How audiences engage with news has not always gotten a lot of attention in academic and industry research; and, even then, it is often studied in terms of exposure and interaction. This does not fully capture the dynamism and multidimensionality of this phenomenon; and industry attempts to apply market principles to engagement risks depoliticizing and reducing it to economic values. Rather than po
Computer programming is historically constructed as a male domain, and the underrepresentation of women and other marginalised minorities is recognised as a global phenomenon in most countries of the world. However, limited attention has been paid to women who choose to enter this field. The lack of intersectional and cross-national analysis on the relationship between gender and technology remain
A large number of studies have explored the relations between unemployment and alcohol-related health, but so far there is no consensus among the results. This paper contributes to the literature by exploring how unemployment is related to overall alcohol consumption as well as to the rates of alcohol poisoning, alcohol addiction and alcohol-related liver disease. A fixed effects model is used on
Spurred on by pressure to find sustainable energy production alternatives to fossil fuels, many industries have been acquiring land in order to plant crops for biofuel production. In Tanzania, biofuel development is in an early stage, and over the last decade, several foreign actors have tried to start up biofuel projects in the country (without success). Land acquisitions are seen by many as a fo
Popular science summary: Climate change, and its effect on nature, is presently a hot research topic. Many studies have focused on the effect of recent climate change on breeding and spring migration in birds. Several bird populations have been shown to advance migration or breeding. It has been suggested that if they do not do this they might miss optimal breeding conditions such as peak food av
Regalskeppet Vasa är ett av världens största marina arkeologiska objekt och det enda välbevarade skeppet från 1600-talet. Det bärgades 1961 efter att ha legat på botten i Stockholms hamn i över 300 år. Tiden under vattnet och tiden på museet har utsatt träet i skeppet för många påfrestningar som har resulterat i en nedbrytning av skeppets trä. I syfte att utveckla metoder för bevarande och konserv
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Det aktuella arbetet kompletterar Karolina Bjärnborgs masteruppsats från 2009 (Examensarbete Berggrundsgeologi Nr. 240) i samma ämne. Avsikten med arbetet är att testa och styrka hennes resultat med ytterligare prov och analyser. Syftet med båda projekten är att bestämma vilka malmmineral som finns och deras kemiska sammansättning i en kopparmineralisering i Zin
Vertebratkoproliter från de yngre kretaceiska (Campan) sedimenten vid Åsen, en lokal belägen i den nordliga delen av Kristianstadbassängen, har här beskrivits och illustrerats med det huvudsakliga målet att bestämma deras värddjur. Deras fekala ursprung kunde bekräftas vid en kemisk analys, emedan de huvudsakligen visades bestå av kalciumfosfat, ett ämne intimt förknippat med koproliter. Fem exemp
Förbud mot karteller är likartade i de flesta länder. Om förbuden överträds är dock skillnaderna i de påföljder som kan utdömas, respektive i den eftergift som kan sökas och beviljas, värda att notera. Denna uppsats presenterar de påföljder för överträdelser av kartellförbud samt de eftergifter som erbjuds i EU, Storbritannien, Sverige och USA. Syftet med uppsatsen är att analysera vilka övervägan
This thesis attempts to investigate why and how MNCs establish appropriate CSR policies for subsidiaries in different countries. The aim of the thesis is to develop a model that reveals factors that influence the CSR focuses of MNC subsidiaries in different countries, and test the model.In order to achieve the purpose of the thesis, a qualitative deductive research design has been applied, based o
Vision Zero was introduced as an innovative traffic safety policy that has the eradication of mortality and severe injuries caused by traffic accidents as its final goal. The process of achieving that goal is through a set of measures, rules and regulations that change not only the way of thinking and acting of traffic members (and drivers, in particular), but also of car and road designers. Since
