strategic narratives projected by both countries v

I det här arbetet arbetar jag med frågor om vad som skapar gemenskap och tillhörighet till den plats vi bor på och de människor vi delar den med. Genom analyser och teoristudier kommer jag fram till några principer som jag applicerar i den fysiska utformningen i ett kvarter i nordöstra Malmö. Principerna handlar om behovet av att vara privat och att röra sig från privata mot successivt mer offentl

This study looks into Intercultural Bilingual Education among the Indigenous Peoples of the Andes. Using the policy as a vantage point it shows the interconnectedness of the different parts of a larger network of processes influencing it. Spring boarding of Foucault's second notion of biopower, that which concerns the regulation of the population, and the governmentality concept, the study con

Baumol in his seminal paper “Entrepreneurship: Productive, Unproductive and Destructive” offers the hypothesis that while total supply of entrepreneurs varies among societies, their productive contribution varies much more because of institutions in those countries. According to him, the rules of the game are responsible to divert entrepreneurial capabilities to productive, unproductive or destruc

The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between organizations, BI Consultancy, value co-creation. The study will examine how the managers use the advice they get from the BI consultants and the information they obtain from the customers to make products and services that are of value to the customers. To achieve this, the study will present an understanding of BI consultancy and v

En nätverkskamera med en näsa Dagens nätverkskameror innehåller i många fall redan idag flera sensorer utöver bildsensorer. De kan ta upp ljud och känna vibrationer bland annat. Utöver detta, kan en gassensor också vara ett komplement? Lågkostnadssensorer för gasmätning är något som börjar att sticka upp på marknaden och öppnar upp för många applikationer. De lägre priserna möjliggör även att de kSome network cameras have already several other sensors besides the image sensor to extend the capabilities of the camera. It is then only natural to think what can be achieved when air sensors are added into the mix. In this master thesis the applications of air sensors coupled together with network cameras have been investigated. Considering the network infrastructure is already in place, having

My work discusses how Gibe III is a Sustainable Development but is not sustainable. Along the river Omo are tribes and, unlike Gibe III which utilizes instrumental rationality to harness the flow of the River Omo for the production of hydroelectricity, they plant crops after the flow from the hydrological cycle floods the riverbanks with water and nutrients. I simplified Hägerstrand’s (2001) Syste

Detta projekt utreder hur en by kan utvecklas genom att ha turism som drivkraft. Knäred är en ort med cirka 1200 invånare och har haft en stagnerande befolkningskurva de senaste 20 åren. Det är besultat att den tåget återigen ska gå mellan Markaryd och Halmstad för persontrafik med up- pehåll i Knäred. Men genom att anlägga en järnvägsstatoion innebär inte per automatik att ett samhälle växer. FörThis project is investigating how a village can be developed by using tourism as the main driving force. Knäred is a villa- ge with around 1200 inhabitants that has had a decreasing population the past 20 years. It has been decided that the old train stop will be opened for passenger transportation again. But reestablishing a train station does not automa- tically mean that a settlement will grow.
