This essay is about democracy and how a democracy index can be used as a tool to illustratethe gap between reality and ideal. The purpose of this study can be expressed by two researchquestions: Does the Economist Intelligence Unit's (EIU) democracy index illustrate thedistance between reality and the ideal of democracy presented by Dahl? and Can the EIU'sdemocracy index be modified by a) internal adjustments and b) using the variables includedin World Economic Forum?s (WEF) equality index?By using a combination of theories (Dahl?s theory of democracy, Rawls theory of justice andchosen theories critical to liberal democracy) as an analytical framework the following twoquestions have been answered:1) Which of the variables included in the EIU's democracy index have the potential to capturethe level of political equality?2) Which of the variables included in the WEF?s equality index have the potential to capturethe degree of political equality?By using a quantitative method the study?s third and last question has been answered:3) How strong is the rank correlation between the EIU?s democracy index and the WEF?sequality index, that is; how strong is the rank correlation coefficient (rho)?The data presented by the WEF?s equality index indicate that women are systematicallydiscriminated against as a group. From a democratic perspective the EIU may need tomeasure inequalities at a group level in order to capture the lack of political equality betweenindividuals. By reformulating some of the EIU?s variables, by revising the EIU?s point systemand by using the variables included in the WEF's equality index to extend EIU?s democracyindex, the chances of capturing the gap between reality and the ideal of democracy presentedby Dahl would likely increase..

This project is a study in how to represent the Swedish magician and variety artist Carl-Einar Häckner in a web-based environment. With a starting point focusing on illustration I wanted to produce a web environment that would function as a prototype for a webpage. My personal aim was to explore and gain new experiences from working in a digital interactive environment. I wanted to use animation and illustration to create an atmosphere and communicate emotions, and in the end find out a way of how to integrate that with a more text based content. The project is a personal project based on my interpretation of the work of Carl-Einar Häckner and an effort to translate Häckners expression and the emotions he evokes in his variety shows into image..

Syftet med denna uppsats a?r fra?mst att dokumentera min instudering av Carl Philipp Emanuel Bachs Sonat i e-moll fo?r traversflo?jt och basso continuo (H.551), som jag har spelat pa? blockflo?jt. Bach skrev sonaten under upplysningstiden och den a?r ett fint exempel pa? den nya stil som bro?t fram mellan barocken och klassismen, Empfindsamer Stil, med snabba karakta?rsva?xlingar och ka?nslobyten. Jag har reflekte- rat o?ver ma?nga aspekter av musikskapandet, fra?mst tempo, artikulation och dynamik.

The ambition of this project is to make an overview of the Swedish upholstery industry and to make a suitable complement to the Carl Malmsten upholstery collection.The Swedish furniture industry employs about 20 000 people in 815 companies. Totally the branch had a turnover of 17,5 billion Swedish krona in the year 2000. Of these 815 companies most of them are small family driven companies with low-tech industry. 10 % of the 815 companies stand for 60% of the production. These are large-scale companies and have a hi-tech industry, even compared with other types of industries.

In July 2011 the journalists Martin Schibbye and Johan Persson are arrested in Ethiopia when on a mission to report the activities of the oil exploration company Lundin Petroleum. Following a trial, closely observed by media, the two journalists are convicted to a prison sentence of eleven years. The Swedish Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Carl Bildt, is now to act on their behalf to preserve their rights as Swedish citizens. However, doubts are raised as to whether Bildt has a conflict of interest because of his former engagements as a board member in Lundin Petroleum.

This report was an outcome of a cooperation between ?The Visitor and Knowledge Project Carl von Linné? and SLU, the Swedish University of Agricultural Science. The aim with the cooperation was to create a garden and to suggest suitable plants for an orangery already built. All species suggested should have a documented relationship with Carl von Linné. The project is located in the southern part of Sweden at an estate named Möckelsnäs not far away from Linné?s birthplace.

This thesis was written with the aim of studyingthe volksdeutsche minority in Danish Sleswick-Holsatia (dan.?Sønderjylland?). The author has been using theories from Robert Dahl (amongother prominent political scientists) regarding minority activities in amajority society to measure inclusion of this minority. The thesis is a casestudy on a macro-political level. The result of this study was that thevolksdeutsche minority is indeed well integrated in the contemporary Danishsociety albeit with a strong German identity.

Hösten 1753 utlyste drottning Lovisa Ulrikas Witterhetsakademi en tävling där de deltagande skulle skriva om ett (eller flera) av tre ämnen: en historisk uppsats på prosa, en skönlitterär behandling på prosa, och ett ?Poeme öfwer Konung Carl Gustafs Tåg med sin Krigshär öfwer Bälterna år 1658?. Ett av de bidrag som kom in till tävlingen, om än för sent för att delta, var Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflychts bidrag Konung Carl Gustafs tog öfwer Bält 1658.1 Hedvig Charlotta Nordenflycht var 1700-talets mest kända kvinnliga författare och känd för bland annat Den sörjande Turtur-Duvan, Fruentimrets försvar och Tankar om lovskrifter över de Döde, men allt hon skrev har inte fallit litteraturhistorikerna på läppen. Ett sådant exempel är Konung Carl Gustafs tog öfwer Bält, som sågats ganska grundligt..

I detta självständiga arbete gör jag en omfattande analys av första satsen i Carl Philipp Emanuel Bachs verk Flöjtkonsert i d-moll. I mitt arbete har jag studerat kompositörens liv och samtid, gjort en teoretisk analys av Allegrot i flöjtkonserten samt analyserat min övningsteknik och med hjälp av relevant litteratur fått nya verktyg till själva instuderingsprocessen av detta stycke..

I denna uppsats undersökt vilka likheter och skillnader som finns i texter till barn skrivna av författarna Carl Michael Bellman och Magnus Uggla. Utgångspunkten är att med hjälp av tillfällesdiktens ramar jämföra ett antal av Bellmans dikter med varandra samt att jämföra framför allt vaggvisan med Ugglas text. Inledningsvis granskas texterna enskilt och därefter ställs de mot varandra..

The ability to fight is, according to Swedish Armed Forces Doctrine (MilitärstrategiskDoktrin), depending upon the physical component, the conceptual component and themoral component.The purpose of this thesis is to examine in what way the Swedish doctrine is based onthe theories on war and war fighting by Sun Zi, Carl von Clausewitz, Antoine Henri deJomini and Mao Tse-tung.I have found that the Swedish doctrine is based on those theories.However, the Swedish doctrine needs to be developed in order to better explain therelation between the three components..

Denna uppsats studerar och analyserar samspelet mellan utrikesminister Carl Bildt och journalisterna i tre medialt uppmärksammade intervjuer samt undersöker vilka strategier parterna nyttjar i dessa.I bakgrunden till uppsatsen presenteras begreppet politikens medialisering som är den process som förklarar varför journalistik och politik är så starkt beroende av varandra idag. Dessutom berörs ämnena medieträning och intervjuteknik.Uppsatsens teoretiska ram utgår från forskningsteorier om den journalistiska intervjun. Här redogörs för vilka normer och förväntningar som finns på en journalist och en politiker, när det gäller till exempel asymmetrisk turtagning och de diskursiva roller parterna intar. Teorierna berör intervjun som form för granskning, institutionaliserad interaktion, maktrelation och teamframträdande.Materialet som studeras är tre stycken intervjuer med Carl Bildt. I den första intervjuas han av Ulf Kristofferson för TV4 Nyheterna.

Is the Muslim Brotherhood a political force that can be able to push Egyptian society in to the process of democratization? We think that the answer to that question is yes, even though the movement clearly state that their main aim to create a democratic state, but based upon the Islamic shari?ah-laws. In this paper, we examine if the Brotherhoods? political platforms and ideas are compatible with the classic ideas of how a democratic state should be. We discuss Robert A.
