Examensarbete : examenskonsert & skiva : skriftlig reflektion inom självständigt, konstnärligt arbete
This thesis explores how art produced in the former GDR has been looked upon, handled and exhibited after the reunification of Germany in 1990. Swedish Art History has paid little attention to art in the GDR. The debate starting in the 50s between the spokesmen for abstract art and the defenders of figuration restrained for a long period the ability to look upon art from the GDR without prejudices. This led to a rejection of all figurative art in the GDR and sweeping judgmental attitudes, like it´s all ?kitsch?.
Inverkan av etnicitet och brottstyp på skuldbeläggning och återfallsrisk hos gärningsmän*
Stereotyper är starkt förenklade, känslomässigt laddade mentala representationer om personer som tillhör en viss grupp, som i sin tur kan generera fördomar. Studien undersökte huruvida svenskar och invandrare bedöms olika vid samma brottstyp. Det predicerades att invandrare skulle bedömas mer negativt, bedömas vara mer sannolika att återfalla i brott, samt rekommenderas längre straff än svenskar. Dessutom skulle män bedöma gärningsmännen mer positivt. 85 deltagare bedömde en av fyra varianter av en brottsbeskrivning där förövarens etnicitet samt brottstyp manipulerades.
