Uppsatsen handlar om vad människor tror händer efter döden från förr tills idag. Syftet och den övergripande huvudfrågan var att undersöka vad människor tror händer efter döden för att kunna jämföra vad människor trodde förr med vad de tror idag. Den historiska bakgrunden behandlar vad människor trodde hände efter döden förr och vad människor tror händer efter döden idag. Tiden som behandlas sträcker sig från uppkomsten av den äldsta kristendomen fram till 2000-talet.  För att kunna få fram ett resultat användes två metoder, textanalys och intervjuer. Intervjuerna genomfördes med tre olika åldersgrupper som bestod av barn och ungdomar, medelålders människor och äldre människor.

The aim of this study was to investigate if a mechanical recruitment process could be a useful tool for employers to avoid discrimination. National and international law protect jobseekers from discrimination during the recruiting process. Despite this individuals frequently report that they are treated unfairly when they apply for a job. In line with this research shows that some individuals do not have the same opportunities in the labour market as the rest of the population. This study focus on discrimination based on ethnicity, age, gender or disability.Today most of the hiring decisions are based on employers professional judgement.

AbstractIn the beginning of 2007 the Swedish municipality Örebro decided to have a democraticexperiment, which ought to go under the name, ?Dialouge for the citizens?. Therepresentative elected politicians in Örebro tried to find ways to involve the people in theprocess of ruling. Why they choose to try this experiment on this very delicate matter, theclosure of several schools in the municipal, is one of the questions this essay is trying toanswer.The purpose of this essay is to find out whether the process was an attempt for the politiciansof the representative democracy to implement deliberative democracy in the structure of thelocal governance.The result of this study is that the politicians didn?t manage to reach to the citizens the waythey formerly had planned..

AbstractThis master thesis was performed at Scania transmission department in Södertälje, where the manufacturing of gears is done. Today a large amount of manual handling is performed between the machining and the hardening process. Most of the manual handling is done at the heat treatment department. The purpose of this master thesis is to give a suggestion on how to reduce or eliminate the manual handling at the heat treatment department. The possibility to use the same packaging throughout the processes will also be investigated.

The aim of this essay was to study the European Union?s (EU) role as a democracy promoter and its impact on Croatia?s democratization process. Croatia is a candidate country for membership in the EU which creates a possibility for impact and democracy promotion. The aim is met by studying the following questions:  In what way has the EU promoted democracy in Croatia? How did Croatia respond? To what extent has the EU contributed to Croatia?s democratization process?  Croatia is treated as a case study of the EU?s democracy promotion and the method used was qualitative text-analysis.

-1949 [26][upps-01.gif] The aim of this master thesis is to investigate how W.E.A. Workers Educational Association, took part in the great changes of society and in the modernizing process in the period of 1920-1949. The examination is based upon three journals of educational material that were connected with W.E.A. The question at issue is to show how the people behind W.E.A. aimed to educate and indeed educated the workers to modern people and moreso to see how the articles in fact were written and to analyse in what way they turn to the workers and get their attention.

Background: Every year, patients die while waiting for an organ due to the shortage of donors. When a patient is declared brain dead, the question of possible organ donation arises. In some cases, the patient is registered in the donor registry, but sometimes their stance on donation is unknown. The next of kin then become involved in the decision and are asked both what the patient would have wanted and how they themselves feel about donating their deceased family member?s organs. Aim: The aim of this literature review was to describe relatives' experiences of the decision-making process regarding organ donation after death.

Wavecraft AB develops medical equipment for heating of organic synthesises. The heating is done with microwaves, which improves the process in both speed and accuracy compared to the more traditional methods where heating elements are used. This report discusses the developement of an automatic lid mechanism for one of Wavecraft's product prototypes. The company assumes that the final product will be integrated by customers into fully automated systems, and the upgrade from a manually to an automatically controlled lid is therefore an important step in the product's developement process.The first stage och the project was an idea generation process. The ideas generated here were organized into five different concepts of which the best one was selected through the use of a concept matrix.

This diploma work has been carried out in collaboration with the building contractor Sh Bygg Fastighetsutveckling AB in Uppsala with the intention to investigate how the height of a building affects various energy aspects such as transmission losses, infiltration, and the specific energy usage. Three different reference objects have been studied. The reference objects have been simulated for four different heights in the calculation program VIP-Energy.The results show that an increase in floor number can lead to both advantages and disadvantages. As the number of floors increases, transmission losses per square meter floor area decreases. However, as the height of the building increases, the reduction rate decreases.

One of the main tasks of the Swedish Armed Forces over the past few years has been International assignments, which increased the importance of the Lessons Learned process. Methods of simulator training with computers have become more frequent and the technical ability to collect digital data from sensors has been developed as well. This work demonstrates how the experience of Lessons Learned can be communicated with the computer simulator StriSimPC and how modern technology in future support experiences from the Lessons Learned process at the tactical level in the Army.Currently knowledge sharing consists of several processes and strategies in the Swedish Armed Forces. This is done by written reports, oral presentations and different practical exercises.This case study shows the functions of the simulator StriSimPC, methods of training and how it is used today. The study also describes the future opportunities, where digital metadata acquired from the modern combat vehicles could contribute sharing of experience in the Lessons Learned process.The summarized conclusions indicate that StriSimPC can combine the two strategies for personalization and codification of knowledge transfer to reach a higher level of learning.

Bygg- och anläggningsbranschen betraktas som konservativ och trögutvecklad då liknande arbetsmetoder har använts sedan branschens begynnelse. Det borde finnas arbetsmetoder som är mer effektiva i förhållande till teknikutvecklingens expandering. En ny, men idag relativt oetablerad, arbetsmetod möjliggör att information integreras och samordnas i en interaktiv 3D-modell genom en hel byggprocess ? byggnadsinformationsmodellering (BIM).Denna studie har i syfte att för anläggningsbranschen belysa för- och nackdelarna med BIM som arbetsmetod, samt redogöra vilka hinder som finns och vilka åtgärder som krävs för en bredare implementering.Genom en fallstudie utvärderas detta via kvalitativa intervjuer med representanter för byggprocessens olika skeden. Intervjuerna grundar sig på en uppsättning av utvärderande frågor samt en konstruerad BIM-modell över ett verkligt anläggningsprojekt.Slutsatser som har dragits av studien är att utifrån de nuvarande arbetsmetoderna indikeras ett behov för effektivisering av samförståelse i projekt.

The thesis explores an ongoing dialectical process between different levels of employees including top management to workers of Scandinavian Airline Service (SAS) regarding a new change program and to find out the possible social construction among them. In particular, it searches for the constructed reality of SAS ground service employees at Malmö Airport with regard to the preparatory stage of SAS Strategy 2011. A possible ambiguity in dialectical process is explored as it relates to an organization?s ability to effectively influence the understanding and identity of its employees through discourse.

Detta examensarbete är en studie som syftar till att undersöka och belysa vikten av logistikens betydelse inom byggsektorn och dess nödvändiga tillämpning för byggbranschen. Ett annat syfte är att undersöka logistikkvoten i byggnadskostnad inom byggföretaget wäst-Bygg och jämföra de med att par andra byggföretag inom byggbranschen.Det finns studier som visar att det finns stora kostnader i byggsektorn som är dold i form av slöseri. I byggbranschen kan detta slöseri vara så högt som 30 % av produktionskostnaden, vilket skulle innebära att så mycket som 50 % av byggkostnaden kan vara rent slöseri. Studien (Josephson, Saukkorripi, 2005) visar att dessa kostnader kan sänkas betydligt mycket genom att fokusera på att minimera andelen slöseriet.Ett viktigt område där det finns en stor besparingspotential och förbättringsmöjligheter för den väl behövande byggsektorn är logistik och materialhantering.Byggföretag kan ha stor nytta av att veta sin logistikkvot i byggkostnad för att lättare kunna bedöma graden av slöseri och de kan även förbättra sin lönsamhet och effektivisera byggproduktionen genom logistiska rutiner.Om man hårdrar begreppet slöseri i byggprocessen, så är det ju egentligen lika med allt som inte tillför ett värde till slutprodukten ur användarens perspektiv. Men det gäller att se begreppet ur en positiv synvinkel och försöka hitta de förbättringar som kan ge störst effektivitetsvinst (Josephson, Saukkorripi, 2005)..

AimThe aim of this study is to through managers in eldercares deskriptions of the systematic qualityleadingsystem examine the implementation process of this system in the eldercare in the municipality of Halmstad.  BackgroundIn this paper the background explains elderly care and social work context, leadership in change and implementation processes. The theoretical frame illustrates Vedungs implementation theory and Webers model of bureaucracy MethodTo collect empirical data for this study, a qualitative research design was used in which eleven managers within Halmstads municipality home care management stood as respondents. ResultThe respondents highlighted a variety in the use of the systematic quality management system tool. The result describes that several obstacles were experienced in the use of the systematic quality system. ConclusionBased on the descriptions the respondents gives of the implementation process of the systematic quality management of Halmstad municipality home care management, the conclusion can be drawn that the implementation process has not resulted in the employees making use of systematic quality management in practice. The systematic quality management system that will ensure the quality of the care work is thus used to a limited extent..
