In the current situation in the housing market and in particular the inner city much attention is directed towards achieved prices per square meter in sales. The indicator is as a principle an appropriate measure of the housing market?s health and development, and can to some extent be used to make approximations of the general economic health status of municipalities and counties. It occurs occasionally that questions about whether prices are based on fundamentals at all times.The thesis questions that very issue, not from a macro accompanying financial perspective but rather from a microeconomic perspective, where each tenant ownership in the study is a micro-object. Are the observed prices per square meter rational relative to housing cooperative?s assets or is there a lack in the observed prices anchoring the respective association's finances.

An analysis of Zolas Nana focusing on male desire. Through a study of the narrtive structure and the polemic relation between the concepts of ?Nature? and ?Culture? it is shown that opposing ideologies are imbedded in the text. Nana is a symbolic character, in large, a myth created by male desire that eventually becomes a manifestation of that desire. At the same time, however, the character Nana evolves from being a mirrored image of male desire into a more stable and real individual and this process is also an answer to when and why she dies,underlining the fact that she initially was a creation emanating from male desire and in losing those symbolic functions she loses her function in the novel..

This thesis deals with a Swedish shopping centre, NOVA, from a phenomenological point of view. Starting in my own experience of the architecture I discuss issues such as gender, consumerism and the image of the ideal society, the Heterotopia, as they appear to me in my studies of the building.Divided into three different themes I then discuss the aspects I?ve found through my meeting with the architecture in comparison to a number of texts on the subject.My phenomenological analysis, combined with earlier research, presents to me a number of aspects more evident than others, as I do my own interpretation of the building and its architecture..

Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur Malmö stad använder sig av evenemang för en ökad attraktionskraft.  Studiens syfte och frågeställningar har besvarats genom intervjuer med Malmö stad, Malmö Turistbyrå, Tourism in Skåne och Event in Skåne. Insamlingen av empiri har utförts genom kvalitativa telefonintervjuer samt en kvalitativ mailintervju, alla dessa baserades på ett icke-sannolikhetsurval gällande urvalet av respondenter. Samtliga intervjuer har haft öppna frågor och varit semistrukturerade. Intervjufrågorna har utformats utifrån studiens frågeställningar och har anpassats efter respektive respondent.

Företag sponsrar idrottsföreningar, kulturevenemang, humanitära organisationer samt forskning och utveckling för att exponera sitt varumärke, synas i positiva sammanhang, bygga relationer och skapa en image kring företaget. Medan sponsring som marknadsföringsverktyg hela tiden har utvecklats har dock regelverket kring sponsring och rätten att dra av den som en kostnad i företaget inte haft samma utveckling. Stockholms Handelskammare har de senaste åren arbetat aktivt med att förändra skattereglerna på området och kom under 2006 med ett förslag om förändrade regler för sponsring. Förslaget lämnades till regeringen för vidare hantering men hade i januari 2008 ännu inte resulterat i någon åtgärd. Stockholms Handelskammares arbete och påtryckningar på området har gjort oss intresserade av hur företag i praktiken hanterar de krångliga och oklara regler som anses föreligga.

Today, the TV vignette is considered an embellishment to a TV program, despite its broad audiences and unique appearance. We wanted to find out if the television vignette has some common features and conventions but also find out how it relates to genre.We used a case study where we analyzed ten vignettes that we chose from certain criteria. We used a model based on image analysis that we modified to fit our needs. The main parts of each model consisted semiotics, imagery, dramaturgy and sound.We also made a couple of interviews with people who are active or used to work with vignettes. As a result we discovered that the television vignettes consist of certain conventions and that the vignette will not be considered as an independent genre, until the public has accepted it.

Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur och varför kläder och designuppfattas annorlunda i det land där kläderna designas och eventuellttillverkas i förhållande till hur plaggen uppfattas i andra länder där desäljs. Metod: Då vårt ämne rör konsumenters subjektiva uppfattningar har vi använtoss av ett kvalitativt angreppssätt. Vi har intervjuat respondenter i tvåolika länder, Spanien och Sverige angående två klädesföretag, H&M ochZara, som har dessa två länder som hemland respektive utland. Vi hardärefter analyserat empirin genom att sätta den i ett teoretiskt perspektiv. Teoretiska perspektiv: Den teoretiska grunden i uppsatsen utgörs av tre teoriområden:Marknadsföringsteori ur ett företagsperspektiv, som tar upp faktorer hosföretagen som kan bidra till de skillnader konsumenterna upplever finnseller inte finns mellan klädkedjorna; Konsumentpsykologisk teori somökar förståelsen för de psykologiska processer hos konsumenterna sompåverkar hur företagen och deras marknadsföringsstrategier upplevs, ochimage skapas; Kulturrelaterad teori som försöker förklara den effektkulturskillnader får på konsumentbeteende, vilket är relevant då vi ämnarjämföra två länder med olika kulturer.

A film can attract all kinds of emotions and moods of the audience through its audiovisual communications and cinematic expression, in which music plays a significant role in both understanding and interpretation of film content.It is interesting to explore the musical significance and the emotional aspect of the film out of a media and communications perspective and visual communications perspective because it?s a subject that belongs to the communications of scientific discipline as film is a media text which is working both as communicative and as audio-visual medium with its expressive aspects.The purpose of this bachelor?s paper is to increase and deepen the understanding of music's function and significant role in context with its reinforcing sense of visual expression in film. More specifically, it aims to explore the musical value of the expressive aspect of the media text in form of film musical Les Misérables (2012), which has been transmedialised from the novel of the same name, referring to the sound, music and song in relation to the film's visual expression.The research questions are at the core of the essay study: "how is music used to reinforce the cinematic visual expression?" and "how can music signify the narrative and highlight the emotional aspect of the film?" The theoretical framework is based on some of the key scholars assumptions such as Michel Chion (1994) and Claudia Gorbman (1987), who share the same theoretical views that the soundtrack seems powerful when it expresses its participation in a scene?s emotional moods as the music follows the scene?s rhythm, the image?s flow and contributes emotional and musical codes of emotions and expressions. According to Chion sound and image interact together to tell a story where sound enrich the image with expressive and informative values.

The purpose of this essay is to examine how the adventure is accomplished as a project, and how this is vindicated, through science or by other means. The scientists of today are not seen as adventurers or heroes, at least not as they used to, but this image lives on as a sort of role or social institution, that can be used by anyone and in any purpose. These roles could be seen as a type of rules for the modern adventurer, and act both as a limit or a possibility. This essay compares two North Pole travelers, Ola Skinnarmo and Salomon August Andrée..

Feedback tools support electricity users within the Swedish residential sector to increase their knowledge of electricity and the electricity market as well as to become more aware of their electricity consumption, which in turn encourages a reduction and an increased flexibility of electricity use. The primary aim of this study is to identify and analyse how existing feedback tools can be improved, to ensure that they contribute efficiently to the achievement of the EU objectives congruent with a more sustainable energy system in 2030, emphasizing: greenhouse gas reduction, increased energy efficiency and an increased share of renewable energy. In order to reach the primary aim of this study, existing feedback tools have been identified and mapped and interviews with feedback tools providers have been conducted. The study is limited to three research areas: the practical functions of feedback tools, available technology and the use of feedback tools.The use of more efficient feedback tools will provide an increased success rate for energy management, which includes both behavioural changes and energy efficiency. According to the results from the interviews conducted for this study, an increased use and user frequency is important to utilise the energy management potential.

Den 8 september 2009 blev det klart att Umeå blir Europas kulturhuvudstad 2014. Detta var resultatet efter ett arbete som påbörjades redan 2005 då kommunfullmäktige i Umeå fattade beslutet att ansöka om titeln då detta var ett sätt att skapa marknadsföring för Umeå och lyfta dess kulturimage. På detta sätt skulle Umeå nå en ökad ekonomisk tillväxt och stolthet över staden. Att anordna ett kulturhuvudstadsår kan ge möjligheter för Umeå att synas på den lokala, regionala, nationella och internationella kartan. Detta förutsätter dock att detta evenemang får ett positivt och långsiktigt resultat.
