If this depends on the climate and the attitude of our homes, ourselves, the combination of both or something completely different is a question we have asked ourselves at times. But our approach to technology does not seem as obvious to all women, and today the IT industry is heavily dominated by men. This has meant that we have asked the question whether there is any underlying reason why so few women opt for IT courses?

Ådalen och bloody sunday: En jämförande fallstudie av militärt våld
The 1900s saw two incidents of states using their military in civil disorder situations, which resulted in the killing of unarmed citizens. May 14, 1931 in Ådalen, marks a significant part of Swedish history and its view of the use of military force. On that day, a peaceful protest march escalated, which resulted in live firing by the military stationed there to uphold law and order. This resulted in the deaths of five civilians and the prohibition of the use of military force in incidents of civil disorder. In 1972 in Northern Ireland a similar event took place on January 30, which is commonly known as Bloody Sunday. The Troubles were raging and resulted in protests for civil rights by nationalists.
Fördelning av aktieägarvärde ? En händelsestudie av fastighetsbolagsförvärv på Stockholmsbörsen
Förvärv kan göras utifrån en rad olika motiv, där möjligheten till ökad lönsamhet genom synergieffekter är ett av de vanligaste. Synergieffekter ger fördelar, vilka genererar större kassaflöden och således högre avkastning för företagets ägare. Medan budgivande bolag främst handlar utifrån incitament såsom möjlighet till ökad konkurrenskraft, marknadsandel och lönsamhet, attraheras målbolagets aktieägare snarare av budpremien. Detta eftersom de oftast erhåller en premie på mellan 15 till 50 procent utöver bolagets aktuella marknadsvärde. Empiriska undersökningar som gjorts kring uppköpssituationer i fastighetsbranschen, inklusive denna, visar att uppköp i regel gynnar det uppköpta företagets aktieägare på bekostnad av aktieägarna i det förvärvande bolaget.
