Sverige är ett mångkulturellt land och forskningsområdet kring hur det är att leva med två kulturer är viktig att belysa. Denna studies fokus riktas mot hur unga vuxna upplever kopplingen mellan den personliga och etniska identiteten. En kvalitativ undersökning genomfördes med 16 intervjuer. Respondenterna levde i den svenska samt en utomeuropeisk kultur. Resultatet visade att deltagarna upplever sig som en blandning av de två erfarna kulturerna och att den etniska identiteten upplevs som stark.

Anhöriginvandring har varit en stor del av invandringen till Sverige under många år. Men det är först nu som regeringen har valt att lagstifta om att de som vill återförenas med en anhörig måste också kunna försörja för denna och ha ett skäligt boende. Detta är inget nytt fenomen i Europa men Sverige har alltid ansetts vara ett generöst land när det gäller migrationspolitiken. Trots införandet av ett försörjningskrav så har det nya tillägget många undantag. Dessa omfattas inte av ett krav och många kan antas vara bland de största grupperna i det svenska samhället.

Den ekonomiska utvecklingen i Kina har varit snabbare än i något annat land och idag tillhör Kina toppskiktet bland världens ledande ekonomier. År 2001 blev Kina en fullvärdig medlem i WTO vilket gjorde att Kinas näringsliv öppnades upp allt mer för utländska företag och investeringar, men den kinesiska staten vill inte helt släppa kontrollen över vissa strategiskt viktiga marknader. Beroende på bransch, verksamhet eller etableringsform är förutsättningarna olika. Det finns alltså många specifika faktorer och förhållanden som kan skapa möjligheter eller problem för företag som skall etablera sig i Kina. Syftet med den här studien är att synliggöra just de specifika möjligheter och problem som finns på den kinesiska marknaden och hur svenska företag som har valt att etablera sig i Kina upplever dessa..

Companies that sell digital products such as software and movies transfer large amounts of data to its customers. In order to send this amount of data using FTP or HTTP and still maintain a high speed transfer rate it is required that the company have a large number of servers and a huge bandwidth. Servers and bandwidth costs money which means they have great costs on the distribution of their products. In order to reduce distribution costs, P2P technology can be used and the most powerful technology to transmit popular files is called BitTorrent.BitTorrent requires users to share their bandwidth. Nowadays, BitTorrent is frequently used to transfer products that are free of charge; one example is the Linux distribution Ubuntu.

The Work has been performed to, and in cooperation with Vetlanda Energi och teknik AB.District heating for commercial purpose started in the USA in 1877. Today the network has grown into big and complex systems, which demand maintenance and service to keep up the security of the delivery. When a district heating network expand, it becomes difficult to perform reliable calculations. For this purposes there are a few suppliers who design and deliver systems for documentation and calculation of district heating networks.Vetlanda Energi och Teknik AB is in the position where they must get a system for documentation and calculation for district heating, and therefore they need a basis to get a system. The target is to write a requirement specification that will follow the basis.The Swedish market has been inventoried, and suitable systems have been selected.

An introduction to the complexity which surrounds the matters of land in the northern parts of Sweden was the purpose of this thesis. The agriculture colonization, the delimitation and the development of forestry and mining business were big events which are shown from the view of property rights. The situation of the Lappish people and how their situation has changed through the history was the main theme of the thesis. Hopefully this thesis will also serve as a support while reading for example investigations published by the government and judgments by courts. Supply to the resources of nature has always been decisive for the survival of humans.

Does the country people live in affect the probability of them experiencing happiness? Can a country variable in an ordinal regression model be affected when microeconomic and macroeconomic factors are added to the model? The possible outcomes are either that the country variable affects less when the additional predictors are added to the model, or that they stay the same. The micro data is collected from the European Social Survey database, the macro data is collected from the World Bank. The country variable becomes less substantial when additional variables are added to the model. The variable with the most influence over expected happiness apart from the country variable is whether the individual often socializes with friends or not.

In this bachelor essay an attempt is done, to recreate a probable Bronze Age landscape on Gotland, with GIS as a tool. The landscape on Gotland is situated with many different monuments dated Bronze Age, such as cairns and stone ships. In creating of the maps, two possible shorelines contemporary with the Bronze Age have been calculated and marked on the maps. Furthermore, peat lands have been drawn upon the maps, by using the information from geological maps.A landscape variable have been compared between Bronze Age places and Early Iron Age houses; the soil type. On Bronze Age places gravel is the most common, while moraine marl is the most common on places with Early Iron Age houses.From a selection that were made, all Bronze Age places where within 3 km from the water, either the recreated shoreline or peat land.

Title: ?...baby, I´m the worrying kind.? - A quantitative analysis of the relation between TV news consumption and worry of crime.Authors: Maria Askerfjord Sundeby and Jennifer RochetteYear: Autumn 2014Level: Bachelor degreeDepartment: Department of Journalism, Media and Communication, Göteborgs universitet.Supervisor: Adam ShehataSummary: The aim of this thesis is to analyze the relations between worry of crime, both societal and personal, and consumption of news from the Swedish TV-channels SVT (public service) and TV4 (commercial). The cultivation theory claims that it is just the amount of TV that shows an effect on consumers and their perception of reality, like for example the mean world syndrome. But the theory has been criticized for not considering the possible effects that are actually related to other variables. These variables have weakened or totally eliminated the effects, previously explainedby TV, in later control studies of the cultivation theory.

Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka om kvinnor i Roslagens ytterskärgård haft en högre ställning än kvinnor på fastlandet. Frågeställningarna har kretsat kring kön och kompetens.Materialet som använts är kvalitativa intervjuer, personliga anteckningar, minnen och dagboksutdrag där skärgårdsbornas egna berättelser har varit i centrum. Med hjälp av en metod kallad snöbollsmetoden har materialet samlats i samspel med informanterna där ?det ena gett det andra? likt en snöboll som växer ju längre den rullar. Metoden tillsammans med teoretiska utgångspunkter som intersektionalitet och genussystemet har legat till grund för den etnografiska skrivprocess som också varit en stor del av analysarbetet.Resultatet visar att kvinnor i skärgården har haft en högre ställning än kvinnor på land, troligen främst på grund av att den särskilda skärgårdskompetens, som barn på öar fått då de växt upp, varit oumbärlig för familjernas överlevnad såväl ekonomiskt som fysiskt.Nyckelord: kvinnor,.
