Rättvisemärkning av snittblommor på den svenska marknaden :
Trade is the driving force for economic development. A greater equity in international trade can improve the livelihoods and the well being of producers in developing countries. The small-scale farmers have limited resources and have difficulties to get access to the international market. As a result of this, the Fair Trade movement has been developed and has now formed a trading partnership between the producer and the consumer.
This study analyses if the Fair Trade movement can be a way for the workers in developing
countries to achieve more justice in their production manner in the international trade of cut flowers and continue to be an important competitor of these products, but with better livelihood conditions. My method has been to do a comprehensive literature study of the Fair Trade movement, in which I describe the certification process, and the market of Fair Trade in Sweden.
Sekretessavtal : Kan ett sekretessavtal i kommersiella förhållanden som gäller för all evig tid jämkas med stöd av 36 § avtalslagen?
When a company is part of an agreement there is a risk that one of the collaborators pursues similar business and takes up competition with the partner or chooses to reveal information about their partner to other parties. To avoid this, companies establish a confidentiality agreement that prohibits the parties to reveal any information. Confidentiality agreements that are eternal have become more common in Swedish contract law in commercial relations. As a result, disputes between collaborators have occurred regarding the unreasonable length and validity of the agreement at a later stage.When a confidentiality agreement is considered to be unreasonable, 36 § of the Swedish contract law (AvtL) can be applicable. The paragraph deals with the legitimacy and the opportunities of re-adjustment of the unreasonable contract.

Epoxidised linseed oil as hydrophobic substance for wood protection : technology of treatment and properties of modified wood
Public concern about the release of toxic compounds from wood-based products drives legislation towards enforcing industries to find and use more sustainable solutions for wood treatment. Plant oils are good alternatives to treat wood, minimizing or even neutralizing the impact on the environment. Wood modification with epoxidised linseed oil (ELO) and acetic acid as catalyst has proven a suitable method to impregnate and protect wood. However, the mixture presents a serious inconvenience because of the quick polymerization of the ingredients that limits its practical application. Therefore, this study was designed to evaluate an alternative method using a two-step process which bypassed the problem above.
Hur påverkar förtätningen stadens grönstruktur? :
Urban density is not new, but rather one side of the continous processes of change underway in the city. During the urbanizing boom of the industrialization, when the cities grew bigger, the first spaces to be built on were vacant and planted areas in the interior of the district. The gardens that once were there were replaced by yardhouses. The idea of urban density is that a dense city means less distance between residential areas and workplaces, resulting in fewer shipments and travelers, which ultimately leads to lower energy consumption and lower emissions. Urban density may lead to shorter
distances, but not necessarily.
In the wake of urban density the greenstructures of the city is shattered.
The possibilities for green areas to contribute to the health of the city and its inhabitants is dramatically reduced.
Native Advertising - En Ulv i Fårakläder
Along with the increasing trend of online advertising comes an increasing avoidance behaviour from the observers. The marketing communication now requires a valuable content, which leads to the creation of new online advertising forms; including content marketing, advertorials, online ads and the latest rising star - Native Advertising. The last-mentioned also constitutes the basis and object of study for this paper. The purpose of this study is to shed light into this relatively unexplored topic and concretize the true effects. There are many examples of how Native Advertising is framed and implemented, but little hard facts and real figures.
Attraktivt butikskoncept - Vad som bör ingå för att kunden skall trivas och genomföra köp
Att handla kläder är något alla människor gör, vare sig det är för att vi måste eller för att det som numera är allt vanligare, för att det är en hobby och för många ett behov som tillfredsställs. Då det på marknaden råder stor konkurrens med allt fler valmöjligheter för den allt mer medvetna kunden och allt fler företag även satsar på postorder som alternativ gäller det för den fysiska butiken att särskilja sig och att ha en fungerande butikskommunikation. Butiker måste skapa en miljö där kunderna trivs och dit de väljer att återkomma och hitta ett sätt att slå igenom det brus av erbjudanden som kommer från konkurrenter. Syftet är att undersöka, beskriva och analysera vilka delar som ingår i ett lyckat butikskoncept. Undersökningen bygger dels på butiksobservationer, intervjuer med butikskommunikatörer och ven en enkät som lagts upp på det sociala nätverket Facebook.Slutsatsen vi kom fram till var att det viktigaste för butiken att tänka på var hur personalen uppträdde mot butiksbesökarna, att de var vänliga och hjälpande utan att vara påträngande.Även att lokalen var öppen, luftig så att det var en god framkomlighet i butiken och en belysning som jobbar med lokalen och visar upp kläderna bra.Varorna skall vara exponerade så att kunden får en överblick över vad som finns i butiken, bra organiserat, lättåtkomligt och gärna upphängda i outfit-kombinationer för att inspirera kunden till merköp eller skapa ett nytt behov..
Pox-rättegången, Mangafallet och Tintin-gate : en diskursanalys av debatter och nyhetsrapportering i svensk media om tecknade serier och censur
The study aims to examine how censorship and comics have been discussed in three debates. The aim is also to identify discourses and the orders and relations of power constructed in the debates, and to examine how librarians should handle debates about censorship and comics. Selected sources are articles from Swedish newspapers and tabloids about the debates on the Pox-trial, the manga case and the debate about Tintin in Kulturhuset. The results from the analysis indicates that the debates have been dominated by two main discourses: a discourse on freedom of speech and a discourse on social responsibility. Within the discourse of freedom of speech there is a range of perspectives that emphasize: artistic freedom, the need for open and free conversations, a discussion about how the comics are assessed in comparison with other media formats as well as a discussion about moral and moralism.
Vad är det där för konstig grej? : En studie om marknadsföring med Quick Response
Bakgrund: QR-koder är ett nytt marknadsföringsverktyg som möjliggör för företag att förmedla ett länkat innehåll direkt till konsumenten. Den största utmaningen för marknadsförare idag är att konsumenter inte vet vad QR-koder är och vad det innebär att använda tekniken.Forskningsfråga: Hur kan företag få kunder att använda QR-koder för att förmedla ett högre kundvärde?Syfte: Genom att beskriva QR-koder i marknadsföring, värdeskapande och kundbeteende samt analysera dessa faktorer är syftet med denna studie att skapa bättre förståelse för hur företag kan påverka kunder att använda QR-koder som ny teknik i avsikt att öka kundvärdet.Metod: I denna studie har QR-koder behandlats som ett fall där vi valt att utgå från en abduktiv ansats då det valda uppsatsämnet sedan tidigare är relativt outforskat. Det empiriska materialet har samlats in genom kvalitativa intervjuer med såväl företag som kunder.Slutsats: Genom analys av insamlat material har studien visat att företag bör kommunicera tydliga instruktioner om hur konsumenten ska gå tillväga för att ta del av QR-koden. Kodens innehåll måste vara av intresse och förmedla ett värde för mottagaren för att ge motivation till fortsatt användning.
Ljudisolering - Teknisk felsökning och kvalitetssäkring av lätta bygg-system
By using industrialized building, pre-installed modules can be delivered to the construction site where they are easily mounted. This method has many advantages compared to on-site manufacturing, for example, the precision during the production process should be much higher than building each wall and floor on site. Furthermore, the quick erection procedure when using prefabricated elements and the possibility to use weather protection has the advantage of not being dependent on weather conditions, and many other factors.Masonite Beams AB is a Swedish company (a member of the Norwegian company, Byggma ASA) with a relatively new technology using light weight beams as bearing elements in the walls and a certain stiff board lamella slap which is mounted on the top of the floor structure creating an integrated stiff beam / board floor structure. The elements are flat which make it much easier to transport the elements from the factory to the building site where the building parts are easily mounted with special mounting stud.One of the main drawbacks of lightweight structure is the sound transmission. The main topic is low frequency annoyance, however the complex structural elements and their mutual sensitive connections other acoustical problems might appear.
Varför e-handlar inte fler konsumenter?
Syftet med uppsatsen är att utreda varför inte fler konsumenter e-handlar. Vi vill ta reda på varför e-handeln inte tagit en större marknadsandel av den totala marknaden som förutspåtts. Vi har valt att enbart titta på business-to-consumer relationer. Våra respondenter befinner sig i åldern 18-65 år. Vi har använt oss av enkäter och semistrukturerade intervjuer av privatpersoner.
Etanolmarknaden i Brasilien : etanol som fordonsbränsle
According to the EC fuel regulations 2 % bio fuel has to be blended in all fuel by the year 2005, and 5.75 % by the year 2010, which means ethanol for gasoline driven vehicles, so there will be a substantial demand for ethanol. Brazil already has an established industry for producing ethanol and is the leading producer and exporter of fuel ethanol. My purpose with this paper is to investigate why Brazil decided to develop ethanol production on a large-scale operation and to find out today?s situation. Focus will mainly be on ethanol production with sugarcane as a feedstock.
KYRKLIGT KULTURARV I BEREDSKAPSPLANERING Logistik, roller och urval
With the political situation that prevails in the world, the need for contingency planning for the ecclesiastical heritage has become actualized with the aim of protecting the churches and their assets in war and armed conflicts. In accordance with Kulturmilj?lagen (SFS 1988:950) chapter 4 ? 15a, the Church of Sweden and its organizational parts are responsible for ensuring that contingency plans for the ecclesiastical heritage are established. In the legal statutes, it is not clear how this is to be carried out, who is responsible for all practical aspects or what is to be protected, something that creates gaps of knowledge regarding logistics, roles and selection. This means that there is currently a lack of principles and practice around the protection of the ecclesiastical cultural heritage, as contingency planning for cultural heritage is a fairly new phenomenon that has not been practiced in times of peace.
Förälder är lika med mamma: Synen på föräldraskap hos professionella som möter missbrukare.
Despite the fact that men dominate substance abuse research and that most programs to target substance abuse therefore are developed by and for men, very little is known about the fact that substance abusing men can also be parents. Mothers are up until today regarded as the most important parent even though society is changing and fathers are taken a more active part in childrearing. The average father today still spends significantly less time with his children than the average mother does and marginalised drug abusing fathers often disappear from their families altogether. The goal and purpose of this paper has been that through a qualitative analyses of written sources and qualitative interviews with healthcare professionals and social workers recognise how marginalised drug abusing fathers interests of taking part in their children's lives are met by healthcare, treatment and child protection agencies and how we can understand marginalised fathering as an extension of how we view ordinary fathering. I wanted to examine if there are any specific actions taken in involving these men as fathers and how we can understand their situation.
