Metaforer : När ordet betraktas som metafor

The metaphor has been among us since a very long time, but despite over 1.000 years of reflection it is still uncertain how one should understand the concept. There are few, if any, doubts how to understand the definition of metaphor, but is it possible to find a real distinction between the metaphorical and the non-metaphorical? In this essay I seek an answer to when a metaphor is a metaphor or when it is instead a generally accepted concept of how something actually is. I will use previous research on the topic from Aristotle, Friedrich Nietzsche, Paul Ricoeur and George Lakoff and Mark Johnson. These persons have given me a wide perspective and approach to the metaphor ? and when a word should be considered as a metaphor or not.

Produktcertifieringars inverkan på inköpsfunktionen : En fallstudie hos en kaffeproducent

Relationsmarknadsföring är ett perspektiv på företagande som, i motsats till transaktionsmarknadsföring, syftar till att etablera starka relationer mellan de involverade parterna. Perspektivet innebär att samtliga organisatoriska delar betraktas med ett relationstänk, det vill säga att även aktiviteter så som fakturering och back-office procedurer utförs med relationen i fokus. Begreppet har sin grund i en B2C-kontext, men har även fått fäste i en B2B-kontext. Syftet med relationsmarknadsföring i en B2B-kontext är att skapa tillfredsställande relationer mellan företag, med syfte att resultera i lojalitet. Lojalitet i sin tur, bidrar till ett högre brand equity som är ett varumärkes immateriella värde vilken har sin grund i en B2C-kontext.

Professioners interaktion i operationsmiljö : En observationsstudie över professioners interaktion på operation med fokus på kommunikation och hierarki- och maktfaktorer

The implementation of integration policy has in recent times been a major problem for the municipal administrations in Swedish municipalities. The concept of integration is considered to be very diffuse, difficult to apply and implement the following decisions. To understand the concept of integration is the first step, followed by understanding its complexity in an organization.In this study, I focus on studying the implementation of integration policies for integration work with Kalmar Municipality as a case study. I am using Lundquist's implementation theory about understanding, able and willing. The survey consists primarily of interviews but also a certain document to get a perspective on how integration policy has gone into integration work with the hypothesis that it is the understanding that weaknesses of the officials in the implementation of integration policies.

Strategiskt CSR-arbete i den svenska modebranschen - en studie av fyra företag

The concept Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) describes a company's social and environmental work. More and more companies have embraced the concept of CSR and for some businesses, it has become equally important to present its efforts within CSR as to present its latest profits.The purpose of this essay is to establish an overall picture of a company's CSR efforts and to discuss the potential conflict between CSR and the aim for profit We investigate how businesses can improve their CSR effort so that it contributes to a positive development for the society while still creating economic value for the company. The study is based on a qualitative study of four Swedish companies in the fashion industry: Kappahl, Gina Tricot, Åhlens and Indiska. The results show that according to the theoretical framework, the four companies do not reach a complete strategic approach to CSR. To achieve this it is necessary for the companies to change their current CSR-activities..

Hur påverkas Acers brand equity av co-branding med Ferrari?

Den senaste tiden har en mängd samarbeten, eller så kallade co-brandings, mellan olika företags varumärken vuxit fram. Avsikten är att förstärka sitt eller sina varumärken med hjälp av ett annat varumärke som är förknippat med någonting unikt. Hur bedömer man resultatet av denna co-branding? Har det egna varumärket förstärkts eller har det försvagats? För att klargöra detta resultat måste varumärkets Brand Equity mätas. Med brand equity menas det kapital som varumärket representerar.

Kritikens kris: En diskursanalys av begreppet kritiskt tänkande inom förskollärarutbildningen

The following study is a discourse analysis of the concept of critical thinking within pre-school teacher education. It considers the following questions: how does the concept of critical thinking appear in policy documents, central to the pre-school teacher education, and which possible conceptions of critical thinking are conveyed by students and teachers active within the education. Additionally, the study seeks to discuss, as well as suggest a possible relation, between the findings of those two questions. In reviewing the material (consisting of five semi-structured interviews with students and teachers, and of a selection of policy documents central to the education), I argue the existence of a sort of project within the education, which presents critical thinking as a higher value. At the same time, I argue that the concept is not defined or concretized. This project, however, as I suggest while drawing upon Foucault?s ideas of discourse and government, involves a rather high degree of control.

Moving 4Ward : En fallstudie ur ett ledningsperspektiv på varumärken och relationer

Pojkars läslust : en studie av hur pojkar uppfattar och uttrycker sitt intresse för läsning

Health and fitness are two controversial and not easily defined topics that affect people in our modern society every day. We believe that we can find a link between individualism, globalization and the stress concerning weight and appearance ideals. Our bodies have turned into a popular subject for the media, and there is no indication that the interest will decline. As the world gets more artificial, "natural" ideals are getting more attention, such as the concept of a strong and healthy body. But there is also a downside, for example with health issues such as cardiovascular disease increasing following the birth of high-fat diets.

Den moderna civilisationens plågoris : Den medicinska diskussionen om diffusa mag- och tarmbesvär i Sverige 1950-1965

Skuggor har länge fascinerat mig och varit en viktig del i mitt konstnärliga arbete. Skuggor av glas berättar inte bara om den yttre formen utan förmedlar även något från glasets inre. Mötet mellan det yttre och det inre, mellan det materiella och det immateriella är ett tema för detta arbete. Konsten och konsthantverket har en unik möjlighet att utforska och förmedla erfarenheter och kunskaper som finns i våra kroppar. Kunskap som vi ännu inte greppat med vårt intellekt.
