The digital dark age? Bevarande av elektroniskt material i Sverige
The first law in Sweden containing an act of legal deposit is from 1661. Since then the printing-houses are supposed to deliver all printed material to the Royal Library and other recipient libraries. Today, more and more information is solely published electronically. This material is not yet included in the law of legal deposit. In a similar way as our printed cultural heritage is saved for posterity our electronic cultural heritage has to be saved.
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.

Demokratin och folkbiblioteket folkbiblioteket och demokratin: Hur demokrati, offentlighet och information omnämns i kulturpolitiska dokument från 1990-talet
This Master Thesis aims to study and discuss the occurence of three concepts in some influential cultural policy documents which includes the UNESCO public library manifesto, the Swedish libraries act, the Swedish cultural policy objectives, and a study from the mid nineties which deals with the cultural policy. The questions asked are: -Do the documents mention democracy? In what way? -Do the documents mention the public sphere? In what way? -Do the documents mention information? In what way? -How can we understand the content of the documents through relevant theories about democracy, the public sphere and information? Theories about the information society are used, as well as theories from Jürgen Habermas, Herbert Schiller and Robert Dahl. The way of method is document studies and abduktion, with influences from hermeneutic theory. The analysis deals with the documents through these concepts: democracy, the public sphere and information and puts forward the content, or lack of content, about democracy in the analysed material.
Kulturkompetens i socialt arbete - vad är det?
Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka vilken innebörd begreppet ?kulturkompetens? ges i litteraturen samt utifrån detta problematisera dess applicering på praktiken. Begreppet ?kulturkompetens? saknar en enhetlig definition, något som initierat skrivandet av denna uppsats. Studien bygger på en litteraturstudie i form av en kvalitativ textanalys.
Kulturkompetens ? att möta det (o)lika? En diskursanalys av begreppet kulturkompetens och dess praktik, i en invandrartät stadsdel i Göteborg
We started out the study with a preconception of culture as something that creates difference between groups of people, which had been verified by our prior research. We also had a sense of culture as a polysemous term. Our assumption is also that there is an opinion within social work practice that Swedish social workers are faced with a cultural barrier when encountering immigrant clients.In this study our aim is to examine constructions of the terms cultural competence and culture. Constructions of the terms ethnicity and ethnic diversity are also observed, although the main reason for this is to show what relation these terms have to the terms cultural competence and culture, and how they may give each other meaning, according to the theory of social construction. In addition to constructions, we also aim to bring out discourses around the terms, upon which we will create a discussion about power and dominance informed by post-colonial theory and critical discourse analysis (CDA).
Kulturell, administrativ eller funktionell region? : En analys av Region Skåne och Västra Götalandsregionen
The Swedish regions are new phenomena, from the start from the new regionalism which started in the 1980´s. The purpose of the thesis is to analyze Region Skåne and Västra Götalandsregionen to come to a conclusion which model of region they are and want to be by using theories of regional identity and identity of politics and see similarities and differences. My research question is: Which of cultural, administrative and functional region are Region Skåne and Västra Götaland striving to construct? The methods I have used are qualitative text- and content analysis to analyze the regions, by using theories about regional identity and identity of politics. Furthermore, I am using some statistic from SOM-institutet to analyze the regional identity in the regions. The result show that Region Skåne is constructing a cultural region, because of their strong regional identity and that the politicians are using identity of politics to combine the citizens.
Subkultur och kommunikation : påverkar olika kulturer den hierarkiska kommunikationen i en organisation?
The essay studies the relationship between communication and organizational culture; to determine if there are any cultural differences between the management of an organization and its employees and to examine how a difference can affect the communication of organizational policies. A case study, where the public school was examined, was used to answer the research question, and interviews were held with relevant people on different levels in the organization.The interviews were analyzed with the theoretical frame of reference as a benchmark. Cultural differences could be identified between different levels in the organization and between the two schools studied. The differences affected how and why people communicated but not how well the respondents understood each other.Keywords: Organizational culture, subculture, Organizational communication, affects, hierarchy..

Vad gör egentligen besökarna på biblioteket? en användarundersökning på Filipstads Bergslags Bibliotek.
The purpose of this master thesis is to investigate what the users/visitors do at the Filipstads Bergslags Library when they are there. The questions we asked were "What do the visitors do when they are at the library?" and "How do the visitors give priority to the librarys services?" From these two questions we asked a third "How do the visitors view the library and its functions and what function do they see as the most important to them?" The method we used was a user study and we did this at the request of the management at the library. A questionnaire was constructed and handed out in a pilot study. We made some changes in the questionnaire before we started to hand it out at the library.
?Kristendomen och de andra världsreligionerna? : En jämförande studie av kursplanerna för religionskunskap i Sverige, Finland och Norge
Denna uppsats tar sitt avstamp i de nya svenska kursplanerna för religionskunskap som trädde i kraft år 2011. Här fick kristendomen behålla sin särställning gentemot de andra världsreligionerna trots att skolverkets förslag såg annorlunda ut. Blickar man utanför Sveriges gränser kan man se att trots att landet delar en stor del av sin utveckling med Finland och Norge finns det stora skillnader i religionsundervisningen. Uppsatsens syftar således till att jämföra de tre ländernas kursplaner i religionskunskap för grundskolan och gymnasiet med fokus på kristendomens ställning och det pluralistiska samhället. Här blir frågan om ländernas religiösa situationer (i denna uppsats går detta under benämningen religiösa kartor) central.
Om Maria backar så ser alla! : En studie om hur pedagoger bemöter barnen i förskolans samling utifrån ett genusperspektiv
Föreliggande studie syftar till att undersöka hur pedagogernas verbala och kroppsliga agerande i förskolans samling bidrar till att skapa könskonstruktioner interaktionellt. Som teoretisk utgångspunkt används historikern Hirdmans genussystem, vilket bygger på resonemanget att samhällets struktur kring kön och genus organiseras utifrån en dikotomi mellan könen och en hierarki där mannen/det manliga är överordnat kvinna/det kvinnliga. Därtill används ett kompletterande synsätt där också en eventuell pluralism i könskonstruerandet inom könskategorierna ska kunna bli synlig. Den datainsamlingsmetod som har använts är observation med hjälp av videoinspelningar, och analysen har sedan genomförts utifrån etnografiska riktlinjer. Observationerna har genomförts på en 3-5-årsavdelning och omfattar tio observationstillfällen som tidsmässigt varierar mellan femton och femtio minuter.
Kulturella och språkliga skillnader i globalt inköpsarbete
In the global society of today it takes more and more to become a successful purchaser. One part of this is to understand distinctions between different countries. The first and the biggest thing that you think about are the languages. Of course this is a big obstacle but there are also big cultural differences to be considered. According to Van Weele (2002) this is something that not, until these days, have been prioritized but today it is becoming more common in the industries.The biggest question we asked ourselves before the work started was how cultural and verbal differences affected the global procurement on Husqvarna.
