We live in a society that has changed rapidly in recent years. The Swedish welfare state identity consisted of structures that had been formed from an emancipatory project. Today, these structures seem to have been erased and replaced by a different form of society. When a society is changing it affects the political, social and economic levels.In this social change Social Democracy seems to have lost its hegemonic position in society and describes itself as standing in a crisis. An effort to modernize the party has therefore begun.

Människors val och beslut har alltid fascinerat mig. Hur är det möjligt att vissa beslut och val kan te sig fullständigt ologiska och oförväntade medans andra val och beslut kan man nästan säga är förutsägbara? Vad är det jag känner igen och inte känner igen och varför?  Är det för att jag tillhör samma kön? Eller är det för att jag är från en annan kultur med andra värderingar och normer? Har vi samma genetiska bas med identiska uttryck och förhållande? De dogmer och förklaringar som finns och existerar i vår närvaro rörande varför vi gör våra val och beslut har länge för mig känts som ett distanserat och främmande sätt att se mänskligheten. Därför har jag beslutat att försöka fördjupa mig i ämnet genom att titta på och jämföra några av de religiösa, filosofiska och naturvetenskapliga teorierna och där hitta en möjlig förklaring som kan ge mig en större insikt i varför jag väljer som jag gör och du väljer som du gör. Är det en allvetande agent som har betydelse inför våra val? Är det samhället och kulturen vi lever i som spelar roll? Är det mitt genetiska arv?.

The aim of this master thesis is to examine high school students? understandings and experiences of gender equality and to critically study the formulations and the basis of the project from Save the Children Sweden which are the basis for this master thesis. By using critical discourse analysis and gender theories the formulations and basis of the project and the interviews has been analyzed. The analysis of the project showed neglect for intersectional perspectives and taken for granted hidden opinions about masculinities and femininities. The interviews have been conducted with four high school students, and the students felt that they attend schools which are equal between genders.

Jag har i denna uppsats, med hjälp av Kenneth Burkes pentadmodell, undersökt motiv i Per Anders Fogelströms Mina drömmars stad. För att analysera framställningen av individens förhållande till samhället har jag även använt mig av Burkes identifikationsbegrepp och hans tanke om att syften bakom människors och karaktärers handlingar kan bottna i en strävan efter rening av en skuld vi bär inom oss.Genom att undersöka fem olika sekvenser, kronologiskt jämnt fördelade i romanen, har jag sökt formulera tänkbara motiv som ligger bakom textens budskap. För att undersöka hur scen och agent interagerar har jag använt mig av Burkes begrepp ratio, det vill säga förhållandet mellan dessa två komponenter i pentaden. Resultatet består i att Fogelström ämnar berätta historien om de människor som skapade grunden för dagens välfärdssamhälle, vars historia sällan belyses. Han beskriver ett förhållandevis obarmhärtigt samhälle, en agent, som tar beslut om sina invånares livsvillkor.

I will write about product placement in film from a Swedish point of view. This entails writing about Swedish films with different types of product placements, not only how they are done but also discuss how they succeed from a sales perspective. In my earlier work I have written about the product placement of watches. In this thesis I focus on the film series about the Swedish agent Carl Hamilton, since here you can see how Swedish film has developed during the past 30 years with regard to product placements. Both world politics and the concrete placements are illustrated in a clear way.

To be able to research the chain of development and its causes within military doctrines you need to describe the change and categorize it to make it understandable.This essays intent is to categorize a phenomenon within the Swedish doctrine to make it available for further research about doctrinal development. The categories are found in two of the great theorists on guerrilla warfare due to the subjects? resemblance to guerrilla tactics and its means.The phenomenon that is to be researched is directly translated as ?the free war? which basically means the use of irregular warfare behind the enemy lines. The description of ?the free war?, by whom and when it is used, are the factors that have changed during the second half of the 20th century, and have therefore been placed into different categories.
