Titel: Kollektivjournalistiken ? En studie om Västtrafiks nya biljettsystemsom nyhetsämneFörfattare: Marcus Odeholm, Fredrik Richardsson och Henrik von SchlanbuschOmfattning: 52 sidor inklusive bilagaHandledare: Britt BörjessonKurs: Examensarbete i Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap,Institutionen för journalistik, medier och kommunikation (JMG)Göteborgs universitetTermin: Vårterminen 2010Syfte: Studiens syfte är att utifrån ett nyhetsperspektiv analysera hurGöteborgs-Postens och TTELAs journalister ser på rapporteringen om Västtrafiks nya biljettsystem.Metod: Kvalitativ intervjustudieMaterial: Analysen utgår ifrån intervjuer med sex stycken journalister som skriver för Göteborgs-Posten respektive TTELA. Intervjuerna genomfördes utifrån en semistrukturerad intervjuguide.Huvudresultat: Studiens resultat visar att det primärt är journalisternas bedömning av vad som kommer skapa stort läsarintresse som styr nyhetsvärdering, men att även läsarna själva i stor mån kan påverka medieinnehållet genom interaktion. Kombinationen av dessa är anledningen till den omfattande rapporteringen om Västtrafiks nya biljettsystem. Sekundärt kan faktorer för nyhetsurval, som ekonomi och medielogik, påverka, men för den enskilde journalisten behövs dessa sällan tas i beaktning.

The purpose of this thesis is to identify and analyse the view and consciousness of history present in essays written by Swedish high school students in 1877 and 1929. A theoretical framework was established in order to accomplish this, based on the theories of Peter Aronsson and Jörn Rüsen (through Lars Andersson Hult) that defines consciousness of history through a matrix that expresses a progression as well as a scaling complexity. Furthermore, the theories of Knut Kjelstadli and Magnus Hermansson Adler were adopted to establish two different types of view of history: one adhering to a view of history where groups and individuals are seen as integral to the progression of history, and the other explains historical process through more functional explanations, such as dependant on cultural and social structures.This framework erects ideal-types of different types of view and consciousness of history, and the thesis at hand strives to categorise the different kinds of view and consciousness of history found in the studied essays in accordance with these ideal-types through two different models based on the above mentioned theories.The findings presented here largely point to a view of history that is largely centered on an actor-oriented view of history, where individuals such as kings and generals are given a central position when historical events are being narrated, and is present in both 1877 and 1929, with some shifting nuances. As for the consciousness of history the lion part of the analysed texts can be seen adhering to a more traditional type of consciousness in 1877, although a slight shift can be seen towards a more complex type of consciousness in the texts from 1929..

Syftet med vårt arbete är att synliggöra bruket av svordomar ur ett ungdomsperspektiv. Arbetet har utgått från följande frågor: Hur upplever ungdomar sitt eget och andra ungdomars bruk av svordomar? Vad finns det för skillnader mellan hur flickor och pojkar svär? Hur resonerar ungdomar kring svordomar i skolans värld? Den metod som vi har använt för att få svar på frågeställningarna har varit av en enkätundersökning. De begrepp som används för att få svar på frågeställningarna bestod av identitet samt begreppen kränkning, svordom, ungdomar, ungdomskultur och språk. Resultatet visade på att svordomar tillhör en viktig del i ungdomarnas vardag, och att svordomarna inte uppfattas som ett större problem av dem.

This master thesis summarizes contemporary theories on secularization processes in the Western world, and compares these with the example of Sweden, which by many scholars is considered to be the most secularized country in the Western world.I do this by dividing the most influential theorists in five different groups. In each group I explain how the theorists formulate and motivate their positions. These groups are:1) The secularization paradigm, where secularization always accompanies modernization. (Therorists: Steve Bruce and Peter Berger (in the 1960s)2) The paradigm basically accepted, but revised to depend on existential security, rather than modernisation as such. (Pippa Norris and Ronald Inglehart)3) Religion returned in the public sphere.
