Syftet med denna undersökning var att genom en jämförelse mellan originalet och nyinspelningen av filmen The Hills Have Eyes (1977 av Wes Craven, 2006 av Alexandre Aja) analysera filmiska representationer av monstrositet. Undersökningen vilade på föreställningen att det monstruösa som en filmisk framställning är beroende av en tolkning som resulterar i en upplevelse av monstrositet, och att denna tolkning är knuten till en social verklighet som ser olika ut i olika historiska skeden. Teoretiska utgångspunkter skapades med förankring i Foucaults idéer kring diskurser, men även i Ulrich Becks beskrivning av risksamhället samt Anthony Giddens och Zygmunt Baumans tänkande beträffande modernitetens villkor. Undersökningen genomfördes som en innehållsanalys som utgick ifrån att välja undersökningsobjekt och att definiera vad undersökningen skulle fokusera på, varpå objekten observerades, observationerna kategoriserades, kategorierna analyserades och resultatet sammanställdes i en rapport. Arbetet ledde fram till tre övergripande slutsatser: 1.

This paper studies how the ?Swedish model? has influenced the Swedish community during the first half of the twentieth century and how living with this model was like in the 1960s. During the ?60s the laws and reforms created by the ruling socialistic party, SAP, dominated the Swedish society. Their goal was to build Per Albin Hansson?s vision of a welfare state.

Based on 30 years of work experience in TV and film production, I have made a phenomenological analysis of my perception of meaning in work - how it arises and how it is undermined. The story starts in my experience of early professional film making in the 1980's and describes how a change to work in TV production required the development of a new professional identity. The text also illustrates how as a female director I have managed my role in a male dominated and structured work environment. Being defined as an exception from the male norm has pushed me towards femininist reflection and the need to redefine my own work role - the generally accepted view having felt uncomfortable. An analysis of structural change in TV and film production shows how market pressures and ways of thought have increasingly invaded cultural endeavour. Professional spheres of influence are weakened, while developments in the media are characterised by a commercialism which encroaches more and more upon artistic, spiritual and moral values. This attitude, where quality is in retreat, has transformedprogramme makers from creative originators into becoming suppliers of raw material in a factory- like process geared to produce great volume at low cost.The aim of this essay is to show how changes in society and in TV and film making have affected my perception of my work.

The aim of this paper is to map out the purposes of the United Nations Peacekeeping Operations. This is done in order to see if humanitarian tendencies have been an increasingly cause for the UN to initiate an intervention with military means. This paper uses the time period from the end of the cold war until today, since that historic occurrence increased the U.N.?s involvement in peacekeeping. By using this time span it enables the survey to indicate changes in the mapping of humanitarian interventions.

 Det statistiska kvalitetsverktyget Statistisk Processtyrning, SPS, introducerades på BT Products AB i Mjölby utifrån en specifik implementeringsprocess. Introduktionen utfördes i en målningsprocess och genom detta arbete kunde aktuell process utvärderas och orsaker bakom eventuell urskiljbar variation eftersökas. I gällande process målas gods till eldrivna truckar svarta genom elektrostatisk pulvermålning, där eftersträvad färgskikttjocklek är 70 µm. Målningen utförs automatiserat av fyra robotar och för att erhålla kunskap om processens uppförande studerades och analyserades utfallet statistiskt utifrån en bestämd kvalitetsindikator, färgskikttjockleken. Data samlades in utifrån denna indikator genom kontinuerlig mätning på utvalt objekt och med hjälp av en mätmall för att erhålla jämförbara observationer.

Tumour development occurs to a large extent because of dysregulation of the cell cycle. Of particular importance are defects occurring in the G1 phase. The reason why G1 is critical is because of the influence of several signals (external signals as well as cyclins and cdks) on this stage. The G1 phase can be divided into two parts, G1pm and G1ps. Each part has its ?own? restriction point which needs to be passed in order to progress to S phase.

SAMMANFATTNINGSyfte: Syftet med denna studie var att på ett sjukhus i Mellansverige undersöka hur tillfredställda patienterna var med information om läkemedelsbiverkningar Syftet var även att undersöka grad av oro över eventuella biverkningar och jämföra om det fanns någon könskillnad gällande detta.Metod: Studiens design var en kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie med deskriptiv och jämförande statistik. Data samlades in genom en Studiespecifik enkät. Antalet svarande var 29 inneliggande patienter under 10 veckor som uppfyllde inklusionskriterierna.Resultat: Resultatet visade att hälften av deltagarna inte hade fått information om läkemedelsbiverkningar och att 78 % uppgav sig vilja ha mer information. Nio av tio deltagare instämde till att vara oroliga över eventuella biverkningar och 64 % uppgav att de var osäkra eller inte visste vart de skulle vända sig vid frågor om biverkningar. Trots detta var drygt hälften av deltagarna delvis eller helt nöjda med den information de fått.

The parrot is a common symbol, or even cliché, in Western literature, going all the way back fromancient Greece to the present date, and in many a genre. This study reads the oeuvre of the NobelPrize winner Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) as being closely related to these certain traditions andconnotations of for example religion, satire, and speaking nonsense, in his frequent use of parrotsand their symbolic potentials, in his writing. Furthermore, it is possible to distinguish a movementin Beckett?s use of parrots, from a more or less traditionally use, to one more philosophicallyprofound.Although the parrot graces us with its presence (or at least may be traced) in almost everywork written by Beckett, from the poem ?Whoroscope? (1930) to How It Is (1961), they are onlymentioned sparsely by his interpreters. Therefore, a brief history of the literary tradition of theparrot will be expounded.

The aim of this master's thesis is to study how gender equity is discussed and worked with at a Swedish public library, and what potential consequences these discussions will bring. By analysing different types of documents and interviews with library staff using discourse psychological theories and methods we show that two dominating discourses coexist and determine the direction of how gender equity is discussed. These discourses are argued to create and uphold gender and gender roles within the organisation as well as in society at large.In our study we find that one of the identified discourses has, as one of its consequences, that it preserves and regenerates traditional gender roles. This discourse is mainly used when discussing personnel policies and when recruiting. We call this the discourse of gender role preservation.The second discourse is mainly seen when discussing the public dimension of the library's functions.

Denna uppsats undersöker vilka litterära gotiska motiv och begrepp som rockbandet The Cure använder sig av i sin visuella estetik, närmare bestämt i tre av deras musikvideor: "Charlotte Sometimes (1981), "The Lovecats" (1983) och "Lullaby" (1989). Analysen och undersökningen utgår från teorier kring semiotisk bildanalys samt ett intermedialt perspektiv där det tidigare skrivna ordet transformeras till visuella bilder. Andra teoretiska inriktningar som används i denna text är bland annat genusteorier kring receptionen av bilder samt ett psykoanalytiskt perspektiv där främst det undermedvetnas funktion inom den litterära texten granskas. Undersökningen kring och om gotiken utgår ifrån Mattias Fyhr definition av den litterära gotikens kännetecken. Undersökningen visar att The Cure använder sig av typiska gotiska motiv och könsstereotyper i sin visuella estetik men anpassar samt omvandlar gotikens uttryckssätt till att fungera i en postmodern kontext.

 When a couple divorce or when couples move apart a division of property can be done. A married couple's property constitutes of joint property and private property. In a division of property between spouses is only the value of the joint property included, not the value of the private property. In a division of property between couples that live together but not a married their joint property that are bought to be used by them together will be included. It is the value of the joint property that will be shared in the division of property.

Jag vill med min uppsats ta med läsaren på en djupdykning i bilden och symbolernas värld även om det med ord kan vara svårt att beskriva, då det ju i själva verket rör sig om en nivå som kommer före ordet. Mitt huvudsakliga syfte är att utforska huruvida bilderna och symbolerna fortfarande är livsnödvändiga för människans psykiska och kanske därmed fysiska överlevnad? Kan vi fortfarande än i dag, låta oss beröras av deras kraftfält och därmed göra förändringen, utvecklingen, transformationen och helandet möjligt?!Vidare vill jag undersöka bildens dubbla roll som både ?symtomavslöjare? och framåtblickande ?transformerande helare?, samt kopplingen till shamanism och alkemi. Vad kan nutidsmänniskan lära av detta? Vad kan vi ta till oss i dag? Och vad mår den enskilde individen och ett samhälle bäst av i längden?Jag vill betona en psykodynamisk syn på människan där även Jungs analytiska psykologi ingår, och använda objektrelationsteoretikerna som en gemensam bro mellan Jung, Freud och bildterapi.
