In my project, Cups on the run, I have studied the relationship between ceramic utility objects and different environments, when moving them off the table. My background as a potter has been the starting point. From there, I wanted to see if I could expand my craft to the space beyond. With the cup, which for most people has a clear function and a relation to us human, in repetitive structure I explored the spatiality and architecture in various environments. Life fascinates me through how everything is made up of tiny parts that together create the tangible and intangible.

This literature study summarizes the signals dogs use in intraspecific communication. The purpose is to clarify the way dogs communicate so that situations where their intentions are misjudged can be avoided. The signals are divided into olfactory, visual, auditory and tactile and every section starts with a short anatomic and physiologic description of the sense organ that is used to register the current signal type. The interspecific communication between dog and human regarding its development and function is brought up. To end with suggestions are given of how veterinary technicians in clinics can make use of knowledge about the way dogs communicate.

En av de frågor som diskuteras allra mest i politiken är hur man bäst gör för att öka sysselsättningen och minska arbetslösheten. Den nuvarande regeringen har som mål att Sverige ska ha lägst arbetslöshet i EU 2020, genom en ?modern och aktiv näringspolitik? (Regeringskansliet, 2014). Att detta hänger samman med ekonomisk tillväxt ifrågasätts sällan i den politiska debatten, vilket empirin talar för att det inte heller behöver göras i de flesta fall. Men under vissa perioder har det visat sig att det inte alls är självklart att dessa hänger ihop, då normal eller hög tillväxt inte har inneburit högre sysselsättning eller lägre arbetslöshet.1993 släppte UNDP sin årliga Human Development Report där de beskrev att läget i världsekonomin kunde beskrivas med vad de kallar för ?a new phenomenon ? jobless growth? (UNDP, 1993:36).

Human existence and welfare depend on functional ecosystems. Ecosystems are critical to sustain life-support services for human well-being. One method that visualizes that humanity requires ecosystem services for resource consumption and assimilation of produced waste is ecological footprints. This study focuses on the ecosystem service carbon sequestering. A quantification of this ecosystem service showed the potential for accumulation of carbon in different ecosystems in Stockholm and Norrbotten County for the years of 1995 and 2004.

This bachelor thesis has the purpose to visualize and document the air movementsprovided by different ventilation principles in an operating theatre. The visualizationwill be made as simple as possible in a physical model. The model and thedocumentation should be able to use in educational purposes.The study is based on the two most common systems for airflow, currently used inoperating theatres. The first principle is displacement ventilation in which the air issupplied at low velocity along the floor. The second principle is vertical parallel laminarairflow in which the air is compressed like a piston from ceiling to the floor.A review of literature resulted in the choice of size, design, and scale factor for themodel, as well as choices of ventilation principles and airflows.

Begreppet employer branding handlar om en arbetsgivares attraktivitet utifrån olika faktorer så som lön, förmåner, utveckling, arbetsmiljö etc. Begreppet har under de senaste 10 åren utvecklat ett starkt fäste i organisationers strategiska prioriteringar.Norrbottens läns landsting står inför en av deras största utmaningar för att säkra den framtida kompetensförsörjningen. Landstinget står inför ett stort generationsskifte med många pensionsavgångar och måste lyckas attrahera nya medarbetare att söka sig till organisationen. Ett starkt arbetsgivarmärke kan vara avgörande för hur levande en organisation blir, människan är en av de främsta resurserna i en organisation och medarbetarna är en viktig ambassadör.I Norrbottens läns landstings medarbetarundersökning från 2014 signalerar medarbetarna ett missnöje gentemot arbetsgivaren. Denna studie, som är en master uppsats i Human Resource Management med utgångspunkt i Sociologin, avser att genom kvalitativa intervjuer med anställda inom hälso- och sjukvården undersöka medarbetarnas upplevelser av arbetsgivaren för att identifiera vad missnöjet kan bero på.Resultatet visar att medarbetarna är nöjda med sin arbetsplats, med sina arbetsuppgifter och med sina kollegor.

Regionalisation has become an increasingly important phenomenon in a globalized world. As models of regional integration, the European Union (EU) and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) are two prominent examples. This thesis seeks to explore through a comparative analysis, the different mechanisms and institutions for handling breaches against fundamental values within the two regional organizations. Inter-linked with the issue of the legal-institutional framework is that of what values the mechanisms are designed to protect. The method used for the analysis is first and foremost that of public international and European law, but the thesis also attempts to give a broader picture of the issues presented.

The occupational group who works in the care of older people in Sweden is an exposed group since the work is often defined as a strenuous profession, both physical and psychically, and this puts comparatively many workers on sick leave. To promote good health, as well as prevent bad health is the main purpose of the work environment development. The attitude of the care manager towards work environment development may have a significant impact on the co-workers health. The purpose of the study was to investigate the attitude of care managers towards work environment development and the co-workers work environment and in the same time get knowledge in what issues they have a salutary approach respectively a pathological approach. Empirics were gathered from semi-structured interviews with six care managers from the care of older people administration in municipality of Kalmar.

This study deals with the distinct difference in media attention the earthquake-disaster in Haiti and the flood-disaster in Pakistan got in 2010. There may be many reasons to this divergence, but this study focuses on how news articles can create compassion.   This study, with its critical perspective, examines how two daily papers in Sweden portray the suffering of the victims of the catastrophes in Haiti and Pakistan, and create compassion for them. Furthermore it asks the question who benefits from the newspaper?s description of human suffering in the third world.   The result shows that the manner of which Swedish daily newspapers report from the catastrophe in Haiti creates an emotional involvement, which most likely leads to compassion. Furthermore it shows potential to lead the readers to identify with the suffering people in Haiti.   The Swedish daily newspapers report of the catastrophe in Pakistan on the other hand, does not involve the reader on an emotional level, but gives them the role of a spectator.

This paper aims at shedding light on the effects of a broken psychological contract in terms of job satisfaction. In a qualitative field study, the author researches seven newly recruites employees about their expectations when starting their jobs at the rapidly growing, Swedish company Klarna. Using Herzbergs two-factor model of hygiene and motivation factors as well as modern motivation theory, i.e. self-determination theory, the study answers questions as to what makes a candidate choose a company and what factors motivates as well as demotivates the recruit at the job, in the onboarding phase. The result is an attempt to describe what makes a recruitment process successful..

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka huruvida bistånd leder till ökad kosmopolitisk rättvisa. Begreppet kosmopolitisk rättvisa är i första hand hämtat från Kok-Chor Tans bok Justice Without Borders. Kosmopolitisk rättvisa används för att kunna operationalisera rättvisa på ett kvantifierbart sätt, vilket ökar möjligheten att mäta huruvida rättvisan i de undersökta fallen har ökat, minskat eller varit konstant.För att besvara frågan undersöker jag sambandet mellan bistånd och rättvisevariabler, med hjälp av ett statistiskt datamaterial och regressionsanalys. Jag använder tvärsnittsdata som kommer från UNDPs organisation Human Development Report, vilken listar världens länder utifrån om de har High, Medium eller Low Human Development, varav statistik om länderna i de två sistnämnda kategorierna används i uppsatsen. Jag använder mig av olika variabler, exempelvis Nettotalet för barn som börjar skolan "primary" uttryckt i procent, Platser i parlamentet som innehas av kvinnor och Offentliga utgifter för utbildning som procent av BNP, för att undersöka huruvida det finns en positiv korrelation mellan dessa och bistånd.Jag använder mig även av en fåfallsstudie där jag undersöker det svenska biståndets effekt på kosmopolitisk rättvisa i Indien och Sri Lanka, för att jämföra och dra slutsatser om hur biståndet har påverkat utvecklingen av rättvisan.

It is a well known archaeological concern that the remains of human bones left from the bronze age and early iron age Scandinavia are not nearly enough to represent the estimated population of the time. Furthermore the bones of each find rarely represent a whole individual. The majority of the bones must have been disposed of somewhere else, possibly scattered in running waters or in the fields, where they have evaporated or are securely hidden from archaeological excavations.This thesis deals with the grave concept and the problem in using a word that is so very clouded by its modern, western meaning. It also offers an alternative explanation to why the bones are handled the way they are and why they are found in such awkward contexts..
