Dr. Robert A. Pape gav 1996 ut sin bok Bombing to Win ? Airpower and Coercion in War där han presenterar sin teori om hur luftmakt bäst ska användas för att påtvinga sin vilja över en motståndares. Genom empiriska studier argumenterar han för att strategisk bombning inte fungerar utan luftstridskrafterna ska istället användas till att bekämpa fiendens militära strategi.Detta självständiga arbete presenterar kärnan ur Pape's teori, samt tar ut tre centrala kriterier som verkar sammanfattande för teorin och undersöker sedan om det går att urskilja dessa inom Nato's nyttjandet av luftmakt under Operation Deliberate Force i Bosnien 1995.

Syfte: Att beskriva patienters upplevelser och behov av information i den preoperativa fasen samt att beskriva patienters upplevelser av preoperativa livsstilsförändringar. Metod: I denna litteraturstudie ingick arton vetenskapliga artiklar, elva kvalitativa och sju kvantitativa. Dessa har sökts på databaserna CINAHL och PubMed och granskats med granskningsmallar. Resultatet strukturerades sedan upp under olika teman som framkom vid analysen. Resultat: Patienter upplevde oro både inför den operation som låg framför och allt runtomkring.

Bakgrund: WHO:s checklista är ett hjälpmedel avsett för att reducera komplikationer i samband med kirurgiska ingrepp. Studier har visat att checklistan inte bara förbättrar patientsäkerheten utan också bidrar till bättre kommunikation och teamarbete.Syfte: Syftet denna studie var att undersöka vad operationssjuksköterskan anser om användningen av WHO:s checklista på operation och om de anser att den påverkar patientsäkerheten och teamarbetet.Metod: Deskriptiv enkätstudie med kvantitativ ansats. Genomförd vid ett sjukhus i mellansverige som en totalundersökning. Enkäten delades ut till 102 operationssjuksköterskor. Totala svarsfrekvensen blev 59,8% (n=61).Resultat: Visade på en bättre följsamhet av användandet av checklistan vid planerade ingrepp jämfört med det akuta.

In today's Sweden there are approximately 23 000 combination companies, and most of them have a connection with the agricultural sector. The most common type of additional operation is some form of contracting.The aim for this degree project is to answer the following question: which problems and key factors exists within combination operations? The main topic will be within coordination and management questions within agricultural companies with an additional operation.Litterateur written earlier within this subject will be used in this thesis. Mainly litterateur which contains information about combination companies and diversification of some sort. There are also other theories used in this thesis such as; resource based theory and decision making theory in order to understand the problems and key factors within combination companies.In order to investigate the aim of this thesis we have chosen to perform two qualitative interviews with the managers of two different combination companies.

Further we want companies/organizations that use this should be able to make better decisions concerning marketing towards students. Maybe they will get better results on the basis of our investigations. Method: We used the qualitative method when we did the interview that was also non-standardized. The survey was quantitative, and the case study comprises both qualitative and quantitative method. Conclusion: Companies/organizations that arrange this type of competitions have to look over their marketing of the competition.

Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerformen hos kvinnor och drabbar ca 7000 svenska kvinnor varje år. Tack vare regelbundna mammografiundersökningar som kvinnor över 40 år kallas till, upptäcks ofta cancern tidigt och kan behandlas. Hos författarna växte en vilja att veta hur kvinnorna upplever perioden mellan diagnos och operation. Det skapades en önskan att förstå hur kvinnorna upplever det att stå inför en mastektomi där hela bröstet ska tas bort och hur det inverkar på deras känslor och vardag. Syftet med studien är därför att belysa patienters upplevelser i väntan på en bröstcanceroperation.

The purpose of this essay is to describe the organization of the Swedish Animal WelfareAgency during the time it was in operation. The Swedish Animal Welfare Agency was established in 2005 by the government who saw it as necessary in order to strengthen the protection of cruelty to animals in Sweden. However, the agency was shut down already in2007 and its responsibilities as an agency was moved back to the government and the department of agriculture. During its time in operation, the Swedish Animal Welfare Agency, received much criticism, among other things because of its interpretations of the law which were seen as too focused on details and thus ?bureaucratic?.

What are the basic thoughts formulated in the Heraclitean fragments? A cosmology, a philosophy of nature, the idea that all can be reduced to a single substance? There is always a risk that Heraclitus is fitted into a thought pattern he doesn?t belong to, if we ? from our present horizon ? focus on continuity in an attempt to frame his thinking as part of an overall progress, running from the so-called pre-Socratics to Aristotle, in the history of philosophy. If we picture the dawn of Western civilization as an early development of scientific thinking, built on a gradual and continuous growth of knowledge, we will easily go astray as we try to discover the Greek origins of philosophy. Assuming, for example, that the readings of Heraclitus as a natural philosopher have come to a dead end, can we approach the fragments from a different angle?The aim of this paper is not to give a systematized reading of all the remaining fragments of Heraclitus, but neither to necessarily contradict the various interpretations that emphasise how these shattered remains reflect a coherent philosophy.

This report presents an independent thesis corresponding 15hp and was carried out on Högskolan in Halmstad during the spring of 2014. The thesis is the final course which ends a three-year mechanical engineering program with focus on technical design.The thesis started in an operation which electricians are exposed to every day. The operation in question is cable laying or wiring. The tool they use is called a tension spring and is a long and stiff wire, usually made out of nylon or fiberglass. The tension spring is fed through pipes in the walls and brings the desired cables with it on the way back.

Under lågkonjunkturer är det ofta ungdomar som drabbas hårdast på arbetsmarknaden. Ungdomsarbetslösheten i den Europeiska unionen har i och med den senaste finanskrisen ökat dramatiskt och genomsnittet ligger på en nivå över 22 %. Det land som 2011 hade den högst rapporterade ungdomsarbetslösheten bland medlemsstaterna var Spanien, 46,4%, och den lägsta återfanns i Nederländerna med 7,6 %, dessa siffror har fram till mätningar i mars 2012 växt till 51,1% för Spanien och 9,3 % för Nederländerna. Denna uppsats ämnar att utifrån teorier kring utbildningssystem, arbetslöshet och dual marknadsteori jämföra varför stora skillnader i ungdomsarbetslöshet existerar mellan dessa två länder.Genom en deskriptiv studie av de båda ländernas utbildningssystem, arbetsmarknader och arbetsmarknadsåtgärder finner vi stora skillnader mellan länderna, som till viss del kan förklara varför Spaniens ungdomsarbetslöshet är mer än fem gånger så stor som Nederländernas. Vi fann skillnader mellan de båda ländernas utbildningssystem och vilka åtgärdsprogram som införts för att reducera ungdomsarbetslösheten samt att länderna drabbats olika svårt av den senaste recessionen..

The history of books and libraries in the Philippines starts after the arrival of the Spaniards in 1521. During the Spanish era, most of the libraries were established through the religious orders to support their own religious mission. The Americans came in the beginning of the 20th century and have had a decisive influence on the education system and the development of libraries in the Philippines. For the analysis, I have used the models of Michael H. Harris and Magnus Torstensson in their studies of library development.

According to law all Swedish authorities must express themselves using correct, plain and comprehensible language whenever they communicate with the citizens in order to make it easy to understand what needs to be known to participate in the Swedish democratic society. I would like to explore if there are more tools than the language that could be used to make their communication easier to comprehend, in this case images and stories. In this essay I will investigate the relationship between the written words and the visual components ? images and illustrations ? in brochures from Swedish authorities. I will also try to identify possible narratives in the brochures, and examine the functions of these narratives.

In the government's bill on infrastructure for 2010-2021, the government presents that road investments should be prioritized before investments in the railway. The grants for operation and maintenance of the railways are much higher then in the last government's bill. Furthermore the current founding of investment in railways is higher then for road investment which is in opposite of the bill on infrastructure's directives. Therefore the purpose with my thesis is to find which factors that can explain how come the government has chosen to take these actions. As a model to help me achieve my purpose I have been using a modified version of the DBO-theory, where the basic factors to explain an action is Desire, Belief and Opportunities.

ur society is today in a phase of development in environmental and sustainable thinking. Alarming reports show changes in climate caused by our load and exhaust of resources. The energy usage contributes to a big part of it, by its emission of carbon dioxide. The built environment uses around 40 % of the total energy consumption in Sweden and requests to strongly reduce it are presented from both EU and national level.This thesis brings up the subject of green building with a focus on how we can create more energy efficient buildings in projects of new construction. Since the construction industry today often fails to pass on the knowledge between different projects, as a return of experiences, the construction company Skanska suggested the topic for this thesis.
