The aim of this masters thesis is to examine what political, social and ideological reasons that were the base for the establishment of the Swedish temperance movement. Which judgements within this movement that resulted in the decision to establish publishing firms, how these publishing businesses were organised and what function they had in the literary circuit. The questions are: What principal political, social, economical and ideological reasons were the bases for the establishment of the Swedish temperance movement? How has their need for publishing firms arisen? Which were the publishing firms and who were the publishers? What ideas, purposes, experiences, values and judgements led to the establishment of publishing firms? In the first part of the theory I have used the historical materialism of Karl Marx; in the second part the theory of middle class publicity by Jürgen Habermas; and in the third part I have made a presentation of the literary circuit and how it works according to Marx and Habermas. The method used is an analysis of ideas and ideologies in literature and documents.

Den här uppsatsen undersöker den dubbla roll som fossila bränslen spelar i ekonomin. Fossil energi är en viktig del av produktionen och påverkar därmed inkomstnivåerna i positiv riktning. Samtidigt ger den upphov till koldioxidutsläpp som kan påverka klimatet och ge upphov till extrema väderfenomen, stigande havsnivåer, ökad migration och konflikt, vilka så småningom kan orsaka stora externa kostnader. Frågeställningen är:? Hur påverkas ekonomin av koldioxidutsläppande fossila bränslen, beroende på om externa miljökostnader inkluderas eller exkluderas ur analysen?För att besvara denna, utvecklas Solowmodellen med naturresurser så att de fossila bränslenas externa kostnader synliggörs i ökande deprecieringstakter.

Media has the power to influences society. Some call them the third power of a state. Through amongst others, the agenda setting theory and the framing theory, this report seeks to understand how media describes the swine influenza and how it uses its power to influence people to vaccinate. As this report will show, there is no doubt that media has had an impact on the Swedish population of which 60 per cent followed through with the vaccination. Media used an information discourse and attempted to present its articles in an impartial manner and used governmental authorities and experts to support its arguments.

This thesis is largely about museums and their role and development in and for society. With a field/case study of the District Six Museum in Cape Town, we try to encapsulate a modern function for museums within a context of 1) the current worldwide discussion on museums and their future, and 2) the development of a new democratic nation in South Africa, and museums possible role in that process. Through analysis of interviews made with concerned people within and outside the District Six museum weintend to get a picture of the views on this particular museum and its role and function, for its community and society at large, plus for other museums, as a possible role model. We find that this museum might be close to a type of museum that has been asked for by museologists and others in recent times..

The great economic impact of startups on society has made these types of companies an increasingly popular subject for research. Though no single definition of the word startup currently exists, one could define it as a temporary organization in search of a scalable, repeatable, and profitable business model. Seen from a historic perspective, tech-startups in particular should be considered a new phenomenon and the topic is still relatively unexplored. This study investigates the structure in tech-startups during their first months of existence and compares it to the structure that prevails when the companies have recruited at least five additional employees. In addition, the study explains why these changes occur.

Individens hälsa har stor betydelse för hennes välmående och livskvalitet. Hälsa definieras utifrån fysiska, psykiska och sociala faktorer. Idag vet vi att individens hälsa påverkas av ett flertal faktorer som ligger utanför hälso- och sjukvårdens nuvarande ramar. En av de faktorer som anses påverka individens hälsa sammanfattas inom begreppet socialt kapital. Socialt kapital är ett resultat av att individer, grupper och organisationer investerat i resurser vilka bidragit till att utveckla goda sociala relationer.

Historiskt sett har oftast den avkastning som en kapitalförvaltare genererat varit av intresse. Risken som förknippats med den aktuella investeringen har ofta kommit i skymundan. I början på 1990-talet inträffade ett antal olika finansiella kriser och detta medförde att riskmedvetenheten ökade. Nu var inte enbart den erhållna avkastningen intressant. Även den risk som förknippades med investeringen var av stor vikt.

Föreliggande uppsats studerar sambandet mellan ekonomisk tillväxt och koldioxidutsläpp med global uppvärmning som följd. Med hjälp av en utveckling av ?den gröna Solow-modellen? görs en simulering av Sveriges BNP-utveckling från 2005 till 2050 där en variabel för mängden koldioxid förs in. Syftet är att visa på hur koldioxidutsläpp påverkar tillväxten negativt genom att deprecieringen av realkapitalet ökar. Deprecieringen ökar på grund av ökad förslitning som naturkatastrofer, översvämningar och jorderosion medför.
