Filmen "The Truman show" har använts som utgångspunkt för att diskutera hur människor uppfattar verkligheten utifrån sin livssituation. Tankar angående verklighet, media och tillvaro används för att diskutera filmens karaktärers medvetenhet och kunskap om sin egen situation. Då filmen handlar om Truman som filmas dygnet runt och sänds i en direktsänd TV-show över hela världen, utan att han vet om det, diskuteras även vilken roll media har för att skapa mening i människors vardagliga liv. Media används också för att förklara, enligt Truman, konstiga händelser vilket är meningen för att kunna hålla honom fortsatt omedveten om sin sanna tillvaro. Då personerna i filmen har olika kunskaper och erfarenheter om sin tillvaro, tas även tankar om detta upp för att visa på vad det är som gör att människor accepterar eller ifrågasätter sin situation.

Background: Operating on the stock market is associated with risks. If a particular asset is not traded with the same frequency as the average market asset, this particular asset is exposed to a liquidity risk.

The query is whether or not the investor is compensated with a liquidity premium for bearing the extra risk. Earlier studies on the Stockholm Stock Exchange have failed to prove that there is a relation between stock return and liquidity.

The aim of this paper is to shed some light on to what extent the process of making reality of Inclusion, as stated in International Declarations and in Government policies, has reached the actual educational activities in the school system. My chosen method is a case study, in which I have combined a survey with interviews in order to retrieve enough data for my analysis.

Sudan has always showed great potential in the poultry industry, but it has not been until now that this potential has blossomed and is growing quickly. As large agribusinesses1are taking over the market shares within the urban areas, smallholders2 have been put out of business. They are not able to compete with mass production and lack financial assets to improve their production techniques. Contract farming is defined as initiatives from agro industrial companies to secure access to smallholder produce and has in developing countries become a way of allowing the poor to participate in a larger market (Farrington, 1999). The aim with this study was to investigate the suitability of implementing the contract farming concept within the poultry industry in Sudan today. The study is a qualitative field study and the authors have conducted qualitative interviews with respondents involved in the poultry industry in Sudan.
