The "Omnipresent" Consul: George Logie and Swedish entanglement along the Mediterranean maritime frontier in the 18th century

Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka den tidigare outforskade svenska konsuln i Alger, George Logie (1694-1776), och sammanflätningen av aktörer som var drivande bakom den kommersiella expansionen i Medelhavet efter Stora nordiska krigets slut. Expansionen resulterade i ökad handel med en infrastrukturell etablering av flertalet konsulat, vilket ledde vidare till utökat utbyte mellan Nordeuropa, Mede

Sources and effects of short-term environmental changes in Gullmar Fjord, Sweden, inferred from the composition of sedimentary organic matter

Den här studien undersöker källor och effekt av kortsiktiga miljöförändringar genom studier av sedimentärt organiskt material (OM) i Gullmarsfjorden. En sedimentsekvens (sedimentationshastighet 0.7 cm år-1) från den djupaste delen av fjorden analyserades i hög upplösning med flera olika geokemiska metoder applicerat på OM med fokus på komposition av biomarkörer. Fördelningen av n-alkener uppvisadeIn this study I will assess sources and effects of short-term environmental changes on the sedimentary organic matter in Gullmar Fjord. To achieve this, a high resolution sediment core (sedimentation rate 0.7 cm yr -1) was retrieved from the deepest part in the fjord and analyzed with multiple geochemical methods, targeting bulk organic matter and biomarker composition. The distribution of n-alkan

NEGOTIATING THE TERMS OF THE MIGRATION TRAJECTORY UNDER MIGRANT ‘ILLEGALITY’ - A case study of three unaccompanied Afghan minors’ journey from Afghanistan to Sweden

This study seeks to answer the question of how some young male Afghan refugees, in their own views, negotiated their migration trajectories on their way to the country of asylum, despite the constraints of migrant ”illegality”? To answer this question a qualitative mix-method approach was adopted, comprised of Participatory Action Research and Life History, collecting data through semi-structured

Embodied Carbon in Buildings - investigating drivers and barriers for the Swedish construction industry to address Embodied Carbon, and necessary policy support as deemed by the industry

Mitigation of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is essential for us humans to curb climate change. Around a fifth of the anthropogenic GHG emissions stem from the construction sector. Much come from energy used for space and water heating within buildings, but an increasing proportion comes from the manufacturing of the building materials and is virtually embodied within buildings. This is called Emb

Self-Governance in the Commons - A study of social control in Swedish recreational lobster fisheries

Most of the natural resources we rely on for our existence on this planet could in one way or another be a subject to overexploitation through tragedy of the commons. Tragedy of the commons occurs when rational individuals all acting in their own self-interest creates a situation that is suboptimal for everyone involved (Hardin, 1968). For long privatization or government control over a common wer

Cleantech Investments in Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden: Are they performing well?

The development of clean technology (cleantech) is necessary in order to address many prominent environmental challenges. However, financing can be a hurdle for the development of cleantech companies. Venture capital (VC) plays an important role in cleantech development. While the four large Nordic countries are regarded as performing well in terms of cleantech innovation there are signs that VC i

The River Flows Forever On: Landscape Agency in South-western Sweden, 550-1750 A.D

This thesis studies the interaction between rivers and human culture through a wide theoretical perspective combining the theories of Fernand Braudel, Jean-Paul Sartre, Homi Bhabha and recent “symmetrical archaeology”. While landscape archaeology previously to a large degree has been focused on phenomenology and studies of symbolic landscapes, this thesis tries to emphasise the importance of the

Internal venturing: Sponsored corporate spin-offs in Sweden

Quite a number of earlier studies have found that the majority of new technology-based firms are spin-offs from existing organizations, usually established in the geographical neighborhood of the parent (Dorfman 1983; Roberts 1991; Saxenian 1994; Sternberg 1996; Keeble 1997; Lindholm Dahlstrand 1997, 2001; Lindholm Dahlstrand and Dahlander 2003). Since established corporations are responsible for
