Denna undersökning är en kritisk textanalys av fem nyhetsartiklar skrivna av Nathan Shachar, Dagens Nyheters utrikeskorrespondent i Mellanöstern. Analysen är en undersökning av hur ansvar, här undersökt i termer av ergativitet, fördelas mellan parterna Hamas och Israel. Syftet med analysen är att ta reda på om en part tillskrivs mer ansvar än den andra för den pågående konflikten i området. Resultatet visar att Hamas i texterna är en drivande och påverkande deltagare, dubbelt så ofta som Israel. Hamas är också utsatt för påverkan dubbelt så många gånger som Israel.

Presently environmental and ethical matters are in the centre of attention and companies producing sustainability reports have become more common. It has also started to become more and more ordinary to assure these sustainability reports by an external part. However, the amount of assured sustainability reports differs a lot between different countries.There can be several reasons for why the companies chose to get the sustainability report assured. Previous studies state that the choice to produce sustainability reports can be re-lated to theories like the legitimacy theory, stakeholder theory and the Agent theory. Other aspects that can affect the decision to construct a sustainability report can according to prior studies be different company characteristics and the national culture in the country in which the company is operating.
